   Another Revolutionary Soldier Gone
   
   Mr. Benjamin Parr, the subject of this notice was born in
   Morris County, New Jersey on the 1st day of September 1760
   and died at the residence of his son in Carrollton, Carroll County,
   Georgia on the 22nd day of December last. Mr. Parr was well known in
   this community as an honest, upright man. He had been for many years
   an orderly member of the Baptist Church in which fellowship he lived
   and death sounded the retreat from the troubles and sorrows of this
   world, and his spirit took its flight to the brighter worlds above. He
   has left a numerous train of relatives and friends to mourn his
   departure, but we trust our loss is his eternal gain.
