Died at his residence in this vicinity on Tuesday, the 26th inst., after a protracted illness, Mr. William T. Rowland (senior), in the forty-second year of his age. Thus has fallen in the meridian of life a gentleman extensively known in this community ? one who has long been an active and useful citizen of our village, one whose uncommon share of the social virtues and habitual discharge of all the duties which spring from the
relations of man to man attracted the affectionate esteem of his numerous friends during his life, and in his death elicits emotions of unaffected sorrow and regret. Alas! it is not friendship alone that bewails this calamity; the anguish and tears of a devoted wife and family of children attend this affecting event.
They who have best known and appreciated the domestic virtues of the husband and father, who have been blessed with the fruits of his energetic exertions and provident solicitude for their welfare and whose affection and love have most tenderly reciprocated the feelings of the heart now forever stilled in death feel, more keenly than others can describe, the pangs of bitter sorrow now that his "days are passed" and his "purpose of life are broken off." Than the deceased few were so courteous in manners, so kind and obliging in disposition ; highly prizing whilst he won the approbation
and regard of his friends and neighbors.
The grateful remembrance of the estimable and endearing qualities of the departed, though it enhances our regard for his loss, bears with it also
a solace to our minds, which time will only increase, that he who possessed those qualities in this world and who delighted in their practical use will not be unrewarded with the joys of the next before that Being who esteems a benevolent service done to the least of his creatures as one rendered unto Himself, and gives the hope that "after life's fitful fever he sleeps well;" to have the deep repose of the grave which encloses him only broken by the dawning of that day which knows no night.
