James Powell Obituary
Died – In this town on Monday morning, the 3rd inst. Mr. James Powell, of pulmonary consumption, in the 27th year of his age.
It is with no ordinary feeling that we are called upon to record the above case of mortality. Mr. P. had, for some years prior to his death, been engaged in the mercantile business, and had, by an upright and honest course, endeared himself to all who knew him. He has long been a worthy, and acceptable member of the Christian Church, and his deep piety has ever stood unquestioned. At the noon tide of life, in the midst of his usefulness he has been taken from us. How applicable the words of the inspired writer. “All flesh is as grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field.”
