35Newspaper in Belvidere, Illinois; Clipping in the local public library. Another Victim of this Wicked Rebellion.

Our citizens were called upon last week to attend to their last resting place, in our village cemetery, the lifeless remains of Delos Albright, son of J. C. Albright, Esq., of this place. This young man recently died from disease contracted in camp, while in the military service of his country. How sorrowful and yet how unselfish and sacrificing has been the brief career of this noble young man, in defense of his beloved country. When the strong arm of this most unnatural and wicked rebellion was attempting to strike down the flag of his native land, he heard the call of imperiled country for help, and impelled by his patriotic daring, he volunteered for her defense on whatever battle-field she might need him. Little more than a year hence, Judge Boyce, of this county became engaged in organizing a company of cavalry, and young Albright was among the first to become an energetic and enthusiastic volunteer, and by his earnest influence largely added in soon filling up his company. The company became attached to the 9th Regiment Illinois Cavalry, under command of Col. Brackett. The history of this regiment seems to have been one of the most severe hardship and exposure, amid the rugged hills of Missouri and the foetid marshes and stagnant pools of Arkansas. The company of which young Albright was a member, made up almost exclusively from Boone County, under command for a long time of Capt. William Chilister, and recently of Lieut. J. W. Harper, of this place, has at all times, borne the reputation of being the choice company of the regiment (but its numbers have been sadly decimated by disease and death), and many of its brave boys are now sleeping the sleep that knows no waking. The 9th Ills. Cavalry have for some time past been stationed a Helena, Arkansas. It was here that young Albright, while he was with the most untiring devotion attending to his sick and stricken comrades, took a violent cold, which terminated fatally in congestion of the lungs, while on board the boat transferring him from Helena to St. Louis. His father learning of his dangerous illness proceeded at once to St. Louis, hoping to return his son to the kind and affectionate care of his own dear home, but alas! his first gaze upon the liniments of that some was to see them cold and rigid and his prostrate form stretched out in death.- With what horror and hatred mourning and sorrow must every patriot look upon a rebellion producing such sacrifices as this.

One year since Delos Albright, strong and vigorous, surrounded by the most pleasant associations, with prospects in the future bright and flattening, becoming a volunteer to aid his country in suppressing the wicked rebellion now raging in our land. He has discharged his duty. At the battle of Cherry Creek, Ark., he was wounded. His superior officers and comrades have pronounced him brave and generous, dutiful and kind - every inch a soldier. He is dead. We have seen his remains deposited beneath the green sod, and have turned away with the sad reflection that another of our noble and brave young men of this county has given his life to his bleeding country. We can but mourn his early fall - we sorrow and sympathize with his family and friends. His memory will be ever green in the recollections of this who knew him His age was 21 years, 4 mon., 14 days. He died on board the steamer Adriatic, Oct. 4th, 1862.
