In Memoriam.
The subject of this sketch, E. Lowe,
was born in New Orleans, February,
1844. Enlisting in the Confederate Ar
my at such an early age, he had to en
list under an assumed name. After the
war, proficient in telegraphy he entered
tbe employ of the Mobile & Ohio Rail
road at Rives, both as operator and
agent in 1868, which position he held
for. more than twenty years. Feeble
health and impaired eye-sight forcing
him, reluctantly he exchanged his rail
way service for farm life. And there
he passed the greater part of his de
clining years with his beloved wife, nee
Fanny McAlister, reading the works of
Huxly, Spencer, Tyndal and Emerson.
A soldier, he was gallant and patriot
ic; a railway official, faithful and effi
cient; in masonry a martinet; in faith
and belief an Unitarian, and in private
life ruggedly honest, and an urbane
gentleman.
