CAROl,lNA'S Loss.

South Carolina sustained great
loss in the deaths Of two Of her sons
whose lives ended "on the border"
but recently. These young men were
Sergt. II. T.. Gonzales. Of Columbia,
and Private Preston }. Wilson. also
OF Columbia. 1t was not our pleas
nre and privilege to know personally
either OF these young men, but Scrgt.
Gonzales was well known All over
south Carolina professionally as 4
member Of the stan Of writer's OF the
Columbia state. His record was an
'nviahlc onc--a record OF which one
or double his years might we'll have
been proud And his companion in
arms, and in death. was a young man
OF splendid parts. so we gather from
the articles that have appeared re-
Garding him and his service in the
army and his previous life.
The Courier gricvcS with :hc be-
r'a'rd ones in tn" passing OF these
two young men. How painfully true
is the old saying. and how Oft it is
demonstrated. that "dcath loves a
shining mark" They have not. how
ever. died in vain.
Young Gonzales was a son OF VIM.
T., Gonzales, now minister TO Cuba.
whose brother. the lameutcd \. G..
GohHalcS. lost his life in the service
or his state in a sense no less marked
than that which marked the passing
OF his nephew. 70 the douhlv be-
TeaVel ones the tcndercst sympathy
Of South Cardinals lcoplc goes out
IN full measure. On he altar OF our
state one was ruthlcssl sacrificed
while on the nations altar our State
Is bcrcft OF a noble Sou. Yet neither
their lives nor their deaths were in
vain. The state and the nation are
better for their having lived. and in
their untimely passing there came
sorrow that has been and mist be
hallOwcd to the 1cttcrincnt Of those
who knew them and VII, know OF
them.
Both Scrgt Gonzales and Private
wilson ioll victims Of pneumonia.
contracted while In border service in
the National Guard Their deaths
occurred far from their homes, and
the bodies were brought to loved ones
in Columbia. where all that was NOR
tai OF them was laid to rest in the
SOIL Of the old state they loved.
