ANOTHER VICTIM - To the long and rapidly increasing list of
those linked to our community by ties of blood and bonds of
affection, who for us have laid down their lives for their
country, we painfully add that of William P. << Fairlamb>> , son of
the late Thomas V. << Fairlamb>>  formerly of our county, who was
instantly killed at the first battle of Cold Harbor, which
occurred during the past week. He was a member of Co. I., 17th
Regt. Pa. Cavalry, aged about 23 years, and been in the
service upwards of two years. He was a faithful and gallant
soldier, highly estimable in all the relations of life, and
his untimely death which involves the loss of a most devoted
soldier of the Republic, has carried the most poignant sorrow
to the hearts of his many relations and friends by whom he was
so ardently and so justly beloved. [CW]
