in his life had been pioneer preacher,
mayor, druggist and deputy sheriff,
and had several times been instrument
al in quelling disturbances which had
arisen from religious differences ex-
listing between the two local churches,
the pastor used the following words:
"Our brother is in the cold ground,
no more dangler on LIES tide. 1 can
see his painting spirit sigh among the
chaste stars, contemplating the failure
of his acts to make clean our hearts, and
methinks 1 see his noble lineaments
imprinted on every rock, tree and fence
in this county, with whose history he is
so closely connected. During the re-
cent controversies of our people, 1 have
heard him declare, while his beard de-
scending swept his bosom, that he

and his face resumed its natural airy,
artless look. AS 1 know, he could pain
nobody"
The grafton, as it appeared the fol-

him declare, while his beer descending

differences of sex might be ended. and,
while he was mare, frequently made
