Capt. John K. Pollock Is Dead.
The many Antioch friends of Captain John K. Pollock, of Waukegan, will be sorry to learn of his death which occurred in that city Tuesday evening about four O'clock. Capt. Pollock had been ill but a short time and many of his friends will learn of his illness only with the news of his death. The funeral is being held today at the Congregational church in Waukegan, and the remains will be laid to rest in the cemetery at Hickory. Capt. Pollock was one of the early settlers of this township; a man of sterling worth who commanded the respect and admiration of all who knew him. He was a veteran of the civil war and held the position of captain of his company. In the death of Captain Pollock THE NEWS feels it as a personal loss of one of our old-time, tried and true friends, and from out the cloud of sorrow that hovers over our own home, we extend to those who weep the sympathy we feel and which words of ours fail to express.

From a loose obituary, source unknown 25 June 1901
John K. Pollock.
It seems altogether fitting and proper that something should be said of the lesson taught by the life of John K. Pollock. When his old Commander, General Smith stood up by the alter today and spoke with such feeling of the undying loyalty, Christianity, purity and grandeur of the man, one could see the feeling and the conviction of forty years intimate acquaintance stand out on the face of this old warrior. Those of us who had not known the captain for so long a period but who nevertheless had found him a true man, a devoted friend and a delightful companion will bear testimony, although in a lesser degree to the high praise of his former commander.
Capt. Pollock was one of those few old men who delighted as much in the present and in the future as he did in the past; who took as much interest in the work of his lodge, for instance today, as he did twenty-five years ago; who took as much pleasure in his acquaintances made during the last ten years as he did in those of a longer period; who never bored you by telling you that a certain event happened before you were born, or that times were not today what they used to be then, or that the man who offered his life for his country was a greater man and of a set apart and above that of his fellowmen. Mr. Pollock always avoided all references to his magnificent career in the army, to his unswerving devotion to the flag, until by repeated efforts his companion would draw out of him some reminiscense, entertaining and instructive. And he would always tell it with that delightful innocence of spirit and true modesty which completely surrounded the man and made him beloved by every one with whom he came in contact.
It seems to us that we may say he was a young old man and that he was always in perfect sympathy with his fellow man, believing in the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man as devotedly and sincerely as any man with whom it was our pleasure to have so cordial a friendship at any time.
John K. Pollock as General Smith said, has crossed the great river and has been gathered to his comrades of the 96th Illinois, some of whom died of wounds, others of whom have suffered untold agony, resulting from their service to their country, but many of whom still live to be among us to teach us and our children what true devotion to the flag and to ones fellow men can do for the happiness of man.
Captain Pollock was a happy man, happy in his friends, happy in his life. Lake County has many such men, but there is no one more truly a man in every sense of the word than was John K. Pollock.

IN DEATH
Capt. Pollock, one of County Best Known Men Dies
PASSED AWAY TUESDAY
Prominent Figure in Masonic Circles
and Man Generally Highly Esteemed.
Captain John K. Pollock, one of the best known men in Lake county died at his home at 129 Park avenue, this city, Tuesday afternoon at 4:15 o'clock.
His death was the consummation of but a week's illness during which time he had been very low. During all that time his friends had fears for his recovery, therefore his demise was not a surprise but the shock to the public is great. A man with an apparent vigorous constitution and well preserved in years, though he had passed the seventy mark, he appeared to have long period before him.
HIS LIFE
Captain Pollock was born in Canton, New Hamshire, May 2, 1829 and came to Illinois with his parents when ten years of age.
He came to Lake county and located near Millburn at which place he resided nearly all his life until 1896 when he moved to Waukegan.
In the early sixties, before the war, he was married to Christiana Adams who died in 1867.
In 1868 Captain Pollock married Helen Ustoon and to them were born two children both of whom with their mother survive. They are John Elmer of Millburn, who conducts the old Pollock farm and Inez who resides in Chicago.
Mr. Pollock enlisted in Co. C. 96th Infantry as captain of the company. He served gallantly through the war and after it was over returned to Millburn residing there a number of years and then later moving to Antioch where he lived a short time. In 1896 he retired and moved to Waukegan.
Captain Pollock was a member of the Waukegan Knight Templars and had been very prominent in Masonic circles for years.
He was a man highly esteemed by all who knew him and his death will be received with general sorrow.
Funeral from the Presbyterian church Thursday morning at 10:30 o'clock under the auspices of the________.
In the retreat from Nashville when Maj. Hicks was absent Capt. Pollock was again put in command of the regiment.
When Co. C. was filled up in Waukegan in September 1862, a big demonstration was held at which, with Lieut. Partridge, Capt. Pollock was presented with a sword.
Capt. Pollock served throughout the war without change of rank and for 21 months was the Senior Captain of the regiment. At the close of the war he was brevetted major. As senior captain, the command of the regiment should have been given to him upon the retirement of Major Hicks but so unassuming was he that when a younger captain was given it, Capt. Pollock did not raise any question. Had he insisted on the promotion he would have received it without trouble.
CAPTAIN'S MILITARY CAREER
Was a Modest yet Gallant Soldier and Leader.
Captain Pollock enlisted in Co., C. at Antioch this county. He was elected captain of the company at its organization and was ranking captain in the regiment for 21 months prior to his muster out.
Of him as an officer, the history of the 96th Illinois, edited by Chas. R. Partridge, says: "He was a cool, brave officer, and was especially commended for meritorious conduct in the report of his commanding officer of the part taken by the regiment in the Atlantic Campaign."
He participated in all engagements following Look Out Mountain was brevetted major: M. O., with regiment.
In Charge At Kenesaw Mountain
At the battle of Kenesaw mountain, in the absence of Major Hicks, Captain Pollock was put in command of the 96th and in the gallant charge of this task, he gained fame.

