INDEXED


 /Died at Princeton, Dallas county, Ark. on Fri day, 18th July, 1861, DEWITT CLINTON HARLEY, aged 2l years and months. l-V The subject of this notice with his twin brefhet had after long absence paid a visit to their pa rents previous to joining the 9th regiment of Ar kansas volunteers now at Pocahontas, where they had two brothers in Capt. Cameron's company of rlheman. Clinton had been in camp for several weeks and had contracted the disease which brought him to an untimely grave Very few young men have ever lived who was so entirely commanded the esteem and confidence of his fellows, of con- handing personal appearance, he combined all the virtues that make the character of those who are beloved and respected. The death of one so young, so manly, so gentle, kind, and of such athletic and healthy appearance, is blow so unexpected, that gloom is cast over the hearts of all those who knew him but to love and respect him. But the decrees of God are inscrutibe and his parents and friends who mourn their rreparable loss, have the consolation, that he came home to die sur rounded by his doting father, mother, sisters and brothers. He is gone to that bourne from whence no traveller has returned Verify in the midst of life we are in death Let us therefore bear in mind that this is the inevitable fate of all.
 n-n5---7 B. c. H. /DIED-Near Pocahoodn5taass,, Randolph county, Ark, about the 10th of July, 1861, w P. LINDSEY aged 22 years, volunteer in Capt. Smiths com. pany of Dixie Grays.
 MT. Lindsey was a native of Jefferson county, Arkansas-respected and beloved by all who knew him. In his death the company have lost one of its brightest ornaments-the State brave and gal lant soldier, and his bereft mother dutiful and obedient son. The memory of his many virtues can never be obliterated. Peace to his ashes.
