CREASEY Captain 35TH Regiment Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry 1903 GRIFFITH-STILLINGS PRESS BOSTON 'f A Wxk i> ^ > cTl ^- TO THE SOLDIERS AND SAILORS OF NEWBURYPORT WHO DID FAITHFUL AND HONORABLE SERVICE DURING THE WAR OF THE REBELLION THIS VOLUME IS RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED BY THE AUTHOR PREFACE. The writer presents this volume to the citizens of his native city as purely a work of love. At the close of the Civil War we found, that notwithstanding the loyalty and patriotism of our city during that eventful period, and its earnest and hearty support of the National Government, that it had not only promptly furnished all the men it was called upon by the State to provide, but had actually ex- ceeded by more than one hundred and fifty men (including those in the 40th New York Infantry) all demands made upon it, yet it had absolutely given no thought to, or made the slightest provision for, the preservation of the names or the collating of the records of those who had given of their time, their health, and their lives for the preservation of the Union and the honor and good name of the city. Feeling assured that but a short time would elapse before many of the names as well as the honorable records of the veterans would be lost if some effort were not made to pre- serve them, I began in 1869 the task of collecting the individ- ual records of all who went from Newburyport or served to its credit during the war. The work has been a long and continuous one, demanding more of my time and energy than I ever dreamed of devoting to it; and yet now that it has been completed, and the records placed in such permanent form as to insure their identity, as well as their permanency for the future, I am amply repaid. In a work involving so many details, it would be singular indeed if errors have not occurred, but I feel assured that none will be found of so serious a character that in the future 6 b PREFACE. the identity of the veteran will not be clearly established. The record of the individual veteran herein presented has been verified by the army or navy discharge papers, or the records of the department. In many instances the personal history of the soldier has been copied from the company or regimental descriptive book, while the list of engagements accredited have either been taken from the soldier's discharge paper or confirmed by officers of the company to which he belonged. In the records of some I have been confronted with the official report of "deserted;" and wliile it is exceedingly un- pleasant to record the fact, believing that in some instances it may have been an error, yet I can pursue no other course than to follow the records of the War Department, presuming that ere this the veteran would have succeeded in amending such a record if satisfactory evidence had been presented to the department that it was either unjust or incorrect. It will be found that in some cases our records differ from the "Record of the Massachusetts Volunteers," as well as from some of the muster-rolls on file at the adjutant-general's office at the State House, in the spelhng of names. In all such instances, the corrections made have been verified either by the signature of the person on the enlistment or muster-in rolls, or the city or family records. Where veterans re-enlisted under an assumed name, or in anywise changed their correct name, both their army and correct names are given. I gratefully acknowledge my indebtedness to all who have so kindly assisted in preparing this work. To the late Hon. William H. Iluse of the Newburyport Herald and a member of the city government during most of the war period, I feel particularly indebted for much valuable information and en- couragement, and for a complete file of the Herald from 18G1 to 1865; to the late Gen. James A. Cunningham, Adjutant- PREFACE. 7 General of the Commonwealth, for unusual privileges among the documents of his department; to Executive Secretary Edward F. Hamlin for free access to the valuable correspond- ence of Governor Andrew during the years of the war; and to the present Adjutant-General of the State, Gen. Samuel Dalton, and those connected with him in his department, for continued favors and kind assistance. To our worthy city clerk, George H, Stevens, who has for so many years be- friended me, I am pleased to acknowledge my obligation and to express my gratitude. G. W. C. Chelsea, Mass. October, 1903.

Clouds and darkness are hovering over this glorious Union of ours, and seem ahiiost ready to burst upon and dissever it. The people have assembled during the past week to supplicate the Almighty to stay the impending danger; and it is well in times like these to invoke the aid of a power mightier than man. It is well to appeal to the Almighty to avert the terrible evil of a dissolution of the Union — this splendid Union which excites the admiration of the world. Shall it be rent asunder? God forbid. Who amongst us would be willing to close their eyes for the last time on earth, with the thought thai, they were to meet their sires and grandsires, and say to them, " We have done all we could to de- stroy the noble work v»'hich you accomplished at so much sacrifice, with so much blood?" My friends, we are bound as a people, to preserve this Union, even at the sacrifice of our best blood. Let us as patriots and Christians make all reasonable appeals and sacrifices to the South for the purpose of perpetuating the union of these States. Let us not submit to the loss of a single star from any want on our part to do justice to the party who claim to be aggrieved. At the same time let us ask ourselves if we are willing to remain quiei and suffer the noble work which our forefathers fought for, and accomplished by so much toil and suffering, to be destroyed. RESOLUTIONS BY THE CITY GOVERNMENT IN RELATION TO THE APPROACHING REBELLION. Governor Andrew, the day after his inauguration as gov- ernor, ordered a salute of one hundred guns to be fired in Boston, and a national salute in fifteen other cities and towns in the Commonwealth, on January 8th, in commemoration of the battle of New Orleans, and in honor of the gallant conduct and wise forethought of Major Anderson in removing his command from Fort Moultrie to Fort Sumter in the harbor of Charleston, S. C. Newburyport was one of the places where a salute was ordered to be fired. Monday evening, January 7th, the following was introduced by Alderman Wm. H. Huse, and unanimously adopted by the city council. The mayor and aldermen having been ordered by His Excellency, Governor Andrew, to give the guns in their care to Capt. Nehemiah Flanders, for the purpose of firing a national salute on the 8th inst.,. in honor of the victory of General Jackson at New Orleans in 1815. and also in honor of the recent conduct of Major Anderson at Charleston, S.C, deem this a proper occasion to express their views: therefore: 12 NEWBUBYPOET IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. Resolved, That while we would consider all the complaints made by the State which has voted secession, and by the other States which con- template secession, and while we would urge upon our senators and representatives in General Court to repeal the Personal Liberty Law, and upon our senators and representatives in Congress to propose or accept such just and proper compromises as shall pacify the country, we adopt the language of General Jackson — "The Union, It Must and Shall Be Preserved!" And as Newburyport in all times past has been loyal to government, and patriotic in the support of law, order, and liberty, so will she again, if the occasion calls for it, pledge fortune, life, and honor in behalf of the Constitution and the Union as our fathers left them. Resolved, That this is not a time for party or faction, and we feel justified in calling upon all our fellow-citizens to forget their past party predilections and merge in one grand Union party, where faction shall be forgotten in country, and self in patriotism; where all shall study those things that make for peace, and where those who would pluck the mote from their brother's eye will not forget the beam in their own eye. Resolved, That in token of our fealty to the LTnion, — our common country, — every part of which. North and South, East and West, is alike dear to us, and alike to be regarded and defended in their interests and rights, we hereby order the city messenger to hoist, upon a flag-staff to be erected on the City Hall, the national flag — with its thirteen stripes and thirty-three stars — upon every fair day until further ordered. General Schouler, in his History oj Massachusetts in the Civil War, says: These resolutions T believe to have been the first adopted by any city or town in the Commonwealth, or in any loyal State, having relation to the approaching rebellion. PREPARATION BY THE STATE MILITIA FOR ACTIVE SERVICE. January IQth. That the State might be prepared to fur- nish her quota upon any requisition made by the President of the United States for the maintenance of law and the suppression of rebellion, the Governor and Commander-in- Chief issued General Order No. 4, requiring the commanding officers of each company of volunteer militia to examine the rolls of his company and cause the name of each member, with his rank and place of residence, to be properly recorded, and a copy of the same to be forwarded to the office of the adjutant-general. Also that they forthwith discharge all men in their commands, who from age, physical defect, business or family causes, might be unable or indisposed to respond at once to the orders of the governor. That if any company had NEWBURYPOET IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. 13 not the number of men allowed by law, the commanding officer should at once cause the vacancies to be filled, and the men properly drilled and uniformed, that they might be ready for any exigency whenever called upon. ACTION BY THE GUSHING GUARDS IN RELATION TO THE ABOVE ORDER. February 2d. Every member of the Gushing Guards was notified to meet at the armory (Saturday evening) "to hear the report of their treasurer, and to take action on General Order No. 4." The meeting was full and enthusiastic, many of the older members of the corps being in attendance. A vote was passed "tendering the services of the company to the Commander- in-Chief of the Massachusetts Volunteer Militia if called upon to do active duty, and authorizing the armory to be opened on every Thursday evening until further notice." PREAMBLE AND RESOLUTIONS INTRODUCED BY LIEUT, GEORGE CREASEY AND ADOPTED BY THE COMPANY. Whereas, Agreeable to General Order No. 4, we have assembled under circumstances of extraordinary peril to our country, not as citizens only, but as citizen soldiers duly enrolled as a part of the active militia force of Massachusetts, subject at all times to the orders of the commander- in-chief under the laws of the State: — we therefore, acknowledging this fact, in presence of the alarming condition of our public affairs, whether having their origin in the real or imaginary wrongs inflicted by one portion of our country upon the rights and institutions of the other, or instituted by the treasonable designs of internal foes, feel it to be a duty we owe to our past history as a corps, to ourselves and kindred, to our city, and above all to our country, to sacrifice all party feeling and prejudice, and with one voice declare to our superior officers that we are ready at any and all times to march in defence of that Union as a nation, that independence as a people, for which the services of those who organ- ized this corps in 1778 was devoted: — therefore Resolved, That the commander of this company forthwith forward to headquarters a list of the duly enrolled members of the corps, pledg- ing to the commander-in-chief that Company A, 8th Regiment, will hold themselves ready to respond to any order coming through the regular channel. Resolved, That the commissioned officers be directed to take such immediate action as shall place the corps in proper condition to meet any emergency that may arise. 14 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. March 2d. Capt. Nehemiah Flanders of the Gushing Guards having resigned his commission as captain, 1st Lieut. Albert W. Bartlett was elected commander. After the election of President Lincoln in November, 1860, it became manifest that the leading men of the South not only seriously contemplated but had fully determined to secede from the national government. The course pursued by their representative politicians confirmed the belief that they were secretly preparing to contend by force of arms for the estab- lishment of a separate government under the protection of which they could extend and enjoy their cherished and be- loved institution, — slavery. Massachusetts, true to the teaching of her sires, true to herself and to the patriotism of her sons, did not hesitate or falter; but few days elapsed after the inauguration of Gov- ernor Andrew before active measures were taken to put the volunteer militia, then numbering 5,593 men, and organized into nine regiments and three battalions of infantry; three battalions and eight unattached companies of riflemen; one battalion and five unattached companies of cavalry, — into active condition and ready for the field. As Massachusetts was foremost in. preparing to support and sustain the Union, so was South Carolina foremost in at- tempts to destroy it. The demand made upon Major Anderson for the surrender of Fort Sumter, April 11th, 1861, by the Confederate Government through General Beauregard, and his noble and patriotic reply, ''It is a demand with which I re- gret that my sense of honor and my obligations to my gov- ernment prevent my compliance ; " the opening fire by all the rebel batteries on the morning of the 12th on the fort ; the spirit and bravery with which the little garrison re- sponded ; the ineffectual attempt of the Star of the West to ren- der assistance ; the renewal of the bombardment on the 13th, the firing of hot shot by the rebels, and the burning of the barracks and magazine of the fort, and finally the evacuation by Major Anderson and his heroic command, on the after- noon of Sunday, April 14th, — created the most intense feeling among the people of the North, and was the tocsin of war. KBWBIJEYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. 15 And as the intelligence was announced by telegraph there arose one common sentiment of indignation against those who had commenced the conflict, and a determination in the hearts of the loyal North to maintain the unity and the authority of the national government. The Daihj Herald of the 15th, in an article on the "im- pending crisis," said: It would have pleased us, if measures had been taken to call a Na- tional Convention fresh from the people to consult and act, for, as yet, the people have not spoken, and the sense of the nation is not known. After all means of peace were exhausted, we should not oppose war; nay, if the unity of the country demanded it, we would hail its red face and thundering voice with gladness. But so it could not be, and they have chosen to fight first. Very well, fight let it be, then, and let the guns of Sumter vmite us all. Lay on! let the cannon roar! let swords and bayonets gleam wherever the sun shall shine, and the strongest party shall win. Our motto is, "Our country, right or wrong," and if it can't be our whole country, then for that section do we go in which we live; and since they determine to show us that there is a government in these States, and the battle must be fought to its bitter end, let it be fought with spirit and determination. When we enter upon a war, honor and humanity demand that we should make it as short as possible. There can be no doubt that the free States, numbering two to one of all the South in population and having abundant wealth and credit, must con- quer; and the more forcibly and the more expeditiously we move, the better. Let Mr. Lincoln call for a hundred thousand men as soon as the railroads can carry them to the nearest point of action, to be followed by another hundred thousand, as soon as they can be mustered; and a third hundred thousand to stand in reserve. If we are to fight to the subjugation of our opponents, they will all be needed, and if we are to negotiate hereafter, it must be done on the drum-head. FIRST CALL FOR TROOPS. On the 15th day of April, 1861, but twenty-four hours after the surrender of Fort Sumter, and the day of the issuing of the proclamation by President Lincoln calling for 75,000 volunteers, the active participation of Newburyport in oppos- ing the rebellion began. On that day the field and staff officers of the various regi- ments of the Massachusetts Volunteer Militia in the vicinity of Boston met in council at the governor's room at the State House. After discussing the condition and efficiency of the miUtia, the movement of troops, etc., the governor proposed 16 NEWBUEYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. to the representative of each regiment this question: "How much time does your regiment require to be ready for active service?" The reply given by General Hinks, who at that time was adjutant of the 8th Regiment and its representative at the council, was, "The 8th Regiment will report in Boston to-morrow morning if ordered." To which the governor replied, "That is what we desire. You can order them to report at Faneuil Hall." GUSHING GUARDS ORDERED OUT. Late in the afternoon of the 15th, Mr. John T. Brown delivered to Captain Bartlett a telegraphic order from regi- mental headquarters, which was as follows: Lynn, April 15th, 1861. Captain Albert W. Bartlett, Commanding Company A. The 8th Regiment is ordered to march to the defence of the capital. Will rendezvous in Faneuil Hall to-morrow. How many men will j'ou muster? (Signed) Edward W. Hinks, Adjutant. This order was duplicated, and intrusted to Mr. Edward S. Toppan, who subsequently delivered it to Captain Bartlett, who notified in person the members of the company and sum- moned them to appear at the armory ready for duty the following morning. The news that the company had been called for by the governor created great excitement in the city. The call was the call of the country, and those who were to respond to it had but little time to arrange business affairs and be ready for the cars at the appointed time. Dur- ing the evening State Street was crowded with people, and at the armory all was life and activity. Most of the members of the Cushing Guards were mechanics — many had families to leave behind dependent upon their labor for support. The call was sudden. The question between duty to their coun- try and duty to their wives and children was presented. With some it was answered promptly, and if others delayed for the moment it was only to be assured that those they left behind should not become paupers upon the city. The city government was in session on that evening. Captain Bart- NEWBURYPORT EST THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. 17 lett with the officers of his company waited upon the mayor, stated the condition under which many of the members were placed, and urged such action as would enable the company to maintain its ancient reputation, and the city to preserve its honor. Most nobly did the city council respond. With but one dissenting vote this order was passed: As many of our citizens have been called into the militarj'- service of the United States, that one thousand dollars be appropriated for such support as their respective families may need during their absence. After the adoption of the order the mayor and aldermen visited the armory, made known the fact, and assured the company that when that was expended more would be appro- priated. DEPARTURE OF THE GUSHING GUARDS. April 16th (Tuesday). It was the purpose of Captain Bartlett to have left on the eight o'clock train, but as many of the men required more time to arrange their business afifairs, twelve o'clock was the time appointed. There would have been no difficulty in filling the company with recruits at any time after the receipt of the order calling them into active service. Many were willing and anxious to go, but Captain Bartlett, considering General Order No. 4, issued January 16th, to apply only to those who had been enrolled and returned as members of the company, telegraphed to the adjutant- general for permission to fill his company with volunteers. The answer came, "Come with what you have." At a few minutes before twelve, in the midst of a cold and cheerless rain storm, the small company of patriots, for such their promptness and determination had proved them to be, left the armory for the depot. The rain and sleet was falling fast, but bravely and firmly they marched to the music of the fife and drum. But few cheers were given, and hardly a word was spoken by the hundreds who had gathered to witness their departure. At twelve o'clock they left for Boston, not knowing or fearing the duties they might be called to perform for the honor and protection of the National Capitol. 18 NEWBUEYPOKT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861.

Other members followed during the day, and joined the company at Faneuil Hall. Wednesday evening, the 17th, Captain Bartlett sent to have twenty additional men enrolled for the company. Immediately the armory was opened, and in less than three hours all the uniforms were filled. INCREASED MILITARY ENTHUSIASM. DEPARTURE OF ADDITIONAL VOLUNTEERS FOR THE GUSHING GU.A.RDS. April 18th (Thursday). The Herald says: This was the greatest day for military enthusiasm that Newbury- port ever saw. We have no words to convey an impression of the deep feeling that pervaded, and does now pervade, the people of this com- munity. Little business was attended to. Men stopped from tlieir avo- cations and pursuits to think of the state of the country; and the more they thought the more their souls burned for the restoration of peace, harmony, and imion; and the more they determined that the govern- ment should be maintained in its integrity and full powers in every State over which the Stars and Stripes have ever waved. • In a lecture delivered by Chaplain Samuel J. Si)aldiiig, at City Hall, May 29th, 1869, at the request of A. W. Bartlett, Post 49 G.A.R. of this city, entitled, " Newbury- port in the Rebellion," much of the material, including the names of those who were the flrst to leave the city on the morning of April 16th, 1861, was furnished by tli« writer. The list was subsequently found to be inaccurate. The names given above aro correct. NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. 19 At eight o'clock twenty-one (21) men in charge of Capt. Nehemiah Flanders, and escorted by the Newburyport Brass Band, left for Boston to join the Gushing Guards. At ten o'clock others left, and at twelve between thirty and forty more, so that nearly seventy men must have left the city during the day to join the 8th Regiment. The Gushing Guards, as a part of the 8th Regiment, M. V. M., left Boston April 18th for Washington, where, after hberating the frigate Constitution at Annapolis, and repairing the road- bed and engines of the Annapolis & Elkridge R.R., they arrived April 26th, having opened communications between Washington and the North.

