" Died at his residence in Greenville District on the 15th inst. , the Hon.
Banister Stone in the 67th year of his age. The deceased was a native of
Virginia and removed to this District about fifty years since. For eighteen years he
represented the District of Greenville in or the other branch of the State
Legislature. He was a man of great integrity of purpose, and endowed with a
strong and vigorous mind. He was silent and unobtrusive in his manner, but no man
possessed more firmness or decision of character. In early life he had to
contend with poverty and the want of a good education; but he was a man of great
prudence and industry, and accumulated a large property. He was a wise man and
showed his wisdom in his attention and devotion to his own affairs, without
interfering with those of others. He has left behind him a large family and
numerous friends to regret his loss ".
