He is missed as a kind and affectionate husband, a tender parent, sincere friend, humane and generous benefactor and an useful member of society. In short those who esteem virtue and reagard true merit, must sincerely regret the loss of him, as one who exhibited to the world a laudable example of these striking qualifications. ‘Laus illi debedtur et a me Gratia major.' Hor."
