DEATH OF A VETERAN.
A Former Lancastriap Who
Planted the Flag on MexlcO's
Walls, Dies in Florida.
A p Jordan in Leesburg Fla.
Commercial, Jan. 20.

A p Jordan in Leesburg Fla.
Commercial, Jan. 90.
Peter B Perry, who died last
week at his home near Oxford,
Fla. deserves more than the very
mesgrs notice sent from that place
to the Sumterville Times. He
was 8 veteran of the Mexican war,
as stated, but, moro than that, he
claimed to be and doubtless was
tho first man to plant tho flag of
the United States upon the walls
OF the City of Mexico.
He served IN tho famous Pal,
metto regiment of South Carolina,
his native State, and he wore un
til his death the medal voted by
the Legislature Of South Carolina
to each of her soldiers for gal
lantry in the Mexican war. He
fought IN all the battles of that
war from Cherubusco to the ca
pitulation of the city of Mexico.
Upon the conclusion Of that
conflict, he returned to his native
State, whence he emigrsted to
FlCrida over forty years ago. He
settled first in the Aicanopy re
gion, afterwards moving to the
wilderness, 20 miles south of Oc.
la, where he lived till he died.
He was amongst the first Flor
idians to enlist in the civil war.
throughout which he served with
the accustomed gsllsntrv in the
Confederate ranks. Afterwards,
he resumed his duties as useful
citizen, devoting himself to farm
ing and school teaching. He rni,~
ed a family Of four sons and four
daughters. all Of them married.
and left a monument to himself in
the upright character which they
exhibit IN daily life. For old Tn,
Gle Peter Perry, az his neighbOrs
and many friends called him, was
an upright man. He ras mem-
her of the Baptist church: and,
besides being the useful citizen
that be was, his kindness as a
neighbor and generosity as y
friend, won for him the esteem of
all who knew him.
Uncle Peter was born in Ian
caster district, S. G. Several
brothers and sisters came with
him to Florida, all eventually set
tling in the locality where Oxford
now tlOurishes. OF his brothers,
two l knew well-John Skies and
Joshua, both of whom died with
in the past six years. Uncle Josh
WAS a Baptist preacher, and a bet
ter fellow never lived. The broth
ers were all we'll known and liked
from5the Withlacoochee to tho
Ocklarahs, from OcaIa to the
southern boundary of Sumter
county.
Uncle Peter was doubtless at
the time of his death over 50 wears
of AGE.

Committed for Forgery.

Joe Brown, COL, was commit
ted to Jail Monday charge with
forgery. Two orders were forged
on Capt. j H Fitzpatrick, one for
81. and the other for So, to be
charged to the account of Massey
farm, each having the name of
Mr.. d l. Adams, the manager of
Capt. Fs Massey farm, sigpad
thereto. Capt. Fitzpatrick cashed
the orders but afterwards LEARNED
from Mr.. Adams that be had not
given them. He traced the
forgeries to Brown, though he
had been sharp enough to make
the orders payable to other par
ties and not to himself, and he
was arrested Monday.
MIR. Ganson discovered Satur.
day that he had filled a forged Or
der for goods to the amount of
rs, with the name of Judge ID
A Williams signed to it, and

pected OF committing these
