Edwards, a young man possessed of a genius but rarely excited and endowed with almost every requisite that would make this life desirable but ere he arrived at his zenith, he has been snatched from this world by that never failing disease of death, the consumption. The moral and intellectual character of this youth were indeed exemplary. Words will fall short of portraying the loss which his friends and society have incurred by the death on such a choice gem. It is a lamentable fact that the three only sons of this lady have fallen victims to the same disease.
