Death of an Old Citizen.

Judge D. S. Van Matre, born
January II. 1910. died January 26.
1906 at Huntington, West Virginia.
Judge Van Matre was probably
as we'll known in Mason county as
any of our citizens, having until re-
cent years been prominent in po-
litioal and social affairs.
At the age of u he was an ap-
prentice in the office of The Vir-
Rinia Messenger, published at West
Columbia, this county, in 1862,
where he learned the printing bust
ness. and where he, also. published
Slasher's Monthly, until the break
ing out of the Civil war, when he
enlisted in the Confederate army
at Point Pleasant. and afterward
was transferred to Jackson's Light
Artillery, that for four years en-
dured much hardship and was
engaged in many bloody battles.
And by his comrades tits said,
THAT truer soldier never yet
Bore shining sword or bayonet."
AT the CLOSE of the war he returned
to Mason county and studied law
and was admitted to the bar, but
the amendments to the Constitu-
ton of the State in 1882, provided
for a county court for the trial of
causes. he was nominated for Judge
90 the Democratic ticket, was elect
ed. and served out his term, doing
honor to himself and the bar.
Soon after this he engaged in
business in this city. and opened a
first-class book store on Main street.
and in connection with this he
published a bright weekly news
paper, known as The Saturday
Visitor, but the financial panic and
stagnation of business caused by
the resumption of specie payments
coming on. Mr.. Van Matre sold
out his business.
He held several prominent po-
sitions of honor and trust in our
city, and was mayor of Point
Pleasant in 1878.
His health being greatly i'm
paired through hardships endured
in the army. he engaged in clerical
work, the last years of his life
being spent in the County Clerks
office with Col. j. P. R. B. Smith.
Last summer he was stricken
with paralysis. and for better and
more thorough treatment was sent
to the Home at Huntington, but
the vigor and strength of his life
having been laid on the altar OF
Lee and jackson. health could moi
return, and he answered the last roll
call. and joined the great army oil
the dead.
