The Star
3 Dec 1829

Died

At the residence of his mother in this vicinity on the 25th ultimo of 
consumption, Mr. Augustine Tucker, son of Joseph Tucker, deceased. He had long 
been a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church; he bore his severe affliction 
with Christian fortitude and died in full assurance of a blissful immortality. 
He tenderly exhorted his irreligious friends to prepare for death and a few 
moments before he expired, exultingly remarked to one of his brothers, who 
stood near his bed-side, that the pains and anguish of this life would soon be 
over, and that he possessed within his breast a principle which would hear him 
triumphantly through the gates of death. He then called his mother, told her 
he was going, took an affectionate leave and breathed his last without a 
struggle or a groan. He has left a mother and five brothers, with numerous 
friends and relatives, to mourn their irreparable loss.
