DEATH CALL COMES TO
GENERAL IRA c. ABBOTT

Gen. Abbott "a years old, who served
the United States almost continuously
for over fifty years as postmaster, in
ternal revenue collector and officer in
the Union army and lately employee in
the pension bureau, died at his home
1920 Thirteenth street, Northwest.
Washington, D. c., of infermities and
old age. His death was not unexpected.
He had been i'll since early last sum
mer. His funeral took place Sun
day morning and the interment was
made at Arlington.
He was the first volunteer from
Michigan and he rose from merit to the
office of general. After the war he re-
turned to Michigan and was ever ready
for services his country required. He
was loved by his boys" SO much so
that when he attended reunion they
would carry him bodily to the stand
where he would talk to them. His arm
was ever ready to embrace his boys"
at any time He has a son living at
Eldon Iowa, who has ever revered the
memory and deeds his father won on
many battle fields, besides his life
which was one Of love and strict obedi-
ence to its laws. Such veterans as
Gen. Abbott had and still have the
love Of his comrades. He lived the
life Of hero and went to his reward
to glory. He answered to his last roll
call like a soldier. When the taps
sounded he answered here. So should
all veterans do likewise. The ranks
are thinning fast and soon the last will
answer and may they like Gen. Abbott
be ready. Although he was not an
Iowa soldier his memory will be re-
vered by Iowa soldiers.
