COL. 4. G. STURGTSS.

COL. a. G. STURGTSS.
After several years of suffering as
the result of an attack Of articular
rheumatism, death came to the relief
of Col. A. G. Sturgiss on last Friday
morning at three o'clock, his passing
to the beyond being without apparent
pain, just a quiet. peaceful transition
from the cares and pains of the earth
ly to the heavenly world.
Col. Sturgiss was the son of Rev.
and Mrs. Alfred G. Sturgiss and was
born at Meadville, Pa, on September
6, 1916. At the age of sixteen years
while a student, he enlisted in the
Union army, this being in the year
1852, serving for number of months
thereafter in the S4th and the 177th
Ohio Volunteer Infantry, from which
unit he was discharged the same year
| of his enlistment. He re-enlisted in the
| service in 1864 and the following year
he was promoted to a non-commis-
| stoned office in the ranks, being hon
orably discharged at the close of the
war, after valiant service. Following
the close of hostilities he engaged in
business activities, and in 1870 he
became prosecuting attorney in Mon
ongalia county, West Va. The same
year he was married to Miss Emma A.
/
Wagner, of Morgantown, to which
union there were three children born.
Mary Frances, deceased; Mrs. E. L.
Boardman, Of Washington, D. c., and
Mr.. William A. Sturgiss, of Oakland.
In 1873 Col. Sturgiss and his family
removed from Morgantown to Oak
land, where he established the Stur
giss Pharmacy, and where he contin-
ued until the day of his death to re-
side.
AS an aide on the staff of the State
Commander of the Grand Army of the

Post of that organization, the title of
Colonel was conferred upon him by
a general order issued by the head of
the state organization. In the church
Col. Sturgiss took an active part I'M
til illness prevented his attendance
upon the services. AS a member of the
| G. A. R. he rendered valuable service
to his old comrades and as Knight
of Pythias he was enthusiastic in the
welfare of the lodge and the members
thereof. He was an active Republican
and exceedingly loyal to his party and
its principles.

the fact. Mr.. Dewitt is a farmer and
live stock dealer of District No. 10,
where he owns and operates one of the
finest farms of the community. He
also engages in the buying and SELL
ing of wool at certain seasons of the
year, and is probably the heaviest
purchaser of this commodity in the
county. He is a splendid business man
and at all times endeavors to do the
right thing. He has been affiliated
with the Republican party for a long
number of years and is popular with
the masses of the people.

their friends may obtain the blanks
from them there or at any other time
upon application. This registration
is highly important if a record is to
be made of the man power furnished
