Monument to Gen. Rosecrnn-.

Editor National Tribune: In your
last issue, under the above title you
state that During the Memorial Day
exercises the members of the Army of
the Cumberland were painfully struck
by the absence of any monument or fit
ting designation to the grave of Gen.
Rosecrans'' at Arlington.
Every survivor of that army Will
thank you. for your editorial upon this
subject.
There is now in the hands of the Lii
brary Committee of the House of Rep
resentatives 4 bill providing for the
erection of Memorial TO Gen. VIII
| liam s. Rosecrans at his grave in the
National Cemetery at Arlington 1t
calls for an appropriation by Congress
of the sum Of $4,000 for this purpose.
| The bill was introduced by Gen. c. H.
tGrosvenor, at the request of the Society
of the Army OF the Cumberland.
/ Gen. Rosecrans's eminent and patri-
otic services certainly entitle him to
this memorial tribute. Nearly every
other distinguished leader of the Union
forces in the civil war has been honor
ed by the erection of a nota BILE and ex-
pensve monument, yet but a simple
wooden headboard marks the remains
of this beloved commander at Arling-
ton.
The Society of the Army of the Cum
tIttttu tilt SDlcHuiG equestrian
statue at Washington in honor of Gen.
George H. Thomas. 1t mas made liberal
contributions in memory OF Cen Shcr-
idan and other commanders, but the
survivors of that great army are not
row ah'e to pay this tribute to Gen.
Rosecrans.
We, therefore. feel justified in asking
the representatives of the Government
he cid so much to save and perpetuate
TO do this simple act of justice. We ask
it in the name of the surviving soldiers
of the army that this great military
Strategist so successfully commanded
at Rich Mountain, Carnifex Ferry, Iuka.
Corinth, Stone River, Liberty Gap and
in the campaign against Chattanooga.
Senator Foraker and Representatives
Grosvenor, Hepburn and Gardener
served under Gen. Rosecrans in the
civil war and delivered patriotic ad-
dresses at his burial services at Airing
ton. He was also an honored member
of the House of Representatives.
1t is to be hoped that every surviv-
ing soldier of the Union army will urge
upon Congress the justice of this ap-
propriation.-C. p. Thurston. Presi-
dent OF the Society of the Army of the

Lfzabeth A. Turner.

Editor National Tribune: Let me tell
you how Liza beth A. Turner became in
terested in the old veterans. After en-
listing twice and being taken home by
my father, | again enlisted. Ny father
again found me and attempted to take
me home with him, is / was but 16
years old, but the Captain prevailed
upon him to let me go with my brother.
AS soon as l could get into my soldier
clothes, like many other foolish bows
at that time, i wanted that everybody
should know that | was o fuII-hedgea
soldier, so | took the niece of Lizabet h
Turner and went to Springfield. Mass.
and we We're there married. Thru this
marriage Mrs. Turner became interest
ed>in the soldier boys and has ever since
been their champion and faithful
friend. l was greatly surprised and
panied to learn thru your most valua-
Bile paper of her death, and that she
died at Andersonvillc, where | was an
inmate for seven months, afterwards
being removed TO Florence to serve
nearly five months more. You rightly
state that her death will be keenly felt
and greatly mourned by thousands of
the remaining soldiers thruout- the
country, as none other has work ed
harder or accomplished more for the
G. a. r. than has my Aunt Liza beth.
and we may now we'll ask who will
that she has been called to lay down.
Again, in your last issue / note that
p. Graham, Co. u. 22d y. Y. Cav, of
oil City, Pa, says about his experience
at Andersonville, and in quoting some
other comrade who has evidently writ
ten some article in which he states that
a portion of the stockadc fell down.
said Graham says it is a mistake,
none of the S.ockade ever fell down
want to say that Mr.. Graham is greatly
mistaken, which fact ! can prove by
dozens Of my own regiment who were
also confined there, that over an hum
dred feet of the stockade fell at the
lime of a heavy thunder shower, and
some of the boys took advantage Of il
and swan down and out of the pen,
but only to be recaptured by the blood
hounds. Perhaps Comrade Graham
was not there at that time but this
certainly happened during my time.
the six raiders he mentions; when one
rope broke and the largest man of the
whole got up and ran about the stock
ade, but was caught and hung over
again. There has been much said and
written about the occurrences at An
defsonville which cannot he exaggerat-
ed, but little mention is made of Flor
ence, where we received greater per-
sonal cruelty than at Andersonville.
some of which / should be glad TO re-
late had | the time to do so, but for
the time must refrain from doing.

