He was a high-minded gentleman, respected and esteemed for his worth by all with whom he was thrown in contact. Previous to the war, he was for many years connected with the Revenue Service of the United States, but when Virginia called on her sons, with the dignity of his manhood, he threw aside office and position and tendered his mother State his services. Full ripe in years, he has passed away, leaving behind him a stainless reputation and an honored name, mourned by a large circle of friends, who deeply sympathize with his bereaved family. His funeral will take place this afternoon at 4 1/2 o'clock, from his late residence, No. 65 Boush street.
