DEATH OF MATTHEW REID. Matthew Reid died at his home last Sunday night at about fifteen minutes of 12 o'clock. He had been complaining for about three months, and at times confined to his bed. He was on the streets a day or two before he died. Saturday he grew rapidly worse and passed away as stated. He was troubled with a bealing in his head, which caused his death.
