DIED. on Tuesday last, at his residence near
this Borough, Doct. JAMES TILToN, in the 18th
year of his age.
Doctor TILToN was born of a respectable family
in the county of Kent, the first of January, 1745
and studied the medical science under the late DR..
Ridgeley. At the commencement of the revolu.
onary war, he entered the service of his country
regimental surgeon, in the old Delaware Regiment.
His assiduity and skill soon obtained him promo
ton to the hospital department, in which he conti
nued in the arduous and faithful discharge of his
duty, until peace had established the independence
of his country Satisfied with the consciousness
of having faithfully performed his part in this event.
u struggle, DR. T. upon this event, retired to his
tive state and resumed the practice OF his profession
His fellow citizens repeatedly testified their sense of
his worth, by eectirg him to the state legislature
and to the old congress in which stations his con-
duct was marked by that ardent patriotism and stern
integrity which had distinguished his previous ca
reer and were the characteristics of his life AT the
commencement of the late war, his revolutionary
services and professional skill pointed him out to
president Madison as suitable person to superin-
tend the medical department OF the army ; and he
was appointed physician and surgeon general of the
United States. In this important Office he contnu
ed during the war in the course of which, he vi.
sed the frontiers and personally inspected the con-
dition of the army service which, combined with
the infrmies of age. laid the foundation of disor-
ders from the consequences of which his life was
only preserved at the time, by distressing and
painful operation.
Those who knew him we'll, can never forget the
sincere and humble piety, the Roman probity and
ardent love of country which were the ruling prin-
ciples of his life. He was liberal and sincere pro-
fessor Of the Christian religion-its precepts light
ed his path and guided his steps through life and
in death, supported his hopes of happy futury.
His patriotism, like his religion, transformations
and npretendng-un,anted by sel6shness, his
countrys good its only aim to the latest period
of his existence, the interest he felt in its welfare.
suffered no abatement:-he had contemplated its
career from the dawn of that revolution in which
he acted faithful part; and in ell its vcissitudes he
isympathized when it incurred and rejoiced when it
prospered. His only ambition for his country was,
that it should be free and happy and for himself,
he aspired to higher title than that which he had
most Justly and conscientiously eaIned-an honest
man.
