Public Treasurer of the State, which office he has filled for the long term of 41 years, with unwearied devotion and a faithful discharge of its important duties, for which a parallel can scarcely be found. Our peculiar situation, at this period, and our limited time for publication, prevent us from doing justice to the character of this most excellent man. We trust some abler pen will at an early day, furnish us an obituary notice, worthy to be recorded as a lasting memorial of his illustrious character. We cannot, however, let the present short opportunity pass without a brief, but imperfect tribute to his worth, as we have known and felt its influence.—“Our good old Treasurer,” (a term for a few years most affectionately applied to him by those who knew him and as a consequence loved him) was distinguished alike by his active and passive virtues. His charitable hand was ever extended to the indigent and distressed—his benevolent heart ever open to commiserate the afflicted, sympathise with the sufferer and rejoice with those who had cause for rejoicing. His tenderness to his family and his urbanity to all with whom he had intercourse, was proverbial. His forbearance and forgiveness of injuries were in him distinguished virtues…yet few men had so little to forgive on that score, so universally was he beloved. “Goodness and he fill no one monument,” and long will that life be, “who sees his like again.” —Published in Raleigh Register and North-Carolina Gazette (Raleigh, North Carolina), Tuesday, November 20, 1827, p. 3.