Coffin com- menced the circulation of a paper for subscriptions to form a new military company and aid their families while in the service. So ready and willing were the citizens to subscribe, that in a few hours forty-two hundred dollars were raised, and the names of nearly fifty volunteers for the new company obtained. ORGANIZATION OF THE NATIONAL GUAEDS, SUBSEQUENTLY COMPANY B, 40th new YORK INFANTRY (mozart) regiment. The second day after the departure of the Cushing Guards, the formation of a new company was commenced by Mr. Charles H. Coffin, a merchant of our city, and the then city marshal, James P. L. Westcott. The company was organized as a part of the militia of the State to be ready for active duty within thirty days if called for by the governor. The first enlistments for this company were at the armory of the Cushing Guards on State Street, and so desirous were the young men of our city to prove their patriotism and valor that within forty-eight hours from the first enrollment the company was full. The city government, and very many of our leading citi- zens, were particularly interested in its organization. Money was liberally subscribed, and neither time nor expense was spared to make it one of the best companies in the State. NEWBUflYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. 21 Clothing for uniforms was contributed by Boston men, former residents of the city, and in the Herald of April 22d was published the following call: The ladies are asking, as in the days of the Revolution, " What can we do for our country, for libert}', for those who are to risk their lives in defence of all that is dear to us? " I will tell j'ou. We want made this week, sixty-eight military coats and sixty-eight pairs of pants. Those having sewing-machines suited to heavy work, those who will contribute money to pay for tailoresses to oversee the work, and those who are willing to work under the direction of these persons, will please leave their names at my hou.'se, 128 High Street, or office corner of Water Street and Cushing's Wharf. (Signed) Charles H. Coffin. This call was promptly responded to by a large number of ladies, who met at the vestry of the Whitefield Church on State Street, where the making of uniforms and other clothing for the company was carried on. ELECTION OF OFFICERS BY THE COMPANY. April 25th. At a meeting of the company for the election of officers, and by direction of the Governor, presided over by Mayor George W. Jackman, Jr., James P. L. Westcott was elected Captain; Wilham D. Foster, 1st Lieutenant; Benjamin R. Knapp, 2d Lieutenant; William J. Creasey, 3d Lieutenant; and Robinson N. Shuff, 4th Lieutenant. CONTRIBUTION OF MONEY BY THE PUPILS OF THE PUTNAM FREE SCHOOL. April 27th. The pupils of the Putnam Free School hav- ing contributed to the company a sum of money, Captain Westcott addressed them the following letter: Armory of the Cushing Guards, Saturday Evening, April 27th, 1861. To THE Young Ladies of the Putnam Free School: We cheerfully and kindly acknowledge the receipt of twenty dollars, a donation from them to be expended for the benefit of the soldiers under 22 NEWBTJRYPOET IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. m}' command in such a manner as may be deemed best. This donation is more cheerfully received, it being a part of the money raised for the purchase of the beautiful flag, which was the first one thrown to the breeze from the school-buildings in this city. That flag we have sworn to protect, and God helping us we will, so long as life shall last. In behalf of the Volunteers, James P. L. Westcott, Commander. ARMING OF THE COMPANY WITH COLT S REVOLVING RIFLES BY THE CITY. May 2d. The city council held a special meeting to take measures for arming the National Guards. An order intro- duced by Alderman Isaac Hale, Jr., was unanimously adopted by both branches of the city government: That the mayor be a committee to provide for and on account of the city one of Colt's revolving rifles, with sabre bayonet, for the use of each member of the volunteer company in this city now under the com- mand of Capt. James P. L. Westcott. May 20th. The mayor, to whom was referred the purchas- ing of the rifles, reported to the city council that: On the third day of the present month your committee went to Boston for the purpose of purchasing the rifles, agreeably to the order, first calling upon the adjutant-general of the Commonwealth, and making such inquiries of him relative to the use of said arms by an infantry company, and further, whether it would prevent said corps from being joined to the 8th Regiment of this State, or whether by the purchase of the same (one of the rifles being present and fully .examined b}'^ himself and many other military gentlemen) it would in any way prevent the company being called upon to do duty in defence of the United States Government. The answer of the adjutant-general was, that there was nothing in the purchasing of the rifles that would prevent their using them, or being joined to the 8th Regiment, except that the 8th Regiment was full, and he advised me by all means not to return to Newburyport without pur- chasmg them if I had authority so to do. (Since that time I understand that the company has been attached to the 8th Regiment, but will not be sent forward until that regiment has taken the oath to serve for the term of three years, which they have Qot yet done.) NEWBTJRYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. 23 THE COMPANY PRESENTED WITH BIBLES AT THE HARRIS STREET CHURCH. May 5th (Sunday). At many of the churches this after- noon the pastors preached eloquent and patriotic sermons. At the Harris Street Church, Rev. James Cruickshanks preached from the text "Render unto Caesar," after which he pre- sented each member of the National Guards with a small pocket Bible to be carried with them in the service. The church was appropriately decorated with American flags, and the choir sang the "Star-Spangled Banner," closing the ser- vices with "America." CAPTAIN WESTCOTT NOTIFIES THE GOVERNOR THAT THE COMPANY IS READY FOR DUTY. May 6th. The organization of the company being com- plete, and the rifles furnished by the city received, Captain Westcott addressed the governor: Newhuryport, May 6th, 1861. To His Excellency, John A. Andrew, Governor and Commander-in-Chief of Commonxoenlth of Massachusetts: Dear Sir, — The newly organized company of volunteers known as the Newburyport National Guards are a picked body of men selected from three hundred and thirty applicants. They have met every day and evening for drill for the last three weeks, having no encouragement other than the hope that they are to be ordered for duty within a few days. The company will have uniforms complete on Thursday the 9th inst. They are armed with Colt's revolving rifles, army size. The cir- cumstances of the men will not permit them much longer to remain without emplo3^ment. What encouragement can you give me that we shall be ordered soon? It was hoped that we should be attached to the 8th Regiment now in Washington, that being, as I am informed, the expressed wish and desire of that regiment. Please confer with the adjutant-general and forward as early an answer as convenient, and oblige, Yours, etc., James P. L. Westcott, Captain Newburyport National Guards. 24 NEWBURYPOET IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. REPLY OF THE GOVERNOR. Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Executive Department, Boston, May 7th, 1861. Capt. James P. L. Westcott, Newburyport National Guards : Sir, — Your favor of Maj' 6th is received. Are you disposed to enlist for three years or for the war? How soon can you go? An early an- swer is desired for my advice. Yours faithfully, John A. Andrew, Governor. CAPTAIN WESTCOTT TO GOVERNOR ANDREW. Newburyport, May 10th, 1861. To His Excellency, John A. Andrew, Governor of the Commonwenlth of Massachusetts: Dear Sir, — Yours under date of May 7th is just re ceived. In reply I have to say that when my company enlisted they were to be in service for one year. I understand from Mr. Stone and Colonel Coffin that they had an interview with you on the 8th, at which time you determined to attach us to the 8th Regiment now in Washington. Cannot we, being a part of that regiment, be ordered under the first call? I have no doubt that after the company arrives at Washington they will every man of them be willing to enlist for three years or for the war, as that ynW be my wish. But as they have enlisted under the first call, I should not desire to put the question to them at present, but am satisfied they will act with the Eighth, and have no doubt that should part of that regiment desire to return, my company would attach themselves to some other for the war. Mr. Stone will see you to-morrow and communicate with you more fully. We can be ready and report at Boston on Thursday morning. Yours truly, James P. L. Westcott, Commanding Company National Guards. There seems to have been a desire to attach the company to the 8th Regiment, and at an interview between the gov- ernor, Hon. Eben F. Stone, and Col. F. J. Coffin, it was deter- mined upon. From communications received from officers in the regiment it appears that the impression with them was that the company was to be forwarded to that command. May 11th, Mayor Jackman received this telegram: NEWBURYPOET IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. 25 Washington, D.C. Captain Bartlett has written to you to-day. He is supplied with everything wanted, in lieu of his company. Equip Captain Westcott's company and send them forward to join the 8th Regiment immediately. {Signed) Geo. Creasey, Adjutant. Captain Bartlett, in a letter to the mayor dated May 11th, says: By a letter received to-day from an officer of the new company, I am informed that the State cannot at present furnish equipments for their company, and as they are attached to the 8th Regiment I would recommend that, as my command will not be of any expense to the city, that the city council furnish Captain Westcott's company with equip- ments that they may join their regiment. TELEGRAM FROM THE GOVERNOR, COMPANY NOT WANTED. commont\'ealth of massachusetts, Executive Department, (No Date.) Capt. James P. L. Westcott, Newburyport. Not wanted at present.

THE COMPANY UNANIMOUSLY VOTES TO ENLIST FOR THREE YEARS, OR DURING THE WAR. (Telegram.) Newburyport, May 13th, 1861 To His Excellency, John A. Andrew: Sir, — The National Guards of this city have voted to a man to serve three years. Ready to-morrow. Have we been attached to the 8th Regiment? When can we go? Answer by telegraph. James P. L. Westcott, Captain National Guards. The Governor not replying to the above. Captain Westcott again telegraphed: 26 NEWBTJRYPOKT IN THE CIVTI. WAR, 1861. Newburyport, May 13th, 1861. To His Excellency, John A. Andrew: Sir, — I telegraphed you this morning that my company had voted to serve three years. Ready to march to-morrow morning. We have been informed that you attach us to the 8th Regiment. The men are crazy to go. Don't refuse their request. James P. L. Westcott, Captain. To this dispatch no reply was made. OFFICIAL COMMUNICATION FROM MAYOR JACKMAN, RECOMMEND- ING AID TO THE VOLUNTEERS. To THE City Council of the City of Newburyport: Gentlemen, — I have been repeatedly called upon for aid within the past two weeks by members of the two volunteer companies now in this city. My answer thus far has been, that I could do nothing for them, there being no money appropriated for that purpose, and I having no authority to take money from the City Treasury for any such object. Many of them say that it is impossible for them to subsist and at- tend to their drill duties without aid in some way. It is apparent to me that something should be done at once to relieve their immediate wants, at anj'^ rate until such time as thej^ shall be mustered into the service of the governinent, either State or National. I am aware that there has been a large sum of money subscribed by the citizens, for the equipment and support of these men and their families; but when and how that money is to be distributed or used, I do not know. I cannot, however, see the difference in supporting these men and their families now from that fund, or supporting their families after the men have gone. It is necessary in either case that they should have something to eat, to be paid for out of that subscription, or from some other source. I believe it to be merely a matter of time as to the use of that fund, for I am fully impressed that it will take much more than that sum to relieve the wants of our soldiers before this great na- tional question is settled. If that should be used now, the city will im- doubtedly have to assist them hereafter; and if the city should now render assistance to these families, then that fund will come in course and do good service. 1 would, therefore, recommend that the city council make an appro- priation sufficient to allow these men, who are now enlisted in Captain Westcott's company, and the one which has been raised by Captain Remick, who are in need of the same, an allowance of three dollars per week in groceries, where they have a family, and to pay the board of those men who have no family. In both cases to continue for the space of thirty days from the date hereof, unless the companies should be called awav before that time. r, .r n . •. . i Respectfully submitted, Newburyport, Geo. W. Jackman, Jr., Mayor. May 2()th, 1861 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. 27 THE CITY GOVERNMENT VOTES TO ASSIST THE VOLUNTEERS. May 20th. An order introduced by Alderman George J. George, recommending assistance to the volunteer companies of Captains Westcott and Remick of three dollars per week to those who had families, and board for those who had not, who were in need of such assistance, for thirty days unless sooner called into service, was unanimously adopted by the city council. THE NATIONAL GUARDS VISIT BOSTON. Newburyport, May 22d, 1861. To His Excellency, Governor Andrew, Commanckr-in-Ch ief: Sir, — The National Guards of this city will make a flying visit to l^oston to-morrow, Thursday. Will be in front of the State House at 10.30 A.M. Would be pleased to have your Excellency review the same. Respectfully your obedient servant, James P. L. Westcott, Commander. The company was received by the governor and other military men at the appointed time. The Boston Journal, speaking of their visit, said: The National Guards of Newburyport, Capt. James P. L. Westcott, arrived in this city this forenoon, accompanied by the Newburyport Band, and numbered about seventy muskets. They made a fine appear- ance, and on marching up State Street they went through the movements of forming a hollow square and repelling cavalry in a highly creditable manner. CALL FOR THREE YEARS' TROOPS. Permission having been granted the State to raise six regiments of infantry for three years' service, the governor, on the 22d of May, issued General Order No. 12. This order stated that "all companies of the Massachusetts Vol- unteer Militia which may desire to volunteer to serve as part of the above force will make immediate application in writing to the commander-in-chief through the adjutant-general. From the companies thus applying, a sufficient number will be selected to form the six regiments assigned to this State." 28 KEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVTL WAR, 1861. VISIT OF HON. EBEN F. STONE AND CAPTAIN WESTCOTT TO THE GOVERNOR. THE NATIONAL GUARDS SENT TO NEW YORK FOR SERVICE IN THE BROOKLYN PHALANX. No reply having been received to the dispatch of Captain Westcott to the governor dated the 13th after the promulga- tion of General Order No. 12, he, in company with Hon. Eben F. Stone, visited the governor to see if the company could not be received under that order. To them assurances were given that the company should be attached to one of the regiments then forming, or be sent to camp of instruction, within three days. Before the expiration of the time specified, the governor telegraphed to Captain Westcott: Commonwealth op Massachusetts, Executive Department, Boston, May 29th, 1861. Capt. J. P. L. Westcott of National Guards : If you can be at Brooklyn, N.Y., Saturday morning, you can be re- ceived into the Brooklyn Phalanx and go into active service immediately. Reply at once whether ready. John A. Andrew, Governor. To this Captain Westcott immediately replied, "Ready." THE GOVERNOR GRANTS PERMISSION FOR THE COMPANY TO LEAVE THE STATE. Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Executive Department, Boston, May 31st, 18G1. Capt. James P. L. Westcott, Commanding Company of Inft. at Newburyport in 2d Division M. V. M. : Sir, — The commander-in-chief hereby grants to you and your com- mand permission to report for active service to the commander of the Brooklyn Phalanx, Brooklyn, N. Y. A. G. Brown, Jr., Captain and Military Secretary to the Commander-in-Chief. DEPARTURE OF THE NATIONAL GUARDS FOR BROOKLYN, N.Y. The company was anxious for active duty. They had been organized nearly six weeks, and had devoted the entire time to drill and preparation under the direction of Capt. NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1801. 29 Nehemiah Flanders. They were armed with what was sup- posed to have been the most serviceable rifle at a cost to the city of three thousand six hundred dollars. The officers were presented with arms and equipments, and the men were each provided with two uniforms, one for parade and the other for fatigue duty. Between seven and eight thousand dollars had been expended by the city and the citizens to prepare the company for the field. On Friday morning, May 31st, the city was alive to see them depart. The armory was crowded with friends ; and before leaving. Rev. Randolph Campbell, who was present, earnestly invoked divine blessing upon the men who were to march in defence of the government. Dr. Henry C. Perkins gave them very useful advice on the manner of living and preserving health; and General Gushing, on being called, spoke eloquently in support of the Union and the govern- ment, urging them to stand by each other in defence of the Stars and Stripes, and assuring them that victory and success were certain to follow. Messrs. David Wood and Isaac H. Boardman of the committee of the Volunteer Fund promised the men that their families would be provided for during their absence. They left the city by the Eastern R.R. at 10 A.M., amid the cheers of the thousands who had assembled to bid them God speed. The dispatch from Governor Andrew to Captain Westcott, dated May 29th, was prompted by the following, received by him from a son of Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, who was con- nected with the intended regiment. New Yokk, May 29th, 1861. Governor Andrew: If the Woburn, Milford, and Newbur^qjort Companies are willing, and can be here by Saturday morning, they can be received into the Brooklyn Phalanx, which is received, and will go into active service immediately. (Signed) H. B. Beecher, Brooklyn. The New York Courier and Enquirer of the same date says: The Brooklyn Phalanx will be ready. Inspection has been ordered by the Union Defence Committee on Saturday, when they will present a full complement of men. 30 NEWBUJRYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. The National Guards with the other Massachusetts com- panies on their arrival in New York Saturday morning were received by the officers of the regiment and a committee of citizens, and for a time quartered at the Astor House. An inspection of the regiment had been ordered by the colonel to take place in Brooklyn at four o'clock the same afternoon ; and when the time arrived, the three Massachusetts companies were the only organizations present, excepting two skeleton companies, both numbering less than sixty men. A consulta- tion of the Massachusetts officers was held, and it was decided that in view of the misrepresentations made and the apparent condition of the regiment, the best course for them to pursue was to return home. The colonel, however, prevailed upon them to remain a short time longer, stating that the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher had gone to Washington, and would see that they were at once mustered into service. GOVERNOR ANDREW ORDERS THE COMPANY TO RETURN TO MASSACHUSETTS. June Sd. Governor Andrew telegraphed to Mr. Frank E. Howe, Agent of Massachusetts in New York: Brooklyn must prepare to return our three companies. We have incurred expense, raised hopes, and Brooklyn has cruelly misled, disap- pointed, and mortified us. Mr. Howe replied by letter, saying: I went immediately to Brooklyn. The first person I saw was Cap- tain Westcott of the Newburyport National Guards, who seemed to regret the tenor of the dispatch, although expressed his loyalty in strong terms, and willingness to return with his command at that moment. His only regret seemed to be that the Brooklyn people, officers and all, should be censured when he felt they were doing their best. I talked with the men under his command, all of whom seemed contented. The three companies returned to Boston, arriving on the morning of June 5th, and breakfasted at the American House, after which they were dismissed until twelve o'clock, when they were to assemble to hear the report of the officers, who in the meantime had reported at headquarters, where they had a conference with Adjutant-General Schouler and Quartermas- NEWBUKYPOKT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. 31 ter-General Reed. Captain Westcott stated that having been months in constant drill and discipline at their own expense, his company felt that they ought to be immediately employed. General Reed laid the matter before the governor, and re- ported that the desire of his Excellency was that the compa- nies return to their homes, and disband. To this Captain Westcott rephed that his company had been formed for ser- vice in defence of the government, and they did not propose to disband, but were determined to seek active service. It was finally agreed to furnish quarters and subsistence for the men at Fort Warren, and transportation for the officers back to New York that they might complete arrangements, and attach themselves to the Mozart Regiment then forming. THE NATIONAL GUARDS JOIN THE 40th NEW YORK INFANTRY. Through Captain Westcott, arrangements were perfected by which the three companies, with an additional company from Lawrence, were attached to the 40th New York Infantry (Mozart) Regiment. Of the National Guards the lieutenants and several of the men declined to again seek service out of the State. Their ranks were, however, recruited to the army standard by additions from the Wallace Guards of Amesbury. Before leaving the State, Captain Westcott received from the governor the announcement that in so doing they severed all connection with Massachusetts, and that the Common- wealth would in no wise be responsible for their action or welfare. LETTER OF GOVERNOR ANDREW TO CAPTAIN WESTCOTT. Boston, June 10th, 1861. To Capt. J. P. T,. Westcott, Commanding Co. M. V. M., Newhuryport: Sir, — You have expressed a desire in behalf of yourself and your command, to proceed to New York, and there join what is called the Mozart Regiment. In consideration of the disappointment you have already experienced, this Commonwealth will again transport you to New York at its o^^^^ expense. But in order that there may be no pos- sible misunderstanding, it is deemed advisable to state explicitly in this connection that you and your command are not ordered to duty, but 32 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. are only permitted to do what you desire, on your own risk and respon- sibility as private citizens, and thus from the moment you leave Massa- chusetts, the Commonwealth cannot consider that it holds any further official connection with you by which it shall be bound to any official responsibility whatever for your action or welfare, although in both the people of Massachusetts can never cease, of course, to take a warm interest. With sincere good wishes I am very truly yours, John A. Andrew. Alderman Isaac Hale, Jr., who accompanied the Guards to New York, under date of June 13th telegraphed to the New- buryport Herald: Arrived at Yonlcers yesterday. The condition of the regiment ex- ceeds Captain Westcott's statements. They are fully furnished with howitzers, wagons, horses, and additional supplies. They wiU be mus- tered into service Friday. The following day Mr. Hale again telegraphed: YoNKERS, N.Y., June 14th, 4 o'clock, P.M. Westcott's company has just been mustered into the service.

