Description:Excerpt from In Memoriam: Benjamin Franklin Perry, Ex-Govenor of South Carolina, Born November 20, 1805, Died December 3, 1886There has been a general feeling in Greenville that ex-governor B. F. Perry would not recover from the illness with which he has been suffering during the past month. His age and the serious char acter of his malady forbade hope that his life would be much pro longed. Nevertheless, there was a general expression of surprise mingled with the involuntary one of sorrow when the fact of his death became known on yesterday.He died at half past one o'clock yesterday morning. During the early part of the night he was restless and complained of pains in his chest, and Mrs. Perry, Mrs Beattie, the governor's daughter, and Representative W. H. Perry, his eldest. Son, and a colored woman - a former slave whose devotion to the governor since her freedom gives eloquent testimony to the gentleness with which the master who never quailed before any opposing force used his power over his bondwoman, and whose presence as nurse was at her own request - remained at his bedside. Later the governor became easier and Mrs. Beattie and Colonel Perry retired. At about half past one the nurse noticed that the governor's breathing was hard and called Mrs. Perry's attention to it. He turned on his right side without assistance and the nurse hastily went out to call Mrs. Beattie and Colonel Perry. During her absence the governor made a gurgling sound and stopped breathing instantly, giving 'no indication of suffering and without the least struggle. When death finally came it was as sudden as a stroke of lightning.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
