Death of Capt. j. l.. DuFief-An
ill destiny placed him in his bed, whore he lay
suffering the infection of the Omnipo,ent Being
for nine wears with conientme and humility,
until Monday evening last with the departing
rays of light he passed from this sphere 'over
the river OF Death - lie was man of mod.
crate genius, and immoderate energy when he
was deprived of physical ability continuously
WINS his mind exercised; with alacrity would
he impart theoretical and practical knowledge
which he hid acquired through a Useful public
career. He filled several Office in this county
with honor and credit 20 himself and profit TO
the county. He was kind, atitclionate and
affable, esteemed highly by all with whom be
was associated.
The same hospitality Was extended by him
to all men alike, regardless of social standing.
1t was his utmost eradication 10 have an old
Acquaintance sit at his bedside and converse.
HIS long association with men, his courteous
demcanor always made him ''sour to none, and
sweet as Summer to all" In his demise the
community is afflicted with sorrow, and the
family to whom we tender our sincerest SYM
paihy in the hour of their gref, is afflicted
with sorrow and high sense Of bereavement.
His remains were inferred in the George
town cemetery on yesterday.
