An Obituary on Capt Williams.


When Capt. Jno. j. Williams. of
Winchester, was in Front Royal some
days ago..a gentleman handed him
paper which proved to be ''The
Rockingham Register and Virginia
Advertiser" published at Harrison
burg, Va, on Friday morning, April
14th, 1865. The paper is well print
ed and seems to have had good
advertising patronage. The sub
scription price was $4,000 per annum
in advance. The paper is full of
war news, and among other items
contains the following report of the
supposed death of private j. j..
Williams:
/" A report has reached us from
source that warrants the belief that
it is correct, that JOHN j. WILLIAMS,
a member OF Co. Z. 18th Va,

banner of their country, in her

rality and ur banity of manners, which
distinguished him in the school circle
no less than in his intercourse with
his companions in arms, had won for
him the esteem of all who knew him.
So pass away the flower of our young
men, the brightest and most precious
Jewels that adorn the family circle.
He had gone forth from the parental
roof with the benedietion, gushing
from the sacred fountain of a

Near the placid Potomac
Not many years ago,
A babe first saw the dawn
His name, you all wen know.
His birth was unheralded
By pagcantry or song
Has won his own laurels,
Fighting bravely and long.
When young, boldly entered
The arena of life,
Buclled on his armor
And prepared for the strife.
His weapons. self-reliance,
Promptness and enterprise;
A soldier in the ranks,
But determined to rise.
How grandly he succeeded
'Tis needless to relate,
His fame is not bounded
By county or State.
When the war tocsin sounded
From st. Lawrence to Rio Grande,
In the Stonewall Brigade
He nobly took his stand.
He followed his great leader
Over mount, hill and glade.
Till he crossed DER the river
To rest under the shade"
When the reveille ceased
And peace smiled again
Hope was on his banner,
and success, his refrain
Continuing to conquer,
But dividing the spoils,
Sends gladness to many
In sad poverty's coils.
Misers can be liberal,
When It's sure to be known.
Our hero scatters abroad,
Forgetting where It's sown.
1t is easier to give
When death is at the door,
And fate plainly shows
Twill be needed no more.
When the last trump shall sound
And the roll-call complete,
'.Hungry, ye fed me-"
Come. sit at my feet

1t is believed by many that the
Norfolk and Western Railroad Com
pany, which recently went into the
hands of receivers, will shortly be
reorganized. The plan of the pro-
posed reorganization is to assess the
preferred stock, abate the interest
on the last bonds and so reduce the
expenses as to get rid of the car
trust and floating debt on the road,
and then turn the property back into
the hands of the railroad company.
