Death or '. W. Bernard.

Valentine W. Bernard ;'amiliarly
known as "VOil,y''). a resident OF
this county since 1870. died at his resi-.
dencs on Commercial street ut Z O'Clock
last evening. His death was quite sud.
den, and so totally unexpected, that the
announcement was not nj FIRST credited.
The cad news was soon confirmed. how
ever, and he having been n resident of
this place almost continusly since his
marriage hero several years ago, his
sudden taking OF was the subject OF
conversation among citiz us generally.
Within the past two years lie had several
quite severe attacks of sickness, since
which his health has been by no means
good, but not tho least danger of his
life had been apprehsnded, up 10 within
a-few moments Of his dissolution. He
had been laid up in his room with a
srrRincd ankle some two or three
weeks. from the effects Of which he was
slowly recovering.
Al Parker, an old Tuscarora friend,
arrived here yesterday. aud calling upon
Bernard last evening. found him re-
clining upon q lounge in his room. as
usual, and after some conversation,
Parker asked him il he would like some
oysters, to which he replied that he
would. Parker then went out and on
returning q few minutes later. found
him unconscious. and physician was
hastily summoned, but before he could
arrive. the spirit had passed away,
leaving its earthly tabernacle to the
mourn ingwife and friends, who, since his
d!sablement. had rendered him every
attention the exigoucies Of the case
seemed to require.
Tho cad news Of the death Of his
brother was a. once telegraphsd to
G. L. Bernard, at Carliu, who arrived
here by the first train from the West,
and took charge of the preparations for
the funeral.
Deceased came from Missouri, where
his parents resided, to Mineral Hill, in
1870, aud was with his uncle Il. II.
Bernard; and tso years later accom-
panied the latter on his removal to this
place.
He was q native Of Adams County,
Illinois, and at the time Of his death
was in the 37th year Of his age.
The funeral will take place from his
late residence a! IL o'clock A, A.. to-
morrow.