OF Subsistence. At the close OF the war,
tho he had handled hundreds of thou
sands of dollars worth Of cattle for
Gen. Thomas, he was able to settle his
business to the last penny without the
slightest difficulty.
Investigated BY the Pension once.
| Capt Worrell always kept the muster
rolls of his company and copies OF his
| official papers, and upon those muster
rolls depended the fate of most of the
men of his company who desired PEN
sions, and whose pensionable status
was easily settled by reference to those
rolls. In this connection Capt Worrell
related with a good deal of satisfaction
a story of how he was Investigated by
the Pension Office at Washington. The
singularity attending all those of Co. B
who applied for pensions was that they
could tell almost to an hour when they
were in hospital, when wounded, when
furloughed for sickness or anything else
that would give them a pensionable
status.
The Commissioner of Pensions, some
| 20 years or less ago, concluded to find
this capt. Worrell." and investigate on
the sly the man who gave to the men of
his company so glibly a pensionable
status The Pension Examiner came,
called on Capt. Worrell under some
other guise, and led him to talk freely
VI Ills regiment anu NoiIpetHN.
the Examiner asked about the record of
the last man who had applied for
pension. and Capt. Worrell gave 1t Off
hand. The Examiner asked about an
other. and Capt. Worrell replied again
with satisfactory evidence for the man
to get a pension.
Finally the Examiner remarked that
Capt Worrell must have a very reten-
tive memory. Capt. Worrell replied that
he had what was better, the company
rolls, and that he could give the history
of every man who had ever served un-
der him. The SpeciaI Examiner looked
over the roll books, and after that when
one of Co. b. S6th ILL.,, applied for a
pension, establishing his grounds on the
report made by his Captain, that pen
sionable status was not questioned.
Capt Worrell was member of Our
Country's Defenders" the organization
which practically antedated the Grand
Army of the Republic. and became Il
member of the Grand Army as soon as
he could form 4 Post. He was 4 char
ter member of Z. f. Larned Post, G. A.
r., and never held membership any
where else. He was several times Com
mander of the Post and had held many
other offices in 1t.
tie was also a Mason and member
of the /. o. o. +.

The 1st Ohio.

Editor National Tribune: Please give
a short history of the 1st Ohio. I was
a member of Co. H Of that regiment
j. s. Acheson, Columbus, Ohio.
The 1st Ohio was organized under the
first call for three months troops il
April. 1861. Its nucleus We're some of
the old militia companies in Cincinnati,
and so prompt was the response that
within 60 hours after the call the regi-
ment was aboard the cars moving for
Washington. The Colonel was Alex
ander McD- McCook. of the Regular
Army, and the Lieutenant Colonel, Ed
win A. Parrot. Its first experience un
der fire was when it went on scouting
expedition by rail to Vienna, Va, and
was fired on by couple of guns from {,
Confederate accommodating party. The
men speedily recovered from the con-
fusion, formed on either side of the
railroad and stood their assailants off.
In the battle OF Pull Run it belonged 10
Schenck's Brigade. to which was as
signed the duty of forcing the Stone
Bridge and attacking the enemyS right
flank This part of the program was
one of the many that miscarried in the
battle, and the regiment took but little
active part in the engagement. At the
conclusion of its three months il re-
turned to Cincinnati. where most of the
members entered the reorganiZed regi-
ment for three years.-Editor National