Sir, — I beg leave to tender m3\self to 5'ou in any capacity however humble, in which it may be possible for me to contribute to the public weal in the present critical emergency. I have no desire to survive the overthrow of the government of the United States. I am ready for any sacrifice to avert such a catastrophe, and I ask only to be permitted to lay down my life in the ser\'ice of the Commonwealth and of the Union. I am, very respectfully, C. Gushing.

Dear Sir, — I pray you not to regard the accompanying proffer in any light other than that of earnest solicitation on my part to discharge my duty to our common country. Permit me to assume that in our past relations, as certainly in our present ones, there has been nothing to forbid me to make, or you to receive, such a proffer at the present time. You alone are able to judge whether, in the scope of official duties, there is anything to assign to me to do. If there be, or not, I pray you to say so to me in all sincerity, in order that, having thus placed myself at your discretion, I may, if not needed directly by you, then decide according to my own judgment what to undertake. I am, very respectfully, C. Gushing. Governor Andrew. NEWBUEYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. 35 REPLY OF GOVERNOR ANDREW. Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Executive Department, Boston, April 27th, 1861. Hon. Caleb Gushing: Sir, — Under the responsibilities of this hour, remitted both as a man and a magistrate to the solemn judgment of conscience and honor, I must remember only that great cause of Constitutional Liberty and of civilization itself, referred to the dread arbitrament of arms ; and I am bound to say that although our personal relations have always been agreeable to m}'self, and notwithstanding your many great qualities fit- ting you for usefulness, yet your relation to public affairs, your fre- quently avowed opinions touching the ideas and sentiments of Massa- chusetts, your intimacy of social, political, and sjonpathetic intercourse with the leading secessionists of the Rebel States, maintained for years, and never (unless at this moment) _ discontinued, forbid my finding you any place in the council or the camp. I am compelled sadly to declare that were I to accept your offer I should dishearten numerous good and loyal men, and tend to demor- alize our military service. How gladly I would have made another reply to your note of the 25th ult., which I had the honor to receive yesterday, I need not declare, nor attempt to express the painful reluc- tance with which this is written. Faithfully, your obedient serv^ant, John A. Andrew, Governor. ORGANIZATION OF THE CITY GREYS, SUBSEQUENTLY COM- PANY A, 17th MASSACHUSETTS VOLUNTEER INFANTRY. The city authorities having leased Essex Hall on State Street for the accommodation of those who might desire to serve their country, on the morning of April 23d a call was made through the Herald for the organization of a new com- pany. A number of experienced military men have urgently requested Capt. John E. ^Eemick, formerly of the Gushing Guards, to tender his services to the government in the present emergency, and unite with them in perfecting a corps in drill and military tactics. Captain Remick has consented, and an invitation is hereby extended to such able-bodied men as are willing to unite with such a company, to appear at Essex Hall this evening at 7.30 p.m., where further arrangements will be made. A paper may be found at the express office of David F. Brown, No. 6 Pleasant Street, where information may be obtained. 36 NEWBURTPORT IN THE CIV'IL WAR, 1861. In response to this call about twenty-five men enrolled themselves at the first meeting. This new organization con- tinued to meet forenoon, afternoon, and evening for drill, until its numbers had increased to seventy-two men, when an election of officers was ordered by the governor to take place Wednesday evening, May 22d, to be presided over by Major Ladd of Boston. At this meeting David F. Brown was elected Captain; Thomas W. Foster, 1st Lieutenant ; WilHam Bell, 2d Lieutenant; Thomas W. Goodwin, 3d Lieutenant ; and Alfred Horton, 4th Lieutenant.

The President of the United States on July 1st issued an order calling for three hundred thousand volunteers to serve for three years, or until the end of the war, to form new regi- ments, and fill up the ranks of those already in the service. July 7th the governor of the Commonwealth issued General Order No. 26, calHng for fifteen thousand volunteers, and as- signing to each city and town the number of men to be fur- nished, which was based upon the annual returns made to the adjutant-general's office by the assessors of the several cities and towns, of men liable to do military duty.

The patriotism of our citizens was to-day displayed in the flying of the national emblems and the decorating of stores and private dwellings. In the central portion of the city nearly all the business houses were deco- rated with the red, white, and blue. In front of the Essex Hall building on State Street, flags and bunting were taste- fully exhibited around the motto, "Our Country: Right or Wrong." AT MOULTON & TALBOT's, STATE STREET. In the forenoon a large and enthusiastic gathering wit- nessed the raising of a flag at the store of Messrs. Moulton & Talbot on State Street. The ceremonies were introduced by the playing of the national airs by the Newburyport Brass Band. The flag was raised by Rev. Samuel J. Spalding, D.D., who, after addressing the people on the importance of support- ing the national government, closed with solemn prayer for the protection of those who had gone in defense of the nation and its flag. Speeches were made bj'' Rev. Daniel P. Pike, E. H. Rollins, Rev. James N. Sykes, D. A. W. Perkins, George J. L. Colby, James Carey, Moody D. Cook, Philip K. Hills, and City Marshal James P. L. Westcott. AT GILLETT & CO.'s EXPRESS OFFICE, PLEASANT STREET. April 23d (Tuesday). Messrs. Gillett & Co. hoisted the national flag upon a staff in front of their express office in the presence of a very large gathering of people, who crowded the streets, windows, and roofs in the vicinity to witness the 40 NEWBUIIYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. scene. The flag was hoisted by the Rev. J. E. Bruce, and was saluted with music by the Newburyport Band. Com- pany B of Byfield, Capt. T. Lyman Pearson, being present, greeted it with cheers as it was unfurled to the breeze, while the plaudits of the people were long and continuous. Prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Bruce, in behalf of our coun- try, its free institutions, and the sacrifices being made for its preservation by the thousands who volunteered in its defense. AT THE BROWN HIGH SCHOOL. April 24.th (Wednesday). The members of the Brown High School located on State Street attested their patriotism and devotion to the cause of the Union by hoisting the Amer- ican flag on a staff erected near their school building. Music was furnished by the Newburyport Band, and speeches made by William H. Pearson, Sylvester Burnham, and William H. Bartlett, graduates from the school. General Gushing, Rich- ard S. Spofford, Jr., and Rev. Daniel P. Pike, made brief ad- dresses, expressing their love for the Union, and the support it should receive from all who claimed its protection. The exer- cises were closed by the reciting of a portion of Patrick Henry's great war speech, by George R. Merrill, a member of the school. General Gushing in his speech said that: He cordially participated in the present patriotic manifestation. Long may this glorious flag wave above our heads, the banner of vic- tory and the symbol of our national honor. Our dear country now in- deed demands the devotion of all peoj)le, for the dire calamity of civil war is upon us. He had labored hitherto for many years, earnestly and in good faith at least, first for the conservation of the Union, and then to avert the evils of fratricidal war, and of what he might have said in that relation he had nothing now to retract. But the day of discussion had passed, and that of action had arrived. He had before him the question, which had occurred to public men in other countries, when political convulsions divided friend from friend and brother from brother, and sometimes arrayed them against one another in hostile camp and in deadly strife. What in such a case is the dictate of duty? Should we retire into safe seclusion in a foreign coimtry, to return in better times, to wear the honor of freedom, like Hyde? Or should we remain to affront the perils of our lot, like Faukland or Vance? The latter course, if not the safer NEWBURYPOET IK THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. 41 one, is at any rate the more courageous one. He chose so to act. He was a citizen of the United States, owing allegiance to the Constitution, and bound by fonstitutional duty to support its government, and he should do so. He was a son of Massachusetts, attached to her by ties of birth and affection, and from which neither friend nor foe should sever him. He would yield to no man in faithfulness to the Union, or in zeal for the maintenance of the laws and the constitutional authorities of the Union; and to that end he stood prepared, if occasion should call for it, to testify his sense of public duty by entering the field again at the com- mand of the Commonwealth or of the Union. AT WILSON BROS., STRONG STREET. April 26th (Friday). This afternoon the city was unusu- ally active. Thousands assembled to pay homage to the "Flag of the Union," that was now looked upon by the people of the North with a greater reverence and respect than ever before. The first gathering was at the establishment of Messrs. Wilson, carvers, on Strong Street, where amid the booming of cannon and the sweet strains of music a beautiful life-sized statue was unveiled representing the "Daughter of the Regiment," above which floated the national flag. After the cheers with which it was greeted had died away, Rev. Samuel J. Spalding offered an earnest and patriotic prayer for the unity and safety of the republic. Speeches were made by Rev. Daniel P. Pike and Edward Burrill, Esq. AT THE FEMALE HIGH AND GRAMMAR SCHOOLS, WASHINGTON STREET. From Strong Street the multitude gathered at the school building, corner of Washington and Court streets, to witness the raising of the Star-Spangled Banner by the young ladies of the female High and Grammar Schools. Rev. John R. Thurs- ton offered prayer, after which the young ladies hoisted the flag, which was greeted by the singing of: Our flag is there! Our flag is there! We'll hail it with three loud huzzas. Our flag is there! Our flag is there! Behold the glorious Stripes and Stars. 42 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. Remarks were made by Mr. William C. Todd, principal of the High School, George J. L. Colby, and Rev. Messrs. Fletcher, Pike, Muzzy, Thurston, and Cruickshanks. AT THE WEST MALE GRAMMAR SCHOOL.

Prichard, and Wooster Smith were selected a committee to make all necessary ar- rangements for the reception of the Gushing Guards on their return from their three months' campaign in defence of the capital. THEIR ARRIVAL IN NEWBURYPORT. August 1st (Thursday). A telegram from Maj. Ben: Perley Poore of the 8th Regiment announced that the regiment had arrived in Boston, and that the Gushing Guards would return home in the afternoon. All day the people had been waiting and preparing for them. They left on a cold, rainy, cheerless day in April, few in numbers, with not a cheer to encourage or enliven their departure; they returned, and the firing of cannon, the ringing of bells, and the joyous shouts of the people, announced their arrival. State Street was thronged with people, flags were flying, and stores and residences deco- rated in honor of the brave men who were the first to respond in defense of the Constitution and the Union. NEWBtJRYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1801. 51 The company reached home at 6 p.m., and were received at the railway-cro.ssing on State Street by the Veteran Artil- lery Association, Capt. John Moore, accompanied by the New- buryport Band. There was also a juvenile company, the Dodge Cadets, commanded by Master Edward W. Dodge. These companies, with a cavalcade of citizens, escorted the Guards down State Street, through Broadway, up Greene Street to City Hall, where dinner was provided. After dinner they returned to their famihes and friends, happy ^v-ith the reflection that they had performed their duties honestly, faith- fully, and fearlessly. There were sixty-six men from Xew- buryport in the 8th Regiment during the three months' cam- paign. Fifty-two of them re-entered the service. BECRUITING IX NEWBURYPORT DURING THE SUMMER OF 1861. After the departure of Captain Brown's company attached to the 17th Massachusetts Infantry, recruiting in our city was comparatively dull. Efforts were made by several who had seen service in the three months' campaign to organize com- panies, but the experience of the National Guards in being or- dered into service deterred many from enlisting in new or- ganizations.

THE CTTY WITHHOLDS STATE AID FROM THE FAMILIES OF VOL- UNTEERS, RESIDENTS OF NEWBURYPORT, WHO JOINED THE 40th NEW YORK (mOZART) REGIMENT, As the Act of the Legislature granting aid to the families of volunteers applied only to the families of those who en- listed in the volunteer regiments of the State, and not to those who joined the 40th Xew York (Mozart) Regiment, the city, October 1st, suspended further assistance to those families.

To THE Mayor, Aldermen axd Ctty Coxtncil of Xewburyport: Gentlemen, — The undersisned committee of the Relief Fund for the families of those volunteer? who have enhsted in the army of the United States from this city, knowing that the necessities of these fam- ilies require that assistance should stiU be afforded to those of the Na- tional Guards, so called, as well as to the others, and believing that our State legislature at its next session wiU pass acts pa\-ing the families of those companies who unfortunately joined the Mozart Regiment, the same as those volunteers who are enrolled in the Massachusetts regi- ments, now propose to the city government, that if they will continue to pay to the families of the National Guards such sums as they ha^-e done from an appropriation by the city government until last week, not to exceed forty-eight dollars per week, if the legislature at its next session does not appropriate and cause to be paid such siuns as may henceforth be paid to such families by the city government, that we will bind ourselves as a committee to refund to the city all such sums so paid from the funds placed under our control.

LAUNCH OF THE GUNBOAT MARBLEHEAD. October l^th (Wednesday). Hon. George W. Jackman, Jr., launched from his ship-yard on Merrimack Street this morn- ing the gunboat Marhlehead. Her length was 173 feet, breadth of beam 28 feet, depth of hold 12 feet, measuring 510 tons. She was schooner-rigged, and carried in her sails 2,000 yards of canvas. Messrs.

The forward berth deck accommodated eighty men, and the three cabins fur- nished quarters for fifteen officers. The forward berth deck was provided with cooking apparatus, also a medicine chest and library furnished by the ladies of this city. Under this apartment was the magazine with flooding cocks on each side in case of fire ; the shell room ; the sail room, Hned with zinc, for the spare sails; the bread room, Uned with tin, capable of holding six thousand pounds of bread. She was furnished with two horizontal engines of eighteen inch stroke and thirty inch cylinders, driving a screw propeller nine feet in diameter. In addition to the main engines there was an auxiliary engine of ten horse power. The boilers were of Marston's build, and weighed 21 tons, having 1,760 tubes 2 inches in diameter, and two furnaces 6^ feet in length by 3^ feet in breadth. The construction of the hull was under the supervision of R. B. Forbes, Esq., of Boston, and the machinery under the inspection of Clark Fisher, Engineer U.S.N.

