Avery, Rosa Miller
A few days since, we read with sorrow and reverence of the death in Chicago, of one of the most beautiful, intelligent and grand women of the present century, Mrs. Rosa Miller Avery.
She had been from girlhood an able advocate of human liberty; liberty for man and woman. Long and ardently she gave her help for the freedom of the slave, and with the broadening growth of soul, believed that American liberty was meant for women as well as men.
For years her facile pen has urged the creed of a broad human love, sanctioned and taught by divine law; that man and woman stood equal before God, and humane inequality is not in harmony with the divine ruling
As a wife and mother, she lived a life of tenderest and highest companionship. As a writer, she has given to the world the finest conception of earthly duty.
She was a sister of Mrs. S, A. Perrigo, of this city, and while on a visit here some years ago, it was our privilege to meet her.
And as we remember the beautiful face, lovely through the inspiration of a grand son, we feel a sorrow that, will dwell with us in memory.
