W. Smyly of Catherine, and was killed at this place by Train Tuesday morning, Oct. 6th. We have heard none of the particulars of this sad accident, but extend to Mr. C. W. Smyly, brother of deceased, our sympathy, in this trying ordeal, brought about so unexpectedly, it is hard to give up our kin, even when wasted by disease, and we see no hope for them, but when in the prime of life, in robust and vigorous health, the blow comes with withering force, and catches us unprepared to realize fully its meaning, until we see our loved ones in deaths cold embrace, and know they have past into the Great Beyond, nothing there is left us, but patient resignation and the sympathy our friends and neighbors.
