Mr. Shi-nhard was blessed wth a quk and capacious mind. There are few of Us who do net feel proud of our honored con nections and the intellectual distinctions w hich have marked our families. Perhaps there is no man in the state wV could look back upon his ancestoral Kindred with more satisfaction th'in could Mr. Shepard.
