Meath orM. IL. Anced. ESQ.


Yesterday afternoon, about three
O'Clock, II. II. Sneed, Esq, expired at
his residence in this city. The deceased
had been i'll for some time, yet his
friends entertained the hope that he
would recover.
Mr.. Sneed was native of Georgia,
was at one time Methodist minister,
and had been practising law, however,
for five or six years in this section OF
the state. About year ago he lost
his wife, most estimable lady. He
leaves two sons, who are quite young.
Mr.. Sneed was u lawyer of decided
talent, with a vein of energy, howev-
er, and good fellowship. His success
at the bar here was won against con-
siderable odds, but his powers as a
speaker and pleader We're equal to any
expert, and atLhe time of his death he
enjoyed good practice, and was re-
cognized as one ofthe ablest of theDal-
las bar. His faults We're more errors
of the head than the heart he was q
warm friend, n good hater, and gener-
ons with his money. Misfortune had
embittered him, hut could not hide
many generous impulses and fine
traits of character. Had he lived he
would have made perhaps greater
strides to fortune and fame.
