CRAINE - We are sorry to record the death of Mr. Lemon Craine who died 
in St. Louis, on last Friday, 6th inst., in the 22d year of his age. 
His remains were brought to this place, by his father, on Monday, and 
were interred on Tuesday, in the Presbyterian cemetery. He was 
afflicted with sickness for a long time, which he bore, without 
repining. He was quite a favorite in this, his native home, and our 
citizens will learn with sorrow of his death.

LEMON CRAINE - A nephew of Col. John Lemon, went to Texas some few 
months since, seeking to recover his health, but that fell destroyer, 
consumption, had fastened its dread grasp on his vitals.  Finding that 
he was not benefited by the change, he started to return home, but it 
was too late; he died in St. Louis, on the 6th inst.  His body was 
brought home, on Monday the 9th inst., and on Tuesday he was interred 
in the Presbyterian cemetery.  So passed away one who was universally 
beloved, aged only 22 years.  Lemon Craine died in St. Louis, Mo., 
Friday 6th inst.
