Ferree of Company K, Ist District of Co- lumbia Volunteer Regiment, and color ser- geant of the regiment, was brought from Montauk to this city yesterday, and now lies encoffined at the residence of his parents, No. 1720 13th street.

There will be a short serviee at the. resi- dence, 1720 13th street, at 2 o’elcck, after which the remains. will be. taken to the Church of Our Father, corner 13th and L streets northwest, where a more extended service will be held at 2:30 o'clock, These services. wiil be conducted by Past Depart- ment Chaplain Stevens of the G.
