Res ilyei, By The members Of Co. "F''

/. That while we deeply d,plore civil
war and the destruction of lives and
property that our love for our country
has rather increased than diminished by
the sacrifices that we have made in her
service and that we believe that our
personal liberties and political and re-
llgious rights are involved in the preser-
walton OF our Government and that we
most heartily endorse the present admin
istration and the conscriptl law and that
We, VINO have been in the service nearly
" years want no other peace save tie
restoration of the Union as il was es,ab-
lished by the blood Of our forerathers.
H. That the war which we are now
waging has its foundation in the p%riuci-
pies OF justice, of humanity, and is ole
in which the sacred rights of sell-goy,rn
menL and the perpetuity of democratic
principles are involved.
Ill. That we hereby proclaim TO the
world our undying love for the Union Of
the States, and at the same time our etei-
nal hatred and adherence of traitor,
whether found in arms against the
Government, or in the disloyal conven-
lions and legislatures OF tue North, and
that we denOunce with loathing and con
tempt all those Efforts at home, who, in
their correspondence with soldiers in the
Held or else where, have been endeavoring
by their many i-nsinuations and articles
to corrupt their loyalty and persuade
them 10 desert their COuntry's honor in
thus trying hour thai those who would
luduce the soldier to seek his home with
perjury and cowardice stamped upon his
conscience, are not his friends, but his
aud his cOuntry's enemies, and deserve
, AT his hands exposure and shame that
we appeal TO our fathers, brothers, and
friends at home, to discOuutenauce, Op-
pose and put down those infamous
wretches who, while breathing tle tree
air OF Indiana, ~sympathize with the re-
bellIOn and denUunce the Government
and uer actions, which has given then
peace aud security with liberty from
their infancy.
". That Company 4, 10th. Regiment
OF Indiana Volunteers, will follow the old
nag, which has been Teverenced by every
nation and honOred in every port, which
has been sustained successfully through
all Of our wars, until this rebellion il
put down and cur cherished Union again
restored.
