A Sad Death.

Attorney John c. Sullivan, of
San Antonio, who has been here
several days in attendance upon
the special term of district court,
received the sad intelligence this
morning, of the.death of his young
est brother, Walter Sullivan, day
or so since. The young man was
on his way to the Philippines on a
visit to his sister, Mrs. John l..
Glen, wife of Colonel Glen, who
was at one time stationed at Browns
vile. No particulars were received
as to the circumstances of the
drowning, but the sad occurrence
is supposed to have taken place
somewhere in the neighborhood of
the Hawaiian Islands, judging
from the length of time since the
unfortunate man sailed tor the
Philippines.
Walter Sullivan was young man
of great promise, having only last
year graduated with honors from
Yale, and was destined to make
his way to fame in the business
world.
THE HERALD is saddened TO
hear of the unfortunate death of
this promising young man, and ex-
tends its sympathy to the bereaved
family in their loss.
John c. Sullivan left for his
home in San Antonio on this morn
ing's train, and many expressions
of sympathy were heard from
friends of the young man as he de.
parted on his sad journey.
