citizens, on last Saturday after.
noon about five O'Clock, when
Capt. John 5. Quar,es passed
away at his home on East Broad
st.
Capt. Quarles had been in
failing health for some years,
but was able to walk up town
and take his usual exercise up Ia
a month ago. but since then he
bad been gradually growing
weaker. The sad news of his
demise was received with a feel.
ing of genuine regret by his
many friends and relatives in
this and adjoining counties, for
he was widely known and admir-
ed by a large circle. The funeral
services were conducted by Rev.
A. }. Cole and attended by a
large and representative body of
friends and relatives of the de,
ceased. The remains were in
tered in the city cemetery at
four o'lock Sunday afternoon.
Capt, Quarles was SO years
of age and had spent his entire
life in Jackson and Putnam
counties, with the exception of
the four years spent in the SER
vice of the Southern Confederacy.
He had been a resident of Cooke
vile for the past Is years, hav-
ing move here from Gainesboro,
his native town. He vas mar
ried in 1875 to Miss Fannie De-
Witt of (3ainesboro, who died
several years ago. He is surviv-
ed by three sons, John g., and
Capt James T. Quarles of
Cookeville and Luke G. Qnarles
of Gainesboro; also by two sis
ters, Mrs, T l.. Robinson and
Miss Susan Quarles. both of
whom made their home with
him. as did Miss Annie Trigg
Robinson, his niece.
Capt. Qnarles enlisted as a
private in the 9Th Tennessee e
Infantry Of the Confederate
army, April oath, 1861. and was
paroled at Washington. Ga, four
years and sixteen days later.
He was promoted to the office
of lieutenant soon after his en-.
listment. and after the battle of
Murfreesboro. in which engage.
ment he received eleven wounds,
was promoted 10 the rank of
captain. He was in Johnson's
Division, under the direct com
mand of Gen. Cheatham Of
Nashville, and when this divis-
ion surrendered. he with num-
ber of others were allowed the
option of surrendering. on trans
fering to Gen. DlDrells com.
mand for the purpose of escort
ing President Jefferson Davis to
the Mixican border and he chose
the latter. He refused the parole
offered him at Washingtad, Ga. j..
in 1864. until he and his COM
rades in arms were allowed to re
tain their equipment. He loved
the South and the cause for
which he fought. and a more
valiant soldier, nor a more mod.
est one. ever marched to the bat.
tie. He will be greatly missed
in his community. and will long
be remembered for the gallan,
part he played in his country's
history during the dark DAYS OF
