fond and attentive husband, kind and most ex
cellent father. and sincere and steady friend.
His private character will bear the closest scruti

Gus. kind, and affable--a very tit woman to
shame the ladies' of the proHi.ate noh'l''y

that they live in such a state of retirement; Tor

benefit Of good examples constantly before their
