DIED.
l.. j. H.

On the 10Th of August, 1852, of chronic diarrhea,
DAVID Brown, of the 9th Ohio Regiment.
OBITuARY.-The following taken from letter
addressed to the father Of the subject of this notice,
by W. w. Much, Hospital Chaplain, will furnish
all that can be known respecting his death:
"DEAR SIR: This letter is to convey to you the
sad news of your loss in the death of David Brown,
Company H, 9th Ohio Volunteers, August 10,
1862, at o'clock A. NJ, Of chronic diarrhea. His
His death was so unexpected to all, we have but
few particulars of his to relate. He told me,
the last time ! saw him, he did not want anything
SO much as to go home. He said he teit that his
peace was made with God, and that he could trust
all to the keeping of Jesus Christ"
The following, also, from the captain of his COM
pany, bears honorable testimony TO his conduct as
a soldier
at the battle of Winchester, and subsequently
proved to my mind that he was endowed with true
courage. He was among the foremost, and stood
fearlessly out, defying the death dealing missiles
of the enemy. He did, indeed, display great
bravery on that battle field Besides, he was pos
sessed of kind disposition, and with good grace
and alacrity obeyed all the commands from his
superior officers"
This is high praise. 1t is enough. Who could
have done more or better than heH To know this,
that son has been faithful to the high trust COM
mitted to him in every duty, as soldier, and that
he died with firm trust in the Savior of sinners,
should take away all the bitterness of bereavement

From these Affections arise many of the ailings

trouble is what they want. We recommend DR..
