John KOB died at the residence of his father Wednesday of last week, after an illness of about two weeks. He leaves a bride of only two weeks to mourn his early decease. John was most an exemplary young man. He had a good education and would have been a useful man had he lived. We deeply sympathize with his young wife and aged parents in their sad affliction.
