ROLL OF HONOR.


"It is sweet and honorable to die for one's country." Thus it can be written over the graves of many thousands of men who now sleep the "sleep of death" in soldiers' graves. Sangamon county has furnished her quota of noble dead, as will be seen by the following roll, embracing names of some of the bravest and best of her sons. They are gone, but their names are reverently remembered by a grateful people. They are gone, but their deeds are re- membered. Let them sleep on, while their praises are being sung through all coming time. Following are the names:

Colonel Simon P. Ohr, died September 14; 1864.


Major Frederick W Matteson, died August 8, 1862.


Captain Henry W. Allen, killed by a Sergeant.
