FOSTER, JUDGE WILLIAM
N. - Death's Doings - Twice within the
past eight days have the sable wings of the messenger of death, cast a deep
shadow over the horizon of our town, enshrouding it in gloom. Within that
time two of our prominent citizens have passed away. Judge William N.
Foster, died on Friday afternoon of last week, and Col. B. F. Rosson, on
Tuesday forenoon of this week. Neither of these persons had passed beyond
the years of usefulness, but the constitutions of both had become premature
impaired and both have died at an age when, had they enjoyed vigorous
health, they would have been prepared to do the most good. We shall attempt
no eulogy of either as that task will doubtless be performed by other and
abler friends. We shall only add that both were good and useful men and
much esteemed citizens, such as no community can lose without experiencing a
keen sense of bereavement.
