==========================

DEATH of H. M. STOKES.

Horace M. Stokes, Esq., died at his residence in Lebanon, on Thursday the 12th
inst., after a brief illness. He had long been a citizen of Lebanon, and had
been honored by an appointment to an important office (Clerk of the Court of
Warren County) before his majority, which he afterward held by vote of the
people. The office of Grand High Priest, and subsequently the office of Grand
Master, of the Masonic Fraternity for the State of Ohio, had been repeatedly
conferred upon him, in both of which he was greatly esteemed and respected. He
was a kind father and husband, a good neighbor, and an honest man. The disease
of which he died was typhoid fever, though it was probably complicated with
other diseases of a chronic character to which he was subject.. - Hamilton
