EARLE, Amanda BUCHANAN - (from the Fayetteville Sentinel) The many friends of Rev. F.R. Earle, not only in Washington County, but throughout the State, will regret to hear of the death of his wife which occurred at Boonsboro on Wednesday morning last. She had long been an invalid but her death was none the less a deep sorrow to all who knew her. Mrs. Earle was a daughter of Rev. John Buchanan, one of the pioneers of Washington County, and was married to Major Earle about the close of the war. She leaves, besides her devoted husband, two sons and two daughters, all grown. She was a noble, Christian woman, whose memory will long live in the community where her home was cast. The Sentinel extends sympathy to the bereaved family.
