DIED
  Near Hanover Courthouse, Virginia, on the 19th of August, 1862, MARCENAS 
O'BRIEN, son of DR. JOHN and ELIZABETH O'BRIEN of Franklin County, North 
Carolina, aged 18 years and seven months.
  Following the promptings of his own generous feelings for his country's 
good, he promptly volunteered with two other brothers, in Company E, lst North 
Carolina Cavalry. He was much esteemed and beloved by his comrades. Although 
young, he was moral, virtuous, kind and obliging; almost without a fault, he 
was loved by all you knew him. He was an affectionate and doting son, whose 
loss will be deeply felt by his fond parents and numerouos relatives, but we 
mourn not as those without hope.
