DEATH of a Good Citizen
Mr. MASON HINDS, aged about 45 died at Charleston
on Saturday evening last. Mr. Hinds was well known in this county. He served a term as Deputy Sheriff.
He was a good citizen and liked by all that knew him. We did not learn the cause of his death- in fact we did not know he
was sick- He was in Cleveland a few weeks ago and looked as if
he was sound and healthy. Mr. Hinds had taken considerable interest in the success of our paper, and was the cause of getting
many subscribers in the eighth district.
ACCIDENT
Mr. W.H. CURRY's little child about four months old fell in the fire last Friday, and
was burned very badly about the face and eyes. It is doubtful if it
ever recovers. Its mother had
stepped to the door for a second, to see something about the yard when the accident occurred.

DEATH MEIGS
COUNTY
Mr. MARION BARNETT died the 16th [October 1875]instant near Brittsville after an illness
of some two weeks at the age of eighteen. Mr. BARNETT was a nice young man just in the bloom
of youth and leaves a father, mother, four brothers, and a large circle
of friends to mourn his loss.
The little child of Mr. W.H. CURRY, that was badly burned a few weeks ago, died last
Thursday from the effect of the burn. It was only about five months old.
It is reported in town Monday that Rev. M.H.B. BURKET would probably not live through
the night. However, we are glad to learn at this writing (Tuesday evening) that he is much better, and that
there are some hopes of his recovery.
