After a fight of over two months against the “grim monster,” General Phillip
Sheridan died rather suddenly of heart failure at 10:30 p.m. last Sunday night
at Nonquitt, Mass., whither he was carried some weeks ago from Washington. 
Essentially a solider, he acted toward the south from a conqueror’s standpoint
and felt very little charity for our people, who he would have ruled with a rod
of iron had he been the representative of a monarchy instead of a republic.  But
the great enemy has overcome him at last and we can afford to drop the mantle of
charity over his grave.
