memorable scene was enacted in Odd
Fellows Temple at Cincinnati when the
survivors Of three Ohio regiments received
back their old battlefiaes. About two
years ago Col. Henry Wagner, while in
Washington, ID. c., discovered among lot
OF Confederate flags stored I'm the War De-
partment number of Union regimenta
and National flags. These had belonged to
the 2fst, 5sth, and Goth Ohio, nd had been
lost IN battle. By special act of Congress
these flags were secured TO the survivors.
Gen. Basil Duke. who was with the rebel
General Morgan, was m ster of ceremonies
on the restoration of the flags. George W.
Barrier received the flag of the Goth Ohio,
which had been captured at Harper's Ferry,
and RESPONDED with feeling speech. Capt
f. j. Braumels was given the custody of
the regimental flag of the SCI h Ohio, which
was captured ct Chickas.w Bayou, Dec.
20, 1862. Over 200 men of the regiment were
either killed or wounded in that battle.
The National flag as well as the regimental
colOrs were lost by the 2lst Ohio at SnOd-
gras- Hill. Richard Mcbride, of Xenia on
behalf OF the regiment, received the coIors.
