DEATH OF WILLIAM LOGAN.
William Logan, a veteran of the Civil War, and for many years the janitor of the McCallum Street Combined School at Haines mid McCallum streets, died last Saturday, after a brief illness, at the home of his son, William M. Logan, 301 Queen street. He was born in Montgomery county, this State, on September 7, 1822, and came to Philadelphia when 28 years of age. Soon after his arrival here he joined the Market Square Presbyterian Church, where he was a faithful communicant for nearly a quarter of a century. Afterwards he joined the Wakefield Church, worshipping there for two years, and then he became a charter member of the First Congregational Church, where he continued an honored and serviceable member until his death. His wife died about four years ago. He enlisted September 12, 1861, as a corporal; after honorable discharge he enlisted from the field, and arose to the captaincy [his pension papers give his rank as First Lieutenant] of Company E, 95th Pennsylvania Volunteers. He was a member of Ellis Post, No. 6, G. A. R.; the Wesleyan Beneficial Association and Germantown Lodge, No. 38, K. of P. Mr. Logan was in bright spirits up to the hour of transition, and his passing was gently marked by the sweet assurance of a resurrection in Him whom he served and loved. With a strong mind and a well-preserved body, he verified the promises of the Twenty-third and the One Hundredth and Twenty-eighth Psalms, and entered his eternal estate like a shock of corn fully ripe. The service at the home of his son Wednesday, in charge of Dr. Evans, of the Congregational Church, was hugely attended by the comrades of his G. A. R. Post and associates in church and social life. Interment was at Ivy Hill Cemetery.
