DEATH OF a. MORSE.

] Abner Morse died ut his residence
Gin this village, on Saturday, the It'll
sinst., of paralysis, at the age of 81
iyears, 6 months and 7 days. FOul
sYears ago the 23d day of March he suf
sfered paralytic stroke from the eff
sfects of which he never recovered
md a second stroke on Thursday
3avening, the 5th inst, was the imme.
late cause of his death. The severe
shock of four years ago rendered him
3incapable of pursuing his business av-
locations, though he rallied somewhat
md has been able to be about his
home and the village a greater portion
! If the time. From the nature of his
condition a recurrence of the shock
,eemed inevitable, and it came as stat
led, with fatal effect. A friend having
BAindly written an obituary, which APP
lpears in another column, embodying
HE leading incidents of Mr.. Morse's
fife but little remains to be said in an
Editorial way. He was among the
Earlier settlers of this village and was
Tor many years identified with its in
.terests, which he ever took pleasure
i'm promoting. His hospitality was
generous, and rs a neighbor he was
kind and obliging. Whether OF not
Ihe properly filled his allotted station
n life, an impartial and discriminate
ing public will judge, but we know
Ihim to have been a loving husband
and indulgent parent whose loss to the
wife, son and daughter can be realized
3only by those who have been similarly
,ffiicted.
