GTDEArH OF REV. Fourcu.-.

GEDEATH OF REV Fourcu.--Our
community was shocked on Thursday last,
the llth inst, at the death of Rev. w. K
Foutch, the Methodist Episcopal Minister
in charge in this place.
He died of Typhoid fever, after some ten
days illness, communicated to him from a
Virginia refugee, who died here short
time ago, and whom Mr.. f. was visiting for
the purpose of administering to him the
consultations of religion.
The impressive funeral services we're con-
Quoted by Rev. Deans, Presiding Elder, as
sisted by Rev. Vail, of Bridgeport, Rev.
Campbell, Of St. Clairsville, Rev. Scott, of
Barnesville, and Rev. Mckee, of East
Richland, in the NJ. Il. Church, on the
18th, in the presence Of large concourse
Of citizens Of the town and vicinity.
Rev. Foutch was born in Somerset Coun-
ty, Pennsylvania, in April, 1886. became
member of Church at IL years of age, and
minister in 1858. 't
He was an accurate schelar, and a highly
gifted and promising young man, and was
rapidly advancing to position in the front
rank of his profession, when thus stricken
down in the midst of his labors.
We have, perhaps never had minister
in St. Clairsville who had so thoroughly
succeeded in winning the esteem and regard
of our citizens of all classes, parties and
sects. With the exception of the recent
unkind and uncalled for attack upon him
and the other clergymen of tho Town, by
abe editor Of one Of our County papers, for
daring to follow the scriptural injunction to
preach the gospel to every creature, "
= nothing occurred during his brief sojourn
among us to mar the tranquility of soul
with which he, as true and untiring SOL
dier Of the cross, was faithfully and earnest
ly fulfilling his mission. Though Of delicate
health and feeble frame, he'was ever at the
post Of duty, and in the sick chamber, in
the pulpit, and in, ,social intercourse with
his fellow men, all his efforts were directed
to the single object ofwinning souls to Christ,
and be finally sacrificed his life in the ef-
fort to smooth the pathway Of humble
stranger to the grave. t...
He has left devoted wife and two in.
teresting children to mourn his early death,
with the consOling assurance, however, that
he has "gone up higher" They have the
profound sympathy Of our whole communi-
ty in their irreparable loss.

learn that Union speaker in Monroe Coun-

the town of Graysville, in Monroe County,
recently, to make speech, and while speak

outrageousy abused. Col. Richardson, Of
the 25th Ohio, afterwards went to the same
town to make speech, and took loaded
revolver with him, and before commencing
his speech gave the crowd fair warning that
if he was assaulted by any enc he would
shoot him dead on the spot. 1t is needless
to say that the Copperhead towards didn''
