Annapolis, (in Maryland) March 11. [Report of two venerable
matrons, in Prince George's county, who lived to see their
fifth generation]
But this does not quite come up to what happen'd in England,
about a century since, where an old woman lived to see her
sixth generation, on which the following lines were then
wrote:
The mother said, go tell my child
That her girl must her daughter tell,
She must now mourn that lately smil'd,
Her daughter's little babe's not well.
