  Obituary	"Death of Judge Garland - Judge Edward Garland, an old citizen of this city, died yesterday morning at 4 o'clock at his residence on Kentucky street, of heart disease. He was born in Goodland county, Virginia, in 1810, and consequently at his death was seventy-two years of age. He emigrated to this city in 1836 and was well known to the older citizens. He practiced law for a number of years at the Louisville bar and was the first Judge of the Jefferson County Court elected under the present constitution of the State. Twice he was re-elected to this office, which he filled with ability and credit. Owing to feeble health he had been confined to his home during recent years and took no part in active life. He was a man of great simplicity and purity of character, and in his death passes away another of that old school which is fast fading from our midst. Judge Garland was an Episcopalian, and was a member of the Masonic order, having been one of the charter members of Compass Lodge. He was married and leaves several children."
