OBITUARY.
ALBERT G. JOHNSON was born in Central Kentucky September 15th, 1804, removed to Missouri in young manhood, spent about ten years in Lewis county and thirty years in Marion county. He was three times married. His third wife—formerly Mrs. Merrell, to whom he was married only a little more that a year ago—yet lives, as do six of his children. Mr. Johnson was for more than thirty years a worthy member of the Methodist Church, and by his neighbors was recognized as a good man and a valuable citizen. After an illness of three weeks he died at his late residence in Marion county, Mo., on Saturday the 13th inst. His illness was of such a character as to enable him, much of the time, to sit up. He was all the time impressed with the conviction that death would soon ensue. He talked calmly of the coming event; expressed his willingness to depart; spoke hopefully and joyfully of an inheritance beyond the grave, and died trusting in the Redeemer.
