Obit published 15-Dec-1864.
Died. In the town of Pleasant Prairie, on the 22nd of November, 1864, after a protracted illness, Walter H. Blood, aged 49 years and 11 months.
The deceased was a native of Manlius, Onondaga County, New York; but removed to the west about eight years ago, and has since resided in this county.
For more than a year the slender thread of life had day by day been growing more slender, and at last snapped asunder and release a waiting spirit from its earthly torment. His friends long hoped for his restoration to health, but Consumption is a sublte enemy, never releasing his victims when he has once fixed himself upon him, until greater even, the Angel of Death claims him. Death came not as an enemy to him, but as one whose work was done and who was prepared to enter into an eternal rest, he calmly fell asleep.
He was over a kind husband and father; and in him the wife has last a companion, the son a counsellor, that earth can never supply. May God in his infinite mercy and wisdom turn hearts to Him, relying on His promises.
