att,ichnient for a young lady which was not
reciprocated on her part, and the consequent

Died, in Montrose, on the morning, of Jai3.
26th, 1877, after an Muesli of four :days,Ralph

Mr. Little was born Jan. 21st, 1816, in Del

about eight years old,with his p,arents,lie moved
to Bethany, 'then the Count l y•'Seat of Wayne
Co.. Pa. He - made the- be.st improveinent of
the limited opportunities of that place, ,at that
time, for obtaining lenrning. -He studied tittin
and Greek under the instruciona of Rev. Alex.
GamPbell, at Bethany, and the Natural Sciences
under Dr. Strong, with sdc other aids as that
small town afforded. — When about eighteen
years of age he commenced the study ()flaw,
k,! the office of the late Earle Wheeler; at Beth=
an About the time of the 7emovid. of the
County Seat to Honesdale, he came to Montrose
and completed his legal studies with the , late B.
T. Case, Esq. He was admitted to the Bar of
Susquehanna C0.,0n the 22d day, of Nov. 1886,
having passed an excellent examination. He
then entered upon the - practice,ol the law with
encouraging success. On the 24th day of April,
1840,he was married to Miss Phila Aim Post
daughter' of. David Post, Esq., 'of Montrose.
She, two sons and one daughter survive him.
• . Mr. Little was endowed by nature with su
perior intellect and a high order of talent, and
by the practice of strictly moral and temperate
habits and untiring and persevering industry-as
a student. he became : an able advocate at the
bar find a formidable opponent. What lie
deemed right in law, politics or any thing else,
lie had the undaunted courage to' stand up and
advocatei or &tend, regardless of denunciation
or opposition from any source : and men of
prudence'took issue with him with caution, ind
those who lacked .caution and other needful
qualities were doomed to disaster add defeat.
During his entire brilliant legal career, he
made andkept. at hand a short memorandum
of all the decisions of the Supreme Court of
this State, commencing with Ist Binney and
ending with 28th Smith. In. his profession he
took a special pride, honoring it for its own
sake, and,devoting to ithis entire energies, with
an iiidnitry *try "rarely' witnessed, and With S
degree of success very rarely-equaled. His
labors have been rewarded with worldiy com
petence.
During the first few years of tis manhood,
he acted with the so called Liberty party ; - wben '
that party failed to place a ticket in thefield,
he generally . voted with the DeMociatic party-;
And. during the list fifteen years be has been an
active laborer in fhe cause of - Dem'ocraey, and
