Death of B. E. Thomas
Last Tuesday, we received intelligence of the death, in Florida, of B. E. Thomas of Stacyville. Mr. Thomas has been in feeble health for some time and about three weeks since, accompanied by his wife and child he sought the genial clime of Florida, expecting to regain his health from a change climate, but he had barely reached there when he was suddenly taken worse and after a sickness of only three days he passed to his home beyond the skies, and his body lies in that far off land that he had hoped would give him health and strength.
Mrs. Thomas accompanied by her child reached home on Thursday. They have the heartfelt sympathy of all who know them, in their sad and irreparable loss.
(Nov. 18, 1875.)
