OBHTUAR v.

Died. at River Falls. Nov. Both, at the
residence of Lyman N. Powell, Dea- WILL
IAN POWELL, in the ed year of his age.
Mr. POWELL was a man of much more than
ordinary energy and ability. and his long
life. until near its close, was one of great ac
tivity. In early life he emigrated from Ver-
mont to Northern New York. and settled in
the town of Madrid, in st. Lawrence Co.
Here he exerted large and salutary influ-
ence upon society, being Jealous and liberal
in all moral and educational enterprises, and
for about forty years in succession he was
deacon in the Congregational Church. and
served the Lords Supper to its communicates.
The inviting fields of the West early enga-
ged his attention, and he was among the first
to invest in Western Illinois, and subsequent
ly in N Northwestern Wisconsin. A man of
fixed principles, strong prejudicies and in-
domitable will, he was rare type of the old
Puritan character. and of necessity partisan
in politics and religion.
For several years he has failed rapidly. and
during the year past has been almost totally
helpless, and most of the time quite uncon-
cious. Life was but existence, and like dy-
ing taper, its flame fiickered more and more
feebly, till it ceased altogether. and he enter
ed upon that rest which renaineth for the
people of God.

ton assembled for that purpose, it was handed
over to German printer, then a resident of
Richmond, to be Autographed. aud copies struck
off for distribution. From some cause or other
the nain one being that the printer had not
the material with which to do the work-the
document remained in his hands until Lieut.

hold The printer, who claims to have been a
Union man. came North, and gave the impOr-
tant paper to German friend in this city, who
