Excerpt from The Young Disciple, or a Memoir of Anzonetta R. Peters The only striking peculiarities that marked her early years, now recollected by her friends, were quickness of temper, uncommon sprightliness of mind, great physical activity, and strong affections.

This activity invariably at tracted the notice of strangers it was of so restless and ceaseless a character, that some have supposed it induced disease, and was remotely the cause of her early and premature death.
