CAPTAIN SCALES,
CIVIL WAR HERO,
DEAD IN WYOMING
Death Comes to Well Known
Memphian at Sheridan, AC-
Cording to Telegram Reach

Capt Dabney NJ. Scales, one of the
Oldest and best known citizens OF Mem
phis died at o'clock Wednesday morn
ing in Sheridan, Wyo., according to a
telegram received Wednesday by his
Capt Scales would have been 10 years
old on June 1. He is survived by his
wife and three children, Mrs. Frank
Avery and Mrs, Yates Wexford of Mem
phis, and George W. Scales, of Sheri-
and his son were with him at the time
of his death. No funeral arrangements
have been made, but 1t is likely that
burial will take place in the West
Capt Scales had been in failing health
for some time. A good part of the past
few years he spent in Wyoming ana
only returned there a week ago Tues
day to complete his claim to a home
stead.
No man in Memphis had more con-
spicuous part in the development OF the
city and territory. Much of his time
was spent in enterprises for the better
ment of conditions and he was con-
stantly to be found laboring in behalf OF
worthy causes.
Capt Scales was a distinguished fig
ure in the ranks of the Confederate vet
Grams and was captain of Company A.
~. c. V.
At the outbreak of the Civil war he
was cadet in Annapolis and about to
graduate. He resigned from the acad-
envy and returned to his home in Holly
Springs, Miss. He then entered the
Confederate navy and was assigned as
midshipman on the ironclad Arkansas
under Captain, afterward Admiral, l.
N. Brown.
Hero of Battle.
The Arkansas was sent to relieve the
siege OF Vicksburg, of which Gen. Grant
was in command. The Arkansas was
Federal guns, and as 1t did so the flag
staff was shot away Young Scales,
who was in protected position, sprang
forward, and, under the fire of the ESQ
guns, nailed the flag to the mast.
The incident was so conspicuous Tor
gallantry that the story spread far and
wide, and young Scales became hero
in the eyes of both friend and foe.
Afterward he was assigned to the
Shenandoah, a privateer in the class
with the Alabama. Then he became a
lieutenant. 1t was the last vestige of
the Southern Confederacy to surrender.
The Shenandoah cruised for year aft
er the end of the war and. capturing a
ship out of San Francisco, learned OF
the surrender OF Lee.
Then Lieut. Scales took his ship to
the English channel and surrendered 1t
to the British navy.
He then returned to Memphis and
took up the practice of law, a profes--
sion which he followed with ability ara
distinction. About is years ago he
was a member of the state senate, but
in recent years, because OF advanced
age, he gradually retired from public
affairs aud the practice Of law.
