The startling intelligence of the sud-
den death Of DR.. Robertson, of West
Elkton, this county, reached us last Sun
day. He died on Saturday afternoon of
heart disease, after an illness of only a
few hours, produced by nervous excite
ment over an operation about to be per-
formed on his wife for the removal of a
large tumor, that has been affecting her
for several years. His funeral sermon
was preached in West Rikton on Tues
day afternoon, and his remains taken to
Oxford for interment On Wednesday,
He was about 3S years OF age, and was a
gentleman around whom clustered many
noble and excellent qualities, and was
highly respected and loved throughout
the entire neighborhood in which he re-
sided. He leaves a wife in a precarious
condition, and two small children, to
grieye over the loss of an endeared nus
band and a kind and affectionate father.

The funeral of Marshal Ryan, who was
shot ON Monday evening, 9th ult., by
Ellis, took place Thursday morning the
30th, at s o'clock, at the Church of Wish
tation in Eaton, at which the Pastor,
Rev. Father Grace officiated. Requiem
high mass was said, after which Father
Grace delivered an able and impressive
sermon OIL the many virtues and good
qualities of the deceased as a citizen and
an official. The church was crowded be-
yond its capacity, while on the outside
stood a large and respectable assembly
that could not gain admittance. The
city Council attended in a body the flu
neral, and as the procession marched
through the corporation, the city Hall
and Court House bells we're tolled in re-
spect of the deceased, which added much
to the sadness of the occasion. The
corpse was buried in the Catholic ceme-
terry near Richmond, Ind, at which place
it vas taken charge of by the police force
of that city. Marshal Ryan was born in
Roscommon, Ireland, was about 81 years
of age at the time of his tragic death,
and had resided in Eaton about thirty
two years. He filled the position of Mar.
shall of our city for about sixteen years,
and done it we'll and faithfully. He
leaves q young wife, his third in mar
rage, four grown up daughters and two
+ young sons to grieve over his unfortunate
hearted and generous to a fault, and NJ
other citizen has ever passed from among

There is a growing feeling in healthy
communities against journals which
make it their special object to minister
to a perverted taste by seeking out and
serving up in a seductive form disgust
ing and licentious revelations. There is
good reason to believe that the clean
newspaper is mort highly priced to-day
than it was four or five years ago. 1t is
safe to predict that, as people in all ranks
of life who protect their own, at least,
from contamination, become more con-
scious of the pernicious influence, of a
certain class of journals, called enter
prising, because they are ambitious te
serve up dirty scandals, they will be
careful to see that the journals they per
init to be read in the family circle are
the class thatsnever forget the proprie
ties of life.
