DIED - Of consumption, in this city, April 16th, after a lingering illness of thee months, Mr. David Welch, aged 46 years.
A good man has gone from among us. He expressed his readiness to die, and a few minutes before he expired, said to his son, who lingered near him: "It is all bright ahead," and sweetly fell asleep in Jesus.
"Unveil thy bosom faithful tomb -
Take this new treasure to thy trust,
And give these sacred relics, room
To slumber in the silent dust!"~Weekly North Iowa Times, Wednesday, April 22 , 1863; pg 2
