while the other will 90 across the country

Hughes, one of the foremost OF Wheeling's
business men, died at his residencs on
South Front street, Island, in the sixty
third year Of his age. Deceased had been
slightly unwell for some two weeks past,

the unexpected development of spoplectic
symptoms which speedily resulted fatally.

clothing business and being interested in
The Bsnwood iron works and the National
Bank of West Virginia, holding mem

goods trade, with Thomas johnson. the
Ilace of business being on The east side OF
Main street, between Seventh and Eighth.
This establishment was carried on for
about three yesrs, when Mr.. Hughes asso
cis,ed himself with Mr.. Leach in the mer'
chant tailoring business, on Water street
Mr.. Leach dying, Mr.. Hughes continued
to manage the business, in partnership
with Mrs Leach, removing to the corner
of Twelfth and Water streets, where
the firm continued until 1865. 10 tina,
year Mr. Hughes purchased Mrs Leach 8
interest in the business, and conducted il
himself. In 1873. owing to the failing
health of his wife, Mr.. Hughes removed to
Baltimore, where he resided until 1884, en-
paging in business In that city, but sill
continuing the Wheeling establishment
In 1884 he returned to Wheeling taking
I'D his residence on the Island, where he
resided until his death.
MIR. Hughes was twice married. Hi!
first marriage was in 1864, to Miss Bes
sic McE!doWney, of Baltimore, one con be
ing the resnls Of the union. His wife died
