Funeral of A. J. Addington
The funeral of A. J. Addington, who died at one o'clock yesterday, as announced in the STATE JOURNAL, took place from the First Baptist Church, of which he was a member, at half past eleven o'clock this morning. His remains were escorted to Petersburg depot this afternoon, and sent by rail to Norfolk for internment. They will received at Norfolk by Knights of Pythias that city.
Mr. Addington has been a resident of Richmond ever since he was sixteen years of age. He was forty-three years old at the time of his death. He leaves a wife and and two children to mourn his loss. He was a worthy and enterprising citizen, and his loss will be seriously felt by the entire community. He was a member of Syracuse Lodge K. of P., Pocahontas Tribe, I.O.R.M., Independent Order of Mechanics, and of the Independent Order of Odd-Fellows, many members of these orders attending his funeral. Before the inauguration of the paid fire department, Mr. Addington was an active member of the volunteer department of this city, and acting for many years as the captain of the Liberty Company, No. 1. By his indomitable energy and industry he accumulated a considerable property, and it is a consolation to know that while his loss to his family is irreparable they are not left entirely destitute of the comforts of the world.
