OBITUARY.

3 Died, at his homo, at Berryville in Clarke
co Va, on the 9th ultimo, VIM. DEAHL, in
the 10th year of his age.
Mr. Deahl was born st Martinsburg, but for
fifty years has been a resident of Berryville.-
He early connected himself with the Masonic
order, and at the time of his death was one OF
the Oldest Masons in Virginia. He was man
of rare merit, and in his unobtrusivc but useful
life gained the respect and esteem Of q commu,
nifty which gives It's confidence only to sterling
worth. In manners dignifed yet courteous he
disdained even the semblance of adulation, and
so bore himself that his daily life was a stand
ing rebuke to the parasite and time-server. 1t
is useless to say that such q man was true to his
people in the time of peril, and carried to the
grave that which he valued more than goods or
life, his incorrup tible integrity. He saw gath
cred around his declining years that crown Of
CID age. his children's childreh;, and when
gathered TO his fathers, left behind him to be
forever green in their memories. the precious
legacy of good name, which is better than
great riches .
