Holden, of this city, died this morning. He served during the civil war in the 48th Wisconsin infantry. Funeral services at church of SS Peter and Paul on Monday morning at 9 o’clock. Wm. H. Borden post, of which deceased was a member, will attend in a body. The ranks of the old soldiers will thin fast from this time on. The hardships which most of them suffered will have a tendency to prevent many of them from reaching advanced old age. It will be but a few years when those who can tell the story of the great war from their own experience will be comparatively few. Additional Comments: Mt.
