The announcement made this morning
OF the death of Francis II. Pierpont.
which occurred last night, will cause
universal regret throughout the state Of
West Virginia. particularly TO the older
citizens who have survived the stirring
events OF history with which he was so
closely Identified. who followed his lead.
and TO those who were associated with
him, and shared with him the honors OF
meeting successfully n great crisis. In
his case and In theirs 1t was an unusual
crisis. for by their acts q new and great
commonwealth was created to stand FOR
national unity out OF a part Of their ma
tive state. and has proved itself worthy
Of their efforts.
With the passing away Of this aged
veteran, after long and honorable ca
reer. there Is no departure Of the MEN,
DRY of his deeds, of his usefulness to his
fellow men. Of his exemplary character.
OF the great service he performed and
to accomplish which he was ready to
give his life. Governor Plerpont has
gone to Join some OF his associates in n
history-maklng period who have pre-
coded him, one in particular, with whom
he was especially associated, and whom
we laid to rest in Wheeling but few
weeks since. Others are still with us.
