The Monument to Capt- Ellerbreck.
The monument to be erected to the
memory of Capt. Ellerbrock is completed
acd will be placed in position in Oakdale
Cemetery to-morrow or on Monday. It
was made in this city by Mr. John Maun
der, and is ot the handsomest Italian
marble. It is composed of seven pieces,
the final being a beautiful ura, as fol
lows: Bottom base, second base, dye,
flint, column, cap and urn. The monu
ment with its base stands twelve feet
high. On the face of the dye is the fol
lowing inscription:
"The citizeas of Wilmington, the sev
eral Fire Companies and the Christian
Association of St. Paul's Eranglical
Lutheran Church have erected this mon
ument to the memory of Capt. Wo. A.
Ellerbrock, a native of . Hambu rg, Ger
many, who lost his life in doing service at
a fire corner of Front and Dock streets,
April 11th, 1880. Aged 24 years and
24 days " On the reverse side of the
dye is a dog in a crouching position and
just above it the following inscription:
"Faithful unto Death."
It will be remembered that Capt EU
lerbrock's faithful dog died by his side,
apparently aware of the impending dan
ger, for when the remains of the unfor
tunate young man were exhumed Irom
under the debris of the fallen walls the
sagacious dog was found by his master's
side with a piece of bis coat in his mouth,
which was evidence to every one's mind
that the dog tried to pull his master out
from the building. . .

Mr. J. McD Frenchj of the firm of B.
Godwin A Co., Lumberton, the sufferers
by the recent fire in that place, was in
the city to day, and from him we learn
that the fire was undoubtedly the work
off an inoondiary. Th goods burned
in the warehouse had been ' unloaded
from the train only a few hours before
and were to hate been shortly removed
to their store up town. We earnestly
hope that tho villains who perpetrated
this act of arson may be caught and re
ceive the punishment provided bylaw
for all such characters. I
