DEATH OF Mr.. JOHN w. PADGETT.-
This old, well-known and justly es-
teelned citizen died at his home on
north Fairfax street yesterday evening
after long sickness. For several
wears the deceased had been a mere
wreck of his former self, the decrepi-
tude OF years making its mark upon
him, and though until n short time ago
he managed to move about the neigh
borhood of his residence, il was pain
fully apparent to all who met him that
the beginning of the end had set in,
aud that his decease was but the matter
OF very short time. Mr.. Padgett WAS
probably one of the best known OF our
citizens, and his acquaintance extended
from the navigable waters OF the Poto-
luac as far as old ocean, he having con
Quoted the business Of sailmaker here
for nearly half Il century, learning that
trade under Sanford 4 Middleton and,
with The late Mr.. Henry Pollard, sue
ceeding that firm. The deceased was Il
mild-mannered and agreeable gentle
man, who made fast friends of all who
ever bad dealings or intercourse with
him. and his death is naturally re-
GREETED. He was for many years 4
member of Andrew Jackson Lodge OF
Nasons. He was in the 10Th year OF his

those who went on the trip We're many
ladies. Numbers OF people repaired 10
the southern section OF the city in or
der to witness what was supposed to De
a repetition OF The fire OF 1882. But all
were agreeably disappointed, as IL
stead of the furniture factory II pile OF
shiugles was found to be burning. the
flash of lightning referred to above hay
ing struck tree and ran down It's
trunk into the shingles.
