DEATH OF CAPT. T. NJ. JONES.

DEATH OF CAPT. T. M. JONES. -
As we pen this tribute to one. who
so lately mingled with US upon our
streets, at our homes and in our
places of business, Capt. T. NJ.
Jones, our thoughts are saddened
by the fact that he now lies cold in
death, Capt. T. NJ. Jones died in
this city on last Monday morning,
having long been a sufferer from
Consumption.
As people we claimed for him
the reputation of being one among
our best citizens, and in all public
as well as private trusts, he was
never found wanting. True to his
friends, he gathered around him
the wise and the good of the COM
munity, and it was a labor of love
with him to confer upon others all
the good that he could. He has
left a vacant place in our midst
that cannot be easily filed, but we
have the consolation of knowing
that his memory will ever remain
with ia.
To tAe heraavad ones we extend
our heartfelt synIpathies, in this,
their hour OF sad bereavement.
