Bethany, Va. May, 1835.

      OUR much esteemed and beloved friend and brother SAMUEL MARSHAL, of the borough of Washington, Penn. departed this life on Friday, February 25th, 1835, in the 44th year of his age, after a confinement of near three months. His death was the result of a pulmonary consumption, with which he had been affected many years. He bore his last illness with christian fortitude and resignation, and died in the full hope of a blissful immortality, of which he gave satisfactory evidence to such of his religious acquaintance as conversed with him in his last illness. He will long be remembered as a zealous and faithful disciple--a benevolent and useful citizen, by a large circle of respectable friends and brethren.

      Thomas Campbell's Obituary of Samuel Marshal was first published in The Millennial Harbinger, Vol. 6, No. 5, May 1835. The electronic version of the obituary has been produced from the College Press reprint (1976) of The Millennial Harbinger, ed. Alexander Campbell (Bethany, VA: A. Campbell, 1835), p. 240.

      Pagination has been represented by placing the page number in brackets following the last complete word on the printed page. I have let stand variations and inconsistencies in the author's (or editor's) use of italics, capitalization, punctuation, and spelling in the essay.
