THE YOUNGEST
SOLDIER

Much has been said about the young
est soldier in the civil war and quite
often we hear of such persons. Sha-
mokin and Hughesville several weeks
ago claimed the youngest soldier"
hut that distinction, without doubt,
belongs to Danville.
Several weeks ago when the death
of William Taylor occurred at Sha-
mokin his friends gave him the honor
of being the youngest soldier in the
civil war, he having enlisted at the
age of II years, 8 months and 2 days.
The gentleman certainly enlisted at
an early age, but from Hughesville
comes the report that at that place
resides a gentleman, the Rev. /. B.
Christ, who entered the service of the
United States when II years of age,
enlisting in Company G., One Hundred
and Thirty-eighth regiment, Pennsyl-
vanla vUlul;c~IS, which WAS rccruitod
at Gettysburg, as drummer boy, and
served for two and half years, So
curing an honorable discharge for dis
abilities, as he had been wounded at
the battle of Cold Harbor, his right
arm being permanently crippled.
During his service he was in seventeen
battles, among them being that of the
Wilderness.
The drummer boy was accompanied
in his service by an elder brother, who
acted as guardian or "gOdfather'' to
him, looking after him throughout
his service. This elder brother lost
his right arm in the battle of the Wild
erness, the drummer boys brother as
sisting to carry him off the battlefield.
he himself being carried off in the
samo manner several months later at
Cold Harbor.
But Danvillo claims the honor of
having among its citizens the youngest
soldier who served during the civil
war. The following appeared in Sat
urday's Philadelphia North American: :
1.-The distinction of having among
its citizens the youngest soldier who
served during the civil war undoubted-
ly belongs to Danville. 1t is true the
honor is contested by other localities,
but in every instance where the facts
are verified it is found the youngest
soldier went into service when about
twelve years old, rarely below that
age.
"The Danville claimant is G. p.
Harder, who enlisted at the age of ten
years and six months. He was the
youngest of five brothers, all of whom
entered the Union army.
Mr. Harder spent more than two
years in the service, and had the hon

drum on the occasion of Abraham

HARD ON
MIR. JAMES

The Philadelphia Record yesterday
contained the following item under
the head of Estate News
For murderous assault and Jail
breaking, U. Y. James was sentenced
at Bloomsbury to 10 years imprison-
ment. "
The above will be recognized by our
readers as "A sample of the trash
sent out from Bloomsbury to the Phila
dclphia newspapers under the guise of
news Lacking enterprise to hunt up
facts for themselves the 2enny-a-Iiners
there SEIZE upon the American
as a rich morsal and readily work over
it's contents. The item clipped from
the Record, which rerescnts the innOc-
ent victim of an attempted hold-up a
the highwayman who has gone TO the
penitentiary, is a sample of their Dcst
efforts There is scarcely an item re-
lating to Danville that does net con
tain glaring inaccuracy.
Danvillo, of course is out of Blooms
burg's jurisdiction but the penuy-a-
liner there gets over the difficulty by
unblushingly changing the scene of
whatever event he has III hand. He
either represents the affair rs taking
place at Bloomsbury or he jugclos
with the facts in such "A way as to de-
ludo the Philadelphia editors into the
impression that Danvilie, Mausdale,
Riversid6 and other lOGalitics are mere
suburbs OF Bloomsbury ana the stories
as they appear i'll print often convey
this idea While this may not be very
creditable to the Philadelphia men,
who at least ought to know the rudi-
ments of local geography, it reflects in
d worse way on the correspondent, who
deliberately resorts to lying in order
to realize few cents on news which
belongs to another field.
Specials of this sort cmanating from
Bloomsbury generally possess the ad-
ditional fault of being stale, although
this fact is very cunningly concealed
by the fertile-minded correspondent
who simply changes the date. Thus
an event which cl here three or
four days in the past is apt to loom
up at Bloomsbury as taking place
last night"
On the whole a few of the Philadcl-
phia dailies are made ut times to ap-
pear little short of ridiculous through
the manipulations of the Bloomsbury
correspondent.
