ANOTHER OLD CITIZEN GoNE.-Mr. David
Buxton, the worthy and honest map, the pion-
eer Of book binding in this city, died June LIST
at his residence on Monument street, after a
long and severe illness which be patiently
bore, at the age of IS years and six months
Notwithstanding Mr. Buxtcn has not for some
years been actively engaged at his trade, YET
he has always attended to the binding of the
sem-annual volumes of the Press, the same as
he did for the old Portland Gazette and Daily
advertiser. We shall miss his venerable form,
as he used to frequent the office to get papers
to make out his regular files. He was one of
the most kind hearted men among us and his
death will be mourned with sincerity by all
who knew him. His funeral will take place
Friday afternoon.
