Thomas Bernard Castle, six-year old son of Capt. and Mrs. Bosier Castle, at one time a resident of Manassas, died last week in Texas, where his father is stationed with the army.

The deceased's body was brought to Manassas for burial, and was laid to rest Wednesday in the Manassas cemetery, funeral services being conducted by Rev. T. D. D. Clark from the Manassas Baptist Church.  Capt. Castle attended his little son's funeral, but, on account of illnss, Mrs. Castle could not attend.
