and We passed through the fiery and
bloody ordeal of July 80, 1866, and
stood face to face with the men whom
the Illinois collector OF the port Oiyev
Orleans subsequently rewarded by pO.
sitions in the Customhouse. We OF
the most Of us, ask no reward; our bat

none the less to the President than to

true and trusted, bearing in their bodies
the proofs of their devotion, to say to
him how basely he has been deceived
