NuIIon Ienth of n Good Man.
Yesterday morning about nine
o'clock. Mr. Milaa B Leslie while
standing on the sidewalk in front
of Dr. Lilly's office and conversing
with him. suddenly fell to the
ground and expired before any as
eistance could be , rendered. His
death is supposed to have been
caused byapoplexy or sudden heart
failure.
Mr. Leslie was a quiet and unas
uming gentleman wno enjoyeu
i i
the respect and confidence of all
who knew him. He had thousands
of friends : he had ilo enemies. He
knew the path of duty and he fol
lowed it without question. It wa3
M
enough for him to manage his own
affairs well: Nobody ever heard
him make invidious criticism of his
neighbors. To him the fear of God
was surely the beginning of wisdom.
And he brought his children up by
the same huh standard. His heart
was full of that broad charity
which vaunteth not itself and does
not make haste to judge the faults
and weaknesses of frail human na
ture. He was a man of deeds, no
of words, and on his gravestone may
be truthfully written that simples
and grandest of all epitaphs. "Here
lies an honest man."
