Death of John A. 1 onu.
Washington, Dec. 27. General
John A. Logan died at three minu
tes before 3 o'clock this afternoon,
Cf inflaniatory rheumatism.' His
death, which came with startling
suddenness to his family and
friends, had not beon unexpected
by his physicians for some days.
The lurking tendency to brain
complications which had been
present in greater or less degrees,
and constantly increasing in sever
ty during his entire illness, had
prepared them to expect the worse.
The racking pains which he suf
fered during tho early days of his
illness, yielded to treatment, but
lift Lim in a weak and exhausted
condition from which he never ral
lied, and upon which tho fovtr
preyed with increasing violence
until the hour of his death. After
last midnight his pulse grew weak
er and weaker, aud at 4 o'clock
this morning his condition was
such as to cause great fear of his
immediate) death. After this he
rallied somewhat and at tho con
sultation which was held at 9
o'clock . this morning, his . pulse
was found to be some what strong
er, but his general condition was
nor such as to give any hope of
ultimate recovery. The physicians
Rgain met in consultation at 1:30
p. m , when it was apparent tho
patient was rapidly sinking and
conld live but a few hours. At 2
o'clock the generat revived snfii
cicntly to recoguize his wife who
has been at Lis bedside night aud
day during his entire illness. As
she spoke to him, ho looked up
into her face, and all who were
present knew that ho recognized
her. This wa5 the last manifestat
ion of consciousness, lie then
wearily closed his eyes aud sank
again into a lethargic sleep from
which ho never ifXvoko.
