Death of a Gallant Old Civil War Veteran Yesterday

George Thomas, a venerable and respected citizen, died at 4:25 o'clock yesterday evening at the King's Daughters hospital after an illness of several weeks from the infirmities of advanced age.

The remains have been taken to the home of a sister, Mrs. Andrew Augustin, Sr., 414 north Poplar street, the funeral to take place from there at 1:30 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, the burial to be at Fairmount.

Mr. Thomas was a veteran of the 33d Indiana Infantry in the civil war and was a good and worthy citizen.