When in commission in 1862, she carried four guns, and was attached to the South Atlantic Blockading Squadron, under the command of Lieut.-Com. R. W. Scott. In 1863 she was armed with six guns, and commanded by Lieut.-Com. R. W. Meade, Jr., and attached to the same squad- ron. In 1864 she earned seven guns, and was stationed at the Naval Academy, Newport. AID TO THE FAMILIES OF VOLUNTEERS. November 1st. One hundred and fifty families were re- ceiving State aid on account of persons in the army, viz., in Ward 1. 25; Ward 2, 29; Ward 3, 14; Ward 4, 21; Ward 5, 39; Ward 6, 22. The amount paid per week, $325. RECRUITING OF THE McCLELLAN GUARDS, AND THEIR ASSIGN- MENT TO THE IITH MASSACHUSETTS INFANTRY. Under Special Order No. 572, issued by the adjutant- general of the Commonwealth, Messrs. Henry W. Moulton, Luther Dame, WiUiam D. Foster, and John W. Ricker com- 56 NEWBUEYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. menced about the middle of October the recruiting of a com- pany for three years' service to be known as the McClellan Guards. About sixty men were enlisted in this city, and oc- cupied for a time as barracks the rooms over the store No. 13 Market Square. To complete the organization the company was filled up by the addition of recruits from Lynn and other parts of Essex County. When the recruiting for the company began, it was expected it would be assigned to one of the new regiments then being organized by the governor ; but an order from the War Department prohibiting the organization of any more new regiments caused the disbanding of many companies then being raised, and rendered it necessary for the governor to order the McClellan Guards to join the 11th Massachusetts Infantry then on duty on the Lower Potomac, Maryland shore. The company organization was not preserved. Cap- tain Dame, on being ordered to Company C, took with him less than twenty men; the remainder were assigned to other companies as recruits. ENLISTMENTS FOR GENERAL BUTLER's EXPEDITION TO NEW ORLEANS. November 12th. Adjutant George Creasey, Capt. Albert W. Bartlett, and Lieuts. Gamahel Hodges and George Barker, were authorized by the governor to recruit a company of infantry for three years' service, provided the required num- ber of men could be raised within twenty days. A recruiting office was opened at the armory of the Cushing Guards, and the following call made: Wanted — Strong, Able-Bodied and Intelligent Men to fill up a new company now being organized at the armory of the Cushing Guards by order of His Excellency Governor Andrew. Every man enlisting will receive pay and rations from the date of enlistment, and also be entitled to all the comforts conferred by the legislature upon Massachu- setts soldiers. This is the best opportunity yet offered to enlist in a corps with officers and men of their own acquaintance. At the expiration of the time specified, thirty men had been recruited ; but as the governor was unwilling to extend the NEWBTJEYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1861. 57 authority, the men were turned over to General Butler, and under command of Lieutenant Barker were assigned to the 30th Massachusetts Infantry, then at Camp Chase, Lowell. AID FOR THE FAMILIES OF THOSE WHO ENLISTED IN THE NAVY. Congress having refused to allow the State credit for en- listments in the navy, the State authorities ruled that the families of those men who had entered this branch of the ser- vice were not entitled to State aid. At a regular meeting of the city government November 4th, Alderman Hale introduced an order, "That the sum of two hundred dollars be appro- priated for the relief of the families of those inhabitants of Newburyport that may be necessitous, and who now are or may be engaged in the naval service of the United States dur- ing the present RebelHon." This order having been rejected by a yea and nay vote, Alderman Hale, December 2d, pre- sented a petition signed by Edward S. Moseley and 743 legal voters, asking for "an appropriation for the support of the families of those of our citizens who have enlisted in the United States Navy." This petition was referred to a joint special committee, consisting of Alderman Isaac Hale and George J. George, and Councilmen Charles M. Hodge, James P. McQuillen, and John J. Currier, who reported that the prayer of the petitioners should be granted. The report of the committee was accepted ; and an order introduced by Councilman Currier, authorizing the committee on finance to hire three hundred dollars, to be paid to the families of those enlisted in the naval service, under the direction of the Relief Committee, was unanimously adopted. 1862.

The causes which have brought our beloved country into this dis- astrous position, it would not be proper for me at this time to discuss One thing is certain, it is the duty of every one in this great crisis to use all the means in his power to extricate the government from this, the worst of all wars, if we would again wish to see that prosperity which was so apparent a year and a half ago. We, as citizens, as patriots, as honest men, irrespective of all party feelings and considerations, should take the greatest of all documents ever written, the Constitution of the United States — the charter of our rights and liberties — for our guide and direction; the peace, prosperity, and happiness of all the inhabit- ants of this ever-cherished country, for our aim; and in the right spirit seek to preserve, strengthen, and perpetuate the best government Divine Providence ever gave or bestowed upon any people. We have yet to offer in this cause the services, voluntarily and early tendered to the government, of a distinguished fellow-citizen who has been long con- spicuous in the discharge of functions of high civil and military posi- tions. We trust that the government will soon be able to avail itself of his distinguished ability and patriotic devotion to the common cause. I will only add, in conclusion of this subject, my full assurance that I need not urge upon you continued attention to the duties devolving upon the city, in relation to those of our number who are now making new proof of the strength and power of Republican government, in vol- untarily bearing arms for its defence and support. 60 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1862.

THE CAPTURE OF FORT DONELSON. February IQth (Sunday Evening). News was received by telegraph of the capture of Fort Donelson by the Union forces under General Grant. The announcement of the news caused the people to gather in large numbers on State Street, and rejoice and congratulate each other upon the brightening pros- pect. Monday, flags were thrown to the breeze, bells were rung, one hundred guns fired, and in the evening houses were illuminated in honor of the glorious victory. Washington's birthday. February 22d (Saturday). In accordance with the recom- mendation of the President, the anniversary of the birthday of the "Father of his Country," the immortal Washington, was NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1862. 61 celebrated in this city with unusual spirit. At sunrise, noon, and sunset the bells of the different churches were rung. Flags were displayed from public buildings and private dwelhngs. Religious services were held in the Court and Prospect Street Churches. At the latter place, the exercises were conducted by the clergymen of the city. Prayers were offered by Rev. Randolph Campbell, Rev. Drs. A. G. Vermilye and Leonard Withington. Selections from Scripture were read by Rev. Dr. WiUiam Horton, and Washington's Farewell Address by Rev. Dr. Samuel J. Spalding. The singing of "Strike the Cymbal," "America," Miss Hannah Gould's beautiful ode, "Who when darkness gathered o'er us," and the "Star-Spangled Banner," was under the direction of Messrs. Warren Currier and James W. Cheney. In the evening the residences or places of busi- ness of William E. Currier, Amos Noyes, Rufus G. Coffin, William B. Morss, Caleb C. Toppan, Charles W. Carter, Dana Dodge, and Rev. J. C. Fletcher were brilliantly illuminated. The residence of Dr. M. M. Mumford, known as the Prince House, attracted particular attention. Over the entrance, and beneath the folds of the Stars and Stripes, were the words, ''Our Guest of 1789." It was at this house Washington re- mained diuring his visit to Newburyport in October, 1789. FAST DAY SERMON BY REV. RANDOLPH CAMPBELL. On Fast Day, at the Prospect Street Church, the pastor, Rev. Randolph Campbell, preached from the text, Isaiah xxxii. 15-19. Subject, "The Union safe, through the gracious out- pouring of the Spirit, and by the hailstorm of judgment upon the Rebellion." The discourse was particularly adapted to the times, and full of patriotism and encouragement. At the request of many of our citizens, it was repeated April 25th. Newburyport, April 21st, 1862. Dear Sir, — BelieA'ing that there are many persons in this com- munity who would like to hear the discourse which, on Fast Day, you delivered so acceptably to your own society, we wish to ask of you the favor of repeating it, so that those interested may have an opportunity to hear. 62 NEWBUKYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1862. If you should consent to comply with this request, you will please to name the time and place which will be most convenient to you. Yours respectfully, Eben F. Stone. Edward S. Moseley. Joshua Hale. Wm. Forbes. John Balch. William Thurston. Charles S. Swasey. A. W. Miltimore. Enoch G. Currier. Nathan A. Moulton. David Wood. George Greenleaf. Henry Frothingham. Wm. W. Caldwell. Amos Noyes. Essex Street, April 22d, 1862. Eben F. Stone, Esq. Dear Sir, — The note from yourself and other gentlemen, requesting a repetition of the discourse delivered by me to my own people last Fast Day, has been received. In the solemnity of the crisis tlu-ough which we are passing, it seems fitting that every citizen should hold himself in readiness to aid and en- courage, as he may be able, a spirit of genuine patriotism. With this view, I shovdd hardly be warranted in declining the request with which you have been pleased to honor me, though a ministry of nearly twenty- five years in this city may witness that I have not been anxious over- much, to act in any public capacity without the sphere of immediate parochial duty. The conviction only deepens in my own soul continually, that, at whatever sacrifice, our National Union must be preserved, and the Re- bellion overthrown; and that, for the accomplishment of this purpose, our confidence must be especially in Him who graciously styles himself "the Hope of Israel, and the Savior thereof in time of trouble." As to the place for the repetition, allow me to suggest that of its original delivery; and for the time, next Friday evening at 7.30 o'clock. Very respectfully yours, Randolph Campbell. AID TO THE FAMILIES OF PERSONS IN THE NAVY DISCONTINUED. May 5th. The city having been paying aid to the families of those who enhsted in the navy, and also to quite a large number who enlisted in the army, where the State would not reimburse, the city council, by an order introduced by Coun- cilman Pillsbury, discontinued such payments: "That the fam- ilies of volunteers in the navy (except in extreme cases, to be decided by vote of the Relief Committee) be stricken from the rolls from and after April 30th, 1862." Such payments amounted in all to about four hundred dollars per month. / NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1862. 63 A SERIES OF VICTORIES. THE RECEPTION OF THE NEWS IN NEWBURYPORT.

THE CALL TO ARMS ! PATRIOT SOLDIERS ! TO THE RESCUE OP THE CAPITAL. We publish the following telegram from Governor Andrew, calling upon the soldiery of the Commonwealth at once to meet on Boston Com- mon, prepared to rush to the defence of the capital now threatened by the rebels and traitors of the South, who, having defeated General Banks, are marching on Washington. No words of ours can add to the call of the governor. The men of Massachusetts, who were not backward in the days of our fathers' struggle for Independence, and who have never failed to answer the call of their country, will be minute men to-daj'. Massachusetts, whose men rescued the capital in 1861, shedding the first blood to suppress treason, will be ready to dare and do to preserve that capital in 1862. Citizen soldiers wiU by the first train or the first con- veyance, from every part of the Commonwealth, start for Boston to an- swer the call of the governor; and the citizens who are not soldiers, but who are willing to become such, will fall in to fill up the ranks. This is to be the most stirring day that Massachusetts has ever known; and the sons of Massachusetts, one and all, wiU perform their duty. GOVERNOR S CALL, Boston, May 25th, 1862.

Alderman Nathaniel Pierce introduced an order: That a bounty of seventy-five (75) dollars per man be offered for 179 able-bodied men between the ages of 17 and 50 years, and residents of this city, to enlist as volunteers from Massachusetts, for the service of the United States, for the term required by the United States; and that said bounty be paid to the order of each individual who shall so enlist, by the city treasurer, until otherwise ordered by the city government, on the presentation of the proper evidence of such enlistment, indorsed by the mayor; and also that a joint special committee, consisting of the mayor and two of this board, and four of the common council, be ap- pointed for the purpose of recruiting them. This order was unanimously adopted; and Aldermen Charles C. Dame and William H. Huse, and Councilmen Dana Dodge, Eben P. Cutter, Wilham H. Johnson, and Moses Pet- tingell, Jr., were appointed as the committee. July 21st (Monday). By a vote of the city council, twenty- five (25) dollars was added to the bounty of seventy-five (75) dollars authorized by the order passed July 10th to be paid for a number not exceeding 179 men; also "that those enlisting under any recruiting officer except those designated by the mayor shall not be entitled to relief from the State fund until such time as they shall be recognized by the governor of the Commonwealth as the quota called for from Newbury- port." THE PRESIDENT CALLS FOR 300,000 MEN FOR NINE MONTHS. August 4th (Monday). The President under this date or- dered a draft for 300,000 militia to serve in the army of the 70 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1862. United States for nine months; also if any State did not by the 15th day of August furnish its quota under the call of July 1st for 300,000 volunteers, the deficiency for that State would be made up by a draft from the mihtia. The number which Massachusetts was called upon to furnish was nineteen thousand and eighty (19,080). The quota of nine months' men for Newbury port was two hundred and eighty-eight (288) men. THE CITY OFFERS A BOUNTY OF $200 FOR VOLUNTEERS UNDER THE CALL OF JULY 1st FOR THREE YEARS. August 5th (Tuesday Evening). The city council held a special meeting, and determined to take the most active measures to fill up the quota of Newburyport under the first call for 300,000 men. By an order presented by Alderman Nathaniel Pierce, the bounty of $100 was increased to S200 per man for all who should enlist previous to August 11th, OFFICIAL PROMULGATION OF THE ORDER BY THE MAYOR. Newburyport, Aug. 7th, 1862. TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS BOUNTY UNTIL THE ELEVENTH OF AUGUST. A bounty of two hundred (200) dollars will be paid to volunteers from this city, who will enlist for the term of service required by the United States, as volunteers from this State, for the suppression of the present rebellion. Said two hundred dollars will be paid to able-bodied men between the ages of 17 and 50 years (who pass the regular examina- tion) as soon as they shall be sworn into the service of the United States, at which time each volunteer will receive, in addition to the sum paid by the city, twenty-five (25) dollars bounty offered by the government, and one month's pay, making in all two hundred and thirty-eight (238) dollars. The volunteer is also entitled to the benefit of the State aid to his family of twelve (12) dollars per month to wife and two children, or one dollar per week each for wife and one child from the time of sign- ing the enlistment papers. Two enlistment offices are now open, — one at the Ward Room, City Hall, under the charge of Capt. A. W. Bartlett; the other at the city marshal's office, in the Market House, under the care of Capt. Ne- hemiah Flanders. These are the only places where men can enlist and receive the bounty offered by the city. George W. Jackman, Jr., Mayor and Recruiting Officer. By order of His Excellency, John A. Andrew, Governor of the Common- wealth of Massachusetts. NEWBUEYPOKT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1862. ', 1864, was 22,360- 162 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. The returns made in response to the circular of March 31st and July 21st showed that the whole number of naval enlistments claimed by the cities and towns was 16,181, being 6,179 less than the number copied from the rolls of the receiving-ship. The instructions given by the commissioners to their clerks were: — First, To credit only those who had joined the service subsequent to the rebellion. Second, Only those who had joined the service at some rendezvous in the State. Third, When a man was claimed by two or more cities or towns, neither city or town was to receive the credit, but the credit in dispute was to be given to the State at large. As the enlistments were for one, two, and three years, the War Department, under date of Aug. 22d, 1864, directed that in the system of credits the conmiissioners be governed by the same rules as in credits for enlistment in the army. By this method only three years' men counted as a unit, it took three one year's men to count one, and three two years' men to count two. The total number of enlistments, when re- duced to a three years' term of service, was 16,625. The number of enlistments claimed by the cities and towns reduced to a three years' term of service, 9,020, leaving 7,605, which were distributed ipro rata to the credit of the cities and towns of the State. This method of allowing credits will readily account for the large number of men credited to our city in this branch of the service who were neither natives nor resi- dents of Newbury port; and the failure of the city to claim or successfully establish their title to those who were actually residents at the time of enlistment, is the cause of so many of our own citizens being credited to other cities and towns in the Commonwealth. April \st (Friday). By invitation of Capt. George Creasey, the officers of the 30th Massachusetts Infantry who had re- turned from Louisiana with the regiment, on veteran fur- lough, were entertained in the evening at the Ocean House. NEWBUEYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. 163 The names of the officers present were Horace O. Whittemore of Boston, Lieut.-Col. Com'd'g Regiment; Wilham F. Clark of Boston, Adjutant; Marsh A. Ferris of Boston, Capt. of Com- pany D; Brent Johnson, Jr., of Lowell, Capt. of Company F; George Creasey of Newburyport, Capt. of Company I; George Barker of Newburyport, 1st Lieut, of Company E; Thomas B. Johnson of Lowell, 1st Lieut, of Company H; George F. Whit- comb of Boston, 1st Lieut, of Company K; Gurdon S. Brown of Boston, 1st Lieut, of Company I; Nathaniel K. Reed of Lowell, 1st Lieut, of Company B; John P. Haley of Chelsea, 2d Lieut, of Company A; Joseph Davis of Roxbury, 2d Lieut, of Company K; H. Warren Howe of Lowell, 2d Lieut, of Company B. With them were other invited guests, — His Honor the Mayor George W. Jackman, Jr., Col. Frederick J. Coffin of the 8th Regiment, the officers of the Cushing Guards, and City Cadets. April 15th (Friday). Louis D. B. Somerby of Companj- A, 48th Massachusetts Infantry, and later of Company M, 2d Massachusetts Heavy Artillery, was buried from the Uni- versalist Church, Middle Street, this Friday afternoon. The services at the church were conducted by Rev. Wil- lard Spaulding of Salem, Rev. D. T. Fiske, D.D., and Chap- lain Samuel J. Spalding, of this city. The military escort was commanded by Capt. Luther Dame, and consisted of the City Cadets and members of Company A of the 48th Regi- ment formed as a battalion. April 17th (Sunday). The funeral of Alfred F. Lee of the 2d Massachusetts Cavalry took place from the house where he resided, on Lime Street. Alfred F. Lee, son of John and Hannah (Colby) Lee, was born in Amesbury, Mass., Dec. 22d, 1837, and was by occupa- tion a blacksmith. At the time of his enlistment he was residing at Vallejo, Cal., and when an opportunity was given for those who emigrated from Massachusetts to enlist and serve for their native State, he was one of the first to offer. He enlisted at San Francisco, Cal., Dec. 10th, 1862, as one of the "California Hundred," and arrived at Camp Meigs Readville, Jan. 3d, 1863. This company, raised by Capt. J. Sewall Reed, was designated Company A, 2d Massachusetts 164 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. Cavalry. He left Massachusetts with his company, Feb. 12th, 1863. April 24th (Sunday). The Gushing Guards, Gapt. Stephen D. Gardiner, accompanied by the Mechanics' Brass Band of Amesbury, attended the funeral of Gorp. WilHam H. Daniels, one of its members. Gorporal Daniels was a native of Para- dise, N. S., but had resided in this city for many years pre- vious to the war. He was a member of Gompany A, Gushing Guards, 8th Regiment, during their nine months' service in North Garolina, and was one of those who accompanied the regiment to Maryland Heights and Harper's Ferry. He re- turned home with the company at the expiration of its service, suffering from change of climate, and finally passed away in consumption. April 2Sth (Thursday). At a meeting of the city council, Alderman Gurrier offered the following order, which was adopted: — That the mayor be and hereby is authorized to employ a suitable person at a fair compensation to make out a complete list of those per- sons who have enlisted in the army or the navy from this city since the commencement of the present Civil War, said list to state the date of discharge (if discharged), or, in case of decease, the date of death. It shall also be the duty of the person so employed to compare said list with the muster rolls of the different regiments at the State House in Boston, in order to ascertain whether the men so enlisted have been properly credited to the quota of the city of Newburyport. This order was never executed. Had it been acted upon, it would have provided the city with a complete and correct roll of all men furnished for the army and navy, and been a finan- cial saving to the city as well as a reliable military record of those who certainly deserved to be remembered in the future. May 2d (Monday). The Gity Gadets, Gapt. Luther Dame, designated in the State Militia as the 3d Unattached Gom- pany, having been ordered to report at Readville to-day, left the city on the eight o'clock morning train. They were ac- companied by the Portsmouth Gornet Band, and escorted by the city council and a delegation from the Veteran Artillery Association. NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. 165 The company was mustered into service for ninety days, May 3d, and did garrison duty at Fort Pickering, Salem Harbor, and was mustered out Aug. 5th, 1864.

