The Anderson Intelligencer
Thursday, 6 December, 1860

         It is with feelings of sincere sadness that we announce
       the demise of an esteemed and useful citizen of this vil-
       lage, Capt. ARCHIBALD TODD, who breathed his last on Sun-
       day evening, in the 50th year of his age. His illness was
       but of few days' duration, having been struck down with
       apoplexy on Wednesday, 28th ult.
       
         CAPT. TODD was one of the original founders of the An-
       derson Gazette, with which paper he was connected for
       several years. For the last few years, he has occupied the
       position of Mail Agent on the G. & C.R.R. In all relations
       he has sustained to society, and this community especially,
       he has been highly esteemed, and ever regarded as an up-
       right, worthy and respected man. He was an exemplary mem-
       ber of the Presbyterian Church for more than thirty years.
       His loss is keenly felt by the numerous family and endeared
       relatives and friends he leaves behind.
       
         The remains of CAPT. TODD were deposited in the Presby-
       terian churchyard on Tuesday, by the Odd Fellows and Sons
       of Temperance, both of which Orders recognized him as a
       worthy member. In the language of the text, from which the
       funeral discourse was preached, we may be impressed by this
       dispensation of Providence with the sacred truth, that man
       "cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down; he fleeth
       also as a shadow, and continueth not."
