==============================

Aaron Lagrange, whose serious sick­ness we mentioned last week, died at his home on West Jefferson St., about 10 o’clock Saturday morning. Mr. La­grange was born in Mercer County, Ky., on the 24th day of May 1810, thus making him nearly eighty years of age at the time of his death. He removed to this state with his father in 1826 and settled in the Hopewell neighborhood. He had been a member of the Pres­byterian church since his early youth, and served the church in the capacity of ruling elder for many years. The funeral took place from the Presbyterian church on Monday morning, and the remains were taken to Hopewell for interment.
