I\L\JOR HENRY GILMOR, Major Gilnior was born in Baltimore County,^Lu•yland, in 1838. He entered the Confed-erate army at the outbreak of the Civil was commissioned captain in 1862. InISG-Z-SS lie was imprisoned for five monthsin Fort McHenry, at Baltimore, and in thelatter year he raised a cavalry battalion, ofwhich he was made major. Subsequently hecommanded the First Confederate Regimentof Maryland, and in 1864 headed the advanceof the forces of General Jubal A. Early intothat State, and, being familiar with thecountry, made a successful raid north ofBaltimore. He captured Frederick, Md., andcreated great alarm by his daring ex])loit sofar north of the customary battlefields. In1874 he became police commissioner of hisnative city. He died in that he was giciiig orders, not transmitting them, and tliat hewas in command of the line.

The widecollar of a navy-blue shirt was turned down over the collar ofhis velvet jacket, and a necktie of brilliant crimson was tied ina graceful knot at the throat, the long ends falling carelessly infront. The double rows of buttons on his breast were arrangedin groups of twos, indicating the rank of soft black hat with wide brim adorn
