J. Cassey was detained at home yesterday and today by the serious illness of his only daughter, Mrs. Walker, who is not expected to live.

LATER. - Mrs. Walker, who we mentioned elsewhere in this issue as being very low, not expected to live, died yesterday afternoon. Her death was quite a shock to her many friends in Carter, who offer their sincere condolence to her relatives in this, their darkest hour. Death comes to everyone, and is no respecter of persons.
