Oldest white citizen of our county-ha.
just passed from amongst US. James How.
ard is dead. He died at the residence Of
his son-in-law. Lewis II. leigh, Esq, Of
this district on Sunday morning last after
short illness. He was born, June the
Oath. 1882. and was. within \ few months,
Of the anniversary of his Goth birthday.
Both BY tradition and by well-authentica.
ted evidence are we warranted in stating
that this prolonged earthly life. from be.
ginning to ending. was passed modestly,
uprightly and usefully. and the prcciou.
hope is therefore cherished. that he Ia.
