POtOSi. OF Respect.

Since the commencement of the new
year death has be busily at work in our
place taking TO his cold and sullen
realms some of our oldest and most re-
spected citizens.
HENRY BRAKE, of the German settle
ment, who had dwelt among us over
forty years, highly respected as man
of integrity and worth, after few days
illness, passed to his reward in the I'M
known land.
WILLIAM BowLEs, man long famil-
lar in our presence also passed away.
He was native of Virginia, came to
the mines at an early day. pursuing the
avocation of miner with all its uncer-
tain chances and hardships. He was
possessed of kind heart and many gen.
erous qualities and we shall miss him
from our midst.
George ADAM KERN, another aged
man has reared his little family among
us and resided with us for over forty
years, has gone the way of all the living.
He was a mechanic following the occu-
patton of wagon-maker, and by in
dustry and frugal habits was enabled to
live comfortably and leave a small
store for his bereaved widow. Mr..
Kern was an excellent man, kind
neighbor and good citizen and his
death is much deplored by all
Scarcely had the awful shadow lifted
its raven wings from the doorsill of this
household, when it returned again with
darker folds bringing keener sorrow
and more abiding gloom to this strick-
en- family. William the second son,
who, during the fathers illness, was
Frustrated in an adjoining room by
severe attack of typhoid fever, relin-
pushed life's hold, silently passes out to
the world unknown. Well may we ex-
claim-"Insatiate archer, Could not
one suffice?' William was about 25
years OF age, ayoung man of quiet ways
and unobtrusive manners and much be-
loved by all his young companions and
friends. He was just entering upon
those years of usefulness and promise.
when ambition rules the heart and hope
spans the future with her brightest
colors, and when the young and strong
are thus suddenly and untimelv called
to relinquish earth and its unfulfilled
promises, we feel that there is nothing
in this life to love OF worthy of our
strife. The brothers and the aged
mother have the deepest sympathy of
the community in this their double sor-
row.
John Neaville after a weeks con-
finement to his bed, suffered from q

Jacob Nenfang has also been kept in