The continued fighting of our arm- ies on their advance to Richmond, and the large number of wounded and suffering soldiers who were being daily sent to the hospitals from the battlefields, prompted our patriotic fellow-citizen Edward S. Moseley, Esq., to solicit contributions for their relief. In less than a week he collected $2,008.50, and in accordance with the wishes of the donors, $1,900 was forwarded to the Christian Commission, and the remainder to the Sanitary Commission. Mr. Moseley, in acknowledging the sums received, said that — The ordinary trouble attending the collection of money, even for benevolent purposes, has in this instance been entirely superseded; those who have subscribed having in most instances called for the purpose, and all having esteemed it a privilege to aid in relieving the sufferings of men who have periled their lives for the integrity of the Union.

In anticipation of a call from the United States Government for troops to fill up the organizations in the field, General Order No. 17, dated Boston, May 31st, 1864, was issued, continuing as recruiting officers the chairman of the selectmen of towns and the mayors and aldermen of cities throughout the Commonwealth. The following order relating to the same subject was received from the District Provost- Marshal : — Provost-Marshal's Office, Fifth District Massachusetts, Salem, June 2d, 1864, To Hon. Geo. W. Jackman, Jr., Mayor of Newbury port : Sir, — I would most respectfully state that I have received orders to resume enlistment, and muster into the service of the United States such volunteers as may be offered at this office ; and inclose printed Gen- eral Instructions, etc. I am ordered to recognize selectmen of towns and mayors and alder- 168 KEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. men of cities as recruiting agents, and none others, so that the business will be performed by responsible parties. Recruits will be mustered into the service of the United States by me, thereby securing a more simple manner of credit to the different sub-districts, and in all cases to be regarded as final. No other claim for expenditure on account of recruiting service (beyond the premiums) will be entertained. Very respectfully, Danl. H. Johnson, Jr., Captain and Provost-Marshal 5th District Massachusetts. At a meeting of the city council, Monday evening, June 6th, Mayor Jackman presented the following recommendations : — City of Newburyport. To THE City Council: Gentlemen, — Having received notices from the Adjutant-General of the Commonwealth, and from the Provost-Marshal of District No. 5, that in anticipation of another call for men by the United States Govern- ment, to fill up the regmients now in the field from this State, they are now ready to receive recruits for such call as may hereafter be made, and to accredit the same to the several towns and cities that may furnish them. I would therefore recommend that the city council offer such bounty as the State law recognizes (the same being $125) to any person who will enlist as a volunteer from this city, and who shall be accredited as one of its quota. The government allows a recruiting fee of $10 for raw recruits, and $15 for veterans, to be paid to the recruiting officer as soon as the recruit shall have been received at Gallop's Island, Boston Harbor. The State still continues their bounty of $300, which will also be paid to the recruit within the week that he shall arrive at Gallop's Island. The government also pay a bounty of $100 to each recruit, $25 of which will be paid on being mustered into the service, and the remaining $75 at the end of his term of enlistment. We have now accredited to the city 17 men, on the next call that may be made, and I have no doubt but that we shall have a much larger number to our credit when we get our rolls all made up; but be that as it may, I am very desirous, and confidentially trust, that we shall with proper care and diligence on our part, be able to furnish the men called for from this city, voluntarily between now and the time the draft may be ordered. Respectfully submitted, Geo. W. Jackman, Jr., Mayor. NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. 169 June 8th (Wednesday). Acting upon the suggestion of the city council, the mayor issued the following call for enlist- ments : — VOLUNTEERS FOR THE SEVERAL MASSACHUSETTS REGIMENTS NOW IN THE FIELD WANTED BY THE CITY OF NEWBURYPORT For which a bounty ^\all be paid by the city of $125.00 Bounty to be paid by the State 325.00 Bounty to be paid by the United States Government .... 100.00 Making the sum of $550.00 The city bounty will be paid immediately on presentation to the city treasurer of a certificate from the provost-marshal of this district, that the recruit has been mustered into the ser%ace of the United States, and accredited to the city of Newburyport. The State bounty will be paid to the recruit only within one week after his arrival at Gallop's Island, Boston Harbor. The government bounty, $25, will be paid before leaving the State, and the remaining $75 on the expiration of the term of enlistment. The recruit can rest assured that there will be no delay in the pay- ment of the city and State bounties. Recruiting offices are now open, — one at the city marshal's office, under the charge of Nehemiah Flanders; and one at No. 11 State Street, under the charge of Lieut. John W. Ricker. Geo. W. Jackman, Jr., Mayor. Newburyport, June 8th, 1864. June 20th (Monday). John G. Dillingham of Company G, 32d Massachusetts Infantry, was buried from the depot of the Newburyport Railroad at nine o'clock this evening, on the arrival of the train from Boston. The exercises were con- ducted by Rev. James N. Sykes of the Congress Street Bap- tist Church, and were most solemn and impressive. Mr. Dillingham was born in Searsport, Me., Sept. 20th, 1829, and was the son of William and Mary Dillingham. June 20th. At the meeting of the city council, the follow- ing order regarding the enrollment list was adopted: — " That a joint .special committee, consisting of the board of mayor and aldermen, and one member of the common council from each ward, be appointed to revise the enrolbnent list without delay, in order that 170 NEWBURYPOET IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. it may be in readiness when the anticipated draft for the month of July shall be put in force." In addition to the mayor and aldermen, Coun- cilmen William Forbes, Samuel A. Smith, Thomas C. Goodwin, Jolin Currier, 3d, Thomas H. Cutter, and Paul G. Lunt constituted the com- mittee. In May, 1864, the enrollment Act was amended by Con- gress, abolishing all the exemptions of the original Act be- cause of social relations, and consolidating the first and second classes, thus making all between the ages of twenty and forty- five years equally liable to the draft. The amendments which made this law so rigid were drawn up and recommended to Congress by a member of the Enrolling Board of this district, and very greatly diminished the chances of exemption for physical disability. The commutation clause was of no per- manent benefit to the person liable to draft, — it simply released him from a particular conscription: neither would the furnishing of a substitute, unless he be an alien, exempt the principal for three years. If the substitute be an able-bodied man of suitable age liable to military duty, the person fur- nishing such substitute was again liable when that particular enrollment was exhausted. If, again, the substitute be but eighteen years of age, the drafted man was exempt for but two years, at the end of which time the substitute having arrived at the age of twenty years, both he and the principal were liable. June 2Ath (Friday). In the Newburyport Herald the mayor publishes the following communication under the cap- tion of "How Shall We Escape the Draft?" — Mr. Editor, — The city of Newburyport should at once proceed to enlist men for the army and navy of our government. In what way are we to furnish our quota for the next call, which, without doubt, vAW be ordered immediately? We must do as well by the men who enlist as other towns and cities in the Commonwealth, or we cannot obtain them. I would like to know whether there is any class of our citizens that would like to have another draft made here? If there is, I wish they would make themselves known, and let the citizens at large know their Aaews upon the subject. The city council has offered all the bounty it has a right to under the State law. I notice in the Herald of Wednesday, that the town of NEWBDRYPOET IN THE CIVIL WAR, 18(54. 171 Georgetown offers $625 for volunteers. Seventy dollars of that sum must be raised by subscription among her citizens. Cannot our rich and influential men come forward with their money and their influence in this cause, and show by their liberality that they do not want a draft here, but are willing to subscribe a sum of money, so that, with the other bounties offered by the government, State, and city, we may be able to offer men who will enlist from this city, as large a sum of money as they can obtain elsewhere? The War Department have decided that men must be credited to the town where their names appear on the muster roll; consequently, we are losing our men every day, for the want of funds to pay them what they can obtain in other places; and unless there is an effort made here on the part of our citizens to raise a fund in order that the city may be able to pay as high a bounty for men as other towns do, it will be impos- sible to enlist a single man here, and our men will have to be raised bv draft, which I shall very much regret. Yours very truly, Geo. W. Jackman, Jr., Mayor, June 23d, 1864. July Ath (Monday). By order of the city council the mayor caused the various church bells in the city to be rung one half-hour at sunrise, noon, and sunset, and a national salute to be fired at the same hours. July 5th. At a meeting of the city council, the following orders introduced by Alderman Greenough were adopted: — That the mayor be and hereby is authorized to hire a sum of money not exceeding twenty thousand (20,000) dollars to pay bounties to sol- diers to fill the quota of this city under the next call. That the mayor be requested to call a public meeting of the citi- zens of this city for the purpose of taking measures to raise the men likely to be called for by the President in the next call for troops to fill the quota of this city. At the same meeting the mayor laid before the board a communication from the General Recruiting Committee — That all money that may be raised in separate wards be kept for each separate ward as a AVard Fund imtil the quota for said wards are full, and the surplus of each ward shall be paid pro rata among the wards according to the number desired to make out their respective quotas, whose quotas are not full. 172 NEWBUKYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. In conformity to the above order, the mayor through the Herald issued the following call: — City of Newburyport, Mayor's Office, July 7th, 1864. By a vote of the city council, I am directed to call a meeting of th« citizens for the purpose of consulting upon the most feasible plan to raise men for the quota of the city under the next call of the President. I do therefore request all legal voters to meet at the City Hall on Saturday evening next, 9th inst., at eight o'clock, for the purpose above named. Geo. W. Jackman, Jr., Mayor. The meeting in answer to this call was well attended and spirited. Mayor Jackman presided, and Albert W. Greenleaf, Esq., acted as secretary. After giving some valuable informa- tion regarding what had been done by the city in providing men and means, the chairman called upon those present to propose some plan by which the quota of Newburyport could be filled. On motion of Philip K. Hills, Esq., a committee, consisting of Philip K. Hills, Paul G. Lunt, Charles T. Smith, Richard Stone, William H. Huse, and Dr. Henry C. Perkins, was selected to prepare and present some plan of action. After remarks by Phihp K. Hills, Esq., Col. Eben F. Stone, and Capt. Henry W. Moulton, the meeting adjourned to Monday evening. July Wth (Monday). The citizens' meeting, held this even- ing by adjournment from Saturday evening last, was very large and interesting, the mayor presiding. The committee appointed at the previous meeting reported the following resolutions, which were unanimously adopted: — Resolved, That in view of the critical situation of our national affairs, and of the moral certainty that a draft will soon be ordered by the gov- ernment, it is of primary importance that some scheme should be imme- diately organized whereby our fellow-citizens shall be reasonably secure against the risks and evils of a draft, and the city be enabled, promptly and honorably, to recognize and discharge its duties and responsibilities; therefore, Resolved, That the citizens of Newburyport do hereby resolve them- selves into an association, in the nature of a mutual insurance company, NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. 173 for their mutual protection, and do agree by individual contribution to raise a fund for the purpose of procuring substitutes and volunteers until the quota of the city is full. Resolved, That to secure the formation of this fund it is important that some authoritative expression of opinion should be had in regard to the minimum sum which it is the duty of every loj^al citizen to pay, trusting to the generosity and patriotism of every man to increase this sum when his means will admit ; therefore, it is decided that it is the duty of every citizen liable to a draft to contribute at least twenty (20) dollars, and that this contribution shall be regarded, not as a voluntary gift, but as the discharge of an obligation which cannot be honorably denied or repudiated. Resolved, That it is the duty of all loyal citizens to do all in their power to create a public sentiment which shall enforce and give effect to this scheme by making it discreditable for any man, whether liable to militarj^ duty or not, to refuse the payment of his just proportion of the general fund ; and to this end the Committee of Assessment and Col- lection shall publish, from time to time, the names of the contributors, with the amount subscribed by each. Resolved, That a Committee of Assessment and Collection be ap- pointed, consisting of the chairman and secretary of the meeting, with three men from each ward, whose duty it shall be to solicit and collect from the citizens of their respective wards their proportion of the gen- eral fund; and the payment so obtained shall, subject to the following conditions, be deposited with the city treasurer, to the credit of the re- spective wards, and subject to the order of the mayor and aldermen, who shall apply the same equitably, in such a manner as to protect the interests of the different wards in proportion to their respective contri- butions; and to secure this equitable distribution of the funds, it shall be the duty of the committee, before the money collected by them is deposited Avith the city treasurer, to agree with the Board of mayor and aldermen upon some plan of distribution which shall, in their opinion, adequately protect the interests of the different wards. And this com- mittee shall also make it a condition of their deposit that they shall be entitled, at any time, to inspect the books of the treasurer and ascertain how the money has been applied. Resolved, That the funds obtained by this scheme shall be applied exclusively to the payment of bounties to volunteers or substitutes; and no part of the same shall be expended in the cost of advertisements or music, or other incidental expenses. Resolved, That as an inducement to encourage the most liberal do- nations on the part of our citizens, it is expedient to provide that each contributor, in case of being personally drafted, shall have the right to draw from the general fund double the amount he has paid in, pro- vided the condition of the treasury will justify such a draft, and the amount thereof does not exceed the bounty offered by the city for a 174 NEWBUEYPOET IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. volunteer; otherwise, pro rata. And it is expedient further to provide that any subscriber who has paid a sum not less than the minimum shall have the right of drawing from the treasury the amount paid as a bounty to volunteers, if he shall furnish a substitute or representative recruit. The committee to carry out the above program in their several wards was as follows : — Ward 1. Moses Pettingell, Jr., B. Gardiner Gerrish, and Rufus Adams. Ward 2. Charles M. Bayley, William B.

General Order No. 24 from the adjutant-general's office, dated Boston, July 6th, 1864, stated that 5,000 infantry volun- teers had been called for from Massachusetts, for one hun- dred days' service in the fortifications near the city of Wash- ington; that the services of the men were required at once, and ordering the officers in command of regiments and com- panies of Massachusetts militia to immediately perfect their organizations and report for orders. The order further stated that in addition to the United States pay each non- commissioned officer and private would receive from the Com- monwealth twenty (20) dollars per month during his term of service, also that volunteers under this call would be exempted from any draft that might be ordered during such term of one hundred days' service. In compliance with this order, Capt. Stephen D. Gardiner of the Gushing Guards, July 7th, published the following order: — In response to General Order No. 24, every member of Company A, Gushing Guards, 8th Regiment M. V. M., is requested to report at the armory. No. 12 Hale's Court, at eight o'clock this p.m., to take meas- ures for immediately recruiting the corps for one hundred days' service in the forts around Washington. It is hoped that every member will readily respond and use his utmost endeavor to fill up the corps. . . . Stephen D. Gardiner, Captain. NEWBUEYPOET IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. 175 July ISih. At a special meeting of the city council, an order was adopted authorizing the mayor to hire a sum of money sufficient to pay to each private and non-commissioned officer of Company A, 8th Massachusetts Regiment, Gushing Guards, twenty dollars, until such time as they shall receive their allotment from the State. An order was also adopted authorizing the mayor to em- ploy a suitable person or persons to ascertain the names of all those enrolled in this city who have attained the age of forty-five years, and also all aliens, and take such steps as may be necessary to have their names stricken from the list. July 18th (Monday). A call for 500,000 men by the President of the United States. A PROCLAMATION, Whereas, By an Act approved July 6th, 1864, it is provided that the President of the United States may call for any number of men as volun- teers, for the respective terms of one, two, and three years for military service, and that in case the quota or any part thereof of any town, town- ship, ward of a city, precinct, or election district, or of a county not so subdivided, shall not be filled within fifty days after such call, the Presi- dent shall immediately order a draft for one year, to fill such quota or any part thereof which may be unfilled, and Whereas, The new enrollment heretofore ordered is so far completed as that the aforementioned Act may now be put in operation for recruit- ing and keeping up the strength of the armies in the field, for garrisons and such military operations as may be required for the purpose of sup- pressing the rebellion and restoring the authority of the United States in the insurgent States, Now, therefore, I, Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, do issue tliis my call for five hundred thousand volunteers for military service, provided, nevertheless, that all credits that may be established under section eight of aforesaid Act, on account of persons who have entered the naval service during the present rebellion, and by credits for men furnished to military service in excess of calls heretofore made for volunteers, will be accepted under the call for one, two, or three years as they may elect, and will be entitled to the bounty provided by law for the period of service for which they enlist, and I hereby proclaim, order, and direct that immediately after the fifth of September, being fifty days from the date of this call, a draft for troops to serve for one year shall be held in every town, township, ward of a city, precinct, election district, or as a county not so subdivided to fill the quota which 176 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. shaU be assigned to it under this caU or any part hereof which may be unfilled by volunteers on the said fifth day of September, 1864. (Signed) Abraham Lincoln. By the President, Wm. H. Seward, Secretary of State. Washington, July ISth, 1864. The demand upon the State under this call was for 21,670 men; the number to be furnished by the 5th District, 2,123 men- the quota assigned to Newburyport was for Ward One, 43; Ward Two, 31; Ward Three, 30; Ward Four, 32; Ward Five, 30; Ward Six, 35; Total, 201 men. July I9th. The Gushing Guards, Company A of the 8th Regiment, having recruited to the maximum number, under the'' call for one hundred days, left the city for camp at Read- ville Mass.

