Rutland Herald. DEATHS. SMITH - In Brandon on the 3rd ult. of typhoid fever, John Smith, aged 82 years. Thus, one by one, the ancient lights are disappearing. In the death of this venerable man, the community has been deprived of one of its most respected citizens, and the church of which he had long been a member, one of its brightest ornaments. He died, as he lived, rich in the sublimity of a living faith, and respected and beloved by his fellow man. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
