Henry VIII.

RIPPoN, w. VA, Jan, 10, 1900.
Dear Mr.. Haines. -Sorrow and sad
ness have once more been thrown over
this community by visit from deaths
messenger, who has claimed our Young
friend, Henry Wilt, as its victim. He
was taken, on the 5th instant, to Balti-
more for the purpose of having a very
dangerous surgical operation performed.
and on leaving his home he told his
mother, of whom he was a favorite not
to weep for him, that he would soon re-
turn, with hope of recovery. Some
months ago he had been operated mon
for the same trouble, but death was fact
claiming him, and he and his physician
decided against the protests of his father
and mother that it was necessary that he
should undergo this painful operation
again. So on the 10th instant. at 10 a.
m, he was placed on the operating table
at St. JosePh's Hospital in Baltimore.
The physicians found it impossible to re-
move the diseased organ through the in
cision made, it having enlarged to eight
times its normal size. At p. m. our
friend, Henry, died from exhaustion.
Throughout his suffering he was en-
dowed with indomitable courage, and
requested his father not to rent his farm
until he returned, that he was sure he
would soon be all right. But alas, poor
fellow, he never returned, except in the
torn OF dust, and he has gone where we
all must soon follow.
The funeral was preached by Rev. Mr..
Milbourne at his fathers residence. In
terrnent IN Edge-Hill Cemetery.
BY a FRIEND.
