Mr.. Dan Turner Dead.

Poor Dan. Turner is dead. This piece
of news will be received with tinge or
sadness by nearly everybody in Richmond.
Mr. Turner was perhaps as generally
known here as any man in his circum-
stances In the city. He was for long
time bailff of the Police Court, and about
two years ago was elected keeper OF
Gamble still Park.
1t was while discharging his duties in
the latter capacity that he contracted the
deep cold which resulted In his death
yesterday morning at fl O'Clock. He was
80 years old. and was courageous and
honorable, and as kind-hearted as u
woman. Mr. Turner was almost univer-
sally liked for his fidelity 10 his friends.
There was nothing in his power that he
would not cheerfuly do for them. He
leaves a wife and six children. The fu-
neral will take place from the residence
OF the deceased on Cary street between
Third and Fourth, at O'Clock this after
noon. The remains will be inferred in
Hollywood cemetery.
