New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1895-04-17

The legislature is passing a bill to re-
move the Birch Coulee battle monument
over in Renvihe county, from its present
location, mile and a half away, to the
site of the battle, and this is right. The
bill further provides for erasing from
the monument the name of Capt. Grant,
as commander of the battle, and substi-
tuting the name of Major Brown, and
this we believe to be wrong. It appears
from all the evidence to be found, from
living witnesses and historical documents
and records of the rark of the claimants
that it is uncertain who was in command
and in order that no injustice be done
anyone, why not omit both names in
such connection, and place each on the
monument among the other participants,
where possibly the honor would be as
high as if recorded as the commander of
the affair, considering he was not COM
petent to discover the presence Of half
a thousand Indians and pitched his camp
where favorable attack could be and
was made. It looks very much as if
Brown was officially in command, and
neither entitled to much credit as Indian
fighters. Marshall Messenger.
