Mr.. King. 1t says: H was quiet and resign

waited him. Shortly before six o clock on
Monday evening, while a few friends were
sitting around his bedside, the only ones he
"oldu allow inhis sick roon, he suddenly remark
ed that he was dying. The watchers rose to
their feet. under some excitement, when the
Colonel said--"Be still make no noise-let
me die quietly" He refused to have the bal
ance of his household notified of his diving
condition. His physician came in and examined
him. The Colonel said to him-'.Doctor l
am dying. 1t seems to me as though l shall
never get through with it. | am dying very
hard. Take the pillows from under MY head"
The pillows were accordingly taken from under
his head; but affording no relief. the Doctor
turned him from his back on his side, when
he died IN a moment.
