Death of Capt. Ham shepp rd

Capt Hamilton Sheppard, of Warrenton
Fauquier county, died in Lynchburg at $50
o'clock p. M, Thursday, April 18th, aged 81
years. The immediate cause of his death was
pneumonia. He had been in bad health for
the past year with an affection of the heart
and stomach which enfeebled his constitution,
md Just week before his death he was at
tackled with La Grippe which developed into
pneumonia and terminated his life. He was
Collector of Internal Revenue for this District
and had his headquarters at Lynchbur where
ne died. He had held the same office under
Cleveland's first administration with his head
quarters in this city, having his office over the
Augusta National Bank. He had been
for some years an active and energetic Demo
cratic politician and was we'll known and high
y esteemed. In the canvass of 1887, when
Barbour was chairman of the State Demo
cratic Committee, Sheppard was the secretary,
and rendered good service in that memorable
canvass in which Mahoneism was defeated.
Though he did not favor the nomination of
Cleveland at the last National Democratic
Convention, yet Cleveland again gave him the
appointment of Internal Revenue Collector
for the second time, which he held till bis
death. This appointment under these circum
stances was creditable both to Cleveland and
TO Sheppard.
His remains were taken to Warrenton, Fau-
quier county, for burial

Falling Springs Valley.

Leaving the main line at the G. e. 0. r. R,
at ::Covington, your correspondent took the
branch road to Falling Springs station. Leav-
ing the railroad at this point and travelling
by private conveyance over well graded road
we reached point where the water from the
Valley beyond falls over preciplce of 80 or
100 feet, forming a cataract which for beauty
and natural scenery is said by persons who
have seen both of these natural phenomena,
to surpass the Niagara. The falls are about 3
miles from the railroad, and at an elevation
of about 500 feet above the Jackson river bot
tom.
The main object, however, of our visit to
that Valley was to meet a Com missioner ap-
pointed oy Lexington Presbytery to organize
a church in that Valley.
This commission. consisting of Rev. ]. H.
Il. Winfree, of Churchville; Rev. George l..
Brown, of Massanutton; Rev. ". II. Groves,
of Millboro; and Elder John W. Stephenson,
of Warm Springs met at the Healing Springs
on the 18th inst and, after some discussion,
it was agreed to move the organization at the
Healing Springs to the new churcn II Falling
springs Valley about 5 miles below the Heal
ng Springs.
This action of the presbytery does not dis
iurb the present organization. but simply
changes its name-locating the future home
of the church in the Valley, with view to its
| being reinforced by members of other Presby
| terrain churches in the lower part of the Val
| ley-thus forming the nucleus of a stronger
and more beautiful church home.

Money made by speculation at the expense
of the widows and orphans never sticks. God
sees to it that man loses more than he makes,
stillthe wrath of God does not deter some of
the human family from this thing. There
has been some horse-riding of a night going
on here of late. This thing of forcing off the
lock, and taking out mans horses, and run
ming them so brutally, is a serious, and the
parties are known now to some, and will be
hosted the next time they commit the dirty
deed.
James E. Beard, one of our sterling Chris
tan men, is out as a candidate for Justice of
the Peace, for this place. He is eminently
fitted for the place, and the voters can rest as
sured he will make good justice.

A. Chesterman, aged GA years, months, and
16 days, having been born in Waynesboro
this county, June oath, 1880, from which
place his father removed to Staunton the same
year. Before the war he was engaged exten.
sively in the stage business, in Eastern Vir
ginia, in this Valley, and in what is now Wes
Virginia. Immediately after the passage Of
the ordinance of secession by the Virginia
convention on the 18th of April, 1861, he or
ganized a company of infantry, and, on the
18th Of that month, went to join the Confed-
crate forces then at Harper's Ferry. He was
with Gen. Jackson during the movements
participant in the battle and great victory
which took place there in July, with his com
pany on the right of the 9Th Va. Regiment OF
| Infantry, and was one of the first if not the
first. to reach Ricketts, battery that was cap
tured with the exception of one gun that was
gotten away. In the Spring of 1862 he was
Quartermaster at Staunton, when he was
promoted to the ColoneIcy of the 18th Virgin
ia Cavalry, on the recommendation of Gen.
Jackson.
He was brave and gallant officer, and had
the confidence of his command.
In the greatest cavalry battle of the war at
Brandy Station on the 9th of June, 1868, he
was wounded in the neck. After month s
recuperation at his home he returned to the
army. In subsequent engagement he was
captured and was prisoner at Johnson
Island for IS months, when he was exchang
ed, and remained in the service to the surren-
der at Appomattox where, with others of
Lees army, he was parolled.
After the war Col. Hartman returned to his
farm, near Staunton, where he remained I'm
til about 1870, when, with his brother. Col.
NJ. G.. Hartman, he engaged in contracting on
the Valley railroad. This work ended in 1876
since which time he had been interested in
many railroad contracts in Virginia, West
Virginia. and Kentucky.
Col Hartman married in 1852 Miss Virginia
Callahan, of Fincastle who. with five chill
dren, survive him. His children are w. H.
Hartman and Mrs Writ A. Chesterman, of
