Purnell
But a few weeks ago the family circle of the Hon. Wm. H. Purnell, the comptroller of the State of Maryland, embraced five interesting children. Disease, however, recently invaded his household, and of the five that composed the happy family group, four now sleep in the arms of death, and the last lies prostrate beneath the hand of affliction.

Gen.
William II. Winder was, at the time of his death, Grand Master of Masons in Maryland, a Senator of this State, and also head a military command in our very numerous and efficient regiment of riflemen; so he was interred with the highest Masonic, civic and military honors. Perhaps 15,000 persons assembled, either to pay the last tribute of respect to a beloved friend and citizen, or to behold the long and solemn procession that attended his remains to the grave. No man, perhaps, ever died in Baltimore who was more generally esteemed – and, though not a fortunate General, a more honest or more zealous soldier never was in the “tented field’. His departure is regarded as a public loss, and may fairly be said to have put our city into mourning. – Nile’s Register.
