Mississippi In the Civil War.

Mississippi In the Civil war
Col. NJ. D. L. Stephens writes a. fol-
lows to the editor Of this department:
II SEQ in your list Of Mississippi generals
in the civil war that you omit the name OF
General John c. Fizer, who was made .
brigadier-general before the close Of the
war. He was lieutenant-colone Of the Sew
snteenth Mississippi under Colonel Holder.
He lost an arm at Knoxville.
II am so much pleased and interested in
your notes Of the war, and its actors, ! in
sist that you shall write . history Of the
part taken by our State in the great con-
fiict. have in mind the doings Of the Sew
enteenth Mississippi the first year, and the
Thirty first Mississippi for the three last
years. We should prepare and preserve
a. far as possible a history Of our State In
the great struggle. All tho actors will soon
be gone and many records and incidents
will be forever lost" ...-,.a
The list of ''Field Officers Of the Con.
federate States Army" compiled by the
war records office at Washington places
~. G. Fizer" as lieutenant-colonel of the
Seventeenth Mississippi We have no
doubt Colonel Stephens il correct - to
his promotion. A good many promo
tions were made in the last few months
of the war, and officers had verbal no.
tice thereof, but did not receive their
commissions, and if their commissions
were recorded at Richmond, the record
may not have been among the captured
archives. -
We hope Colonel Stephens will write
up sketches of the Seventeenth and
Thirty-frst regiments; and we suggest
that all survivors Of Mississippi COM
mands write up their recollections, CIV
ing such incidents of Confederate army
life as will set forth the valor and the
hardships of the Confederate soldier.
This would be appropriate work for the
Confederate camps. Every county
should have some organization for the
collection of this data. Adams county
has published pamphlet giving the
name OF every soldier that enlisted from
that county. At Liberty, Amite county,
there is monument on which is en-
graved the name of every soldier from
Amite who was killed in battle, and in
the chancery clerks office there is a
complete roll of every company. We
have in our possession the rolls of forty
companies of the three Mississippi
brigades in Virginia, giving the military
history of every man from 1851 to March
/, 1865; SO that sufficient data has al
ready been collected and preserved to
encourage IN earnest and persistent
effort to accomplish what Colonel Ste
phens suggests. We will say this in re.
sponse to his suggestion, that we will
gladly be the custodian of all records
and sketches that may be prepared, and
later on will put them in shape for
preservation in the archives Of the State
Or for publication.
The Grenada sentinel., 1899-11-04

The writer's of history or biography
who rely upon secondhand data or
dates, frequently make serious mistakes
which subsequent corrections seldom
overtake. This writer, in preparing a
roster of Mississippi governors, found
that considerable guesswork had
been indulged in. For instance,
the impression very generally OBJ
tanned that Gov. John J. McRae was
born in Wayne county, Mississippi, but
a letter from his sister informed us that
he was born in Leedsborough, North
Carolina-the family coming to Missis-
sippi when he was two years old.
We copied into our roster q statement
that Ex-Gov. Henry s. Foote, died in
New Orleans, May 20, 1880, while in
office as superintendent of United States
mint" A letter from an obliging off,
cial Of the mint, recently received, gives
the following:
II find that Hon. H. 8. Foote qualified a.
superintendent Of ths United States mint
in this city December 20, 1878. He may
have been appointed sooner, but the pay
roll for December, 1873. shows that he was
paid for eleven days that month, while
Gov. Michael Hahn was paid for twenty
days for same month as superintendent.
Gov. Foote served as superintendent until
his death, May 10, 1880, in Nashville, Tenn.
The murder and cremation Of the
Gambel family in Leake county was one
of the most atrocious and diabolical
crimes of the century. There must have
been several engaged in the hellish
work, but only one was captured-s
negro living in the neighborhood, and
he was tied to tree and the fagots fred
by one Of his own race. He made .
confession, duplicating others, who
protested their innocence. One was
dismissed and the others are held for
developments. Mr.. Gsmbel was alb
sent, but the idea got out that he had
considerable sum Of money in the
house, and to get this, it is thought,
was the main object Of the flends, who
concluded that the destruction Of the
family was necessary to prevent de-
lection. The vicksburg Herald takes
occasion to suggest that it is very un-
wise to keep money in the home,
especially where, as in this case, the
family was left unprotected. NE.
The Meridian Herald Industrial Edi-
tion is q credit to Mississippi journalism.
Unlike the special editions of some
jounals that are gotten up "for revenue
only" Its illustrations and descriptive
matter give one pretty correct idea
cf the& progressive city that makes
such publication possible. tS
The New Albany Gazette has been
greatly enlarged and immensely, Inn.
proved In every respect. This speaks
well for Mr. Blakeslee, and speaks bet
ter for the people, who appreciate his
pluck and nroOreas. s5 4 SG. y

A Caution to Mississippl Soldiers In the
Spsnish.Amerioaa War.
JACKSON, Miss. Oct. y. lsse.
I have reliable iuformstion that -
legal firm in Chicago are organizing q
pool for tho purpose of instituting pro.
ceedings against the State Of Missis.
sippi for pay alleged to be due soldiers
recruited in that city for Mississippi
regiments for service in the Spanish
American war. They claim that .
bounty, amounting to about $780, is due
each man from the State Of Mississippi,
and are receiving power of attorney
from the men in order to bring proceed
ings against the State to compel pay
ment of this bounty. Incidentally
they are asking a fee of q. 90 in advance
toward defraying expense of proceed
ings and further payment Of $500
from any sum collected by them from
the State"
It is hoped that no Mississippian will
respond to this swindling scheme.
Whatever balance may be due those
who enlisted in the First, Second and
Third regiments will be paid without
the Intervention Of claim agents. Con.
gress has agreed to give all regiments
in service outside Of the United States
two months extra pay, and regiments
not sent to Cuba and the Philippines.
one months extra pay. So that the
Mississippi regiments will &C: pay for
one extra month; tho Fifth Immune,
two months. d
Most Of the States have paid their
men from the dates Of their enlistment
to the date of their being mustered in
by the regular army officers, and the
general government has reimbursed
the States SO doing. Had Mississippi
so done. the State would have been,
like the others, reimbursed. The
matter will be brought before the legis-
lature, and the legislature will doubt
less pay what may be due, or memorial
ize congress to foot the bill. The pay
rolls for the period indicated amount to
about $4,000. The amount due each
officer and man has been carefully
stated by Col. Hamilton and Gen.
Henry.
It may be six months before the Mis-.
sissippi claims for extra months are
reached. There are about 60, 900 claims
on file. Attorney W. e. Mollison, of
Vicksburg, represents the general gov.
ernment as to these claims, which are
separate and distinct from those from
