for him to remain loyal to the govern

commission.
Shortly afterwards General Slaughter
resigned from the Union army 10 ac-
cept service in the c0nfedeTacy, and
was prominently identified with most
of the enga gements in the trans
Mississippi campaign.
His resignation from the Union army
is said to be one of the most affecting
papers ever received by the war de-
partment, the gist of it being that his
sympathies we're with the Union. but
that he was compelled nevertheless TO
follow his people in their struggle for
an independent gOvernmeEt.
After the war General Slaughter
came to Washington and for num-
Der of years acted as agent for the
A!'bro Mining company, in their suit
against Mexico. This suit was subse-
quently decided in favor Of the COM
pany.
He was a warm personal friend of the
late Ambassador Romero, with whom
ne was associated in the litigation Of
the Arbro Mining company and in
Guided among his old army friends
General Wilson, now chief of engineers,
and Adjutant General Bachelor. Dur
ing the Garfield-Arthur administration,
General Slaughter was made post
master of Mobile, and subsequently, en-
gagged in other government contract
work in the south. de is survived by a
half brother, who is now a resident of
Culpepper. and by an aged aunt, who
is living at present in Alexandria, Va.

General Slaughter was appointed a

James K. Polk at the age OF Is,
through the interceSsiou Of his aunt,
