Her brilliant talents and amiability of disposition, made her the favourite of all who knew her and her death is not only a subject of deep regret to her immediate relatives, but by her teachers and school-fellows she will long be remembered
June 7 1836 We copy the following Poem, from the “Ulster Times,” occasioned by the death of MISS JANE WOODS, daughter of MR. JAMES WOODS, of Glentimon, near this town, who was born Deaf and Dumb. Some time ago, she and her little brother, were sent to the Deaf and Dumb Institution in Belfast, where the boy took fever and recovered - she caught the infection and died. Being almost a stranger to the Institution, it must be very consoling to her parents to find that she was so much beloved in that seminary, and the very great attention paid to her by her tutors whilst on her death bed reflect the greatest credit on that Institution
August 2 1836 Died Monday last, at Ardkame, near Dunnemana, ELIZA, daughter of MR. WOODS, of same place
