Dr. Evans was a man universally esteemed by all who knew him. For many years he was a very successful practitioner in medicine, enjoying a large circle of friends and a lucrative practice, and only when age and the infirmities incident thereto prevented, did he desist from the active duties of his profession. He has been gradually failing for some months, and at last he sank to rest full of years and full of honors. The Doctors Evans of this city, are sons of the deceased, and we tender to them the sympathy of this community. We ask some one who is familiar with the history of the deceased, to furnish us with a fitting notice of his life, character and death. Funeral tomorrow, 10 a.m., at M.E. Church, Smithton.
