Mr.. John 4. Blake.

Mr.. John 4. Blake, of 247 Null
berry street, and the local agent of
the Metropolitan Life Insurance
Company, died very suddenly at
his home at 3 o'clock this morning
after an illness extending over a
period of only two days. Mr..
Blake became i'll on Sunday and
grew rapidly worse. His condi-
ton reached an alarming stage
last night and at the hour mention
ed he passed away.
John A. Blake was born in Ber-
ryville, Va, 90 years ago and was
educated in the schools of that city,
afterwards teaching school there.
During the civil war he served in
the Confederate army. Before the
war broke out, however, he was
one of the party that captured
John Brown. Mr.. Blake was one
of the few survivors that played
such an important part in interior
inc with John Browns raid. He
saw Brown hanged at Charles
Town and of the few who guarded
the coffin containing the body OF
the Yankee leader.
Much of Mr.. Blake's time was
spent in teaching. At various
times he taught school in Cumber-
land, Keyser and Berryville, Civ
ing up that occupation to 90 into
the planning milling business al
Charles Town.
About five years ago he located
in Clarksburg, embarking in the
insurance business in which he
achieved marked success. His un
timely demise causes deep regre
among his friends and business
associates.
He is survived by a wife anC

stepped into the yard after an
armful of wood. In few moments
she heard one of the older children