The 60th Infantry, Massachusetts Volunteer Militia, was mustered into service July, 1864, at Readville, Mass., and left the State August 1st. It v^as ordered to Indianapohs, Ind., where it remained, doing guard duty until the expiration of its term. It was mustered out Nov. 30th, 1864. None of those who served in the one hundred days' mihtia organizations were credited to the quota of the State, consequently the enlistro.ents in the above companies did not count on the quota of the city. Juhj 23d. The mayor, in behalf of the Assessment and Collection Committee, made the following appeal through the Herald : — THE LAST APPEAL. The only partial success of the efforts of the Citizens' Committee thus far to obtain a fund for the purchase of recruits, has induced them to make the followinfj; statement. The quota of the city under the pre- vious call for 500,000 men was 306. The credits which the city will probably have allowed, including those from the navy, will amount to about 100. Assuming, therefore, that the quota in this case will be about the same as before, the city, under the present call, will have to raise about 200 men. The committee think that they are warranted 178 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 18G4. in saying that, if a fund of $25,000 can be formed, the required number of men can be secured. The amount now subscribed is about $11,000 by persons liable to military dut}', very few of this class refusing to sub- scribe their proportion of $20 or upwards. What is needed is a more generous contribution from those persons who are exempt from a draft, and unless it be possible to persuade them to increase their contributions, the draft cannot be avoided. Certainly, loyal men, whose rights and property are at stake, will not insist that it is the duty exclusively of those who are liable to a draft to protect themselves, without looking for aid and support from those of their fellow-citizens who, though largely interested in the integrity of the government, by reason of age are exempt from military duty. Neither can it be reasonably objected that this money should be raised by a tax, since the entire power to assess and enforce a tax for this pur- pose is limited by law to a bountj'^ of $125, which has already been ex- hausted. If the amount needed in addition to the bounty of $125 be raised at all, it must be done by the voluntary act of the citizens. There is not, under the law, any compulsory power. The committee would suggest, that if those not liable to a draft will subscribe a sum not less than one-fourth of their annual city tax, the sum required to meet tliis exigency can be raised without any diffi- culty, and that, too, -wdthout any injustice or inequality. If it be under- stood that a subscription upon this principle will supply the amount needed, and will be considered a full discharge of every man's duty in the premises, every man who is desirous of doing his share can easily determine what that is. This suggestion is made in no spirit of dicta- tion, but in the hope that something, in this way, may be done towards removing certain obstacles in the way of an equal subscription. Whatever is done must be done quickly. Already the neighboring towns, by superior diligence, and by means of a plan similar to the one adopted by us, have obtained their full quotas. It is to be hoped that we shall succeed in avoiding a draft. But we can only do it by display- ing an activity and spirit of generous loyalty commensurate with the occasion. By order of the committee, Geo. W. Jackman, Jr., Chairman. Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Headquarters, Boston, July 14th, 1864. General Order No. 27. By an Act of Congress passed the fourth day of July, 1SG4, it is en- acted that it shall be lawful for the executive of any of the States to send recruiting agents into any of the States declared to be in rebellion, except Arkansas, Tennessee, and Louisiana, to recruit volunteers, who shall be credited to the State which may procure the enlistment, and to the respective subdivisions thereof. . . NEWBDRYPOET IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. 179 It is ordered . . . That "Representative Recruits" may be obtained through the provost-marshal by persons making the deposit of one hun- dred and twenty-five dollars for each recruit required. . . . By order of His Excellency, John A. Andrew, Governor and Com- mander-in-Chief. William Schouler, A djutant-General. July 25th (Monday). At a special meeting of the city council, the following order was adopted: "That the mayor be and is hereby authorized to deposit with the treasurer of the Commonwealth the sum of $6,250.00, in accordance with General Order No. 27, for the purpose of procuring recruits to be passed to the credit of the quota of the city of New- buryport." July 30th (Sunday). A union meeting of the several con- gregations of this city was held at the North Church this evening in aid of the suffering Union refugees who are being brought to Cairo, 111., in great numbers. The meeting was largely attended, and was addressed by Rev. E. Fulsom, Hospital Chaplain at Cairo, who was traveling under special orders from the Department Commander. The collection in money amounted to $70.80, and pledges from Charles H. Coffin of $100; the Prospect Street Sabbath School, by their superintendent, Capt. Charles M. Bailey, $100; individual pledges, $114, — making a total of $385.80. $450 FOR ONE YEAR VOLUNTEERS. The city of Newburyport will pay for volunteers to fill up its quota for the last call $250.00 State bounty 100 00 Government bounty 100 00 Making the sum of $450.00 Besides monthly pay $16 192 OO Clothing 42.00 Making the handsome sum of $684.00 Besides board of recruit, and State aid to his family for one year's service. ... Now is the time for those to enlist who are desirous to serve their country for one year, and to be well paid for their time. The bounties 180 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. offered alone exceed any ever paid for the term of one year, by any city or town in the State, and is better pay — including board and State aid — than can be earned by most of our best mechanics. Bounties $684.00 52 weeks' board, say at $3 per week 156.00 State aid to family of three U4:.00 Amounting for one year's service $984.00 I trust that the very liberal bounty here offered by the city, together with the Government and State bounties offered, will induce a sufficient number to come forward at once and fill the quota of the city. Geo. W. Jackman, Jr., Mayor. Newburyport, Aug. 1st, 1864. The amount of real estate assessed in 1864 $3,268,700 Of personal estate 3,425,000 Total $6,693,700 The rate of taxation was the same as in 1863, or $14 on the $1,000, and is as follows : Tax on real estate $45,761.80 Tax on personal estate 47,950.00 Pollsat$2 __5,056^ Total $98,767.80 The number of polls 2,528, which is 180 more than in 1863. By the above it will be seen that the real estate valuation is $220,000 more than last year, and the personal estate $30,000 in excess of last year, notwithstanding the exemption of a large amount of property in- vested in banks and manufacturing companies taxed by the State, and the very large number of national bonds held by our citizens, which are entirely free from taxation. August 5th. The City Cadets having served their hundred days, returned from Winter Island to-day. They marched through the principal streets of the city in the afternoon, accompanied by Hall's Band of Boston. A warm reception was given them at the City Hall, where a collation was pre- pared and a large company of friends assembled to bid them welcome. At the city council meeting this evening, the mayor laid before the board a return of those persons who have enlisted NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. 181 in the navy of the United States from this city since the 19th day of April, 1861, which was signed by the mayor and aldermen as required by law, and ordered to be transmitted to the adjutant-general of the Commonwealth. August 23d. The Citizens' Committee to obtain funds for the purchasing of recruits pubUshed the following in the Herald of this date: — LAST CALL TO PERSONS LIABLE TO THE DRAFT. Gentlemen who have so liberally subscribed to the fund for the procuring of substitutes on the last call of the President of the United States, are hereby notified that they will be called upon immediately for their subscription; and those who have not subscribed are liable to the draft, are notified that the quota of Newburyport can be filled if they will immediately call on the committee of their respective wards, and pay their twenty dollars.

October 3d (Monday). The re-enlisted men of Company A, 17th Massachusetts Infantry, who had returned to their homes on veteran furloughs, were received by their friends and former associates in arms this afternoon. Besides the veterans of the 17th, an invitation was extended to those of Company B, 182 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. 40th New York (Mozart) Regiment, and others, who had returned from active duty in the field, so that nearly one hundred soldiers were assembled. The City Hall, where they gathered, was tastefully deco- rated with flags and bunting, and crowded with a large con- course of citizens, who were anxious to testify their appre- ciation of the services of those whose patriotism had prompted them to renew their enlistment, and continue to battle for justice and right. From the City Hall they were accompanied by Hall's Brass Band of Boston to the Ocean House, where with invited guests they sat down to a sumptuous dinner. After all were seated, William E. Currier, Esq., who acted as chairman, welcomed the veterans in the following address: — . Veteran Soldiers of Company A, 17th Regiment Massachusetts Volunteers : Your early associates in arms, and a few of your numerous friends in this city, have assembled here to greet and welcome you on your tem- porary sojourn to the hearthstones of youthful days. We welcome you to the home of virtue, truth, and love, — the place of all the world the best, the spot more dear than all the rest. We are here to express our appreciation of your patriotism and valor, and to say to you, The people of the city honor you ; the State is proud to own you ; and the nation will reward you; for you have come from the battlefield with victories on your banners and glory on your shields. You have been engaged in a righteous cause, and for more than three years you have dwelt on the tented field, fighting your country's battles; you have made forced marches, and given battle to the enemy; and your victories at Whitehall, New Berne, Kinston, and Goldsboro have won for you imperishable honor. Three and a half years of war has brought the enemy to narrow limits; and the late victories of Sherman in the South, Sheridan in the valley of the Shenandoah, and Grant in Virginia, have circumscribed their boundaries, and tell you that the power of the enemy is fast fading away. Their forces concentrated at Richmond are now being met; and as God rules the armies and governs the destinies of men, the legions are to be scattered, their capital is to fall, and victory on victory ex- tinguish the rebellion, when peace shall again reign throughout the length and breadth of our glorious Union, and the Stars and Stripes wave over all the countrj-^ which we possessed in 1860. Again I say. Welcome! welcome to the banquet provided for you as a token of our love. NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. 183 Following the dinner, speeches were made by George J. L. Colby, Esq., Moody D. Cook, Lieut. Joseph W. Stevens, and George E. Van Moll, of the 26th New York Cavalry, Isaac Hale, Jr., and Lieut. John W. Ricker, of the 48th. The ceremonies of the day were concluded with a prome- nade concert and dance at the City Hall, where the brave sons and daughters enjoyed themselves until admonished by the flight of time to return to their homes. The following is a list of those who re-enlisted in Company A, 17th Massachusetts Infantry, credited to Newbury port, and who returned on veteran furlough : — Ahern, Thomas. Lewis, Andrew P. Austin, Albert F. Lynch, Daniel. Burke, John. Marshall, William W. Cook, Albert J. Marshall, James I. Dillingham, Aretus H. Purtell, Richard. Dunn, John. Sullivan, Michael. DwYER, Daniel J. Templeton, Andrew. Dwyer, Dennis. Tilton, Andrew J. Ford, Samuel J. Watson, Martin. Keeser, Samuel, Jr. Woodwell, Caleb S. Young, Elisha, Jr. October 28th. The mayor, as chairman of the committee to raise a fund for the providing of substitutes, issued the following notice to those who were dehnquent in the payment of their subscriptions : — All those persons who subscribed to the fund for the purpose of filling the last quota of men from this city for the army of the United States, that have not paid their subscription, are particularly called upon to pay the same immediately either to the committee, or directly to Daniel Granger, City Treasurer, who will receive and receipt for the same. It is very desirous that this money should be paid in, in order that the matter relating thereto may be settled up. There will be another call at once for more men, and arrangements should be made, as it now can be, to enlist men enough to cover the next call. Geo. W. Jackman, Jr., Chairman of Committee. October Zlst (Monday). At a special meeting of the city council, the following order was adopted : — 184 NEWBURYPORT m THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. That the mayor be and hereby is authorized to hire a sufficient sum of money to obtain one hundred and twenty-five recruits to put into the service of the United States and to be credited to this city, provided that the sum so raised shaU not exceed $125 for each and every man so recruited. This appropriation of $125 per man for recruits is all the city could legally appropriate under the laws of the Common- wealth, and it was expected that the balance necessary to increase the amount to $200 would be raised by subscription among the citizens. November 3d (Thursday). The City Cadets and citizens held a meeting this evening to take measures for a public reception of the Cushing Guards, of the 60th Massachusetts Infantry, on their return from Indianapolis, Ind. The fol- lowing were selected as a committee of arrangements: Capt. Luther Dame, George W. Knight, Jr., Robert G. Sargent, Charles H. Goodwin, Joseph H. Walton, Joseph A. Frothingham, Jr., Albert C. Titcomb, and Asa Merrill. November 7th (Monday). That the citizens might be in- formed regarding their subscription for the raising of recruits for this city, the mayor published the following in the Herald of this date: — There has been great inquiry of late to know what has become of the funds subscribed by our citizens for raising men to fill the quota of the city. I would say that $6,500 of the amount paid in was expended in procuring men, tliat $4,200 more remains in the treasurer's hands, and that there is about $1,500 now uncollected, which should be paid in at once, in order that more men may be enlisted towards filling the next quota. A further sum of $3,500 is necessary, together with the amount now in the bands of the treasurer, and the balance due upon the first subscription, to clear the city from another draft of 500,000 men which vnll undoubtedly be called for immediately. I trust that those citizens who have not paid their subscription will do so at once, and that a new subscription will be started to raise the amount neces- sary to fill our next quota. This is important, more so than on the last call, as the men can now be had at a reasonable price, but when the call is made it will be difficult to obtain men except at a high cost. Geo. W. Jackman, Jr., Mmjor. NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1864. 185 November 23d. The Gushing Guards, Capt. Stephen D. Gardiner, arrived home this morning, from Indianapohs, Ind., where, as Company H, 60th Massachusetts Infantry, they have been guarding rebel prisoners. November 24:th. Thanksgiving Day.

The mayor in his address referred to the rebeUion as follows : — The state of the country is such at this time, that it calls upon every loyal person to lend his aid and influence to the executive of the govern- ment for the suppression of this rebellion, and the restoration of those rights which our fathers fought for, and which they desired should be the inheritance of their children. Many of our sons have laid do^vn their lives for the love of their country, and their ashes now lie buried beneath the sod of what was once our beloved and sister States. There are about our streets those who show the evidence of their valor and courage, those who for a love of country periled their lives in its support. They are the ones! the wounded soldiers, more than any others, who should be respected and exalted for the part which they have taken in the suppres- sion of this war, and their endeavors to hold inviolate our national rights . To such let us extend a welcome hand, and render to them and to theirs such assistance as their circumstances require, — not that assistance which will make them paupers, or deprive them of their rights of suffrage, but by a fund created directly by the city council, and placed in the hands of the committee on relief, for their benefit. It is well known to all of you that we have at this time hundreds of our valuable citizens in the army and navj^, determined at all hazards to maintain the honor and integrity of our flag, and to sustain the powers that be, and to uphold the institutions of the nation and sustain the government. These men have and are still nobly representing our city, on the sea and in the field: their courage has been often tried and never found wanting, and by their valuable and patriotic services have won for themselves and for us a lasting honor, and have brought us under the greatest obligations to them. At the commencement of this rebellion Newbur3rport showed her devotion to those men who first took up their line of march to the battle" field, by appropriating from her treasury a sum of money for the relief of the families of those who so A'aliantly buckled on their armor, and she has so continued to do to the present time; and I trust that that liberal feeling will not be forgotten by the present city council. The ladies of our city, who are never behind in any good object or NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. 189 cause, have kindly lent their aid in raising funds, which have and are to be expended for the relief of sick and wounded soldiers. The Soldiers' Aid Society has done much for their relief in the way of necessary cloth- ing, medicines, luxuries, and other needful articles, which have been forwarded to them. The fair of the society last winter, and the one re- cently held, were crowned with that success which they deserved. The ladies composing the society, and others who have lent their aid towards so good and charitable an object, should, and I dare say will, receive the thanks and heartfelt gratitude of many of our sick and destitute soldiers, as well as those of our citizens. The recent presidential election held in November last, shows con- clusiveh^ that the people of the loyal States are determined that this war shall be continued until the people of every State now in revolt lay down their arms and ask for peace. This is the doctrine under the pres- ent circumstances that every loyal citizen, man, woman, and child, should adopt. January \&th (Monday).

DEATH OF PRESIDENT LINCOLN. April 16th (Sunday). This morning was received the sad intelligence of the death, by the hand of an assassin, of our noble-hearted President, Abraham Lincoln. Scarcely had the glad tidings of great joy — the fall of Richmond, the sur- render of Lee, and the end of the rebellion — been received, before the nation was called to mourn for the Great Chief Magistrate, who had fought a good fight, who had bravely and honestly fulfilled his mission, and who had seen the suc- cessful end of his work. Most of the churches of the city were draped in mourning, and there was not a pulpit from which there was not some allusion made to the great national bereavement. At the Whitefield Church the morning service was entirely devoted to the topic, and addresses were made by the pastor. Rev. Dr. Spalding, Rev. Dr. Withington of Newbury, and Professor Smythe of Andover Seminary. MEETING OF THE CITIZENS.

RESOLUTIONS BY THE CITY GOVERNMENT. At a meeting of the city council held Monday evening, the mayor and aldermen, by a rising vote, passed the follow- ing resolutions relating to the death of President Lincoln, presented by Alderman Currier: — Whereas, In the Providence of God our beloved and honored Presi- dent, the Chief Magistrate of the United States, departed this life April 15th by the hand of violence, therefore Resolved, That in the death of Abraham Lincoln the nation has lost, in its chief executive officer, a man of sterling integrity and worth, of strong and implicit faith in freedom and in the justness of our causej and also one who was an able statesman and patriot, which the events of the last few years have fully tested. Resolved, That in this hour of our national sorrow the greatness of our loss, if not expressed in words, is evinced by the unspoken and unutterable language of the heart; and tears of our loyal countrymen show how truly he was loved by them. Resolved, That we thank God for the noble work our loved and honored President was permitted to do for the nation, guiding it with great sagacity and skUl through the most difficult epoch of its existence. Resolved, That of the acts which our late President performed, none of them holds a higher place in our hearts than the Proclamation of Emancipation, which will give him a place in his country's fame beside that of the immortal Washington, and entitle him to the gratitude of all lovers of liberty. Resolved, That as a proper mark of respect the City Hall be draped in mourning for the period of thirty days, and that his honor the mayor order all public offices to be closed, and request the entire suspension of business on the part of the citizens, on the day of the funeral.

This part of the procession was particularly beautiful, and suggestive of the great struggle from which the country had at that time but just emerged, and the joy and happiness ex- pressed by all the people that peace had come and the coun- try again united.

