Csptain William McCann was born in
Millcreek lownsbip, Clarion county, Pa.,
June 5, 1830, being a son of Martin and
Susan (Kelly) McCann. In youug man
hood he set out to do for himself, and his

this section until a few years ago, follow
ing lumbering, oil operating aud fanning
for tbe most part, finally retiring from
active business pursuits and spending
tbe winter months lo Florida. Oue
brother, John MoCann, also survives him.
Csptain McCann was one of our most
highly respected citizens, with whom It
was a pleasure to meet and converse. In
bis husinens affairs he was the soul ol
bouor, by nature kind, oousldnrate and
generous almost to a fault. But it was In
bis military record that be shone most
brightly, and It wns one to be proud of.
At Warren, on the first day of May, 1861,
be enlisted as a private in Co. II., 10th
Pa. Reserves, Gen. Harrison Allen's
company, in response lo President Lin
coln's first call for 75,000 volunteers to
put down the rebellion. Little did tbe
boys tben realize or think that it meant
four years of bloody carnage. At the
organization of the company Mr. Mo
Cann was elected second sergeant, from
which position be was successively pro
moted to first sergeant, first lieutenant
and tbe captaincy, December, 1863. After
Ihe first battle ol Bull Run Capt. McCann
participated In every battle of the Army
of the Potomac, with tbe single exception
of Cbsncellorsvllle, until June 11, 1864,
when be was honorably discharged at
Pittsburgh, He was wounded In the right
band at ibe battle of Antietam by a frag
ment of shell. He was also brevetted
major by President Johnson for gallant
conduct on the battlefield of Antietam.
As a soldier, oitizen and true christian
gentleman Captain McCann was beld in
highest esteem by all wbo knew bim, and
bis passing away has saddened the hearts
of a very large circle of friends.
