To THE EDITOR: Among the various claims
for longest service, youngest soldier, etc, |
should like to have the question settled of
who was the youngest man who actually was
commissioned Brigadier- General / have seen
that honor attributed to Gen. Eli H. Murray,
now Governor of Utah Territory; to Gen. 4.
II. Bowen, now of Hastings, Neb., and to Gen.
George G. Rodgers. President of the Board of
Pension Appeals
!, and no doubt many othcr comrades, would
be very glad if each one of the men mentioned
would "shOw up" his record. 1t would, very
likely, bring to the front others of whom We have
never heard in that connection. / should also
be pleased to hear from others with claims as
to the youngest man who held commissions
down to the rank of Captain. l hope that this
may serve to call out some of the boy Generals,

THE 10TH ILL.
Comrade of that Regiment Claims II Did Som
Good Fighting.

To THE EDITOR: OF course it is expected
that comrades when writing of the marches
and battles of the late war are liable to more
or less inaccuracies, but &C. Co." in his article
on the 10th ILL.,, caps the climax. Why, Char
ley, hope you are not suffering from any men,
tai arrangement that would cause you to make
such assertions as the following: The 10th
Ill. was one of the regiments that can boast of
never having fair, square, stand-up-and-shoot
fight, as regiment, for two hours during the
entire war, with the exception of one day in
the Corintb campai gn in 1862" Why, Comrade
Grundy, have distinct recollection of sew
eral battles in which took part with our glori-
Gus old 10th ILL.,, and in each of which the 10th
stood up and delivered its fire square in the
face of the rebels and received theirs in return,
and in each of which the 10th ILL., lost more or
less killed or wounded, viz: New Madrid, Mo-;
at swamp near Pennington, Miss; near Cor
inth, Miss; Columbia, Tenn; Nashville, Tenn,
(Morgan's raid; Chickamauga Hills, Ga. !;
Rocky Face Ridge, Ga; Resaca, Ga; Rome
Ga; Dallas, Ga; Kenesaw, Ga Peach Tree
Creek, Ga; Atlanta, Ga; Savannah, Ga; Sake
hachie, S. c.; River Bridge and South Edisto,
S. c., and others, and last, but not least, Ben
tonvile n. c., when, on the evening Of March
81, 1865, the old 10th lost 81 men killed and
wounded inside of 80 minutes, after we had
penetrated the rebel line and was near the
bridge over Mill Creek, which was their only
line of retreat, and which we intended to burn,
but were repulsed by Hardee's whole corps.
Now, Charlie, if recollect right, you were
shot out at Atlanta before we started on the
big raid, and as We never saw any of the
wounded boys after that till we got to Colds
borough, about the 9th Of March, 1865, you
could not have joined the regiment Feb. l, go,
as we were hundreds of miles from communica-
ton on that date. No, comrade, you were one
of our best soldiers, and l saw you shot out of
the ranks at Atlanta; but you are certainly mis-
taken if you think the old 10th claims any such
distinction as you describe in your article in

A CREDULOUS COMRADE.
He Saw Everything that Took Place During
the War,


To THE EDITOR: l have been a constant
reader Of THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE from the
first. Previous to that time l was confirmed
invalid, but after | read the first number be-
gan to rally and now the flush of health per-
ambulates through my entire system. l have
read with great interest the various articles IN
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE, and | have never
seen anything published that did not fully
and cordially subscribe to. Having been in all
the various battles and skirmishes of the late
war, am ready to back up the different state
ments OF the several comrades as to the positions
of the different commands in action, and also am
prepared to state exactly when and how and
who planted the colors on all the Court-h houses
and ramparts. Now right here let me say that
whatever has been written in regard to flag
raising and heroic charges by these comrades in
the past is all true. Now that have made this
statement, ! do hope that the controversy will
cease and peace reign throughout our land. L
don't know when have read anything so life
like and truthful as the sketch of the battle OF
"Saleratus Palms." by Comrade "Cui Bono"
of the 10th Oshkosh. With the exceptions of
n slight error or two, Bono's account of that
fierce struggle is good. Comrade Bono, you may
not recall instantly who the writer of this
article may be- But L will bring back your
memory on the dOuble-quck so that you VIII
recognize me at once, and pardon me for correct
ing slightly the otherwise truthful and thrilling
account of the turning battle of the war. In
his account Bono says: On the morning of the
29th of February, the bugler of the 10th sent
forth blast across the valley, and it was hurled
detiantly back by the voices of thousand
mules" Allow me to say that there were only
9S5 mules instead of LOCO. Further on Bono
says: 1--WE established our line of battle facing
the front, our right resting on Widder Win
coops hem house." Permit me say that 1t was
an ice-house instead of hen-house. am sure
l am right for / refer to my diary of that date.
With these exceptions the article is painfully
correct Bono says he should be happy to hear
from any of his old comrades that escaped the
carnage. Bono, old boy, shake! l will now
unvail myself to you. Have you forgotten the
comrade that during the hottest part OF the con-
fict, when both sides were struggling to get
back, | say have you forgotten the one that
assisted you to the rear after you had been
severely wounded by falling from a hen-roost?
All, Bono, the most prominent of us are pass
ing away, but posterity will lovingly inscribe
your name and mine on the roll of honor as
the prescrvers of the Nation, and our childrens
children will proudly say, my father fit at
Saeratus Plains."-JoHN SMITH, Brevet
