DEATH OF R. M. VAUGHAN.
Died at his residence in this city,
on Tuesday last, Mr. Richard m!
Vaughan, aged thirty-eight years.
For some two weeks he had been very
ill and the many anxious enquiries of
his fellow citizens from day to day
concerning his condition, manifested
the deep interest they felt in his res
toration to health again.
Mr. Vaughan has lead a very active
life. He was a printer by occupation,
but at various times engaged in other
avocations, in the pursuit of which he
saw much of his own State and some
what of other neighboring States and
formed a large circle of friends and ac
quaintances. He was a man of ener
gy and in the latter part of his life
had made good progress in providing
a competency for his family, for whose
comfort and welfare he showed the so
licitude of a good husband and father.
Within the last year or two, he estab
lished the Chronicle newspaper in this
city, and was, up to the time of his
death, untiring and successful in his
efforts to sustain and build it up.
He married some nineteen vears
ago, the daughter of Mr. Daniel Cara-
ker of this city, who remains with six
children to grieve over a loss which
can never be repaired. While most
probably he had little expectation of
so soon being taken from the support
of his family, he yet showed his pru
dent regard for their welfare by join
ing the Royal Arcanum association,
and subsequently by taking out a
policy in a Life Insurance company;
the latter having been obtained only
a month before his death; by which
means he secured a payment to his
family of $4,000, when he could no
longer aid in their support. He also
carefully taught his three boys, as
they reached sufficient age, to work
at liis own business and that with a
skill that is remarkable for persons of
their immature, age.
Some five years ago Mr. Vaughan
joined the Methodist church in
this city and when he felt that his end
was at hand, he expressed his confi
dent reliance on his Savior and view
ed his approaching end with calmness
and resignation. On Wednesday last
a large nulnber of our people, among
whom were the Royal Arcanum, at
tended his funeral services, which
were conducted by Rev. Mr. Ham
mond at the Methodist Church. A
detachment of the Baldwin Blues,
of which the deceased had long been
a member, acted as pall-bearers, and
after the conclusion of the services at
the Church, the long procession ac
companied the remains to the ceme
tery and reverently witnessed their
consignment to their last resting place.
The Masonic Lodge at Island Creek
will celebrate the Festival of St. John
the Baptist, next Thursday, 24th inst.
Mr. W. W. Lumpkin, the Worship
ful Master of Benevolent Lodge, in
this city, will deliver the address.—
He is an eloquent speaker and our
brethren of Island Creek are fortu
nate in securing! his services. We
learn that a number of the fraternity
from this city will be in attendance
on this interesting occasion. The
people of Island Creek are noted for
their intelligence and hospitality and
the MasonsVili have a royal time.
