Mark Bennett of this county. 1 he ycung tree just blossoming, has been touched by the icy hand of death. The buddings of a mind of great promise have dropped from their stem. The bloom of a noble soul is fruit in Heaven. Promising in mind, exalted in moral sentiments, death has seldom taken so much to mourn for, or left so much for consolat ion. He is with God; who would wish him elsewhere? Cow.
