Mr. H. Herring died at his home in this city on Wednesday, Aug. 17. The funeral was held at the Methodist church at two o'clock on Friday afternoon and the body in that long last sleep was laid away in the new G.A.R. cemetery awaiting the final resurrection morning.
Henry Herring was born in New York about sixty ago and there was married to the affectionate wife who survies him. About one year after their marriage they moved to Michigan, where in 1861 Mr. Herring enlisted in the 7th Michigan Infantry, and was wounded by a shell in the battle of Antiam, an engagement in which more than half the regiment was disabled. He received an honorable discharge and soon regaining his health, he re-enlisted in the same company and regiment and was promoted to the rank of sergeant-major. More than 150,000 men were killed, wounded or taken prisioner in the battle in which his regiment was engaged. Gen. Shafter, commander at Santiago, entered the army as first lieutenant in that regiment. After the war Mr. Herring lived in Dakota nine years, and then moved to Snohomish and engaged in business and where he lived up to the time of his death. The deceased had been a sufferer from consumption for years, and had been confined to his home for about six months, suffering intensely, but bearing the pain without complaint. For several weeks death was hourly expected, and on Wednesday morning at about eight o'clock, the grim messenger came and he passed peacefully away. Mr. Herring realized that Death's heavy hand was on him, and several times had expressed his belief in God and his readinessed to die. The funeral was held under the auspices of the Morton Post G.A.R. of which the deceased was an honored member, and a large number of friends followed all that was motral of Mr. Herring to its last resting place.
