LT DAVID O OAKES, 5th MINNESOTA INFANTRY, Co F

Death of David O Oakes – We regret to learn that Lieutenant David O Oakes of the
Minnesota Fifth regiment was killed before Corinth on the 28th of last month.

Lieutenant Oakes was son of our friend Charles Oakes, Esquire of St Paul. He received
a thorough commercial education, mostly under the superintendence of the late
Dr Borup. He was a young man of much promise and leaves a wife and family of
children, who together with his parents and friends, will receive the sympathy of
this community. Lieutenant Oakes was about 30 years of age at the time of his death.
