Death of AsaheI Booth.

| DIED-At his residence in Salem town.
ship, in this county, on Sunday night last,
ASAHEL BOOTH, aged 70 years, IL months
and days.
The circumstances attending the death of
this aged and respected citizen truly mel
ancholy. On Thursday, the l lth inst, he went
out on his lands where he had a man employ
ed in Telling timber, and while looking on, as
he supposed, from safe position, tree that
was being chopped down, broke across the
kerf and fell in a different direction from what
was expected. The deceased, thinking he could
not escape the falling tree where he stood,
threw himself under an old log, the end of
which was few feet from the ground. Unfor-
tunately the log was too much decayed to
sustain the falling tree, and broke so as to let
much of the weight Of the tree and log come
upon the body of the deceased. He fingered
in partial unconsciousness until II O'Clock of
Sunday night, when death released him from
his sufferings.
The deceased was born near Hartford, in the
State of Connecticut. and emigrated to the
city Of Wheeling 81 years ago, where he was
for 25 years, engaged in the mercantile busi-
ness. He then removed to Clarington, in this
county, where he engaged i'll similar pursuits.
And it can be said of him. with great truth,
that in all his intercourse with his fellow men
he acted as Christian ami an honest man.
No man ever had more Of the confidence and
respect of the community in which he lived
than the deceased, and it would afford the
writer melancholy satisfaction ts be able to
speak of him his merits and many virtues
demand. But his worth Il citizen and y
neghbor may be told in few words: He was a
christian in whom there was no guile, and the
noblest work of God-an honest man. And
althOu gh, in the course of nature he could not
have remained with US long, yet it is matter
of great and atiliction that he was called
so suddenly to his long home: but we rejoice
that We can say that he has gone to his grave
full of years and full of honor-leaving behind
him a name that friends and neighbors will
delight to honor.
His aged companion, to whom he was united
over So years ago, still survives him, together
with many children, grand children and great
grand children, who will rise up and call him
blessed. J. R. NJ.
