The aged wife of that kind and ever genial old friend of ours, Gen. D.C. Turrentine of Gadsden, is dead. For forty years they had lived as man and wife and all this time their lives were a benefaction to those among whom they dwelt. Gen. Turrentine is a pure, gentle old man whom to know is to love, and the death of his good wife will be mourned as much for him as for she that hath gone on before. Ere long he will join her, for he has almost accomplished the number of his days. When he shall set out on what will not be a pleasing journey to him, since the love of his early youth and the comfort of his latter days has passed on to the beautiful land; men may well say and they will say, "one has gone whose place cannot be filled." Gentle old friend, we mingle our tears with your!
