DIED December l2ih, in Montgomery conn
~, after lingering illness. Mr.. SAND
FORD ROUZEE, in the end year of his age.
In early life the deceased was a sufferer,
and rose from his bed, manned by the struggle
with disease. For the dast three years his
hold on life was feeble and when al last death
came, it seemed as a friendly messenger sent
10 free The spirit from its broken tenement,
and from world which had lost its attrac-
tons. Affection sometimes refines the soul,
and puts it to a task Of preparing for better
world. Let us hope that in this case it
wrought out such result, and thus was
blessing in disguise. " SO teach us to num-
Der our days that we may apply our hearts