Randolph Campbell At the conclusion of the exercises at the church, the city government, invited guests, and soldiers and sailors, were escorted to the City Hall, over the door of which was an arch bidding "Welcome, thrice welcome, every veteran here." The interior of the hall was beautifully decorated with flags, ever- greens, and mottoes. On entering, the veterans passed be- neath an evergreen arch, on which were the names of Grant, Sherman, and Farragut; and on the front of the gallery be- neath, "A laurel wreath to the victors now, and a place in NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. 201 our grateful hearts forever," Immediately over the door was suspended a large laurel wreath, under which every veteran walked in entering the hall. Opposite the entrance, over the rostrum, were three arches conjoined, inscribed, "Oiu* Great- est National Debt, — Gratitude to Our Defenders." Upon the walls tastefully arranged were the names of many battles in which the soldiers and the sailors from the city had partic- ipated. From the rostrum, on entering, the veterans were greeted by more than a hundred of the fairest ladies of the city, who had volunteered to wait upon the tables. Between seven and eight hundred participated in the dinner. Mayor George W. Jackman, Jr., presided, and welcomed the veterans as follows : — Gentlemen of the Armt and Navy here assembled: It becomes my very pleasant duty to welcome you home, and tender to you, one and all, the hospitalities of the city. We are aware of the many hardships and dangers through which you have passed during the last four years; and for myself, the city coimcU, and the citizens gen- erally, I tender you our warmest and most sincere regards for the honor which your valor and daring have so nobly won for yourselves, and for the city you represent. We can but feel proud of the men who have represented this city in the army and navy in the late rebellion, — men who left their pleasant homes for the love of their country, and to de- fend the noblest flag that ever floated over any nation, — an emblem of a nationality of which every American citizen throughout the land should be proud. The blow struck at that flag on Fort Sumter forever dishonored and blasted those traitors performing the act, and all others who have supported or given coimtenance to the act since. May they all meet the fate they so richly deserve I And, further, it has forever, I trust, wiped slavery — that cherished institution of the South — from the land, — the one thing which has caused more trouble to the free States, more anxiety to those who fostered it, and more expense to the government, than any other matter under the Constitution. It has been my privilege, whether for the best or not, to preside over the destiny of the city most of the time during the rebellion, and I have at all times and on all occasions done what I considered to be right and proper to maintain the honor of the city, in providing men and means to sustain the army and navy, and to support the Constitu- tion of the United States, and to sustain the administration. It has also been my aim at all times, and upon all occasions, to render all need- ful assistance to the families of those of our citizens who are or have been in the service fighting for us and ours, in order that they should 202 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. be as comfortably provided for as the circumstances of the case would admit; and I trust that I have done in this matter that which has met the approval of the soldiers and sailors, as well as our citizens. There has always been a willingness on the part of the city council to vote money and render other aid to enable me to furnish the requisite number of men to fill our quotas under the various calls of the President, between 1,200 and 1,300 men for the army and navy; and I feel proud to say, that on the breaking-up of the rebellion I had twenty-seven men ahead of all demands made upon us. I will take this occasion to say, that at home or abroad, whenever I have met any of you, I have ever been treated with that courtesy and kindness which my position required, which is ever characteristic of the true soldier and sailor; and for this mark of respect I tender you one and all here present, and to your comrades in arms who have not had the good fortune to arrive home (which I much regret, as I hoped to have the honor to meet all who are alive, on this occasion), my warmest regards and kindest feelings for the courteous treatment which I have ever received at your hands. Gentlemen, before closing my remarks, I wish to remind the company present that this bountiful repast was provided by the Ladies' Soldiers' Aid Society, who cannot be excelled in their success in promoting the comfort and welfare of the soldier, and in making home cheerful with their graces and smiles; and many of you, I dare say, have partaken of the sweets and comforts which they have from time to time forwarded to the battlefields and to the hospitals dur- ing the past four years. And now, gentlemen, they are. here to welcome you, and to wait upon you, with their smiUng and beautiful faces; and I know that your presence here gladdens their hearts, and they bid you welcome on your joyous return, praying that health, happiness, and a long life may be your reward for the troubles and toils through which you have passed. Rev. Daniel T. Fiske invoked a blessing. After the dinner the mayor introduced Philip K. Hills, Esq., as toast-master, who presented the following : — "The Day We Celebrate. Doubly dear to us as the anniversary of our nation's birth, and as the commencement of a new era in its history. The valor of our soldiers and the wisdom of our statesmen have made the country a unit, so to continue henceforth and forever." Responded to by Rev. J. C. White, Rector of St. Paul's Church. "The President op the United States." Responded to by George J. L. Colby, editor of the Newburyport Herald. "The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Worthy of our love and devotion for the noble ideas of human liberty NEWBTJRYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. 203 she has promulgated, and of the noble men who have rallied to their support and estabUshment." Responded to by Capt. Henry W. Moulton of the 32d Massachusetts Infantry. "The Orator of the Day. His fitly spoken words en- title him to confidence as a faithful sentinel on the poUtical outworks." Responded to by Dr. George B. Loring of Salem. "The Western Army. They won the first great victory of the war at Fort Donelson, nor were checked in their trium- phant march until they reached the sea, nor in their northern movement until the 'anaconda' had caught in its folds the last rebel corps in the Atlantic States. Their brilUant achieve- ments have no parallel in the history of war." Rev. Isaac S. Cushman, Chaplain of the 33d Massachusetts Infantry, responded. "The Home Guards. Though serving in the loyal States, they were ready and willing to share the dangers of the field whenever ordered." Responded to by Lieut. Joseph L. John- son of the Gushing Guards, 8th and 60th Regiment, M. V. M. "Our Escort, — the Veteran Artillery Association. They preserve the name of the oldest military corps in the Com- monwealth. The fame of its founders in the Revolution is safe in its present keeping." Capt. WilUam E. Currier of the veterans responded, "The Reader of the Declaration of Independence. He adorns the profession by which New England impresses herself upon the nation." Responded to by Mr. Albert Hale. "Our Martyred President and the Other Fallen Heroes in this Four Years' Conflict with Rebellion. By every heart let their memories be tenderly cherished." Drank standing and in silence. "The City of Newburyport. She has a record in all our wars for freedom, of which our posterity will be proud." Alderman Warren Currier responded. "The Ladies' Soldiers' Aid Society. Our quota of the heroines of the war. They have never failed in any call for assistance from camp, hospital, or field. In contemplating their labors 'we are lost in wonder, love, and praise.'" Re- 204 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. sponded to by Rev. Dr. Samuel J. Spalding, formerly Chaplain of the 48th Regiment Infantry, M. V. M. "The Army of the Gulf. The names of New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Donaldsonville, and Port Hudson are on their banners, and make for them an honorable record of which they may justly feel proud." Col. Eben F. Stone of the 48th Regiment Infantry, M. V. M., responded. "The Navy. To them belonged the pleasing duty of re- storing the Stars and Stripes in nearly every State. Upon the rivers and the sea they have acted worthy of the navies of 1776 and 1812." Henry Bartlet, Acting M. Mate U. S. N., and Ex-Alderman Thomas Huse responded, "The Gallant Defenders of the Capital in 1861. Called from their homes and peaceful pursuits at a moment's notice, they did the work of veterans, and for their prompt- ness and patriotism they will ever have the kindly remem- brance of their country." Responded to by Major Ben: Perley Poore, formerly Major of the 8th Regiment Infantry, M. V. M. "The Army of the Potomac. They met the first wave of insurrection, and continued through the battles of the Peninsula, Fredericksburg, Antietam, Gettysburg, and the Wilderness, till they rolled back the insurgent host to 'the last ditch,' and there buried treason too deep for a resurrec- tion in this age." Responded to by Capt. George W. Creasey of the 35th Massachusetts Infantry, and Lieut. Edwin F. Stover of the 40th New York Infantry (Mozart). "The Army of the Carolinas. They made the first in- vasion of the rebel States, and from Cape Hatteras to the fall of Charleston neither slumbered nor slept forgetful of their duty. We welcome home the protectors of the Constitution in the old North State, and the victors over treason in the cradle of the RebelHon." Responded to by Col. F. J. Coffin of the 8th Regiment Infantry, M. V. M., and Lieut. William J. Creasey of the 23d Regiment Massachusetts Infantry. "The Irish Brigade. The brave sons of foreign parent- age, who do not forget the land of their birth nor love for the land of their adoption.

The record of Newburyport during the war would certainly be incomplete if we fail to remember with gratitude the earn- est devotion and noble sacrifices of the women of our city who so generously contributed of their time, their labor, and their money to the comfort of the soldiers in the hospitals and camps, from the early days of the war to its ending in 1865. soldiers' aid society. The first organized society for preparing and sending ar- ticles to the soldiers in the field was known as the Soldiers' Aid Society. Early in the summer of 1861, Mrs. Samuel Pettingell, who resided on Bromfield Street, feeling a deep interest in the soldiers, suggested to some of her friends the plan of meeting frequently and working for their benefit. The plan was acceptable, and on Tuesday evening of each week the band of workers gathered at a house designated at the previous meeting. The gatherings were very popular, and continually increased in attendance and material results. Boxes and barrels containing bandages, lint, towels, delicacies, and other articles useful in hospitals, were sent in various directions to the sick and wounded, while stockings and ar- ticles of comfort were forwarded direct to the soldiers in the field. For months the good work was continued. soldiers' relief association. Aiigust 14th, 1862. Nearly five hundred ladies responded to a call for a meeting for the purpose of organizing an asso- 206 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. ciation to benefit the sick and wounded soldiers. For tem- porary organization Mrs. John Buntin was selected as chair- man, and Miss Caroline E. Perkins secretary. The following resolutions were adopted : — Resolved, That in view of the many sufferings and privations which our sick and wounded countrymen in the field are called upon to encounter^ we, the women of Newburyport, now pledge ourselves to form a society called the Soldiers' Relief Association, whose duty it shall be to forward articles for their comfort; and that the existence of this society shall terminate only with the day when peace is declared. Resolved, That we will do all in our power to make this organiza- tion a vigorous and successful one, sparing no pains, shrinking from no sacrifices of time and money; feeling as we earnestly do that our efforts can never thoroughly repay the offering of life and health which our fathers, sons, and brothers are so heartily making. Resolved, That while we will thus sacrifice all the time and means in our power, we will nerve our hearts to the higher and nobler sacrifice of those near to us for the nation's good; esteeming even our kindred less dear than that fatherland which has blessed us with imcounted privileges and a glorious history. A constitution was adopted, declaring the purpose of the association to be to assist the sick and wounded soldiers of the United States service; that any person could become a member by paying an annual tax of twenty-five cents, and that the officers consist of a President, a Treasurer, Secretary and Assistant Secretary, with an Executive Committee of two ladies from each ward in the city. The following officers were selected to serve for one year: — President, Mrs. John C, March. Vice-Presidents, Mrs. George W. Jackman, Jr., Mrs. Eben Hale, Mrs. Artemas B.

"In this last report of our association we wish to give an account to our friends, who have so liberally sustained us, of the way in which the large sums intrusted to us have been expended. In consequence of the sudden termination of the war, urgent calls from the hospitals ended in May last. Since that time we have sent but two boxes. The past year thirty- five boxes have been sent, as follows: To United States Gen- eral Hospital, Annapolis, Md., 13; Sanitary Commission, 8; Christian Commission, 6; Massachusetts Soldiers' Rehef Asso- ciation, Washington, D.C., 4; General Hospital, Beverly, N.J., 3; Beaufort, S.C, 1; Discharged Soldiers' Home, 1. "The whole number of boxes sent since the organization of the society, Aug. 14th, 1862, to July 28th, 1865, 159, containing the following articles: 3,222 cotton shirts, 1,589 flannel shirts, 2,522 woolen socks, 781 pairs drawers, 286 dressing-gowns, 2,700 bandages, 5,258 handkerchiefs, 3,160 towels, 562 pairs of slippers, 1,666 comfort bags, 1,120 packages farina and maizena, 1,359 boxes condensed milk, cocoa, and broma, 238 pounds sugar and tea, 1,031 bottles wine and jellies, 287 bottles cologne and bay water. Given to individual soldiers belong- ing to this city, 20 flannel shirts, 11 cotton shirts, 10 pairs drawers, 32 handkerchiefs and towels, 5 dressing-gowns, 3 pairs slippers, 3 comfort bags. "The women of this city, in common with all the patriotic women of the North, would have continued their labors, even if those labors had involved self-sacrifice and privations such as they never yet have known, so long as our noble soldiers were periling their lives for them on land and water. In clos- ing this report we wish to express our gratitude to those constant, untiring friends of our society who have so gener- ously sustained us. When the estimate is made, as we believe it will be, of the amount of supplies sent through the various agencies to the sick and wounded soldiers during the war, we think the record of Newburyport will show that the energy and self-sacrifice of her women is only equaled by the liberality of her patriotic men." For the Executive Committee, Agnes A. Aubin, Recording Secretary. Mrs. John Buntin, Treasurer, NEWBTJRYPORT m THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. 211 The money value of the articles sent to the hospitals by the noble women of our city during the war can hardly be estimated in dollars and cents, and assuredly not if we con- sider their earnest devotion and unquestioned loyalty to the cause for which they labored so long and so patiently. Adjutant-General Schouler, in his History of the Civil War in Massachusetts, in recounting the work of the Newburyport Soldiers' Relief Association, says, "At the close of the war they had furnished in articles and in money for the sick and wounded to the value of thirty thousand dollars."

BROWN OF THE CAPTURE OP THE SHIP SONORA BY THE ALABAMA, CAPTAIN SEMMES. In March, 1863, we were on the berth in New York with the ship Sonora of Newburyport, loading for Melbourne with a general cargo; finished loading and sailed; had forty-five passengers. On third day at sea, when about six hundred miles from New York, discovered four stowaways, all soldiers, deserters from some regiment or regiments that had been on the way "to the front," but changed their minds and became tolerable good sailors. We arrived in good time at our destined port. 214 NEWBTJRYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. After a time there, we took some cargo and two hundred and ninety Chinese passengers on board, and sailed for Hong Kong; made the passage in forty-six days, and landed all hands in good order. On arriving we found about twenty-five American ships at anchor, aU snug ^ith light masts and yards sent down, crews discharged, and having the appear- ance of a siege. On making inquiries we found that a strange steamer had put in her appearance in the China Seas, and the ship Contest, laden with a valuable cargo, had been captured, plundered, and burned, said steamer being the Akibama, and said to be a Confederate States priva- teer- therefore there had not been an American ship sail from Hong Kong for several weeks, and ours the first arrival for some time. As we were not on a voyage of discovery looking for privateers, and had a charter to proceed to Akyab, British India, and load rice for Europe, we remained in port ten days, and saUed for Akyab; touched at Singa- pore and landed one hundred Chinese passengers, among which were twenty girls. At Singapore we fell in with a fleet of fifteen to twenty American ships, aU in the same predicament as the Hong Kong fleet; paid off white crew, and shipped colored men; these men were part of the crew of Contest, who were landed at Batavia, and sent up to bmga- pore care of U. S. Consul. In five or six days we were up and at it again; saUed on through Malacca Straits toward Akyab. On the 26th of De- cember in 3° N , 103° E., at 6 a.m. a steamer was m sight, coming up astern, 'steering for us. Mter a short time I saw she was flying a blue British ensign, and had a large number of men on board, and I was qmte satisfied she was the Alabama, and we were to have a mormng call from the great brave (?) individual "Semmes," and expected a great circus was to be our day's entertainment, — and it certainly was so. When the steamer arrived quite near on our starboard beam some three or four boats were launched, filled with men and officers, and came alongside. We had made aU preparations to receive them. An officer came up, and addressed me from the raU,-I was on the house, - asked me ship's name, where from, where bound, and where she belonged. In a certain way he was answered. He said we were a pnze to the Con- federate steamer Alabama, pointing to her, and he was the pnze master. I asked for his name, and invited him to come on board. He came up. I went down in the cabin, and he foUowed me. We had quite an inter- view, and a goodly time was passed, he aU of the time advising me to go at once to "the steamer with my papers," etc. In the meantime a gang were loading their boats with provisions, with which we were well suppUed, and best quality, a great haul for them. Fourteen colored men and ten white boys were placed in one of our boats, and set adrift, with notice, or orders, to keep away from the steamer. Two colored men and my two officers - Isaac N. Colby, 1st officer, and Bradford Swap, 2d officer, both Newburypori) men -were then ordered into our quarter-boat and told to puU to the steamer, which they did A lot of these steamer people were preparing to set fire to the ship ; NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. 215 others, officers included, were plundering the ship's cabin; and with dis- putes among these fellows, as to whom such and such a thing belonged, each one having claimed they saw it first, the whole affair was of rather a ridiculous, undignified nature, it seeming to me that they could not have any discipline on board the steamer from which they had pounced down upon us; and had we been captured in the China Seas, or up through the Malacca Straits, by Chinese or Malay pirates, we might have ex- pected about the same treatment as we were getting from these repre- sentatives of the Southern Confederacy. I had been told by this fellow "Armstrong," the prize officer, that the ship would be burned; and more than three times did he tell me that I was getting myself in trouble by not going to the steamer at once. However, after all of our people had gone, and the torch all ready to apply to the kindlings, of tar, oil, etc., an officer told me to go with him in his boat to the steamer, which I did. We were but a few moments in the boat before arrivmg at the port side of the steamer, outside of three or four boats which were being discharged of the spoils which this crowd of two hundred and twenty-eight people had scooped so early in the morning. After getting on deck I noticed this chap had hauled down the British ensign and hoisted what they called the Confederate naval colors. To me the conditions of my surroundings looked like poor dis- cipline and an awful dirty vessel. Some ten or fifteen tons of coals were lying on deck amidships, men standing about in groups, and some lying about the decks. I did not walk aft, although I saw and recognized the bold (?) navigator Semmes near the mizzen-rigging, but passed for- ward on port side, looked at the gvms, bow-chaser, thence aft on star- board side, no one having spoken to me, only when a tall, shabbily dressed fellow spoke as we came alongside, and said, "Captain, you can come up." I merely answered by saying, "That is what I came here to do." My boat was then with the two white and two black men towing at his stem. Crossing the deck to port side well aft, a lanky, tall, cheaply dressed individual approached me, with an extended hand, and said, "Good- morning, Captain Brown." I did not give him my hand, — "the hand of Douglas is his own." He looked at me, probably feeUng msulted, and asked me if I would go down in his cabin. I said I would be pleased to do so. He went below, I followed; had a fine chance to kick him downstairs — but didn't. I was not invited to be seated. He asked my ship's name. I threw my papers on the table, abaft of which he stood, while I stood facing him. He gazed at me, put his glasses on, picked up the big envelope, which contained Register and Crew List, opened the Register, looked at me, sort of sizing me up, and said, "Sonora, she belongs to our enemy. I'll burn her!" I answered, "I don't care if you do. She is well insured in London." —"Where are you from?" "New York." — "Where?" — "New York, via Melbourne and Hong Kong." — "Where are you bound?" — "That is just what I would like to know. You say you will bum her, and she was all ready to be set 216 NEWBUBYPOKT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. fire to when I left her. How do I know what comes next?" The fel- low became a little enraged, took a good view of me, and then asked "where I was boimd?" — "To Akyab." Other such questions just as foolish were put to me, all answered in a most pleasing and polite manner. "Of what does your cargo consist?" I could only laugh at him, and answer, "Sand!" He moved from his position, and yelled, "I want no comments, sir! what is your cargo?" I tried to bristle up a little on a different tack, and not as pleasantly told him "I was master of a ship myself an hour since, and always knew how to treat my callers and my passengers;" no comments had been made but by himself, etc. He asked "if I had any money about me?" I then made up my mind he was either a confounded fool or a consummate scoundrel. We were all young fellows, and not really easily scared. An officer, his clerk, was all this time sitting at the table, no others in sight of us. I had a little more to say, and then awaited the result. He handed my papers to the clerk, and he left the cabin. Then this Semmes said to me, "Now, sir," — I took a seat, expecting my sentence, — "I'll give you your choice. You may remain with me eight or ten days, and at the end of that time I will set you down wherever I happen to be, or you may go in your boat!" — "What about my crew?" — "Those niggers are going in their boat!" — "My officers?" — "Are going with your niggers.'' I said, "If those men and officers, that belong to me, and I to them, are to be set adrift here in those boats, your ship is no place for me; my duty is not here. I will go with them, and whatever they may have to go through, I vriUingly will share it with them. They have served me faithfully, and I will never desert from them." He said, "You will have no charts." I answered, "I do not want any." — "No books or nautical instruments of any kind." I again said, "I do not want them; they will be of no use to me here in an open boat, and I will not leave my people under any circumstances. I know my duty." He left the cabin and went on deck. I looked about me, then went on deck, and made remarks with two different officers. They seemed to think they had conquered a fleet of men-of-war instead of one poor innocent merchant ship. It seemed to me like an eagle swooping down on a humming-bird. My boat was searched, and a quadrant belonging to the mate and other articles were passed up on the deck of this bold cruiser. I asked him if we could go now, as it was not safe towing along- side his craft. He said, "You have no water in your boat." I said, "Only that which leaked in." — "Well," he said, "you hang on me, and I'U tow you toward your ship and you can get some." She was then one mass of flames. I looked at him and said, "I never sent a man where I would not go myself, and that is no place for me." He then said, "You can clear out! You are the most impertinent man I have dealt with!" We cut his line, and dropped away from him. There we were, five in the boat ; — and it did seem to me as though I never was so far from home and friends. NEWBUEYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. 217 We landed on the Island of Penang, on the afternoon of December 31st. I gave the mates each one-third of the money I managed to save, about $100. Then it was each for himself. The Consul provided for the two sailors. The first mate got down to Singapore, and home from there in a Boston bark, Pearl. Second mate went up to Rangoon in a British ship; left her, and became a pilot; died there some three years afterward, aged twenty-four, and weighed three hundred and fifteen pounds, "the biggest man in Burmah." Consuls have no authority to assist captains; they do not come under the head of seamen. I pro- ceeded in steamer Chabuda, British, to Maulmain, then Rangoon, and thence to Calcutta, where I felt at home. The first white man I met was my brother; we had not met for seven years. I left Calcutta on the 22d day of January, 1864, by way of Madras, Point de Galle, Suez, across to Alexandria; at Cairo called out and inspected the Pjrramids; Malta, Gibraltar, and Southampton; only three hours at Southampton; then in the North German steamship Cimhria to New York; arrived in Newburyport on the afternoon of March 17th, 1864, having experienced a beautiful voyage, and met with some peculiar peoples. REPRESENTATIVE RECRUITS. Governor Andrew promulgated, July 1st, 1864, Circular No. 25, from the Provost-Marshal-General's office in relation to representative recruits, furnished by persons not fit for military duty, and not liable to draft, from age or other causes. Such a personal representative was quite different from the substi- tute furnished by the drafted man or one liable to military duty, and were furnished by patriotic citizens who were not themselves liable to military service : — Such a representative was furnished by Capt. Robert Couch, a ship master of this city. CONTRACT SURGEONS. TALBOT, CHARLES CARROLL. Bom at Newburyport, Aug. 28th, 1843. Son of Tristram C. and Sarah Ann Talbot.

