THE LATE DIR. HUNTER, OF FAIRFAX. The
death of DR.. James Hunter, of Fairfax county,
was announced in yesterdays Gazette, in an
obituary notice. After that notice was in type
we received from j friend in Fairfax, NJ, a
tribute to the memory of the deceased, in which
it is said:
"The county has lost one of her most intel
ligeut upright and valuable citizens. He was
formerly and for many years a member OF her
Court. AS magistrate be was impartial and
lust, as an adviser he was true and reliable as a
neighbor he was kind and good; as a friend he
was sincere and constant; as physician he was
ever obedient to the call Of the afflicted and
to the poor he was liberal and charitable. The
place Of such man cannot we'll be supplied.
He leaves devoted wife, and an only sister,
with numerous relatives and friends, who with
sorrowing hearts mourn his death.
