JOHN WILLIS McCUE
DIES IN FAR NORTH

Mr.. w. T. McCue late Tuesday
evening received news of the death
of his brother, John Willis MeCue,
which occurred yesterday morning
at Hope, a small town far north in
the wilds of British Columbia, after
short illness. Further details
have so far not been received but
the suddenness of his death is at
tested by the fact that Mr.. w. I.
McCue had received letters from him
quite recently. Strange to say, tt
deceased had expressed the bel:c,
that he would never get back to his
home in Covington.
John Willis McCue was in his
sixty-sixth year having been born at
Pleasant Grove, in Nelson county,
the home of his paternal grandpar-
ents. He was the eldest of family
of eleven children, sons and daugh-
tiers of the late John Howard Me-
Cue.
He was a student at V. M. L., @.
the opening of hostilities betwcet
the North and South, but enlisted
with Colonel Mosby upon the forma-
ton of his gallant command, where
he served with distinction and brav-
cry throughout the war. While on
raid in April 1865, shortly after
the surrender, he was captured in
Prince George county, Maryland.
After being confined some months
in Baltimore, he was tried for his
life and sentenced to life term in
Clinton, New York. He was par
doned by President Johnson through
the solicitation of General Grant who
in pleading for his release, in the
presence of his mother, Mrs. John
Howard McCue, made use of the
following words:
"Mr. President, blood enough has
been shed on both sides. Open the
prison doors and give the mother
her boy"
His widow, who was Miss Lavinia
Smith, of Nelson county, two daugh-
ters and three sons survive him.
They are Miss Otelia McCue and Miss
Lavinia McCue of CovingtOn, Mr..
Frank A. McCue, of Iron Gate; Mr..
Howard McCue of Covington; and
Mr.. John Morton McCue who was
with his father in British Columbia
where they were engaged in railroad
construction work for big English
Scotch company with whom they had
been for years.
He also leaves three sisters, Mrs. |
]. Martin Perry, of this city, Mrs. B.
R. Norvell and Mrs. P. H. Wise of
Beaumont, Texas; two brothers,
Messrs. w. T. McCue and J. Med. |
McCue, of Staunton, and wide cir
Gle of relatives both in this and other |
sections of the country.

Near Summit When Caught

Toxic, Aug. 15.-More than thirty
persons, half of whom are believed
to have been foreign tourists, were
probably burned to death on the
slopes of Mt. Asama-Yahama, usu-
ally passive volcano, about ninety
miles from this city, when it sud-
denly burst into violent eruption to-
day.
The volcano has been one of the
big points of interest to visitors to
Japan's leading summer resort, Ka-
ruizawa, and the tourists who are
believed to have lost their lives to-
day were from that place.
There is a well-traveled road ex-
tending from the bottom and wind
ing along the sides of the mountain
almost to the crater.
Sudden Rain of Lava
Parties of tourists were toiling up
this road when there came a sudden
rumbling, followed by terrible ex-
plosion and hundreds of tons of mol
ten lava poured from the top of the
mountain through the many assures
on the sides.
All the parties lower down on the
mountain escaped. Abandoning their
effects, they fed in terror and were
soon out of harms way. Two big
parties, however, were nearly at the
summit, and it is believed they were
overwhelmed by the gaseous smoke
and their bodies incinerated in the
molten lava.
The identify of the tourists has
not been learned, but it is believed
they were Europeans.
