Col. Hopkins continued his service with his. regi ment up to the fateful day that Lee surrendered to Gen. Grant. During this service he was cited for gallantry. In reminiscing several vears ago. Col. Hopkins Is quoted as saying: “We had all read and seen pictures of the formal surrender of captured armies, and we expected that Lee and his vet- erans would march out and lay down | their arms as Cornwallis did at York- {town. We thought it was due to our long and arduous servigé that we should see its results, ahd when we found we were to be about-faced and | marched northward. without even a Zlimpse of our late enemies, -there was much murmurifig and discontent. But Gen. Grant was much wiser and greater than all of us. He knew how we felt, but he alsa knew that we and the men of the South henceforth were to be fellow countrvmen again, and his magnanimous soul refused to sub- ject Lee and his army to any humilia- tion ‘that could be avoided. It was evidence of true greatness, and we see now that he was right.” Studied at Columbia. Following the war Col. Hopkins went to New York, where he studied law at Columbia University, graduat- ing from there in 1867. He was ad- mitted to the bar the same y¢ay, and after practicing law there for six vears he came to this city, where he has resided ever since.

WASHINGTON BALTIMORE A & ANNAPOLIS ELECTRIC RAILROAD COMPANY MAN 1S CONVICTED, BEATING CHARGED Held for Manslaughter, Says He Was Forced to Confess. “Framing” Alleged. By the Associated Press SANDUSKY. Mich , June .19.—Sani- lac County's wolitical hatreds, which boiled up several weeks ago when two | State policemen were accused of beat. ing up Pearl Dorland to obtain his | confession to the slaying of 19-year- |old Roy Lee at a country drinking | party, have subsided. Dorland was found guilty of manslaughter by a jury in Circuit Court last night and will be sentenced today hy Judge X. A. Boomhower, On the night of March 6 Lee was found slain in an automobile at the Willlam Sager farm home, where Dorland, his wife, Lizzie. and several men and women were drinking and | making merry. It was first thought to be a case of suicide. At Lee's funeral, two days later, Lizzie Dorland took her life by swal- lowing polson, fearing revelations which might be made in the investi- gation. Sheriff John A. Johnson then an- nounced he had obtained a confession from Dorland. which stated that Dor- land shot Lee after his wife com- plained Lee had bothered her with his attentions. Dorland repudiated the | confession and brought formal charges of assault and battery against State Troopers Fred G. Armstrong and C. Addison. The policemen, he said, brutally assaulted him to obtain the confession The whole county took sides on the matter. Johnson's political opponents declared he was trying to ‘“raflroad” Dorland in order to strengthen him- self politically in the county. During the . trial, which lasted nearly four weeks, Dorland’s purport- D. C. SATURDAY, d confession was admitted to the rec- ord. Coungel for Dorland declared they would offer motion for a new trial -today. No date has been set for hearing of the assault case, which was postponed until completion of the slaying trial. The maximum sentence for manslaughter in Michigan s 2 years' imprisonment. COMOR. HEINER GIVEN POST AT QUANTICO, VA. Medical Officer Who Led to Capt.
