Monroe, Va, Sergeant DANIEL A. HESS, of Co.
II, 55th Reg't P. v, aged 81 years, months and
days.
Sergeant Hess entered the army in August, 1861,
was with his regiment in South Carolina about
two years and half. In Feb, 1854, he re-enlist-
ed, and having been granted short furlough,
visited his friends.
Notwithstanding the strongest attachments,
which render life pleasant, he would not forsake
his country in her hour of need; and, bidding his
loved ones adieu, he hastened again to the scenes
of danger and death. He was ever at his post;
when duty called he was always ready.
! he WAS WDUuuCu severely at the Ddlllc OF GOiu
Harbor June Sd, 1864 but returned to the regi-
ment his wounds would permit. He
received his death-wound at the battle of High
Bridge Burkeville Va, April 7th, by rainie
ball, which, passed through his left arm, entered
the side and lodged in the lungs. He Was taken
to the Chesapeake Hospital the 18th ult., where
every attention was paid to his wants. both spir-
tual and temporal, that earthly aid could render.
Though he fell, by a traitors hand, on the very
eve ofpromotion, and when his prospects, for the
speedy contamination Of his foRdest hopes, were
the brightest yet his friends have the assurance,
from those who attended him, that: che has been
infinitely advanced from earthly ranks"
His remains were embalmed, brought home, and
deposited beneath the very sod over which he so
often trod, in early years. And though no sculp-
tured urn nor costly monument marks the spot,
yet his memory seiH be fresh in the hearts Of
those who knew him best. M.
