W. A. Brand, Postmaster of this city, died last evening after several months’ illness. He will be missed much in the community, having been a man of great public spirit and generosity. He was during the war, a soldier, holding the position of Lieutenant in the 66th Ohio, and served more than four years. During that time he made a reputation as a war correspondent over the nom de plume of “D. N. Arbaw,” and has since given much attention to writing reminiscences and collations of war history. Since 1865, and until February last, he was part owner and editor of the Citizen and Gazette. He was a Past Great Sachem and Great Representative of the Improved Order of Red Men, Past Grand and Past Patriarch of the Odd Fellows and Past Chancellor of the Knights of Pythias. It is expected that the Great Council will attend the funeral which takes place on Saturday morning at 10 o’clock. (Handwritten: Cic (Cin/Cir) Gazette.
