SAMUEL W. PEGG
Many of our readers will hear with regret of the death of Mr. Samuel W. Pegg, a former resident of this city, whose kind and gentle manners and gentlemanly deportment won the hearts of all who were favored with his acquaintance. He went from this city some four years since, having accepted a situation as a chief clerk in a western town. At the breaking out of the rebellion he joined a New York regiment, but being taken sick while the regiment was in camp near New York, he was rejected by the examining board. But his unwavering patriotism would not allow him to remain inactive, and he came to this city about a year since, and while here received an appointment as hospital steward on the U. S. iron-clad Patapsco. He was actively engaged in his duties until after Dupont's attack on Charleston, when his health failed him and he came home to die. He lingered with the consumption for a few weeks and died at the residence of his father, the Rev. John Pegg, Grosvenor Corners, Schoharie Co., N. Y."
