Death of Good and Useful Citizen-
Tribute of ReSpeCt-Funerdl SerUiceS.-
John r. CogbilI, ESQ.,. clerk Of the Hastings
Court, died Sunday night about 10 O'Clock at
his residence, on Bainbridge street between
Eighth and Ninth. The deceased had been
in declining health for about two years, and
his death, although not unexpected, was not
less sad. Soon after the County Court
was removed to this city Mr. Cogbill re-
moved hither from Chesterfield county.
When Mr.. A. C. Attkisson resigeed the po-
sition of deputy clerk he became deputy TO
the late lamented Nathan H. Cogbil, who
was clerk.
At Mr. CogbiIl's death Judge Cox ap-
pointed him clerk. When the city govern
ment was formed Judge Clopton, recogniZ-
ing the eminent abilities OF the deceased,
appointed him clerk of the Hastings Court
until July /, 1874, although he had been de-
feated by one vote In the Conservative con.
yention for the nomination. This was the
only instance in which the Judge failed to
ap Doint the nominee OF the convention to
fiji out the terms until July 1, 1874, when
the regular terms were by law to commence.
At the election in May Mr.. Cogblli was
elected clerk. In the discharge OF his duty
he gave general satisfaction to the Judge,
OIuCeTS OF lllC COuIl, CuC Ddl aui at " ho
were brought into contact with him. He
was member and secretary OF. the city
school board until compelled by i'll health to
resign the position. He was also at the time
he was stricken with illness secretary oi
Henderson Lodge, I. o. o. F.; OF Friend
ship Lodge, X. Of P; and Dale Lodge,
Knights OF Honor.
In private life he was az most. estimable
man, generous to fault, high-spirited,lb bul
quick to forgive wrong received or ask
pardon for any remembered wrong done. II
! is not exaggeration to say that he was de-
serYedly one Of the most popular men In
our city or the-county OF of-Chestertield, and
diving, leaves not.an enemy behind. Mr
Coebitl married some years since one o.
Manchester's loveliest and best young la
dies, the daughter Of eX-Councilman n. A
Eubank, to whom and her fatherless babes
the sympathies OF this community are eX
tended. 49, .-.-
The funeral will take place to-day at
O'Clock from the Baptist church. Notices
of the meetings of the various orders tt
which he was attached will be found else

inferred at Hollywood. He was learned in
his profession and fulfilled the promise he
gave when he graduated at the head of his
class at the University. He did not confine
his studies to his profession, however, but
was also distinguished forhis general schol.
arship. Recently appointed to q professor
ship in the Agricultural College OF MARY
land, he filled it only for two months, when
he was stricken down by the disease which,
after an illness of six weeks, proved fatal
to him. DR.. Briggs was for years the editor
Of an agricultural journal at Petersburg,

in this city. His family have the sympathy
