Old RiVeTman Dead.

The death of Alfred Osborne,
the aged father of Mrs. 2. Meek,
Jr.. occurred At the residence of
Mr Meek in the South Side of
the city last night near the hour
Of eight O'Clock, as a result of a
stroke of paralysis which the old
gentleman had received about
Two weeks ago and an account of
which was printed in the Tribune
at the time. -
The deceased was born in Nor
gan county, near West Liberty,
eighty seven years ago, but when
a child his father came to the Big
Sandy valley, having settled not
far from Paintsville johnson
county, Here the deceased grew
to mannood and early in life he
began to engage in the business
of push boating" which at that
earl: day was the only means of
transportation on the river With
this beginning as a waterman he
continued to spend his entire act
i've lie on the river and by this
means he became one of the most
widely known men along the Big
Sandy valley. II.
Early during the "fifties" the
first steamboat, the old Red
Buck" navigated the river and
Mr. Osborne had the distinction
of having had a berth on the boat.
From that time until ne grew so
old as to become inactive he was
continuously engaged in steam
boating and there is probably no
I'D citizen between this city and
Pikeville but what knew him
we'll.
In accordance to his expressed
will his remains will be taken to-
morrow morning on the o. and B.
S. train to Stafford Station, two
miles below Faintsville, where the
funeral and burial will take place.
