OBITUARY

Last night one of East Peoria's oldest and most respected citizens passed away --- the venerable Henry F. Capps.
He was born in Hamlin, Germany, February 24, 1841, and when 11 years of age came to this section which has been his home ever since.
He was a veteran of the Civil War and saw four years of the most active service and was with Sherman on his March to the Sea. He was several times wounded, but soon back in the service. He was a devoted member of the G. A. R.
Soon after the war Mr. Capps bought the Camp Mill at the Messr Farm north of town and ran it for a number of years. Then he bought the Almiron S. Cole lot where the First National Bank is now located and ran the well known East Peoria Grist Mill until 1892.
Mr. Capps and family visited in Missouri and Oklahoma for some time but finally returned to the old home where his last days were passed in peace and contentment.

PENSION FILE DOCUMENTS

...about the last February or first half of March 1864, while the regiment was on a scout from Pulaski, Tennessee to Florence Alabama, mounted on horses and mules this affiant was while on the rear guard and in the discharge of his duty, thrown by his mule to the ground the mule falling upon his left leg and seriously bruised and strained the same; that he cannot furnish the testimony of the surgeon as to the injury for the reason he never went to the surgeon for treatment but used what was known as Mustang Linament, which finally took the swelling out of his limb but left some large blue veins which upon the March to the Sea with Sherman, seemed to have had a bad effect.

       ...Comes now Henry F. Capps who deposeth and says that he was a private in the 7th Ills. Inft. Company " H " that he was born February 24, 1841 in the city of Hamlin, Germany; that he moved from Hamlin, Germany to Twin Rivers, Wisconsin in the year 1855 at the age of 14. My Father had preceeded me 2 years to said place. I moved from there with my father to Atlanta, Ill. in the year of 1857 where I lived with my father until April 1861 when I inlisted in the U. S. Army as a private in Co. " H " , 7th Ills. Inft. where I served until the close of the war, and at the close of the war, I was discharged at Springfield, Ill.
       Affiant further states that his Father's name was August Capps and his Mother's name was Fredericka Capps, with whom I lived in the summer of 1850 in Hamlin, Germany and I was still living with them in 1860 at Atlanta, Ill. to where we had moved from Twin Rivers, Wis. and I still resided at Atlanta, Ill. until I inlisted in the Army of the Civil War in 1861.
       Affiant further states that all of their family records were lost that he has no written or printed records of his age or birth and that his father and mother are both dead and that he has two brothers living at this time, Ferdinand L. Capps of Chicago, Ill. and August L. Capps at New Landon, Mo. that he has one sister living, Eliza Rolfson at Hopedale, Ill. that he has one brother and two sisters dead. I lived in Ill. until the year of 1906 when I moved to Lawton, Comanche County, Oklahoma, where I still live.
       Affiant further states that he has lost his discharge and that the records at Washington D. C. will show the date of his enlistment and the date of his discharge, which at this time the affiant is unable to give. Affiant states that he served under Gen. Grant and was with him at the battle of Shiloh and the two battles at Corinth. I was transferred from Gen. Grant's command to Gen. Sherman's command and was with Gen.
