In October, 1861, he enlisted In the
Eighth Georgia Battalion, Confederate
Army, and served as first sergeant OF
Company A, in Gist's Brigade. Wal
ker's Division, Hardee's Corps, and
for four stormy years he took an ac-
tive part in one of the most heroic
defenses of home and country that
history records.
! In July, 1864, he was captured and
sent as a prisoner Of war to Camp
Chase, Ohio, where he was held until
the close of the war in 1866. He re-

render, and moved to Texas in Feb
ruary, 1873, locating in Bryan, where
he had since resided.
He was charter member of Camp
j. B. Robertson, United Confederate

OF the camp.
AS a man he was quiet and unassum-
ing, but nevertheless one Of the hon
, est-hearted, high-minded men of the
community, whose life and actions per-
petuate the faith of man in his fellow
man.
His honor and integrity made him
loved and trusted, and the courage and
spirit OF the old soldier commanded
the respect Of his comrades and the
younger generations.
He was a man OF righteous percep-
tions, having been a member Of the
Methodist Church since the age of
fifteen years.

Mr.. ". B. BAKER DEAD
Quietly and Gently the Honored Old
Citizen and Soldier Passed
Into Eternal Rest.

Mr.. William Bats Baker, one OF
Bryan's Oldest and most honored citi-
zens, died at his home in this city at
l o'clock yesterday afternoon. He had
been a sufferer from paralysis for a
long time and had practically been
an invalid, but through all the months
, OF his illness he bore his Affections
with courage and fortitude born of
an unfaltering faith in a divine Provi-
dence. A few nights ago he received
second stroke and from that time to
the hour of his death remained in an
unconscious condition.
He was given every attention and
tender ministering that loving hands
and the physicians skill could provide,
but to no avail, and at the hour stated
the end came as gently and as peace
fully as the passing of a summer
cloud.
Although his friends and loved ones
had foreseen the end and were eX-
pecting the blow, it was none the less
hard to bear, and their sorrow is none
the less keen.
On March l, 1887, Mr.. Baker was
born in Covington, Newton County,
Georgia, where he grew to manhood,
and was married to Miss Rebecca Eliz-
abeth Eddleman on March 2, 1858,
