Francis Weinberg
The Old Soldier known as the Pain
Paint Doctor Passed Away at
Soldiers Home

Comrades of the c. A. Il. re-
ceived word last Monday from
the Soldiers home at Hot Springs,
that Francis Weinberg died there
Sunday night Mr.. Weinberg
went from here to the home a
month or so ago. being then in
failing health that needed the
care and treatment he could re-
ceive at the home, but it was not
expected that he would recover.
Mr.. Weinberg was a well known
character, not only in this inn
mediate vicinity but in several
other parts of the state and in
Minnesota where he had travelled
around with horse aud wagon
selling what is known as Pam
Paint and extracts of his own
manufacture. He was a Swede
by birth. was IS years Of age. and
was an old soldier, having enlist
ed at bridgeport, Conn, in Aug
uSt, 1862. in the 18th. Conn, Inf,
and was honorably discharged
in July 10. 1865, at New Haven,
Conn
At the close of the war he went
to New York. later to Wisconsin
and to Dubuque, Iowa, and from
there went to kimball this state,
where he took up a claim, and fol
last few years of his life made
Milbank his headquarters. He
leaves daughter, Miss Frances
Weinberg, at Dubuque, but this
is the only relative that is known
here. The deceased was aOwnel
of small house and lot south OF
! the railroad track in this city
and had some $500 in one of the
banks here. While with some
rather peculiar characteristics
the deceased was a man of higl
moral ideals and was strictly
honorable in all his dealings, and
of the most kindly disposition
We understand that the remain,
will be buried at Hot Spring:
cemetery where so many of hi:
old soldier comrades lie.
