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

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.
