Mr. Covett Sanders and General Hitchcock died last week in Hancock county.  
The former was well-known in this county as one of its oldest citizens.  The 
latter was an invalid when he came to the county a few years since.  He died 
at the residence of his brother-in-law Mr. Nichols on the place purchased of 
Colonel T.J. Smith.  General Hitchcock held a commission in the United States 
army during the war, and at one time he was commissioner for the exchange of 
prisoners.  Besides his military distinction, he has attained some reputation 
as a writer, several books having been published from his pen.
