R. H. BENNETT.
Unexpected Death of One of Mason's Most Prominent Citizens.

Mason, September 13. - Last Sunday night at 12 o'clock R. H. Bennett, one of our oldest and most respected citizens, died at his home in east Mason. He was sick only a few days but his sufferings were intense. The deceased was born in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, in 1819, but migrated to Ohio at an early age. He was married to Miss Catherine Bennett, who has borne him three children, two of whom survive him. Mr. Bennett by his integrity and energy has amassed quite a fortune. He has been engaged in public business for a number of years and will be greatly missed. He was unassuming in disposition and was always liberal and willing to aid a worthy cause. Since 1863 he has been justice of the peace and notary public, always discharging his duties to the entire satisfaction of all those whose interests were in his hands. The funeral took place at this late residence on Wednesday, Rev. Rankin officiating. The bereaved family have the sympathy of the entire community.
