“ The deceased gentleman also took an active part in the old volunteer movement, and held the rank of Major in the Emerald Hill Artillery. The cause of death was heart disease, from which he was known to have been suffering for some time past, although he attended to his official duties up to yesterday. He was 60 years of ago, and leaves a widow and a grown up family." We may add that a great portion of the beautiful lithographic work on the geological maps was performed by the late artist. ”
