DEATH OF AN OLD AND HIGHLY ESTEEMED
CITIZEN.

Major Benjamin Magrudor died
at his residence in this city last Sat
urday, the 18th inst, after an i'll
ness of about a week. 1t was his
misfortune to have a finger crushed
while repairing a gate. The finger
was afterwards amputated, but not
wishstanding this and despite all
medical aid and the careful atten-
tion.of relatives and friends he sank
under the afiliction and died OF
lock jaw.
Major Magruder was one among
our oldest citizens and had Il large
circle OF friends and acqnaintances.
His loss is a public calamity and a
sore affection to bereaved wife
and daughters. They have our
tenderest sympathies and that of
our entire community.
