AN OLD VETERAN GoEE.-We
learn from the Austin Statesman
of Friday that Col. Frank W. John
son is dead. The announcement
came in aletter to Joe Fl. Stwart,
of Austin, from the proprietor OF
the "Hotel de la Plaza" at Agna-
scallentes, Mexico, where Col.
Johnson had gone in search OF
health, that he died on the sth Of
April. He was born in Virginia
n October 1899 and came to Texas
in 1926. In December 1885 he led
one of the columns that stormed
San, Antonio% His military SER
vices in the Texas revolution are a
matter of history. Col. johnson
was well known to all Texas vet
Grams and was universally beloved
and respected by them, and not
withstanding his great age, So
years, his. death in a foreign land
will be generally regretted, and
by none more than his old asso-
ciates in arms. His remains were
buried at Agrascallentcs, butlwill
no doubt in due time he removed
to the state of his adoption, and
suitable monument will be erected
to his memory. Col. Johnson was
president of the Texas Veteran as
sociation, and at the late reunion
was reelected to that position,
his death not being known.
