Wed. Oct. 18 ,1826 North Carolina Journal
   DIED, in Morganton, on the 5th October instant, in the 25th year of his 
age, CAPT. HUGH TATE NEWLAND. In the death of this truly valuable young man, 
the county, in which he lived, has sustained an irreparable loss; for he was 
an example of honor, industry and conciliatory deportment. But the more 
laudable, liberal and Christian-like principles, which awaken the warmth of a 
bosom susceptible of the most honorable acts, were, in him eminently 
conspicious. He delighted most in the extension of firm friendship, and 
liberal assistance. He is said to have taken pleasure in doing himself injury 
to benefit a friend; but ere it was rewarded in friendly return, the 
irresistable summons of death commanded his eternal exit to that shore, "where 
the weary are at rest," and troubles no more. The deceased was a member of a 
military school in Morganton, who paid to his memory the honors of a military 
burial.
