Notes:

Died, at Reynoldsville, on Sunday, Dec. 24th, Mr. Squire Robinson, in the 74th year of his age. Mr. Robinson was born in Putnam county, and moved to this county in 1832, where be spent the remainder of his days. In 1831 he married Patty Ann Leake, who died in 1873, he has since lived with his son, Martin Robinson, who did all in his power to make the declining years of his father as pleasant as possible. In 1850 Mr. Robinson experienced tbe religion of Christ, and joined himself to the Baptist Church at Burdett, since which time he has walked with God. He loved the church and her various institutions, and whenever health and other circumstances permitted, be always availed himself of the means of grace. Mr. Robinson had been enjoying apparent good health to the time of his death, and it is supposed to be heart disease that terminated his life. He was, at the time of his death, living with his son Martin, and went out on Christmas eve to do some chores. After he had been gone some time, and the family became confident: that there was something wrong, they went out and found that the days of his life, so keenly appreciative of the pure and good, that had filled his soul with love, trust, and patience, was extinguished on earth, to be revived forever in the realms of rest and painless peace. The funeral services which took place Tuesday the 26th inst, was largely attended by many of our citizens and the friend of the deceased. He was a good citizen, a faithful husband and a kind father. He was diligent in business, and "fervent in spirit serving the Lord," has been the inspiration of his life.

"Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord, yea, saith tbe Spirit, that they may rest from their labor." S.B.
