DESERVES PENsIoN.-Lewis Hyde
enlisted from this town when mere boy
and Joined the lst Vt. cavalry. He was
with his regiment until the war ended
and participated in nearly all the battles
and hardships. During the battle of
the Wilderness be was shot through the
shoulder, and severely wounded; but
before his wound fairly healed he found
his regiment and did duty. At the
time of one of our cavalry raids near
Richmond. Lewis lost his horse and was
left in the woods very near the enemies
line. In wandering around to find our
| troops he went into rebel encampment
just at daylight, and was accosted and
asked who he was and where he belong
ed. He gave his name and his regiment,
and was made aware Of the character Of
the force before him when he was asked
to surrender. He made answer to the
rebel band in the phrase then common,
Il don't see it." and at the same time
darted into the woods amid shower of
bullets. He succeeded in keeping out
of the way of pursuers during the day,
and finally reached our camp in safety.
At the close Of the war he came home
with his health broken down, and has
suffered from that day until this, both
from his wound and impaired health
The efforts to secure a pension have as
yet proved unavailing. Had the boy
soldier been less valiant and kept in the
hospital where he belonged, he would
have been discharged an invalid, and re-
ceived a pension. But he chose to do
duty and was discharged from the saddle,
and for that reason it is said that
he cannot receive his pension.
He has not seen a well day since his
return, but has been obliged from pecu.
