Soon after its organization young
Grout's regiment was ordered to

October, 1861, he lost his life at the
conflict of Balls Bluff, after display

count of the conflict: THE coolness,
self-possession and courage of Lieut..

day was lost, and they were forced to
retreat to the river, he seemed to be

Worcester, and the young soldier and
Mr.. Washburn's son were intimate
