Death of Rev J H Cleaveland Linked to Vicksburg Charge
The notice mourns Rev J H Cleaveland of the 83d Regiment who fell during a fierce assault on fortifications at Vicksburg. Friends in the city share sorrow for his early death. Also noted is the return visit of Mr W E Keres, a gunner on the gun boat Indianola, who after Libby prison hardships remains healthy and ready for service. Preparations for Cochran Fourth of July picnic are described with Judge Holman to speak and a cotillion band hired. A new patent letter envelope by J N Milburn is advertised as a superior design with a square back and improved sealing flap.
