Another Aged Veteran.
Passes Away.

News reached this community
last Friday of the death of Thomas
Swan, ST., which occurred at
Northwood, North Dakota, last
Thursday, May 18th, where he
had gone in search of medical
attention.. Mr.. Swan, who was
among the oldest members of this
reservation, had been in i'll health
for the ,,ast year due to comp!ica-
tions resulting from old age.
About a month ago he left for the
North Dakota city accompanied
by his son, Thomas Swan, to con-
suit a specialist in the, hope of
obtaining relief, the effort was
futile however and he died there
on Thursday last.
MIR. Swan was born at Gull
Lake, about twelve miles north of
the present city, of Brainerd, Mimi,
and for many years was resident
of old Grow Wing, later removing
to this reservation when it was set
aside for the Mississippi Chippe-
was, and where he has since, re-
sided. Mr.. Swan was a veteran
of the Civil war. having served
with vaIor as member of Co. 6,
9th MINI. Vol. Infantry until the
close of the war. He was q man
of kindly nature whom it was al
ways a pleasure to meet, and his
hospitality and genial disposition
endeared him to the hearts of al:
who knew him. He was about, 80
years of age at the time of his
death. He is survived by his aged
wife ard one son, Thomas Swan,
Jr., who was at bis bedside when
The end came.
The remains were brought here
for burial and the funeral took
place last Sunday afternoon from
St. Columba's Episcopal church.
The casket was draped with the
Stars and Stripes, while ex-service
men acted as pallbearers. Rev.
Fred Smith preached the funeral
Grafton in the Chippewa language.
Rev. E. G. Kah O Sed delivered
q funeral Grafton in English, both
paying high tribute to the de-
ceased's integrity as a citizen and
soldier. Taps were sounded as
the body was being lowered TO its
=,
final resting place. ,.

Memorial Day.

We understand that neither the
Mission or District schools here
have prepared any program for
the OCCASION, owing to the fact
that the Mission school will dismiss
for the summer vacation on Fri
day next and the pupils will re-
turn home. The District school
likewise has made no preparation
to assist in the exercises of the
day, therefore the services this
year WILDE confined to prayer at
the cemeteries, decorating of the
soldiers graves, with music by
the band.
Memorial Day stands paramount
among the many national holidays
in which the American people
pride or should pride themselves
10 observing. Considering that it
commemorate the patriotic devo-
ton and sincere loyalty of Ameri
can manhood; to them who offered
themselves on the altar of the
country's need, ready to make the
supreme sacrifice for God, home
and country, and when treason was
seeking to dismember the Union
and last but not least to wipe out
the dark stain of slavery from this
fair land and to the end that every
man, woman and child should
enjoy the benign blessing of life,
liberty and the pursuit of happi
ness.
The fact is to be deplored now
ever that there seems to be q
growing disposition of neglect on
the part of some people in the
matter of taking more earnest and
active part in the proper obser
vance of the day. During the
time that the White Earth board
ing school was being operated at
this agency under government
the school faculty and the
pupils were always fully prepared
and rendered an elaborate program
becoming the occasion. The faculty
of St. Benedict's Mission school
have never missed being on hand
Oh such occasions with a splendid
The rank anil file of
the G. A. r. are growing gradual
~ thinner, and White Earth will
soon bid farewell to its last hero.
The members of the S. O. V. as
also members of the Legion should
exercise active and energetic in
terest on the sacred occasion of
Memorial Day, and the general
public should not permit their
patriotic valor to lessen as the
lays grow apace but pledge them
selves more resolutly to sacredly
commemorate the peerless deeds
Of them who offered their all for
the preservation of the Union,
liberty and humanity.
