San Antonio.
General Trevino and wife and Major
James Ord of the Mexican Army,
passed through this city last Sunday
on their way to New York, where they
were to meet General Il. o. G. Ord,
who would accompany them on "a tour
OF Europe. Mrs. Trevino is the eldest
daughter of General Ord, and James is
his eldest son, who was commissioned
major in the Mexican army about two
years ago. The day after they departed
from this city the sad news came of
the death of General Ord at Havana,
from yellow fever contracted by him al
Vera Cruz, where the fatal malady has
prevailed for some two months past In
most malignant form. General Ord,
for about eight years, commanded this
military department., with headquar-
tiers la this city. He did more to bring
about good feeling as between Mexi-
cans and Americans than any other
man. There was never a more devoted
man to children than this veteran
hero of many fields of bloody strife.
