Death of John Tucker.

Seldom has an announcement of
death resulted more saddening 10
this community than did that of
Mr., John Tucker, made yesterday
morning. 1t was unexpected and
sudden, from the fact that he was
on duty at p. Allen IL Sons gro
Gerry store last Monday. Tuesday,
however, he felt indisposed aud re-
NAMED home, and visit from the
doctor revealed that he was afflicted
with pleurisy Medical treatment
relieved this aud on Thursday he
was regarded as betterlng; but that
evening a fainting spell was imme.
diately succeeded by delerium and
brain fever, SO fatal in form as to
battle the best Of medical skill,
hourly applied throughout the night.
He was death siezed; no available
power could check the ebb of life,
and at 10 o'clock Friday morning
the spirit Of John Tucker took its
flight. He was in the prime Of
manhood, being about 40 years Of
age, How sad. Every individual
in the community feels depressed.
Deceased was beloved by everyone;
so genial, mild and kind; all shared
in his affabIe manner and true
Christian spirit.
In 1877 he was united in marriage
to Miss Eliza Allen, only daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. +. Allen, Sr. Two
little sons are the result Of the hap
py union, and they with their
mother sustain an irreparable loss.
