Departed this life August 22, 1869, Henry P. Husted, in the 76th year of his age. Brother Husted was born, I learn, in New York, March 10, 1794; lived a while in Peru; moved to Ohio in about 1820 or 1821, and thence to Fulton county, Ill., in 1836, where he resided until the time of his decease. At an early age he made a profession of religion and joined the Regular Baptist church, and from that time to the hour of his departure, for a period of over fifty years, he sustained an unblemished character as a Christian and a citizen. No reproach was ever brought on the cause he professed and loved by any of his deportment. He was for many years, and up to the time of his death, connected with the Mt. Zion church, where he had the love and confidence of all who were connected with him. His disease appeared to be an affection of the heart, which he bore with resignation, and calmly met death, looking to and trusting his risen Redeemer. He left six children and many friends to feel and realize their loss. (Copied from "Signs of the Times," 1869, Vol. 37, page 251
