Death - It pains us to announce the death on Friday last, of our fellow citizen and friend, Le Grand Olmsted, of Monona, Clayton Co.

The deceased was born in Vermont; he was one of the pioneers of Clayton County. He leaves a large connection to mourn his death.

The Masonic order, of which he was a worthy member, followed the remains of their brother to the grave on Sunday last.
