He had fought with distinction in the
Mexican war, and the outbreak OF the
civil war found him in ST Louis a
prosperous lumber merchant. He took
sides with the confederacy and for
two years served in that cause. The
principal incident in his civil war Ca
reer was his defense of Camp Jackson
in this city and his surrender in May,
1861, to the federal troops under Gen.
eral Lyon. The state militia had been
called together for their annual drill
and were encamped under Frost on
the outskirts of the town. Before
they could find an opportunity active
ly to express their sympathies with
the south they were captured by the
home guards and the Missouri volun-
teers. After the close OF the war
General Frost returned to st. Louis
and settled on his farm near the city.
One of his sons, R. Graham Frost,
who died several months ago, repre-
scented a Missouri district in congress.
