SEABROOK.-On the 14th of last Decem-
ber Mr.. Elmore Scott SeabrOOk, An engi-
neer on the f. r. & n. r. r., met his death
| while in the performance of his duty.
Rather than desert bis post when he saw
death imminent and make an effort to save
himself, he resolved to hazard his life IN
discharge of his trust.
The cause Of the calamity was owing to
defective condition OF the road at that
time. This worthy brother was esteemed
and beloved by all who knew him. He
was endowed by nature with high attri-
butes OF character and possessed those win
ming social qualities which most endear
men 10 each other Generous, brave and
true, he impressed these who knew him
we'll with the belief that he was to be
ranked among the best of men.
Human nature cannot conceive of no.
bier death than one who relinQuisheS his
ile in the performance of duty, when he
might have saved himself
Particularly dear was he to his aged par
en's whom he greatly loved.
His mother and brothers will never cease
to mourn his untimely fate! 1t would af-
ford pleasure TO the writer of these lines to
speak of him in the language deserved, to
whom he was well known and greatly be-
loved; but sufficient has been said to the
honor of his memory His sad death occa-
stoned sincere grief To his relatives in Caro-
lima as well, and they join in heart lelt SYM
pathy with his family in Florida.
Thus ended the life OF as gallant and true
a man as ever lived, such was the opinion
o. those who knew him best His bereaved
mother hopes TO meet her boy in that Home
where the weary find rest. RequieScat in
pace
