Player, one of our old eat and best citizens, died at biB residence n this city yesterday morning, about 3 o'clock, after a ; somewhat protracted ill- nesa.' Mr. Player, who was about 65 years of age, was born and raised in the Holly Shelter section of Pender, formerly New. Hanover county, and came to this city to ive between twenty-five and1 thirty years ago, where he engaged first in merchac-' dizing and then in the business of Inspec tor of naval stores. In July or August, 1861, when the excitement incident to the ate war was about attaining its height, he,' with others, went to work and rai sed and organized a cavalry company for local, de fence, which was afterwards known as the Howard Cavalry, aud of which W. ,C. Howard was made Captain,: and Mr. Player Sr. 2nd Lieutenant This compaDy saw service ' at Fort Fisher and .m Onslow county, and continued in tha performance of the duty for which it was organized until tbe local companies were required to enter the regular service, when be was re lieved in consequence of being overage!1 It was during the time that the Howard Cavalry was on duty in .Onslow that be formed one , of five Volunteers from his company consisting of himself,, who originated the scheme, and Messrs. J. C. . Heyer, George t Kidder, Whiteford Bowden and John Jones who joined Captain Hill's . Scotland Neck Cav alry Company in a perilous expedition against about two thousand Federal troops stationed . about two miles from a place called - Sbepardsvllla : These brave , men attacked the picket lines of the e nemy; killed a number of tbe i Federals and cap tured nine prisoners. This feat was e compii8bed on Monday, the 7th day of April, 1862, and was considered at the time an extremely hazardous undertaking. Mr, Player had the ' reputation of being a capi tal soldier, always J ready for any enter prise, and prompt and energetic in the dis cbarge of every duty. " Two years ago Mr. Player was appointed by the Legislature, upon the recommenda tion of. his ward, a member of the Board of Audit and Finance of the city, which position be held at the time of bis death. He was a deacon in the First Presbyterian Cburcbv and in all therelatiohVi oflife sustained a reputation for; honesty, integ rijy and straightforward dealings with his fellow men.
