Mr.. Wheelock for years conducted

Ocean Park, Cal, Jan. 24.-George
H. Wheelock, of 121 Golden avenue

OF being the youngest soldier that
ever wore the blue. He made a bril-
liant record during the four years

listed as the drummer boy in company

Wheelock, who has lived for about
year In this city and who has been
OF late assisting Col. Schroeder in
working in the interest of the Royal
Italian bands subscription fund, is
considered among the most expert OF
drummers. The Spanish war veter-
ans at their meeting last night, open
ed negotiations with him to instruct
their new drum and fife corps.
Enlisted at Early Age. .
Wheelock claims to beat L. D. Howe,
of Streator, ILL.,, for the honor of be-
ing the youngest living veteran. Howe
was born in August of 1920. For six
weeks in 1861 he beat drum to sum-
mon recruits to the wigwam in Hiram,
o. Wheelock enlisted when he was
eleven years and three days old, ana
claims to have beaten Howe's record
by three weeks.
Young Wheelock was not quite
eleven years Of age when the news OF
the bombardment of Fort Sumpter
reached kalamazoo, Mich, where he
lived with his parents. The youthful
patriotism of the boy was aroused at
the act of the southern authorities
and he was enthusiastic to enter the
service. His enthusiasm was so appar-
ent that the battery was organized
young Wheelock was selected as its
drummer boy This was April 81, 1851.
The boy had celebrated his eleventh
birthday just three days previous to
his muster into the army of the Uni
ted States.
After time spent in the camp of
instruction, where young Wheelock
quickly learned how to beat the drum
as but few drummers did during the
long struggle, the battery was sent
south and for three years and a half
the command participated in come of
the hardest fought battles Of the war.
During all that time young Wheelock
remained with his battery and perch
ed on the forward caison along with
his comrades when his services were
most needed, and the rattat-tat of his
drum was often heard above the roar
of battle. He gained for himself an
enviable record which has chung to
him through all the years since the
struggle ended. After the war young
Wheelock went to school in Michigan,
and when he reached mans estate
moved to Ottumwa, Iowa.
