-Unwelcome as the information may
be, our death record would be incomplete
without referring TO the decease of Mr..

expired on Saturday last at the advanced
age of 90 years. Mr.. Wilson was widely
known, and many years ago was promi-
nently identified with the history of this
county. So long ago as the trial of James
Monks for murder, Mr.. Wilson's name
appears among those of the twelve jurors
who convicted that notorious criminal.
Several of his sons and daughters who
survive him are respected residents of this
county, among whom may be mentioned
Mrs. Joseph Crotzer, at whose residence,
near Centre Hall, her father died, and
