Mordecai Yarnall

DIED, at Wheeling, Virginia, on the 16th of the seventh month (July) Mordecai Yarnall, aged 24. The deceased member of the house of Cornthwait and Yarnall, was an esteemed member of the society of Friends--a splendid merchant, and an enlightened and useful citizen.

M.Y. was a native of Pennsylvania, from the metropolis of which state, about 2 years since, he moved to this city. A short residence amongst us, served to show the great extent of mercantile knowledge, the brilliant memory requirements, the true amiableness of character, the rigid integrity, and the unfeigned piety of the departed. In this short season, consumption laid her waxing hand upon him; to regain his health, if the Amighty should so ordain, he essayed to make the western tour.--But when the Omnipotent Judge, who rules the universe, shall have passed the sentence of death, nothing can arrest it. Nor was our friend ever taken by surprize or terrified at the approach of death. He had been enabled, in a good measure, to withdraw his affections from this world. Although to a mind like his stored with useful knowledge, and naturally cheerful, this world affords many and powerful attractions; yet its exquisite sensibility often "cloathed him in slackcloth," and enabled him less reluctantly to meet the summons which has deprived his numerous friends and associates of a worthy and profitable companion.
