THE OEF1CEhSs
The management of the two, compa-
MES has always been in good hands,
and it might be of interest to mention
here the standing of the officers now
in charge.
Lieut.. Frank D. Aiken, the senior
officer of the battalion, and in COM
mand of the First Division, has been
In military life for fifteen years, hav-
ing come from the ranks as a private,
sergeant and corporal in the Mcintosh
Light Dragons of Darien, a cavalry
troop, He was elected second then
first lieutenant of the Brunswick
Light Horse Guards, and was in COM
mand of that troop until it was trans
ferred to the naval arm of the service.
To him belongs the honor of carrying
out the idea of Lieut.. C. B. Satterlee,
Third u. S, Artillery, then assistant
adjutant general of Georgia, and with
the assistance, IN the house of repre-
sentatiyes of the state, of Hon. M. l..
Mershon, then member from Glynn,
of the organization of state naval
reserve. Besides being an officer In
the state forces, Mr.. Aiken is vice.
president of the Brunswick Savings
and Trust company, of this city, and
county treasurer. which positions he
fills with great credit.
J Lieut.. James S. Wright, command
The Brunswick times. [volume] (Brunswick, Ga.) 188?-1900, 1897-07-18

ing the Torpedo Division, has also q
military record of ten years. He was
serving for one year as its quarter
master, and was then promoted to
quartermaster of the regiment, with
the rank of captain on Col. Gordon's
staff, which office he filled until his
election to the command of this divis-
ION. To him is due the credit for
bringing 1t up to the present standard
of efficiency. Mr.. Wright is one of
the leading business men of the city,
beng in the insurance business, as
we'll as chairman of the board of coun-
ty commissioners.
Lieut.. G. A. Taylor, of the Torpedo
Division, is also an able officer, having
been graduate at the Military and Ag-
ricultural college, MilledgeYille. He
was a member of the Horse Guards,
and one of the charter members of the
First Division and was very materially
instrumental in the organization of
the Torpedo Division, of which he was
elected executive officer. Mr.. Taylor
is broker, and one of the younger
business men of the city.
Lieut.. G. L. Elliot, executive officer
of the First Division, needs no intro
duction, as any one IN the military
service of the state knows him as an
able and enthusiastic officer, always
ready to do anything for the interest
of his command. He was on the roll
of the Guards in May, 1888, and, at
the organization of the company, was
elected color ser geant, which office he
filled.wth credit until the organlza-
ton of the Naval Militia, when he was
elected junior ensign; from this he
was promoted to lieutenant junior
grade last February, which place he
now holds. Mr.. Elliot has been a mer-
chant in this city for fifteen years, but
ls now cashier and bookkeeper at the
Oglethorpe hotel.
EnsIgns j. S. M. Symons and FL. F.
du BignOn. of the First Division, are
both able officcers, and were members
of the Horse Guards in their palmy
days under Capt. Jordan s. Thomas.
Mr.. Symons represents the Standard

wick, in tow of the fast cruiser Column
bia, and is now lying in st. Simon
Sound, in company with the VIII
mington.
Since the arrival of the Passalc,
July 81, 1896. much work has been
done by the members of the two COM
panies to put her and her boats III
good trim, at an expense borne en-
tlrely by the two companies, and she
is now in good shape, not quite one OF
the White Squadron, but a ship that
Georgia's Navy may feel proud of.
Besides the members of the Naval
Militia, there are constantly on duty on
the Passaic, two regular men of the
U. S. Navy, as seamen, and one fire.
man of the second class,
The Passaic is 2O4 feet long, 46 feet
wide, and II feet. inches deep. She
has $40 horse power, and 1875 tons,
and when built after plans by Eric
sson in 1862, cost 1926, 900. Her arma-
ment consists of two l5-inch guns.
The Naval Militia is in posses sion
of book, "The FIr+t Cruise of the
Passaic," published by Harper Bros,
and written by the executive officer of
the ship at the time, now Rear Ad-
mlral J. n. Miller, commanding the
North Atlantic Squadron.
The Passaic sailed from New York
on this memorable cruise, November
26, 1852. She encountered gale after
gale, and six days from port. the cry
of ''the ships afire" rang out. The
crew was Immediately piped to fire
quarters, and after much labor, the fire
was put out. Then. again, leak was
discovered, and all hands manned the
pumps, until 1t was repaired after
days and nights of hard labor. Dur
ing this trip, the good ship State of
Georgia was convoy, and in that
name there was protecting spell.
On this trip, the Passaic weathered
the gale in which the original Monl-
tor was lost.
The Passaic put into Beaufort, N.
