Ball, of the well-known firm of Ball & Ward, will be read with sorrow by the people of this city and county, where he is well and favorably known and where he was born, raised and resided all his life. His death occurred at 1:30 this afternoon, at his home, 237 North Fourth Street. Twelve day ago he was taken suddenly ill while at his work and had to be removed to his home. His ailment was not thought to be of a serious nature until the day before yesterday, when a change for the worse came and hope for his recovery fled. Odd Fellows of which the deceased was a prominent member, turned out in a body to pay the last tribute of respect to their dead brother. The solemn ceremony of the order was performed at the grave. The pallbearers were from among the members of the Odd Fellows lodge, being Major Edwin Nichols, John Moser, D. Swisher, E. J. Carlisle, George Peckham, and J. L. Lundy. He was aged about 47 years, by trade a carriage painter in the shop of Ball & Ward, where he learned his trade and has worked ever since, Of late he has been the book-keeper for the firm and there he will be missed. In the circle of Odd Fellows will he also be missed. In the lodge room was his worth as a man probably best known. He was one of the order’s best, purest and most energetic workers, and those who have met him there for years will miss him. He was a member of Olive Branch Lodge, 34 and ha passed honorably through all the chairs and served as the efficient secretary of the lodge about fifteen years, and scribe of Mt. Olive Encampment about ten years. All brothers will grieve now that he is gone. He leaves a wife and one daughter and a son. The funeral will take place Monday at two o’clock. In the previous notices of the life and character of the late Bently E. Ball, no mention was made of his army record. Of his army life the following facts have been gleaned from Mr. L. H. Inscho, who was in the same company with him during the fierce battles in which he took part; Mr. Ball enlisted as a recruit at Columbus, Ohio, July 13, 1863, in Company E, 12th Regiment, O.V. I., commanded by Captain Aaron Channel, who was killed in the first engagement at Cloyd Mountain, May 18, 1864. Afterward he took part in the battle of New Creek, May 11, 1864. This closed the term of the 12th and the men were transferred to the 23rd, O.V.I., ex-President R. B. Hayes being the Colonel and the late J. M. Comley, lieutenant colonel, and Mr. Ball took part in the battles of Winchester, July 24, 1864; Halltown, August 24, 1862; Berryville, September 3, 1864; Opequean Creek, September 3, 1864, Fishers’s Hill, September 22, 1864 and Cedar Creek, October 19, 1864. During almost all of his service he was the company clerk and was so loved and prized by hi, Captain H.G. Otis, now of St. Barbara, California, that he fitted up quarters for him in his own tent, and consulted with him about matters of importance at the time. The soldiers honor his memory.
