Obituary.:

ROBERT B. MILLER departed this life, near
Windsor, on Saturday, 9th July. While return
ing home he was thrown from his sulky, and
dragged some distance, receiving injuries, the
effects of which proved fatal.
A friend of his, who knew him well, desires to
say of him, that although he died young, he lived
long enough to obtain firm hold on the conf
dence and esteem of the community. He was
energetic, honorable, true to his promises, re-
spectful to age, manly in his bearing, and take
him altogether, one of the most promising young
men in BERTHE county. Our people of all classes
are deeply greved at the untimely death of one
whose future was SO promising as his.
His father, Frederick C. Miller, and his mother,
brothers, and sisters can only, by the lapse
of time, recover from the deep sorrow in which
they are thrown. w.
