The Star and Enterprise, Newville, PA
Sat., Sep. 11, 1869
On the 3rd inst., at the residence of his father-in-law, J. R. Brewster, Esq., in this place, Alfred L. Irwin, in the 26th year of his age.
The deceased had been married not quite three months. He took a violent cold on the day of his wedding, and suffered more or less with it till the last few weeks of his life; it then assumed the symptoms of pulmonary consumption. Personally known to us, in him we could vouch for an exemplary character. Diligent in business he was a model in many respects for others; honorable in all things he was an example worthy of emulation. A member of the United Presbyterian Church, he doubtless died with a full hope of atonement through that Saviour whose cause he espoused, and to whom he had looked for mercy for a time previous to his dissolution.
