The Hannibal Journal, Thursday, June 29, 1848
A worthy man has passed away. -- The Republican of the 24th comes to us with 
one of its colums clothed in the habiliments of mourning for our old 
Preceptor, Edward Charless, Esq., who deaprted this life on the 22d inst., at 
his residence in the neighborhood of St. Louis, in the 50th year of his age.  
We were an apprentice in the office of the old "Louisiana Gazette," at the 
time Mr. Charless purchased that establishment of Mr. J. C. Cummings, and in 
1822, as such, struck the first "Missouri Republican."  It will this be 
perceived that we had known him long, and had opportunity to know him 
intimately -- and we but follow the dictates of a heart won to a lasting 
friendship by his kindness and virtues, when we say he was the Printer's 
friend, always liberal and generous, and a man whose loss will be deplored by 
all who knew him.
