It was Wm. B. Harkness, brother of our fellow citizen, Judge J. W. Harkness. Mr. Wm. M. Harkness had been suffering untold pain for some time with a large cancer on one side of his face. He was confined to his bed from the feebleness of his health, for several days, until yesterday, we are informed that he bled to death from the cancer, and was dead before ay one discovered that he was dying. He was 73 years of age. Peach to his ashes.
