WILLIAMS, ISAAC - On Sunday, the 12th inst., at his residence in Newton township, Isaac Williams, in the 47th year of his age.　 Mr. Williams was born and has always resided in Newton township, where his good character, strict integrity, and moral worth have made for him a wide circle of friends.　 He was a prominent member of the Christian Church, and died as the humble Christian dies--with a full and unshaken faith in the promises of the Redeemer.　 He leaves a large and interesting family, who, in their bereavement, have the honest and heartfelt sympathies of their friends and neighbors.　 The Funeral sermon was preached on Monday, by the Rev. Dr. Furnas.
