That most excellent and serviceable
animal. the fine horse Frank" Of the
Thirty Fights Engine Company, was car
ried to his long home Yesterday. This
noble creature, spirited and proud, was
yet docile as fawn and obedient to the
slightest orders. The disease that took
him of appeared to be a gastric fever,
that defied all efforts made by the com
pany to save him. The attentions Of
VIM. Leverich, the driver, and E. A.
Forrest, one OF tho members, to the
wants Of the suffering animal in his sick
ness were mosttouching and sympathetic.
The animal seemed to feel the necessity
Of help, and manifested his recognition
Of the assistance rendered in most
unmistakable manner. The boys of the
company were very much attached to
old Frank, and many eyes were moist
ened when they saw the deathbed Of the
old, brave, useful and affectionate vet
eran.
