Breedon, ono ol our oldest nnd wost p rominent citizens, died at Ins rosldouco near t9w.11 on Tuesday evening* 04 ioo^hw^in?ss was ol short duration. will coot hw f was dono l?r him within hu? Tho lfjto abilities, but nil tho skill of his ^^.ouUiug physician and tho kind alton lions of relativos and friends weto of no . avail. For scvorol months ho had bcou complaining of fcoblcuoss^ nud was not able to attend to his business vith bis accustomed caro aud euergy. Tho loss of his wife about n year ogo was n orush ing blow lo him. With all his fortitude mid usual philosophical resignation he could not recover from it. His friends hoped however that lime, the great bonier ot ali human uinioiious, wouid eventually rocon.iilo him to this sad boroavomout, but in this tboy havo boen sorely disap^ pointed. Mr. Breedon was a nativo of Marlboro county, and was born in Adnmsvillc, at lite residonco on tho plantation of Capt, P. h. Breedon. Ho was about 03 years of ago. Ho married Miss Ayors, uud always lived'afterwards at tho old homo stead cf his wife's father, near Bonuotts vill?. Ho had no children, but leaves poyeial brothers und many uephows and noices, to lament his death. He was a remarkable man in many par? tiulars. Without much mental training in early life, he left tho old homestead and started out to bo tho architect of his j own forluncs, His suecos* in all his bu-? i biuoss undertakings shows the oharactor ?oil'educated. , Ho had naturally strong intelleoluul qualities, and those wcio im proved and eultivnted in tho school of tho world. Contnot willi othors, with his keen and comprehensive observation and good common sense, mudo him tho peer of mon who had oojoyed all tho advam tages of a collegiate course His jud/j' ment of men und his intuitions in bust? ness mailors, wcro a marvel at times to his friends. Tho prominent characteris tics of his business lifo wcro his indomit able energy, hi* unwavering confidenco iu self, his invincible determination (0 suo* coed in ovorylhing, his loticonco, his iu corruptible Intcgnly, nud nu abiding cou; violion (hat honesty in all things was tho best policy. To sworVo from tho truth and right was regarded by him as uot only unmanly but highly roprohoasiblo. His heart was full of ibo milk of human kindness, although his brutquo manner nt limes led somo to thiuk dilforonlly. His charily for his follow men was of ott exemplary kind. Liberality was another of hts characteristics. Ho was peculiar in showing it, for ho boliovcd in tho bible dootriuo, "not tp lot yow rir?ht baud j -pc vrMV?n??H^buiv uWro?vcri;mVau.t<ncfM) t of tue t/?n?uo??ribs of his kinduoss and j liberality will always riso up and oall him, blessed. ile was an ardent and fuithiui friend. To l li oso who had his confidenco and friendship, ho was always nftablo, picoa? tint, confiding nnd ready at al) times to do nny favor or kindess they asked. As a husband, ho was ovor kind, gent?o, offco donato and oonsidornlo. As u citizen, he was patriotic, publio spirited' and outer' prising. Mr. Breedon was so thoroughly identi fied with tho growth and .prosperity pf Bcnnottsville, (hat his death loaves a hiatus hero which cannot bo filled, For thirty-five years ho was ono of it? lending merchants and citizens, and to him and his unfiting; energy in business and otherwise, tho lown is indobled for its growth and futuro possibilities. Tho County too Hullers on irreparable loss. As ono of tho largest planters in it for sovcral years, ho has been an exemplar in agricultural enterprise, and has couliibuted largely lownrds giving Marlboro tho reputation hbo enjoys to-day agriculturally, aud tho unexampled prosperity enjoyed bv thia class of her pnoplc. Tho death of Mr. Breeden is, therefore, a severo blow and . sad affliction to the entire County, and all of our people feel the ' bereavement, and aro ready to minglo thoir tears with thoso of tho numerous rolalives and friends of this pneo prominent and usoful man. .
