Obituary.

Death of Mr. A. G. Hubbard.

At half past eight o'clock Friday morning, the oldest member of the
New Berne bar, A. G. Hubbard, Esq., departed this life to the sincere
regret of the entire community.

Mr. Hubbard was born in Caswell county in 1819, and in his 20th year
graduated at Chapel Hill, having obtained a collegiate training
through the kindness of the Philanthropic Society of that Institution.
He read law in Raleigh under Gov. Manly, and in 1841, moved to New
Berne and entered upon the practice of that profession to which he has
since devoted his entire life.

He was County Attorney for Carteret for a number of years and being
one of the Trustees of Newbern Academy, he has lived a private
citizen. His literary attainments were wide and varied, and he
possessed, perhaps, more classical accomplishments than any other
member of the New Berne Bar. As an attorney, he was zealous and
persevering, holding his clients interests paramount to every other
issue. And to his friends, in social intercourse, he was always
genial and kind. His virtues were many and his associates at the Bar
will especially mourn his departure.

He will be buried in Cedar Grove Cemetery on Sunday, his funeral
taking place from the Methodist church at 3 p. m. Members of the Bar
are requested to meet at his residence at half after two o'clock.
