Suggested edit: Rev. Franklin Putnam, first pastor of the 2d Presbyterian Church in this place, died at Thornton, Indiana, on the 9th inst. A letter from J. F. Putnam, a son, written to Mrs. C. P. Brister, of Newark, sister of the deceased, and published in the paper of which she has charge, gives the following- particulars of his death :
"He had been sick for several weeks but was thought convalescent. After passing a very comfortable night he awoke in the morning feeling better than he bad since his sickness, an hour after he was attacked with a violent pain under the right shoulder and through the right lung with great difficulty in breathing. All was done that the skill of a beloved physician, (an elder of his own church) who was very much attached to him, could do.-- He retained his mind clear to the last, remarked that all was well and peaceful, he had trusted in Christ, and he was his only hope. He called us all around his bed, and gave us his dying counsel, after this he soon became easy and sweetly fell asleep in Jesus. Ten minutes before he died he inquired of the Dr. how his pulse was . Thus died one whose life was a commentary of all that was good."
