The Travels of Daniel Paul, 1902

Posted By on May 30, 2018

During the Civil War, Daniel Paul served as a Private in the 130th Pennsylvania Infantry, Company H.  After the Civil War, he moved to Michigan, but kept in touch with his Lykens Valley friends and relatives via correspondence to the editor of the Lykens newspaper.

Three results of that correspondence from the year 1902 are reported below:

Daniel Paul of Constantine, Michigan, was a caller at this office on Saturday and renewed his subscription.  He has been a subscriber to the Register for more than 25 years , and it keeps him thoroughly posted on the affairs of his native town.  He and his daughter, Mrs. Munson, attended the national encampment of the G.A.R., at Washington, D.C., two weeks ago.  They had a delightful trip, and carried home with them pleasant memories of familiar scenes and faces.

SPECIAL TO THE STANDARD.

Daniel Paul, wife and daughter of Michigan, arrived in this vicinity last week and are meeting with many old and warm friends.  They were entertained on Monday by his cousin, H. R. Shoop of Small Valley.  Mr. Paul is a charter member of Jacksonville Council, No. 80, O. U. A. M., and assisted in its organization in 1866, and we are pleased to say, is still a member.  The family will visit their many friends in this end of the county before returning home.
