barn to look after the horses, and fell
dead. His death was occasioued by heart
difficulty. The deceased had been act
lively and extensively engaged in the hote'
business; was widely known by the trav'
cling public, and especially by summer
tourists. He was whole souled, free
hearted man and will long be missed, not
