      MAJ. NOYES RAND

      major Rand, a gallant soldier, died at his hoe, in El Paso, Tex., march 19, 1911, and by his expressed wish he was laid to rest in Charleston, W. Va., where sleep his ancestors.

      Born seventy-one years ago on the banks of the beautiful Kanawha River, Noyes Rand responded to the first call to arms, and in his first baptism of fire displayed great gallantry. he soon won his promotion to the adjutantcy of the 22d Virginia Infantry, and later became adjutant general of the brigade. he was almost recklessly brave when there was an emergency. he was twice wounded and once made prisoner. he had the painful experience of being marched right in front of his home on the way to Camp Chase.

      After the close of the war he became prominent in Charleston's business circles; but about thirty years ago he went to El Paso, where up to his death he filled honorable and important rank as a business man. "Plus" Rand, as he was intimately known, was not only a dashing, knightly officer, but a beloved, genial gentleman. He leaves a widow, two sons, and two daughters.
