BURIAL OF H. W. GUION, ESQ
Yesterday morning the remains of the late H. W. Guion, Esq., were escorted to the depot of the Carolina Central Railroad Company, by friends and his family. They were put on the train, under care of Messrs. W. C. Maxwell, Geo. F. Bason, J. L. Bailey, Jr., and R. P. Waring, and conveyed to Lincolnton, where they were met by a delegation of the bar of that town and a number of citizens. The remains were placed in a hearse and carried to the Episcopal Church where the lid of the coffin was taken off and the body exposed to the view of the public from about 11 o'clock to 2. At the named hour, Rev. Messrs. Wetmore and Branson read the burial service of the Episcopal Church, and this ended, the body was taken to the church yards and interred.
Thus has passed away a man whose purity of character was above suspicion; whose kindness of heart made him approachable to all, and whose wonderful genius, if the story of his acquirements in the realm of letters were faithfully written would astonish those who thought they knew him best.--Char. Observer.
