CHARLES P. CULVER.
This afternoon train from the South brought to this city the remains of the late Charles P. Culver, the notice of whose death in Texas has already been made. A number of friends gathered at the depot and from thence proceeded to the late residence where the funeral services were held. Rev Mr Sawin conducted the services after the usual form. A quartet consisting of Mrs. Ruger, Mrs Sanderson, Mr D D Bennett and Mr John Wingate sang appropriate music. Messrs W H Tallman, E D Tallman, D Strunk, Mark Ripley, E T Foote and Dr L J Barrows served as bearers.
Mr. Culver was born in Chili, near Rochester, New York, in June, 1828, and was therefore in his fifty-first year. He has resided in this county for thirty-three years, and has during this long residence gained a large circle of acquaintances and many friends, who not only heartily sympathize with the wife and three children upon whom the blow falls the heaviest, but who also feel that the loss is one in which they too share. His death was not wholly unlooked for, though coming sooner than was expected. For nearly two years his health had been poor, and he has during that period traveled much of the time, in the hope that some climatic change might be invigorating. He beneficially spent several months in St. Paul, and one winter he tried the climate of northern Georgia. About the middle of last month he went to Texas, accompanied by his mother, who had been with him on all these journeys but the change was in vain, and soon the sad news flashed over the wires that he was not more.
Mr. Culver was a man of kindly spirit, and void of all ostentation. To all he was courteous and genial, ever inspired respect and esteem, but it was only his friends who really saw the wealth of character which he possessed, and who truly appreciated his good qualities of mind and heart. He was acquainted with many. He was known by few. He was a man of sterling integrity, a man who had a mind of his own, who was never ashamed to express his opinion, and however it might differ from the opinion of others, they never doubted that he was honest in his views. In all his dealings he was prompt and reliable. In fact there was much true manhood in him.
