CAPT. wHEELER's BURIAL.
Was Laid to Rest in Arlington Gene
tery

Capt Henry w. Wheeler, for nearly forty
years clerk in the office of the auditor of
the Post Office Department, died suddenly
with pneumonia last Sunday, after only
three days illness.
Capt. Wheeler was an exceptional man
in many ways, for besides his bravery in
service during the civil war, for which he
received medal of honor from Congress,
his record as clerk is almost unparalleled,
in that he refused to accept promo
lions on several occasions and twice de-
clined an increase in salary; he also re-
fused to ever take the vacation allowed
him, and simply took what little time he
could from his work, a part of day at
time. without requiring the assignment of
another to his desk.
Capt. Wheeler was appointed to posi-
ton in the Office of the auditor of the
Post Office Department, August IL, 1867,
and assigned to duty in the pay division;
in two years he was promoted to the re-
sponsible position which he held to the date
of his death. He had alwayes been regard
ed as one of the most efficient clerks en-
ployed In the auditors Office, and was SO
particular about the books and records of
his desk that he never allowed anyone to
assist in his work. He kept the records In
the famous Star route trial in 1881 The
ninety-four routes included in the trial and
all records, warrants and certificates of
service, with reports of the Postmaster
SIenefals W0uCn CoIupIlS6u tIto lulpOflduC
evidence in court, were kept by Capt.
Wheeler, and with all the scrutiny with
which these reports were examined not a
single clerical or other error was discovered.
He enlisted in the I'd Maine Regiment,
serving throughout the war, and was pro-
NOTED and received commission as cap
tain. The incident of bravery for which he
received the medal OF honor. was after the
first battle of Bull Run. when Col Jameson
called for volunteers to help bring of the
wounded, under heavy fire of the enemy.
I'm response to his call, Private Henry w.
Wheeler of Company A was the first to re-
spond, and six others stepped forward"
and all OF the wounded were carried safely
back to the regimenfal lines.
Capt. Wheeler having expressed his de-
sire to be buried at Arlington, his wishes
were complied with. and he was laid to rest
with his comrades in that beautiful ceme-
terry. He was also member OF Acacia
Lodge. f. A. A. NJ, but was never very
prominent because OF his retiring DISPOSE
ton.
DR.. Bristol, who oflciated at the funeral
paid an earnest and eloquent tribute to his
character, emphasizing not only his bravery
but his generosity, self-forgetfulness and
quality Of being true to svery one.
