DIED

At his residence in this place, on the 2nd inst., at 7 o’clock, p.m., ASA GREEN, Esq., formerly of Brattleborough, Vermont, in his 58th year, after an illness of somewhat more than three weeks. His illness he bore with Christian meekness and patience; and when in the course of its alarming symptoms developed themselves, his self-possession and composure remained undisturbed. He constantly professed his sole reliance to be, on the merits of Christ his savior, his sole wish to be, that he, may glorify God either by his life, or his death, as He might see fit to appoint, and all his desire, that God would dispose of him according to his good pleasure. He died in peace and almost without a struggle.
