New York Infantry, which was a part of Gen. Daniel E. Sickles' brigade and when the general was wounded at the battle of Gettysburg, Morgan was one of the four soldiers who carried him off the field.  Comrade Morgan participated in all the battles in which the army of the Potomac was engaged.  His company went into the battle of Antietam with 74 men and came out with 41.  When General Hooker was transferred to the west, Morgan, who was on detached duty, accompanied that gallant officer, as a member of his staff, to Lookout Mountain, and participated in the memorable battle above the clouds.  At another time Morgan was temporarily detached and for several months served with a New York battery.  On the 5th. of February, 1864, he re-enlisted as a veteran for three years, was appointed sergeant and was honorably discharged at San Francisco, Cal., October, 1865, having, while on detached duty, crossed the plains with the 18th. United States Infantry, his last service in the army being at Golden Gate.  From April, 1861, to October, 1865, four years and six months' service was given his country before he was 19 years old.   After his discharge from the army he became a wood-workman, his specialty being carriage building, and worked at different times in various parts of the country.  He also sailed a season or two on the lakes and has made three trips across the Atlantic since the war.  He came to Mansfield about 20 years ago, as foreman for Kintner's carriage works.  He later worked with the McCoy Bros., at house-building and upon the completion of the Memorial building he received the appointment of janitor and policeman and so efficiently performed his duties that he was retained throughout the management of the different boards of trustees.  Sam, as he was familiarly called, was kind-hearted, generous and obliging and never so happy as when he was doing someone a good service -- especially his G.A.R. comrades or the management of the hospital association.  He was well-liked by al who knew him and his death causes sorrow, not only to comrades-in-arms, but to hosts of those who had come to know and respect him.  He leaves a widow, but now children.

HIS NECK BROKEN -- An accident which resulted in the instantaneous death of Simon Nummaker occurred  this morning about 10 o'clock at the home of Mr. & Mrs. Conrad Coul on North Mulberry Street.  Simon Nunmaker, 41 years of age, was engaged in picking cherries in a tree in front of the Coul residence and was warned against the unsafe condition of the limbs by Mrs. Coul, as the tree was old.  He was also warned by the neighbors, who watched him, not to attempt to walk out on the limbs, but to draw the cherries in with a rake, but Nunmaker assured them that their fears were groundless.  He stepped from the ladder out on one of the limbs, which was about thirty feet from the ground and directly over the brick pavement.  "Don't go there, Simon!" cried one of the neighbors and he replied:  "These limbs are safe enough."  At that instant the limb broke and he was hurled to his death, turning a couple of somersaults before he reached the pavement.  He alighted on the left side of his head and arm and never moved after he struck the pavement.  Dr. Stevens was hastily summoned from his office, a short distance from the scene, and found that the neck had been broken and that death had been instantaneous.  The left arm had been fractured, the bones protruding through the wrist.  The remains were placed on a cot and carried to the rear of the building in the yard to await the coming of the coroner.  Several little folks were picking cherries which had fallen directly underneath the limb and the unfortunate man in his fall narrowly escaped crushing the life out of these little ones.  Mr. Nunmaker was an unmarried man and has lived in this city for the past fifteen years.  He was a very religious man and greatly given to thought and talk on religious subjects.  Last Saturday he was in Meily Bros.' store on North Main street, and stated to Mr. Meily that he was now ready to face his God at any time.  He had been working at various places and was very apt and willing as a worker.  He has two brothers residing in this city, John U. Nunmaker, of Spring Mill Street, and David H. Nunmaker, of 132 Johns' Avenue;  also two sisters, Mrs. Jacob Taylor and Mrs. Ephraim Hill.  Mr. Coul was very careful as regards the limbs, as he considered them unsafe and he assisted Nunmaker in rigging up a ladder which would reach the top of the tree and, after giving him special instructions not to attempt to go out on the limbs he left.  Numaker, however, disregarding his warning, went across the street and secured another ladder, stating that the limbs were perfectly safe and sound and, stepping from this ladder out on the limb, he met his death.
