FORTY YEARS OF SERVICE.
Passing Away of a Survivor of tn
Fort Sumter Incident.

Passing Away of n Survivor of the
Fort Sumter Incident.
Mr.. Henry Stewart for many years a
resident of Washington, died at his home,
No 1856 G street southeast, Tuesday morn
ing last, after an illness of little over two
months. Mr.. Stewart was born in 1897. He
became an expert machinist early in life,
and after serving for a time with private
firms he entered the government service in
1852. being employed on ordnance work at
various places including Fort Pitt proving
ground and Boston navy yard. He was in
charge of the ordnance at Fort Sumter at
the time of the outbreak of the civil war
in 1850, and was among the civilians or
dered to leave the fort previous to the
bombardment. In May, 1862 he was de-
tailed to the gun factory at the Washing
ton navy yard, where he was employ ed
continuously until the time of his last i'll
ness.
After serving some time as quarterman
in the breech mechanism shop he was de-
tailed as accountant and cost clerk in the
ordnance department.. on account of his
thorough knowledge of ordnance work
which position he held until his death
During his employment in the navy yard
Mr.. Stewart has witnessed the transition
and development of naval ordnance from
the ancient Misunderstanding smooth-bore
at the time when breech-loading cannon
was considered impossibility to the
modern rified breech-loading rapid-fire
weapon, and the ordnance department
which he entered has grown into the naval
gun factory, with many shops and employ-
ing over 2,OGO men.
Mr.. Stewart was possessed of cheerful
genial disposition, and his death is mourned
by many friends, both in the navy ward
and in the portion of the city in which he
resided. He was a thoroughly practical
man, and possessed with unusually alert
mental faculties which enabled him until
the last day of his service to discharge his
duties in most satisfactory and efficient
manner He had been intimately associated
with many officers of the navy in the dis
charge of his duties and his long associa-
| ton with naval ordnance manufacture
made him an authority on matters pertain
ing to that subject, and he was often con-
suited concerning the affairs in which he
had discharged functions which are now
looked after by many clerks.
During the later years of his life he spent
his time in Laurel Md, where his son re-
sides, or in Baltimore, with his daughter,
and in Washington, as occasion dictated
During his entire service of almost forty
years In the navy yard he was absent but
two hours in excess of his leave some
times not even being able to take leave on
account OF the stress of work. His wife
| three sons and a daughter survive him
His eldest son, George Stewart, is now in
charge of the physical testing department
OF the navy yard.
His funeral was held from the First
Methodist Protestant Church. on 4th street
between + and q streets, yesterday at 2:3O
pm.

STATE WILL TAKE ACTION.

Gov. Tyler to Cause Arrest of Her
zOg's Assailants.
Edward Herzog, the Baltimorean who
was brought here three weeks ago on the
steamer Randall, suffering from injuries
alleged to have been received aboard an
oyster dredge in Machodoc creek, is still
under treatment at the Emergency Hos
pital. Since he reached here several
changes in his condition have occurred, and
few days ago the doctors regarded his
case as hopeless. Two days ago the patient
took change apparently for the better, and
while his condition seemed to be a triae i'm
proved this morning he is far from being
out of danger.
A letter received this morning by Major
Sylvester conveys the information that Gov
ernor Tyler of Virginia will make every
sponsible for Herzog's condition. The gov
ernor stated that he had arranged for the
proper officers to go in search Of HerZog' s
assailants, but just when or from where the
start will be made the governor did not
state.
Governor Tyler asked Major Sylvester to
send him any additional information he may
obtain about the case. The testimony in
the possession of the police has already
been forwarded to the Virginia officials An
investigation Of the affair has been made
by w. D. Writ, prosecuting attorney for
Westmoreland county, who will have charge
being made.
The Virginia authorities are satisfied they
know on what boat Herzog's assailants
were employed. This boat, it is stated, has
left Machodoc creek and gone to the juris-
diction Of one of the lower counties. Some
trouble may be experienced in locating the
boat, and it is believed the officers will have
difficulty in making the arrests. Montross
Is the county seat of Westmoreland county,
and the jail is located there.
Herzog, as heretofore published in The
Star, is the man who was for time un-
conscious after reaching this city, as the re-
suit Of his injuries. He told the police that
he had been tied to the mast and beaten
and had also been placed on a stove and
badly burned After being treated in this
way, he claimed, he was put ashore in a
marsh where he wandered about nearly a
day before he finally reached Edgewater
and was given food.
