HulPs Surrender at Detroit-Ihe Last
of I'ecumseh. 81

The Western Reserve Historical
Society has printed the personal recol
lections of General George Sanderson,
of Lancaster, Chic, who died in that
place on the 26th of August last, in
the sevcnty-hfth year of his age
, General Sanderson was native oi
Pennsylvania, but with his parents
removed to Lancaster in 1900, where
he resided all his life. He published
the Independent Times at Lancaster in
1910, and on the breaking out of the
war of 1912, organized a company OF
volunteers for Colonel Lewis Cass
regiment. General-then Captain
Sanderson was at the surrender of De
troit, with his regiment, and with
Harrison at the river Thames, as q
Captain in the regular army. We
make the following extracts from his
recollections in regard to two of the
most interesting events of the war:
HULL's SURRENDER.
1t was late in May, 1912, when
General Hull arrived at our camp at
Dayton, and Governor Meigs relin-
uuished command. A few days after
we were on the march for Detroit
The road was a difficult one to travel,
but by the aid of efficient guides, and
the protection of Divine Providence
we arrived safely at our destination,
after much suffering and many stop
pages on the way. For nearly two
months after our arrival, we engaged
in the performance of no extraordi-
nary military duty, the general rou-
tine of camp life being the order
from day to day. In August the
British and Indians arrived, and soon
after the scene occurred which pro
duced such indignation at the time,
and about which histories do not
agree. My company, belonging to
Cass's regiment, was surrendered with
all the Ohio volunteers, Miller's regu:
lars, and large force of Militia. L
shall never forget the scenes which
then transpired. My opinion of Gen
eral Hul's conduct, formed at the
time, (and events since have not
changed it) was, that General Hull
was an imbecile-not trat r. or a
a coward, but an imbecile caused by
the excessive use of ardent spirits -
He was a constant, heavy drinker.-
On the day before the surrender, his
son, Captain Abraham F Hull, came
among my men in beastly state of
On the day of the sur
render I saw General Hull frequently.
His face about the chin and mouth
was covered with tobacco juice, and |
thought, in common with other Off
GERS, that the General was under the |!
influence of liquor. His personal ap-
pearance indicated that he had been
drinking. The General was surround
ed in camp, with a military family, |
the members of which were fond of
high living, wines, liquors, etc.
know us poor volunteers wondered
how they could keep such luXuries,

PRESIDENT DAVIS RECEP.
THDN LAST EVENING.
4 LARG Z TU r NOU T.
Serenade and Speech.

The announcement made yesterday mora-
iog that Hon. jefferson Davis would hold a
pabic reception at Ceipp's Hotel last even
Ind drew 10 that locality, at the appointed
b6ar, large portion of the best people in
selma The parlor of the hotel was jamm ed
hr several hours by those who had gone
here to DO honor to the man who was our
bOsen leader in our terrible civil war. All
messed forward to take our loved chieftain
n the hand, a great number of whom were
armost elegant ladies. Mr.. Davis appear
Ito be in fine health, and much pleased TO
meet his people.
There was but one sentiment manifested
5T all. and that was of affection and esteem
6r the man who guided the infant nation in
her brief but brilliant career. Every one
seemed TO feel better at meeting Mr.. Davis
aud testitying to him their feelings.
About half past ten, Mr.. Davis was ser
aaded by the brass band, accompanied by
lirge numbers of our citizens. Mr.. Davis
appeared ON the veranda and, in a short
speech, touched the hearts of all by the kind
and atiectionate manner in which he spoke
Of Alabama, the Southern people and the
'l0St cause" He said that he could not adj
lress them as fellow citizens, as he was dis
anehised by every count in the disfran-
thsng act. We cannot attempt a report of
he speech, but it was such rs we could have
expected from the great and good man so
lear 10 the people of the South. All bitter
less or feeling of any kind engendered by
he war OF in the conduct thereof appeared
o be buried in the tender regard that was
sIt and manifested for our late chieftain.
Ar Davis in closing his remarks, expressed
be hope that he would yet live to see the
9yereignty of the States indicated. We
GpresS. in behalf of the people of Ala
ANA, the hope that he may not only live to
lat day, but that in that hour he may be
land representing the people who love
I'm 50 well.
About an hour after Mr.. Davis had retir-
1. the colored string band went upon the
nranda of the hotel and discoursed some
Reet and most appropriate music.
The night was an eventful one for Selma,
ndits occurrences show, beyond question,
lat the Hon. Jefferson Davis yet lives in
le hearts of his people.
