From the Richardson Memorial:145
    “An obituary notice appeared in the Concord, N. H., Gazette of Aug. 8, 1815, two weeks after Zerviah’s death, from which we extract the following:
    “‘To a vigorous and well-cultivated mind and a heart susceptible of every virtuous impression, Mrs. Colman added that fervent and rational piety so necessary in forming a complete character.  As an affectionate wife, a tender parent, a friend and a Christian, she is deeply lamented.  Though she had resided but a short time in the Society [Congregational in Boscawen], yet the deep impression which her virtues made on those who are capable of estimating true worth of character has hardly ever been exceeded.  She rested on Christ alone for salvation, and proved her faith by her works.  She bore her last painful illness with exemplary fortitude and resignation.’”
