                 Dead.

Mr. Wm. L. Wilson died yesterday
afternoon, aged 92 years. He will
be buried to-day in his family bury-
ing ground, by the side of his wife.
He has been helpless for months, and
death was to him a cheerful visitor.
Uncle Billy, as he was called, was
ready to go. He was a faithful
Christian, a fact which leaves noth-
Ing to be said.
