A Relic Returned,


While strolling over the battlefield Just be-
fore dark after the first days fight in the Will
derness. May 5. 1864. c. w. Owen, one of the
publishers Of The Courier. picked up Testa-
ment. which has since been in his possession
and which he values very highly. il being the
only article he succeeded in saving when he
was taken prisoner three days later, on the 9th
of May. On the fy-leaf of the Testament was
written the following: "Tilson T. Whiteomb,
Co. A, 18th Maine Vols, resident of Concord,
State of Maine" 1t also gave the dsfe of his
enlistment as July 10. 1852 and the Testament
was presented to him at Jersey City by the
New York Bible Society. Aug. 90. 1862.
Having long entertained desire TO fad out
something of the history of the original owner
Of the Testament, while in Washington in Sep
tember Mr.. Owen visited The NATIONAL
TRIBUNE Office and had an item inserted ia
that paper, which circulates largely among old
soldiers inquiring about eomrade Whitcomb
and agreeing to return the Testament to him or
his family if found. In reply TO this notice Mr.
Owen received on Monday the following letter,
which brought wildly to mind sad rscollec-
tions Of the terrible realities of war times:
ASsoS. Me, Dec. g. 1892
Mr. O. w. O,ren Cold,cuier Mich.
DEAR SIR: The Testament you have In your
possession belonged to my father. soldier who
knew him saw your advertisements in The Ma
TIoNAL TRIBUNE and has taken the pains to find
the family of which am all that is left. was q
few months old when father enlisted. and ne
never lived to get home / cannot remember him.
Mother has talked with me about him. and have
his letters written home from the bsttefi-Ids.
Mother died when was most IL years old. Father
WAS taken prisoner in Of the battles around
Richmond. and was literally starved TO death.
would be very much pleased to have the TesiaDens
to keep with my other relies. sincerely hope all
soldiers orphans have not been compelled to suffer
as have. have taken care of myself since ioss
nv mother and the hard work and deprivations
have ruined my health. and now the In grippe has
ruined my husbands. too. am very much inter-
ested In all that pertains to soldiers and especially
their widows and orphans. Dir. Berry, the soldier
who brought me the notice. was entire stranger,
but he knew my father we'll. so feel though
had found old friend.
Yours, respectfully, Hrs q. w. DEAN
