While the cause of demise is not given, it is understood that he had been senously ill of tuberculosis, and death was doubtless from this cause. Jereml.il B. Butts, of this city, also a brother of the deceased, left Monday night for Hampton Roads, and arrangements await receipt of tidings from him.
