T. C. HOPKINS, PIONEER, DIES

Thomas C. Hopkins, Civil War veteran and for the last thirty-seven years a resident of Seattle, died yesterday at the home of his son-in-law, J. A. Duncan, 2601 Cascadia Avenue. Born in South Wales, England, March 7, 1841, Hopkins came to the United States early in life.

At the beginning of the Civil War he enlisted in the 22nd Regiment of Wisconsin volunteer infantry, which became a unit of General Hooker's Third Division. He took part in the Atlanta Campaign, the campaign of the Carolinas, and Sherman's march to the sea. He was captured in the battle of Franklin, Tenn., and was confined in the famous Libby Prison until exchanged a few months later in a general trade of prisoners between the North and South.

He was a past commander of James A. Sexton Post No. 103, Grand Army of the Republic, and was the oldest member of the Mount Baker Presbyterian Church.

He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Carrie R. Hopkins, a daughter, Mrs. John Alexander Duncan, and three grandchildren. The date for funeral services which will be conducted by the James A. Sexton Post, G. A. R., has not yet been announced.
