Obituary

Wallace Spear, who we reported, some ten days ago, as being quite sick, at the residence of Col. J. M. Putnam, of this place, soon after rallied enough to ride to Ludlow. We now learn of his death in that place on Saturday afternoon at about six o’clock. His disease was consumption, and he has been a great sufferer for a long period. He was a very estimable gentleman, and his loss will be deeply felt by his bereaved mother and sister, and a large circle of relatives and friends.
