MAY 10th, 1850.
Again the ruthless hand of death has
been i'm our midst and swept from our
distracted breasts a friend that loved, a
friend that blessed. On last Saturday

yesterday ! went specially TO see him,
hearing that he was no better, and found
that the sands of life had well nigh run
out. staid with him until the spirit
took its flight. He suffered great deal
and bore his affections with patience.
This morning about = O'clock uncle
Franklin Wallace said. "ReligiOn is the
chief concern of mortals here below"
! asked him il he felt that religion cOm-
forted him now. 80, yes, I do; il it
was not for that ! would be in poor
fix. have "A hope that reaches beyond
this vale Of tears, but have not let my
God grant that every one that reads
these lines, the great Importance of re-
ligion learn and its sovereign virtue
know. This county has lost good cit
izen, the neighbOrhOOd u good neighbor,
the wife a good husband, the children a
kind and affectiOnate father. His foot
steps and voice will be heard no more;
his friendly hand will not be extended
with pleasant smile any more. The
family have our heartfelt sympathy.
