(New York World.) R Col. Alexander Henry Wray, who died in Pat- chogue, L. I, in his eighty-ninth year, was a veteran of the Civil War. He never joined the Grand Army of the Republic. Though entitled to a pension he never drew one until 1907. Thereafter for twenty- three years he regularly sent the amount of his pension, each month as it was received, to the Confederate Veterans' Home in Atlanta. He stopped this practice only last year, upon learning that there was a plan on foot to put up a plaque in the home in memory of his gifts. It seems to us that in his quiet Colonel Wray did a great deal the new is and modest to maintain tled communities.
