p Our old soldier friend George
Hamilton at last succumbed to the
inevitable at his home on West
Hunter street Friday evening OF
last week. He walked to the Falls
Mil after dinner on that day, but
claimed to be feeling badly on his
return. In few hours a severe
pain in the heart carried him away
from his earthly pilgrimage. The
old gentleman was u peculiar
character upon our streets, a. con-
stant patron Of the post-office

his pension. The funeral service
was conducted from his. home by
