DEATH OF W. j. KIR KPATRICK.-It is our
painful duty, to-day, to record the death oil
very excellent young man, and one who
has long been associated with this Office
Willie kirkpatrick came to. this office, as q
carrier boy, about the time we started the
Daily paper. in July, 1854. He has been
connected with this Office since, without in
PERMISSION, making nearly eleven years of
uninterrupted employment in the same Office
first as carrier boy, next as apprentice,
and then IS journeyman. He was a remark
ably fine boy-prompt, courteous, kind, tenn
perate, Industrious, and of the strictest in
tegrity. He frequented no bad society and
rs he was model boy, he also became
model man, beloved and respected by all
who knew him.
His father dying when he was young, and
he being the Oldest of the family, he natural
ly took charge of its affairs. under the direc-
ton of his excellent mother. He was proud
of his sisters, deeply attached to ALL and
keenly alive to everything affecting the in
terests, happiness and comfort of all the fam
lily. He was a kind and loving brother who
exercised q fatherly care over them all.
To this office his loss will be deeply felt
He was our leading printer, and one on whom
we could always rely in any emergency
All were very much attached to him, and
none more SO than the editor of this paper,
who had known him longer and better than
any one else in the Office.
He was mason, and his funeral will be
conducted under the direction of that order,
of which he was an honored member
He was also secretary of the Democratic
Union Club, and, we doubt not the club will
pass appropriate resolutions in regard to the
decease of one of it's officers.
To his family it seems almost an irrepara-
BILE loss,-but we trust that they will OF
mourn as those who have no hope. They
should remember that
Earth mas
That Heaven cannot heal.
Placing their trust in God, they should try
t. bear up under their affection be consoled
with the idea that, the last day of his life,
he was conscious of all that was pass ing, and
that, with the Rev. Mr.. Gray, he Joined in
such religious services as were calculated to
obtain for bim the promised entrance to a
happier world, They should remember that
he has gone only a little while before them,
and so live that they can hope, at last to
meet him in better world. They have the
sympathies of all our people, and much to
reconcile them to this sad event
The evening Argus. [volume] (Rock Island, Ill.) 1861-1871, 1865-04-17

The meeting, at the court house, Saturday
eveDing,called by the mayor to make arrange
ments for the fanerel obsequies OF Mr. Lin
coin, was. we hear, largely attended. Hen.
Geo. w. Peasants was chairman, and Col.
Fl. B. Burgh, and G. E. Clacius secretaries.
The meeting was opened by prayer by the
Rev. Mr. Wilson,
A committee composed of Messrs- Mixter,
Hawley, Norris, Walsh and Swander was
appointed to prepare resolutions aud nomin-
ate a general committee of arrangements.
The secretaries have not furnished us the
proceedings, but we are told that speeches
were made by Messrs. Wilkinson, Gregg,
Webster, Mixter, and Norris, and perhaps
others. We are also told that some of the
remarks were very inappropriate to the occa.
sion, and calculated to excite animositees and
create mobs in our city. We hope we are
misinformed AT a funerol, or at a meeting
to make preparations for funeral, itwould
seem to be very inappropriate to take
course calculated to raise discussions. We
hope it is not SO. We are sure the people
would disapproye of any such course.
The speeches of Messrs Norris and Webster
are highly spoken of.

fuous Cough Balsam is one of the best pre-

claims for it, We have tried it during the
past week, aud found relief from most dis
tressing cough, 1t is prepared by DIR. Strick-
land, No East Fourth street, Cincinnati,
