JOHN REDMoN, Esq. of Batesville, is no more. He died on the morning of the 25th, after painful illness of r days, which be bore with Christian fortitude.- Mir. Redmon was born in the State of K en- lucky, in the month of September, l799, and emigrated to this Territory in the year ls24 He was appointed Clerk of the Circuit Court for the county Of lnde- pendence in 1926, and has since been twice elected by the people to that office. In 1928 he was appointed Receiver of Public Monies for the Lawrence land dis trict: Both of which offices lie held at the time of his death, having discharged them with entire satisfaction, both to the pub lie and general government. In the death of Mr. Redmon, the northern portion of Arkansas, and particularly the county of Ind pendence, have sustained loss which time alone can fill mp. To mind of the first order, capable of grasping any sub- jeet, was combined business habits rarely to be met with in any man. Upright and scrupulously honest in all his transactions, he had gained the confd dence of all who had any dealings with him-so strictly attentive to business, that his promise was a sufficient guarantee that any thing en- trusted to him would be faithfully attend ed 10. It would be folly 10 attempt to de- scribe the fre-side grief of the most ami able and aifeetionate wife, and two sweet and interesting children. They have, however. that consolation which buoys up the Christian in every trial. He died re- lying upon the merits of blessed Saviour
