A Tribute.
Of love and respect passed by
the soldier boys of Co. ''Ml ou
the. death of E. P. Minter.
In. behalf of all the many
frionds and comrades of E. P.
Minter I tako this opportunity
to express the tender love and
spmpathy wo J. ield for him.
. There was nota soldier in the
4th Regiment who was more uni-
versally lovetl than he then to
think of the way he was carried
off in we might say the short
space of a few hours taken from
our midst before we. hud time to
give bim while living our suffi-
cient aid.
Wo therefore extend to those
who are near and dear to him
as well while dead as when he
was living our tenderestlove in
their affliction and do so hope
that they will see in his life that
noble trait. of self sacrifice and
forbearance which is worthy of
imitation and should be cherish-
ed by us all.
Respectfully
Ed Duckworth..

A sickly dispondent weak

strengtbening the kidney s.liver
stomaoh and bowels the blood is

in the body and brain is quickly
