DIED,

  At the same place [Barree Forge], on the 20th inst., David Garland, 
Sen., and father of David Garland, Jr. dec'd., aged about 54 years.
  The latter was an old and respectable citizen of Huntingdon county - 
well known as a man of most amiable character - a kind and affectionate 
Father and husband - always ready and willing to do a kind act.  He was 
a Forgeman by trade a workman of no ordinary character.  His loss will 
be lamented by many who know his good qualities.  In his sphere of life 
there are few such men. It may be truly said of him, that he was an 
"honest man," and the "noblest work of God."
VULCAN.
