BRANCH OF HIS SON PETER. 1 45 Mississippi river during the war flooded his plantation and totally destroyed his splendid estate. He then moved to New Orleans and was appointed collector of the Port, under the Lincoln administration. He was an "old line Whig" in politics and a conscientious and ardent Union man during the war. He was a man of strong social feeling, and entertained sumptuously the friend visiting his luxurious home. He was devoted to his family, and an extravagant provider for their comfort and happiness.

He was for half a century engaged in mercantile life in Suffolk, Va., was a leading member of the Baptist church, was leader of the church choir, church clerk, deacon, and superintendent of the Sunday school. He was a good, honest and just man.

She d. Jan. 9, 1873, a devoted member of the Suffolk, Va., Baptist church, and a teacher in the Sunday school from early life to the time of her last sickness. Both passed away as quietly as the going out of a candle, without apparently a single pain on the last bed of sickness. In devotion to the memory and in contemplation of the virtues of loved ones who have passed to the other shore, led by the hand of the loving Father, where no storm ever beats, we may pause in meditation for we touch almost the borders of hallowed land.
