Lieut.. Eli A. Hart and his worthy wife,

Sunday the 18th. Edgar was conveyed
to the same tomb, aud there side by side

all that is earthly of these precious pratt

all parents household, that the occur

sadness over our village. Rev. Mr.. Pow

man IN the funeral rites incident to the
solemn occasion. The bereaved parents
have the sympathy of all who knew them.
Some eight years ago, while Lieut..
Hart was in the service of the Union
Army, their first born was, by the same
disease, taken from them by death. Yer

be full.