AT REST
Remains of Capt. J. K. Pollock are Laid Away.
IMPRESSIVE SERVICE
Old Veterans Hear a Stirring Address
by the Captain's Old Commander, General Smith.
Hundreds of friends including Masonic brethren and old comrades of the Civil war paid their last respects to the late Captain John K. Pollock this morning.
The funeral services over the old veteran's remains were held at 10:30 o'clock in the Presbyterian church and the large edifice was packed.
The service was directly under the auspices of the Masons but the G. A. R. though not present as a body was well represented.
The floral tributes from societies, friends and relatives were beautiful.
The active pall bearers were as follows:
Joe Palmer, G. R. Lyon, C. E. Partridge, R. Alden, B. A. Dunn, Jas. Murrie.
Following the service the funeral cortege started for Hickory where the remains will be interred besides those of his family gone before.
The funeral was directed under the auspices of the Blue lodge, assisted by the Knight Templars.
Rev. S. W. Chidester gave an interesting talk on the christian virtues of Captain Pollock and then asked General Smith of Chicago, Captain Pollock's old commander, to say a few words. General Smith called attention to the fact that thirty-seven years ago today was fought the famous battle of Kenesaw mountain in which the 96th Illinois lost a larger per cent of men killed and wounded than at any other time of the war.
When General Smith was shot in this battle as were two other major officers, the command of the regiment fell to Captain Pollock. He carried on the work in this engagement with bravery and his usual modesty.
He spoke feelingly of his relationship with Mr. Pollock from first enlisting to last Sunday when he through the kindness of Mr. Brewster, he came up to talk with the sick veteran. The general related how when he was traveling in the east and embarking in Palestine, some Syrians came out with him and sang, "God Be With You Till We Meet Again." He told how he had told this little anecdote just as he was about to leave and how the captain with that smile which was always apparent, repeated the words with much feeling, saying to his old comrade, "God Be With You Till We Meet Again."
The general addressed his old comrades with these words: "The pontoons are down, comrades and the years are drawing to a close when you and I will be gathered with Captain Pollock on the other shore of the river. He has gone before but his memory will remain with us, an everlasting and eternal green spot on the pages of our life."
There was a great deal of feeling, not alone on the part of the captain's old comrades who had known him for forty years, but also on the part of the younger men who are now taking the place which he has left vacant.

from the Waukegan Daily Gazette 28 June 1901

1901/6/28 Mr. and Mrs. Robert Strang, Sr., returned from the city Saturday.

Mrs. George Smith of Evanston visited at Mrs. Smith's with Miss Kittie and Mrs. Cummings and called on many of her former neighbors and old friends. Mrs. Smith is mother of James Henry "the silent man of Wall street."

Arthur Spafford was at Dwight, Ill., last week and called on Mr. Harris. He is building an addition to his house. They have a new piano and seem to be florusihing.

We were exceedingly sorry to see in Wednesday's Gazette the death of J. Y. Cory. His life was largely associated with the interests of Lake county for many years, being editor of the best Lake Co. paper which had a wide circulation and a powerful influence on the side of right. The noble men on the field or farm, or in the editor's chair, who did all they could to sustain this government are regarded with a warm feeling by their old associates and friends, so many in Lake County will be sad to hear of James Y. Cory's death. His father, Dr. Benjamin Cory was one of the best doctors Lake county ever had.

Mr. and Mrs. Knott from Iowa called to make a short visit with the Chope families on their way east. Mrs. Knott was the widow of Wm. Chope Jr., who perished in a storm many years ago.

There was a very large attendance at Mr. Bater's Thursday, the Ladies Aid Society. Mrs. Alfred Bain and Mrs. Smith Bain and Mrs. James Kerr of Lake Villa were over also Mrs. F. Clark and her daughter Martha.

A lot of enterprising people gathered Tuesday and cleaned the church up nicely.

All sincerely mourn the death of our old friend and neighbor Capt. John K. Pollock. Kindness and gentleness were marked traits of his character. A noble soldier, a consistent christian, a kind and obliging neighbor, he will be sadly missed by his family and friends.
