David Osgood, one of the oldest and most respected citizens of the town of Lodi, was found dead on Tuesday evening last. Mr. Osgood, who was seventy-nine years old, was in the habit of working in his saw mill near his house. He was working there alone on Tuesday last, and as be did not appear at supper, a search was made for him when his lifeless body was found in the basement of the mill. Part of the mill was unfloored and it was evident that he had fallen between the sleepers, and being stunned by the fall, had rolled into the water."
