Attends
Son’s Funeral
Jan. 14, 1862 — William Wagon-
ner, a private in Company K, Ring-
gold Regiment, was summoned
home to Warminster, week before
last, to attend the funeral of his
little son, aged about 4 years. The
child died on New Year’s day.
The father received word of the
melancholy event, and was grant-
ed a furlough of several days to
attend the funeral. He arrived at
his home, about 1 o’clock on Fri-
day night, before the funeral,
walking all the way from Phila.,
where he arrived too late to take
the last train on the North
Penn’a Railroad.
