Died: In Barlow township, Washington Co., O., Dec. 22d, Mr. Cyrus Eddy, in the 88th year of his age. Father Eddy was a native of Providence, Rhode Island. In 1806, he emigrated to Ohio, with his family, and settled in the vicinity of Marietta. In 1810, in consequence of feeble health, he returned to his native State, but again in 1820 he came again to this State, where he has resided in the counties of Washington and Morgan up to the time of his death. Although a member of no particular church, he was a strict observer of the "Golden Rule," and lived truly an exemplary and Christian life. He leaves a large circle of children, and numerous friends (for who that knew him were not his friends?) to mourn his loss. He lived and enjoyed life, to ripe old age, and his society will be much missed and lamented in the sphere in which he moved. Signed: H.E.V., dated Dec. 27, 1862, Vincent.
