Kaufman Co. TX - Obit for Vic Reinhardt Submitted by: June E. Tuck Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm ------------------------------------------------ Vic Reinhardt, a Confederate veteran and for many years engaged in newspaper work in Terrell, died Saturday night at his home in Terrell at the advanced age of 75. He published the first temperance paper in Texas, first at Gainesveille, then in Sulphur Springs, later moving it to Terrell, where it was the first paper to be printed in that city. His was a noble character, pure and upright in every relation of life, he was esteemed and honored by all classes and his funeral services were among the most imposing and impressive ever witnessed in that city. Confederate veterans, Odd Fellows, and the Methodist church shared in honoring the remains of the old hero, whose body now bivouacs with those of Albert Sidney Johnston, under whom he served, R. E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson and other immortelles, while his spirit has joined in glad and everlasting reunion with those already named and an innumerable throng of other veterans, both of the cross and sword. - Wills Point Chronicle (Reprinted in the Hopkins Co.
