(1) Died, on the 8th inst. In the 41st year of his age, HENRY WALKER, Esq. long a resident of Jasper county. The cause which produced this lamentable event originated in a fall which he received from his horse. In the death of this worthy man, society has sustained no ordinary loss. Amongst the many virtues which adorn the human character, charity, benevolence and humanity held deservedly the highest rank; these were conspicuous amongst the many virtues which characterized Mr. Walker, and endeared him, to his relatives and friends. For several years of his life, he was entrusted by his countrymen with different public trusts, which he discharged with honor to them and credit to himself. In the relations of husband and father, he was kind, tender and affectionate. He has left an anguished widow, and a numerous offspring, together with many relations and friends, to deplore in grief their heart-rendering loss. He is gone amidst the gush of sorrow from their eyes, to receive that recompense of reward which is the meed of the truly upright and benevolent.
