dexter is stopping with Mrs. Fleming
Several offers were made by friends Of
the deceased to have the body removed
to their homes. and Mrs. Poindexter ac-
cepted the offer of Mrs. Fleming.
Owing TO the fact that Capt. Johnston
was the ranking surviving officer of the
confederate navy, and was on that ac-
count entitled to public consideration. an
ofter was made through the confederate
Veterans Association that the body should
be removed to the long room of the city
exchange to lie there in state until the
time for Its removal to the church. This
offer was declined, however, as savoring
of too much publicity, Mrs. PoindeXter
preferring that the funeral should take
place from a private residence.
The Confederate Veterans were notified
in the morning of the death Of Capt.
Johnston. who has been one OF the wee
years, and a meeting of such OF the ofl-
GERS and members as could be reached
was held in the afternoon at the resi-
dence of the president, Maj. G.. NJ. Ryals,
