Warsaw's Post of the Grand Army of the Republic Now Numbers But Nineteen

Six of These are Non-Residents; History of Post and Women's Relief Corpsby Edwin C. Aborn

Some conception of the Grim Reaper's steady and relentless march through the ranks of the Warsaw G.A.R. may be formed when it is announced that at this writing but nineteen veterans now comprise the membership of Warsaw Post No. 114. Of this number but thirteen are residents of Warsaw and its environs. Of the out-of-town members Claypool has 1; North Webster 1; Mentone 1; Bourbon 3. All have passed the octogenarian era and some register well up in the nineties. The nineteen members of Warsaw Post No. 114 at this writing are: Benjamin Carr, Samuel Campbell, Jacob Elginfritz, Jasper Frush, J. H. Hankins, H. Knickerbocker, CHARLES LINN, John Nighswander, John Peterson, Noah Puntenney, Alvin Robinson, I. W. Sharp, E. L. Seamans, all of Warsaw; William H. Cattell, Mentone, C. F. Bert, Claypool, James G.
