  Died, at his residence, in this county, on the 16th day of October, Charles Meriwether, in the 51st year of his age.

He has left a widow and five children, together with a large circle of relatives and friends to mourn his loss.
b. Note:   N2907 OBITUARY
  Died in his residence in this county on the 16th day of October, CHARLES MERIWETHER in the 51st year of his age.
  Mr. Meriwether was a native of Georgia and emigrated to this State, in company with his father, Dr. Nicholas Meriwether, in the 3d year of his age, 1819. When duty prompts us to record the death of an honest and good man, the talk is relieved in part of its painful reflections. It can be said very truly of him that he was a man, honest, consistent and strictly punctual in all his dealings with his fellow men, gifted with all the ennobling and redeeming traits of a gentleman in every sense of the the word--as the writer of this sketch can truly testify, having been intimately acquainted with the deceased for the last twenty years. He was a man whose virtues were more avidly shown and appreciated within the immediate circle of his home and family--for it can be truly said of him that a kinder husband, more indulgent father, and stronger or truer friend never lived. He was a man of generous feelings and noble impulses, whose prejudices were strong, but never exceeding the bounds of perfect rectitude, unobtrusive in his manner, sociable, and of a genial and warm temperament, whose gate was never closed against the appeals of true charity -- the truth of which many can testify. He has left a widow and five children, together with a large circle of relatives and friends to mourn his loss.
  Let the consolations of a friend be extended to his bereaved family, and may they not mourn as those who have no hope, but may they cherish his memory and imitate the noble precepts taught and practiced by him as a father, friend, and citizen.
 --C.T.F.
