Died of congestion of the brain, March 30th, after an illness of 6 days, Isaac Newton Murray, youngest son of Mr. N. Murray, of this village.
Deceased was a young man of promise being in appearance, previous to the sickness which terminated his life, a perfect specimen of health and manly vigor. His hopes were high; for the future presented to him a bright and glowing picture: But, alas! while yet entering upon the voyage of life, he was overtaken by death, and the pulse which beat with warmth and animation is now cold and still.
Moral, amiable, and of a lively temperament, he endeared himself to all who knew him; but, in the family circle, where his virtues were best known, his vacant chair will long continue to disturb the fountains of grief, which shall bedew his early grave.
