    Corrydon E. Phelps died this morning about six o'clock, after a lingering illness of consumption, aged 34 years.  "Corry," as he was familiarly known, was born and raised in this city, and his warm hearted nature and generous disposition had won for him many friends who are saddened by his early death.  His long illness was bravely borne and his death was calm and peaceful. He leaves a wife and one child, who are bereft of a devoted husband and loving father.
