Notes par Grace GREEN

Amelia Read (Mitchell nee Wilson) wrote in her journal that the death of Grace Terry caused a great melancholy to her husband and "he lost all interest in his property (extensive Mills) and suffer 'd them to deteriorate, neglected his family, and gave himself up to a life of indifference to everything.... She was a beautiful woman and her early and dreadful death cast a gloom over all the count y, for Mrs Terry was widely known and greatly beloved by all classes.

 

Her death was so sudden and horrible that I have heard those ladies who witnessed it would never visit the count y again. A large party were on a visit to them, and some of them, never having seen the Mills at work, proposed one morning going through them. All set out in jubilant spirits and were going through t he works, when, as they stood near some revolving machinery, a door was opened and a violent gust of wind took Mrs Terry's dress, a strong purple silk, onto a wheel- and before the order could be give n to reverse it, she was a mangled mess scarsely recognisable.

 

My mother said that she had been told that some of the ladies never recovered from the awful shock they received that d ay, and the poor bereaved husband felt that the sunshine was removed out of his life forever.

 

I think there were Cotton or Woollen Mills from what I have heard occasionally about the numbers of people employed and if I remember correctly they were disposed of soon after the dreadful catastrophe. My grandfather and his brothers Ralph and Edwd. were mere children. Grace was taken b y Aunt White while they were disposed of by other relatives, and prepared for there (sic) future positions in life"
