Page ======== a diagram of the Kirk Yard enclosure with original obituaries DIED On Monday last, Mrs. Ann Anderson, the amiable consort of David Anderson, Esq. Of this town. In the death of this truly valuable woman, society has sustained a real loss. Mrs. Anderson possessed in a very high degree, every quality which could render her interesting, as a Wife, Mother, and Friend. But the Ruthless hand of Death hath torn her From us. In this however, we recognize The Finger of God. "The Lord gave, & The Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord" The loss to Husband, Children & Friends, has been great: but we are conforted from the consideration that what was our loss has been her incalculable gain. She had long perceived the approach of "the last Enemy," and had long, but particularly, in her dying exercises, given the most satisfactory evidence that she was prepared to meet him. On Tuesday last, her remains, accompanied by a very large assemblage of sympathizing friends, were committed to the silent grave. "Thanks be to God, who giveth us victory, through our Lord Jesus Christ" DIED In this town, yesterday morning, David Anderson, Esq., in the 78th year of his age. Mr. A was one of the oldest and most respectable inhabitants of this town: a member of the Presbyterian Church for a period beyond the recollection of most of its citizens, a man without reproach, a nobleman of nature’s own stamp; to become a good Christian, an honest man, and a perfect gentleman, it will only be necessary to follow his example. DIED In this town, on 9th inst., our venerable and much esteemed citizen David Anderson, Esq. In the 77th year of his age. He was born in Scotland, in the town of Sterling, where he removed at an early age to this country and place. He was for many years, among the most enterprising business men of this place, engaged in extensive mercantile transactions; and when, by unforeseen events, a reverse in his circumstances took place, and so maintained the integrity of his character, as to escape the censure so commonly cast upon those, who, like him, become involved in pecuniary embarrassment. Few men have lived so universally respected and esteemed in the community where they resided. Venerable in years, grave in his deportment, cheerful in society, and consistent as well as uniform in his walk as a Christian, he goes down to his grave as a "shock of corn fully ripe" leaving behind him an example that will not soon be forgotten; and while his venerable form is no more seen among us, none will doubt that a good man has gone to his rest. From the first organization of the Presbyterian Church in this place, Mr. Anderson has been a ruling elder, which office he has sustained with dignity, at all times, by his prudent counsel and efficient action in maintaining a wholesome discipline, proving his attachment to the church, and his desire to promote its welfare. Being a firm believer in the doctrines of the Gospel as contained in the formularies of the Presbyterian Church, he maintained a strict attendance upon the worship of God in his place, and while he regarded with becoming charity all other denominations, he never swerved from his own, never regarded with indifference its interests or concern.

Anderson late Clerk of the Board of County Commissioners, has since our last meeting been removed from time to eternity.
