    • 2 G.A.R. Vets Die Same Day
      Pair of Wenatchee Octogenarians Taken by Death.
      Wenatchee, was., Aug. 31. – The fast dwindling ranks of the local G.A.R. post were thinned still more by the deaths of A.W. Brewer, age 80, and Adolph Walther, age 89, both of whom passes away late yesterday.
      Mr. Brewer was taken ill two weeks ago while in the east on a visit with his children. He enlisted with the 128th Indiana infantry when 18 years old and fought all through the Civil war, holding the rank of corporal. He leaves his widow, five sons and six daughters. Funeral services were held today with Daniel McCook post conducting the rites.
      Mr. Walther died after a week’s illness at his home on Maple avenue. Until an attack of kidney trouble a week ago he had not complained about his health. He had resided here 17 years. He enlisted in the Union army in Wisconsin at the outbreak of the war. He leaves a son, two daughters and a brother.
      The Spokesman-Review, Spokane, Washington. Friday, 4 September 1925.
