          Mr. Morgan Watts, who spent the greater part of his life as a resident of Brandywine township, Shelby county, sold his farm last summer and went west to live.  It will be remembered that he lived at the foot of the hill in Brandywine bottoms, about four miles this side of Boggstown.  News came to this city of his death yesterday, which his many friends will regret to hear.
