     Headquarters Trans-Mississippi department, General order, No. 65. The lieutenant general commanding the Trans-Mississippi department of United Confederate veterans announces with great sorrow, the death of Dr. Samuel H. Stout, who died in Clarendon, Tex., yesterday in his eighty-first year, surrounded by his family and friends.
     Dr. Stout, during the war between the states, was chief surgeon and medical director of the hospital of the Confederate states in the army of Tennessee. He was a man of great learning, and during his life, he was professor of a number of medical colleges in the south. He was an ardent Confederate, a member o Camp Sterling Price and surgeon general on the staff of Lieutenant General W. L. Cabell. He loved the south, was proud of the Confederate army, and whenever he heard of the illness of an old Confederate soldier, he would visit him at once and give him proper medical attention, free of charge. No Confederate knew him but to honor and admire him. When the roll of fame for the south is completed, this grand old Confederate, this noble son of the south, will be found high in the roll of fame. I, therefore, respectfully request every division and brigade commander throughout the Trans-Mississippi department to have this order read to the camps and to take such action as they may deem proper.
     "By order of
     W. I. CABELL,
     "MILTON PARK, Adjutant General, Lieutenant General of U. C. Veterans,
     Trans-Mississippi Department."
     A special meeting of Camp Sterling Price was called yesterday to take appropriate action in regard to the death of Dr. Stout. Commander T. J. Pulliam presided and Adjutant O. Steele kept the minutes.
     On motion of Milton Park, the honorary pall bearers, mentioned above, were appointed.
     Gen. W. L. Cabell moved that a guard of honor, consisting of four veterans, be appointed to guard the remains. The guard of honor follows: Capt. S. H. McElreath, captain of the guard; J. G. Browning, W. J. Betterton and Joseph Ingram. Capt. McElreath was instructed to appoint as many others as he thought necessary.
     The following memorial committee was named: Gen. W. L. Cabell, chairman; J. B. Simpson, J. R. Cole, Milton Park, S. D. Thruston, Dr. H. A. Moseley and W. J. Betterton.
     Dr. Lowrance was selected to deliver an address at the church. All members of the camp were instructed to be at the headquarters with their badges at 2 o'clock this afternoon and to march from there to the church.
     The family of the late Dr. Stout are stopping with Mrs. W. H. Cave, of 181 Thomas avenue. Rev. E. L. Story of Clarendon, is also here.

     The following resolution were drawn up in honor of the late Dr. Stout by a committee appointed by the Dallas Medical society for that purpose:
     "Whereas, Death, that mysterious something whose phantom forever shuttles through the loom of thought, has entered unbidden the ranks of the medical profession, has, folded the tired hands, curtained the eyes and stilled the generous, kindly heart of Dr. S. H. Stout, the most cultivated scholar that has ornamented medical teachings or medical practice in the South during the last fifty years.
     "Philosophy, however brave, is routed from the presence of cold, senseless clay for death 'on the wept of knowledge leaves no figure woven,' the first death and the last death alike, but marks an end. He was, and is now,
Therefore, be it
     "Resolved, that in the departure of Dr. Stout, the profession of Texas has sustained a great loss. His death marks the severing of another thread that binds the unhappy commercial spirit of present medical practice to the ethical, cultivated, studious and dignified profession of forty years ago, as we can enjoy his delightful presence no more on earth. We rejoice that he has rejoined those choice spirits, Chilton, Carter, Wilson, Thomson, Hadra, Letcher, Elliott and a host of others where, undisturbed, he will rest till the labors and troubles of earth shall become a dim memory.
                               V. P. ARMSTRONG,
                              W. M. YOUNG,
                              W. J. LANE,
                                           Committee.

     The following resolution were adopted by the Dallas Medical and Surgical society yesterday:
     "Whereas, it has pleased Almighty God to remove from our midst, our esteemed associate and co-worker, Dr. S. H. Stout, who was a brave and efficient surgeon in the medical department of the Confederacy, an eminent scholar, medical writer and teacher;
     "And, whereas, he has long been an active member of our profession and a zealous supporter of its honor and integrity; be it
     "Resolved, that it is the sense of the Dallas Medical and Surgical Association that in the death of Dr. Stout, we have lost a good friend, a dear brother and an able physician. Be it further
     "Resolved that we extend to the bereaved family our heartfelt sympathy in the loss of a kind father and a loving husband. And, be it further
     "Resolved, that these resolution be spread upon the minutes of the association and a copy be sent to the family of the deceased.
