Obituaries.

Departed this life, on the 11th Oct., Mr. R. B. Hubbard Sr., aged 64 
years, and a citizen of Smith county, Texas.

This useful citizen and devoted christian, died in the full triumphs 
of Faith. His painful illness, was borne with calm resignation to the 
will of God, and his death was an eloquent tribute to the truth of 
the Christian Religion.

R. B. Hubbard Jun., and Eliza R. Hubbard,) aged 3 years.

"Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of 
such is the kingdom of Heaven.."

TYLER REPORTER, November 10, 1864, p. 2, c. 1

We are glad to see our friend, Col. R. B. Hubbard, at home again, but 
regret the sad bereavements, in the loss of his father and child, 
which occasions his present visit. The Col. is in good health, and 
speaks encouragingly of our cause and the condition of our armies.
