Death of David Wiley-Rev. VIM.

Editor Press and Banner:
Since my last letter there has been
very little to disturb the quiet or mar
the happiness of the peopls Of this VII
cinity, until this morning. We are sad
to inform you that our esteemed citizen,
David Wiley, Post Master at Wide
mans, was killed. This was serious
accident. Mr.. Wiley, as he had often
done, was trying to kindle fire by burst
ing u cap on his gun. He thought he
would place some powder and cotton
down so as to have spark ignite as the
cap was burst. His wife told him per.
haps he had better examine to gee If the
gun were loaded. He put his mouth to
the muzzle of the gun, and it was i'm
mediately discharged. The entire con-
tents were lodged in his mouth. He
died instantly. Mr.. Wiley leaves u
family of a wife and some eight or nine
children. He was a valuable citizen, q
quiet neighbor. We are panied to hear
of his death, and deeply sympathize
with the family in this their sad be-
reavement.
Ihave attended three days preaching
at our church at Long Cane, and heard
q series of some of the best sermons l
ever heard, delivered by our friend and
wise counsellor, Rev. w. L. Presley,
of Due West. I do not remember of
ever hearing better sermons, or 80 much
good preaching. Mr. P, is one Of the
best reasoners ever heard, and think
if any one could go to sleep under the
sound of his voice surely he has taken
an opiate, and should be entitled to q
bed. ..... ...... ..,
Protracted meeting is going on at Mt.
Tabor, near Dorn's Mine. This is q
Methodist Church. One of my friends
tells me he visited the church OH Sab.
bath, and, as it was the first time he
ever was in shouting community, he
seemed very much frightend. They are
some on shouting. ' .
There will be Tax Union meeting
at Liberty Church OH the sth Saturday.
Gen. MCGOWAN is expected to speak.
Your humble servant will blow out no
longer.
..... Very respectfully,
KINCH.
