(Frontier Times)
We sorrowfully announce the death of the eldest son of Mr. R. DANIELL of Sidbury, after a trying and painful illness of only three days. We are imperfectly acquainted with the cause of this painful bereavement, which is said to have been occasioned by a fall from his horse, in which the spine was injured. It is impossible to commend too highly the amiable disposition and honourable character of the deceased. He was exemplary in all the relations of life in which he had yet been tried, and his loss will fall not only very heavily upon his family, but will be severely felt by all who were honoured by his friendship or had the pleasure of his acquaintance. He was yet in the morning of his life, being only 26 years old. He died on Friday. His funeral was to take place yesterday. We deeply sympathise with Mr. DANIELL and the bereaved family in the mournful calamity with which it has pleased Divine Providence to afflict them.
