hood, and as usual it hit the shining g
mark. On Sun day morning last the long
and severe sufferings from blood poison
ing eliminated in the death of Cove S.
Reynolds, who, since his childhood, has
/ with his mother resided with DIR. Wolfe,
ABOUT four miles from this place on the
Milton road. He was one Of the bright
est, most popular and successful young
men in this county, aud no one was more
widely known. He was a skilled machin-
ist and engineer, which he gained from
his own skill. For several years he has
run wheat thresher through the eastern
part of Sussex county, aud was such a
general favorite that many farmers would
employ no other machine than his; and
other machines wou Id pass by aud his
season reach we'll into the autumn. Dr.
Hearn was called from Philadelphia and
opened an abscess in his abdomen, but he
was so far gone that no medical skill
could save him - notwithstanding two
physicians were constantly by his side
His remains were laid at rest Tuesday D.
M. in the family plot at Reynolds church
yard, which bears the name of his father, !
He leaves a young wife, a mother, two |
sisters and one brother, and his godfather, !
DR.. Wolfe, to mourn his loss. The church |
was thronged, aud not one-half of his
friends could gain admittauce at his fun
eral. Rev. Mr.. Williams, the NJ P. pas
tor of Milton, preached an eloquent aud
impressive sermon. There is no man
who could possibly be missed from a COM
munity mote than our friend and favor
lite cousin, Cove Salisbury Reynolds.
