Death of Charles L. Woolweaver
Mr. Charles L. Woolweaver died on Saturday morning last, at his residence at the Ecker House, of which hotel he was the proprietor. He had been a sufferer for many years, and for months past it was known that his hold upon life was but frail. He was in the 50th year of his age. The funeral was held on Monday, and was in charge of the G. A. R. Post, of which he was an honored member. The interment was at the Old Cemetery.
Mr. Woolweaver was born in New York, coming to Gallipolis at an early age. In 1871 he was married to Miss Emma Berridge, and she survives him, together with two children, both boys. He was a soldier in the war of the Rebellion- a member of the 91st Ohio Infantry. After the war, and until his health failed, he was engaged as a mate upon the river, filling that position on many of the best boats.
He had many friends, and sincere sympathy is felt at his early death.

HEADQUARTERS CADOT POST No. 125
G. A. R. DEPARTMENT OF OHIO
Gallipolis, Ohio, Jan. 1, 1894
Whereas, God in His all wise providence has again called upon this Post for another member, and in His great wisdom has selected our comrade, Charles L. Woolweaver, and transferred him to the Grand Army on high where Thou, oh God, art the Supreme Commander.
Comrade Woolweaver had been in failing and very poor health for years, caused by exposure while in the line of duty in the army, he having entered the Union Army during the summer of 1862, serving in Company A, 91st O. V. I. Regiment until the close of the war in 1865. At the close of the war he received an honorable discharge from the army after his long and faithful service.
We say to the wife and widow of our late comrade, to put her faith and trust in God, that He alone in this hour can give consolation and hope, and to the two boys that are left fatherless, we say also to you that the only one path for you is to be good to your mother and follow the way that she will point out to you, having faith to believe that she will direct your paths to the God who has said that He will be a father to the fatherless, and that when mother and children are also called to pay the last tribute, that you may find your father in that bright and happy land to give you a welcome.
