We learn from Pittsylvania that there is now living in that
county one Mrs. Smith, in the 109th year of her age,
formerly of James City county; -- She lately danced at a
wedding, and sung a song of thirteen verses distinctly,
which she learnt at nine years old.  She mounts a horse with
great agility, goes to mill, fords a river 200 yards broad,
and labours for subsistence.
