Obituary:

Cholera - From the following, taken from the Democrat of the 25th inst., it appears the cholera is raging to some extent in Defiance.

Within a few days several deaths have taken place here from cholera, or some similar disease. The deaths are: Henry Doud, aged 20, Mary Doud, aged 17; also, mother of Wm. Doud; Joseph Stone, marble cutter aged about 60, long resident in this vicinity. These lived in the Hull and Semans house on the other side of the Maumee, nearly opposite the Fort, though the death of Stone took place in this village. A child of Mr. Price and also one of a German have died.

These are all the deaths that have occurred as of this time, (Friday morning.) No serious [concern] is expressed. It is not likely that it will become an epidemic, or prevail to any great extent.
