From the Miners' Journal, July 2, 1864:
Death
of a Soldier.--John
Powell, Corporal of Company F, 48th Regt. P.V.V., who was severely wounded in
the battle of the Wilderness, died in Emory Hospital, Washington, D.C., on the
26th of May, and was buried at Arlington Cemetery, Va., on the 27th of May. The
deceased was a son of William and Mary Powell, of Delaware, near Minersville,
Pa.; was born in South Wales, and came to this country about 13 years ago. At the
breaking out of the Rebellion he enlisted in the 48th Regt., and served under
General Burnside through the North Carolina campaign. He was in a great many
battles and was wounded in the second battle of Bull Run.--Having recovered he
joined his Regiment again, and was in Knoxville when that place was besieged by
Longstreet. He re-enlisted as a veteran at Knoxville, Tenn., January 1864, for
three years. Our departed young friend was not 23 years of age when he died;
was a brave and faithful soldier, and highly respected by all who knew him.
Having heard of his death, his father and mother decided at once to have his
body brought home, if possible, and on the 24th of June it was brought home by
his father and brother. On the 26th a large number of the neighbors assembled
in order to pay the last tribute of respect to the dead soldier, and his
remains were interred with military honors in the cemetery of the Welsh
Congregation Church, Minersville.

From the Miners' Journal, July 9, 1864:
Obituary--Straub--Killed
in action on the 17th of June, 1864, in Virginia, Horace F. Straub, of
Minersville, a member of Co. F, 48th Reg. P.V.V.
The following preamble and
resolutions were adopted at a regular meeting of the United Division No. 79 S.
of T., Minersville, held on the evening of July 7, 1864.
Whereas Brother Horace F. Straub has
ever been since his connection with us, a true Son of Temperance, and,
Whereas It is but proper that we
should publicly express our sentiments with regard to our late brother,
therefore,
Resolved, That we have heard with
sincere regret that brother Horace F. Straub was killed in action in Virginia,
on the 17th of June 1864, while gallantly advancing with his comrades upon the
enemy's works.
Resolved, That while we grieve and
lament the untimely death of our late Brother, we console ourselves with the
great thought that he died as became a Son of Temperance and a valiant soldier
of his country, with his face to the foe; that he fell in a holy and noble
cause--the cause of his country and his God.
Resolved, That we feel that we have
indeed lost a friend and Brother and by his death we are again admonished that
life is brief and that whatever our hands find to do for the good of man should
be done quickly for the night cometh wherein no man can work.
Resolved, That we cordially
sympathize with the family and friends of our late Brother in this, their
painful affliction.
Resolved, That a copy of these
resolutions be presented to the mother of our deceased Brother, and that they
be also published in the Miners' Journal.
