DEATH OF GENERAL SHERIDAN.

At 1920 Sabbath evening, General Philip
H. Sheridan passed from among the living
at Nonquitt, Mass. The cause of his death
was heart disease. and his friends had been
prepared for such an end for some weeks.
He held the highest position in the army of
the United States, and his death falls heavy
upon his country as well as his immediate
relatives and friends.
He was born at Somerset. Ohio, March g..
1881. In early life he seems to have Jared
as the ordinary village boy until he
was IL, when he entered the Military
school at West Point. He graduated when
he was 90 and was assigned to the infantry
service. In the regular army he reached
the rank of captain. and in 1862 was ap-
