of his son E. W. Carson at

aged about 85 years, inter-
ment was made at Thermal.
Mr. Carson leaves to mourn
his death two sons, E. W.
Carson of Thermal, California
and J. W. Carson, Jr., of

Mr. Carson spent the great-
er part of his life in Lavaca

out between: the States he
enlisted from this county and
became a member of -Greene's
Brigade, he served through-
out the war with distinction,at
the close of the war he was
mustered out in this county,
where he resided atHackberry*
• and this community for a
. number of years until the
early fall of last year, he de-
cided to make his home with
his son in California where he
lived up to the time of his
death.
Mr. Carson was a man true
to his convictions, he lived for
a purpose and never let an
opportunity pass for the good
which would be of a benefit
I to himself and his fellowman.
He has now gone to his re-
ward, may his soul rest in
peace.
To those who are left to
mourn his death we extend
sympathy.
