The decease of WILLIAM BARROWS, ESQ., OF
North Yarmouth. noticed in the last Gazette and
brief sketch Of his character would have been then
given, If the paper had not been fully occupied with
other matter and partly stricken off The deceased
was the second son of Deacon William BaTrows of He
bron. Aware ilt the general practice Of publish
ing ndiscrninate eulosius of those who have deceas-
cd, is calculated to diminish the interest which might
otherwise be taken in obituary notices shall for
bear to attempt such deneaton of the character of
the deceased all, who knew his distinguished
It's, may reasonably anticipate and his particular
friends and relatives may Justly claim due bis tai
ents and virtues. The death of such man is great
loss to the community, and the society of which he
was member, and 10 his immediate friends and rela-
hves, calamity, which the consolat ons of the chris
fIg1fH 1ilfr
struggled through the requisite sudes encountering in
ms course, the perplexities incident limited funds

tce in 1872 and Immediately settled and commenced

pursue his profession until his feeble health prevented
ms further attention to business although from his
childhood OF feeble constitution the mind OF the deceas-
ed was strong and vigorous and in his childhood evnc-
ed those powers Of discrimination and attention rarely
discovered IN more mature years naturally mild in his
temper and of cheerful, b0oyant and perseverng spr-
