Norfolk Virginian September 20, 1890

                      Colonel Lindsay's Death

The death of the venerable Colonel E.C. Lindsay at his home in Berkley, 
Thursday night, marks the last period in the life of a man who has been very 
active in the advancement of Norfolk.  Colonel Lindsay was in the real 
estate business, and with an unusual activity, assisted by Mr. A. Jeffers, 
had flooded the North and West with circulars and newspapers advertising 
this section.  He had passed his 64th year when his useful life was brought 
to a close.  He was a gallant Confederate soldier, and before the war was a 
true type of the Virginia gentleman of ante bellum days.  But like many 
others his return from the long struggle witnessed only the fragments of a 
fortune.  He leaves a wife and six children to mourn his loss.
