The death of Hon. james X. Lotland
at Milford, on Saturday, calls for
more than a passing notice. At the
breaking out of the Rebellion, he was
the largest slave holder in tho Slate.
but Notwithstanding this fact. lie a.

his influence to sustain the govern

1n 1862 Mr.. Loilsnl enlisted in the
Delaware Cavalry and in short time
afterwards he was commissioned us
Major. This was followed by his ao.
pointment as paymaster. On the
close OF the war he returned to his
home. In 1872 he was elected to Con.
gress, and in 1874 he was Ienom inaLed,
but was defeated. lie filled various
positions with credit to himself
as well as to tho great satisfaction
OF his party friends, His death is ii
loss TO the State as well AS to the com.
munilyin which he resided. What good
men do should live after them. and the
