In this gathering OF veterans no name
is more spoken and no memory is dearel
than that OF Joseph Thoburn, Colonel oil
tile First West Virginia, who fell on the
field OF Cedar Greek, October 10, 1854,
brayely commanding a division. He won
his fame and rank BY aCrviCe as effective
as It was rneritortous. When he fell the
Union lost one Of the bravest Of itH cham
plonB, and West Virginia one Of the no.
blest OF her sons.
Joseph Thoburn came Of that sturdy
Irish stock whose blood was shed on ev.
cry battle field OF the Civil War,
Born in 1926, at Mullask, county
Antrim, before he was q year
old, his family emigrated TO Canada, In
another year the family came to Belmont
county and settled near st. Olairsville.
When q young man Joseph Thoburn
taught school, then read medicine, and
later began the practice Of his profession
at Brownsville, Pa. In 1850 DR., Thoburn
became an assistant physician In the Ohio
LunatiC Asylum. Being ousted by politi.
cal influence from that position in 1856,
he came to Wheeling, where he pursued
the practice Of his proieasion and estab.
lished himself In the affections Of the PEG.
Pile. From here he went into the war as
surgeon Of Col. B. 4. Kelley's First yir.
ginia regiment In the three months ser.
vice. He was In the engagement at Phi.
lippi, and waited upon Col. Kelley after
that officer was wounded. Upon the 70.
organization OF the First Virginia Dr..
Thoburn was made colonel rs

and In the higher commands
which deyolved upon him, no achieved q
brilliant fame In the hard fighting in the
Valley Of Virginia. He was not quite
forty years OF age when he gave his lie
to his adopted country. The news OF
Col. Thoburn's death touched The heart Of
Wheeling. The 1NTEttieEScEa Of 0cto.

feel q peculiar pride In tho distinction 10
which Col. Thoburn had attained. He

regiment Of loyal troops recruited south
Of Mason and Dixon's line. He was com,

given command OF all the troops in Viz,
ginia, Two days alter he received his
Commission Dol. Kelley loft Wheeling for
Grafton, which place was held by Con.
federste force under Col. PortsTaeld,
This force retreated to Philippi, and after
a forced night march in q dranGhing rain,
Col. Kelley attacked the enemy at Philippi
on the morning Of June 8. The Rebels
we're surprised and completely routed.
Col. Kelly was sevevely, and 1t was at
first thought MORALLY, wounded, For his
efficient conduct OF the fight and his gal.
lantry In action, Col. Kelley was highly
complimented by Gen. Mcclellan and
Brigadier-GenerRI Morris, and he was
made Brigadlsr.Genersl by the Presi-
dent, and given command OF the forces in
this section with headquarters at Grafton,
an important position, rs 1t covered the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad. On October
81, Gen. Kelley moved on the Oonied-
crates at Romney, In obedience to orders,
aud after q sharp engagement routed
them. Ha was relieved, on account Of Ill
health from exposure and the wound re-
Csived at Philippi, on January 10, 1909.
Probably no officer III the history Of the
rebellion saw mora real service in so short
time. In December OF the same year
he was assigned to q command
in the Middle Division, with heatq1Gr.
tsrs at Harper's Ferry. Shortly al
ter the Department Of West
Virginia was formed and he was placed In
command. During his command Of this
department his troops were almost con.
stsntly in action, and several important
engagements were fought and won. For
his services at Cumberland and New
Greek, no was commissioned maior'gen'