The fort at the mouth of the Merrimack River on Sahs- bury Point was commenced in 1863, and completed the fol- lowing year. It was locally designated Fort Nichols, in honor of Capt. William Nichols of this city, who commanded the privateer Decatur in the War of 1812. This name, however, was not recognized by the War Department. The location of the fort was 700 feet from Badger's Rocks to embrasm-e No. 7, and 850 feet from embrasure No. 3 to what was at that time high-water mark on the ocean face. The range of gun No. 9 was a little west of north. Neither the scale of the fort nor that of the sections will apply to this cut, as the original sketch was considerably reduced to con- form to the size of the book. The greatest external diameter was from the angle of No. 1 gun to that of No. 7, which was 350 feet. The interior of the bombproof quarters was 90 feet by 12. The accompanying cut shows in plan and sections the completed fort, giving the positions of the guns, the maga- zines, and the bombproof quarters. It was originally intended to mount one 12-pounder siege gun and 9 rifled 32-pounders in the fort; but the armament on June 30th, 1866, and June 30th, 1867, was: one 12-pounder smooth-bore siege gun on a wooden carriage, mounted in barbette on the northeast face; three 8 in. smooth-bore guns, on iron casemate carriages, mounted at embrasures Nos. 1, 2, and 3; three 42-poimder rifled guns on wooden casemate carriages, mounted at em- brasures Nos. 4, 5, and 6. These guns commanded the nar- row entrance to the harbor between Salisbury Point and Plum Island. The embrasures are numbered by the figures 1 to 9. After the completion of the fort, its garrison con- sisted of a sergeant and a small number of men sent from other fortifications along the coast. 220 NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. SKETCH OF THE COMPANIES RECRUITED IN NEWBURY- PORT FOR THREE YEARS' SERVICE. FORTIETH REGIMENT NEW YORK INFANTRY (MOZART regiment). This regiment, to which four companies from Massa- chusetts — one each from Newburyport, Cambridge, Milford, and Lawrence — were attached, was organized at Yonkers, N.Y., June 27th, 1861, to serve for three years. Company B was organized in this city, and known as the National Guards. The regiment left New York July 4th, and was assigned to Gen. Phil Kearney's Brigade, which subsequently became a part of the Third Army Corps. It took part in the Peninsular campaign under General McClellan, and remained in the Army of the Potomac during its term of service. It sustained an unusual loss in battle, and in its number of killed stands next to the head in the hst of New York infantry regiments. Its aggregate membership was large, owing to transfers from other regiments. The casualties in the regiment were: killed and mortally wounded, 238; died of disease, accidents, etc., 127; died in Confederate prisons, 45; total, 410. The original members of the regiment were mustered out in July, 1864. The official list of battles in which the regiment bore an honorable part is as follows : — Yorktown, Va., Williamsburg, Va., Fair Oaks, Va., Glen- dale, Va., Malvern Hill, Va., Second Bull Run, Va., Chan- tilly, Va., Fredericksburg, Va., Chancellorsville, Va., Gettys- burg, Pa., Mine Run, Va., Wilderness, Va., Spottsylvania, Va., North Anna, Va., Tolopotomy, Va., Cold Harbor, Va., Petersburg, Va., Strawberry Plains, Va., Poplar Spring Church, Va., Deep Bottom, Va., Boydton Road, Va., Siege of Peters- burg, Va. NBWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. 221 SEVENTEENTH REGIMENT MASSACHUSETTS INFANTRY. This regiment was recruited at Camp Schonler, Lynnfield, during the summer of 1861, and with the exception of two companies was recruited in Essex County. Company A, known at the time of recruiting as the "City Greys," was from Newburyport. The regiment left the State August 23d for Baltimore, Md., forming part of the forces under General Dix. In the spring of 1862 it was transferred to New Berne, N.C., and remained in that department until the close of the war. It was mustered out of service July 11th, 1865. Total membership of regiment during its term of service: officers, 88; enlisted men, 1,658; aggregate, 1,746. The casualties were: killed and died of wounds, 19; died of disease or acci- dent, 87; died as prisoners, 51; total, 157. The following is a list of the engagements in which the regi- ment participated : — New Berne, N.C., Batchelder's Creek, N.C., Kinston, N.C. Washington, N.C, Whitehall, N.C, Wise's Fork, N.C, Golds- boro, N.C. THIRTY-FIFTH REGIMENT MASSACHUSETTS INFANTRY. The Thirty-fifth Regiment was organized at Lynnfield, and left the State Aug. 22d, 1862. Company B was recruited by Capt. Albert W. Bartlett, and left the State as color com- pany. After a short stay at Arlington Heights, it was assigned to the second brigade, second division. Ninth Army Corps, commanded by Gen. A. E. Burnside. It participated in the Maryland campaign under General McClellan, and after the battle of Fredericksburg in 1862 it went to Newport News, Va. From there it was sent to join General Burnside in the department of Ohio, and assigned to duty in the interior of Kentucky. In June, 1863, it joined General Grant's forces at Vicksburg, Miss., when after its surrender, July 4th, 1863, it followed General Johnston from the Big Black River to Jack- son, investing the city. Returning to Kentucky August 14th it moved with the Corps to Knoxville, Tenn., and was in the city during the siege by General Longstreet's forces. In April, 1864, 222 NEWBUEYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. the regiment returned with the Corps to the Army of the Potomac, taking part in the advance from the Wilderness to Petersburg under General Grant. During the siege it took an active part at the crater July 30th. After the surrender of General Lee at Appomattox, the regiment was sent to Alex- andria, Va., where it remained until the grand review at Washington, May 23d, 1865. On June 9th the regiment was mustered out of service, and arrived in Boston June 13th. The following is a list of the engagements in which the regi- ment participated : — South Mountain, Md., Antietam, Md., Fredericksburg, Ya., Vicksburg, Miss., Jackson, Miss., Campbell's Station, Tenn., Siege of Knoxville, Tenn., Spottsylvania, Va., North Anna River, Va., Cold Harbor, Va., Bethesda Church, Va., Siege of Petersburg, Va., Petersburg Mine, Va., Weldon Railroad, Va., Poplar Spring Church, Va., Jones House, Petersburg, Va., Fort Sedgwick, Va. Present at White Sulphur Springs, Va., Wilderness, Va., Hatcher's Run, Va., and Fort Mahone, Va. The total membership of the regiment during its term of service was 1,526 officers and enlisted men; 148 of the number were killed in action or died of wounds; 68 died of disease, etc., and 33 died in Confederate prisons. The total killed and wounded in the regiment was 539 men. Casualties in Company B (Newburyport Company). Original membership of company: officers and enlisted men, 99; killed or died of wounds, 11; died of disease, etc., 4; discharged for wounds, 15; transferred to V. R. Corps, 9; discharged for disability, 32; transferred to Regular Army, 1; resigned commissions, 2; deserted, 4; leaving 21 members who were discharged at the end of the war. In addition to the 138 men in the regiment credited to Newburyport, the city furnished eleven more men who were, with three exceptions, counted on the quota of Newburyport, making the aggregate of 149 officers and men belonging to this city who served in the regiment. From this mrniber, 15 were killed in action or died of wounds, 7 died of disease, etc., and 36 were wounded in action; 33 served until the end of the war. NEWBURYPORT IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. 223 NUMBER OF MEN FURNISHED BY NEWBURYPORT. The number of men called for from Newburyport during the war was twelve hundred and ninety-three (1,293). Those who so promptly responded to the first call of the President in April, 1861, and were mustered into the United States service for three months, and those who served for ninety and one hundred days, were not counted on the quota of the city, f The city sent to the field, not including those in the 40th New York Infantry (Mozart), thirteen hundred and sixty-three (1,363) men, which according to credits allowed by the Department was seventy (70) men more than she was required to furnish. To ascertain more correctly the number of men which the city actually furnished during the war, and for whom she should have received credit, there should be added to the 1,363 men credited to her, the 101 men in Company B, 40th New York Infantry (Mozart), whose credits were transferred by the War Department from New York to Massachusetts in 1863; also the 35 men enlisted after the city's quota for 1862 had been filled, and who by a ruling of the Provost-Marshal- General were not allowed to count on the next quota, and the 12 recruits sent to camp under the call for October 17th, 1863, in excess of the contingent called for and for whom no credits were given. We find the aggregate number of men fur- nished by the city to have been 1,511, which was an excess of 218 men over all demands made upon the city during the war. AMOUNT EXPENDED BY NEWBURYPORT. From the History of Massachusetts in the Civil War by Adjutant-General Schouler, we find that the amount of money appropriated and expended by the city on account of the war, exclusive of State Aid, was $123,817.89. In addition to this, $6,300.00 were voluntarily contributed by private citizens. The amount of money raised and expended by the city in the payment of State Aid to the families of volunteers during the four years of the war, and afterwards reimbursed by the Commonwealth, was as follows: In 1861, $6,322.45; in 1862, $25,000.00; in 1863, $35,988.25; in 1864, $27,000.00; in 1865, $16,000.00 ; total amount, $110,310.70. 224 NEWBUEYPOET IN THE CIVIL WAR, 1865. NEWSPAPER CORRESPONDENTS. From the departure of the first company from Newburyport in April, 1861, to the disbanding of the army in 1865, the Daily Herald printed communications from the various locations in both the Army and Navy in which the soldiers and sailors from Newburyport were situated. The earliest of these letters were from " Essex," who was with the 8th Mass. Infantry from Mas- sachusetts to Washington, and later in the Department of the Gulf. Letters signed "A," who was a member of Company A, 17th Mass. Infantry, were continuous from early in 1861 until 1864. Communications signed " J. D. P." and " E. L. D." were from graduates of the Herald office who served with the 23d Mass. Infantry in North Carolina. The following will show who the regular or occasional corre- spondents to the Herald were during the war period : — Essex. Capt. George Creasey, 8th and 30th Mass. Inft. " A ". Joseph Alley, Jr., Co.

The only representative of this class of noble, patriotic, and self-sacrificing women from our city during the war, was Mrs. Sarah E. Smith, daughter of Jeremiah and Abigail Downs, who devoted several months of faithful and earnest work in caring for the sick and wounded soldiers in the army hospitals. Mrs. Smith was born in 1831; died January 2d, 1873, buried on New Hill. VETERAN RESERVE CORPS. The organization of the Invalid or Veteran Reserve Corps was begun in April, 1863, by which it was proposed to retain the services for garrison, hospital and provost duty, of that class of deserving officers and men, who from wounds received in action or disease contracted in the service, were unfit for further duty in the field, and who would otherwise be dis- charged, but were still able to perform fight duty ; also to bring back for like purposes, those who had previously been discharged as unfit for active service, and not liable to draft. The Corps numbered June 1st, 1865, 762 commissioned officers, and 29,852 enlisted men, many of whom remained in the service long after the close of the war.

Supplementary Record OF THE "GUSHING GUARDS" IN THE WAR WITH SPAIN 1898-99 IN THE WAR WITH SPAIN. 601 THE WAR WITH SPAIN. 1898-99. The blowing-up of the battleship Maine, with the loss of 266 American sailors, in the harbor of Havana, Feb. 15th, 1898; the ultimatum of President McKinley to the Spanish government, in which he demanded the evacuation of Cuba by the Spanish forces, with their refusal to do so, — resulted in the declaration of war against Spain by the Congress of the United States, April 21st, 1898. This action was immediately followed with a call by President McKinley, dated April 23d^ for 125,000 volunteers for the army. Massachusetts was re- quested to furnish four regiments of infantry and three heavy batteries to serve for the period of two years, unless sooner discharged. In General Order dated April 28th, His Excellency Gov- ernor Wolcott designated the Eighth Regiment of Infantry^ M. V. M., as one of the four regiments privileged to volunteer under the President's call. That the response was prompt is evinced by the fact that on May 5th the entire regiment reported at the State camp-ground at South Framingham, and on the 11th was mustered into the United States service for the period designated. On the 16th of May the regiment left the State for Ohickamauga Park, Ga., where they remained until August 23d; from which date until November 10th it was at Lexington, Ky., when it changed to Americus, Ga., where it camped until January 10th, 1899, when it embarked on the transport Michigan at Savannah, Ga., for Matanzas, Cuba, arriving on the 13th. The regiment continued in Cuba until April 3d, when it left for Boston, where it was mustered out of the United States service, April 28th, 1899. Company A, of the 8th Reg. Mass. Vols., the Gushing Guards of this city, was mustered into the United States ser- vice with three officers and seventy-four men, May 11th, 1898. 502 SUPPLEMENTARY RECORDS, GUSHING GUARDS. Under the call of the President of May 25th, the regiment was recruited to the army standard of 106 men to a company. Company A received 35 recruits, making its aggregate mem- bership while in the service 112 officers and men. Of this number, 1 died of disease, 3 were discharged for disability, 1 dropped as a minor, 5 transferred, 1 dishonorably discharged, and 2 deserted. The Gushing Guards was one of the oldest military organ- izations in the State, having been organized in 1778 as the Newburyport Artillery Company. During the War of the Revolution it was sent to Newport, R.I., to re-enforce General Sullivan. It was one of the first companies to respond to the call of Governor Andrew in 1861, and was three times mustered into the United States service during the rebellion. Its early and continued service to the State, with its honor- able and patriotic record, ought to have preserved its or- ganization, and continued it as a part of the State Militia. It was disbanded by General Order No. 11, Adjutant-Gener- al's Office, March 12th, 1902. IN THE WAR WITH SPAIN. 503 ROSTER OF THE GUSHING GUARDS. Co. A, 8th Reg. Mass. Vol. Militia. U. S.

In compiling this index the author was confronted with the fact that the records of the city and state, as well as the army muster rolls revealed many discrepancies in names. In addition to this was the spelling of names differently by members of the same family and by the same individual. It has been the occasion of much careful research, and finally the author decided to make the Individual Records and Index give all names the correct spelling, ascertained up to the time of publishing, and to these the reader is respectfully referred when desiring to find the name of any relative or friend recorded in the book.
