plete History ana Roster.
AT the soldiers reunion TO be held in
Bethel on the Esd il is desired to learn the
complete history OF Company q, 18th
Rgt, VI, NJ, This is the company that
rendezyoused in Barnard, and contained
men from Pomfret, Hartford, Bridgewater
barnard and sharon. In looking over
the field for data of this company there
seemed 10 be none, the government having
data only OF those who died in the service,
or were discharged, or have drawn
pensions. As many members died with
out drawing pensions, there is little TO be
learned from the government, nor does the
government know where the members
live.
Fortunately ran upon eomrade who
IS kind Of phenomenal walking eney-
elopedla upon the history Of the company,
without memoranda or record, pencil or
paper, and called the original roll, telling
where each member lives, or where aud
when he died, with the exception, perhaps,
OF 5 per cent OF the members, As orderly
sergeant OF the company, called the roll
several times day for several months, al
ways by heart, but now, poor me,
cannot call half dozen names in order,
and as look over the roster | but dlmly
recall number OF the members at all
and some have faded from my vision en-
tirely. Anyone able TO give information
upon the lost heep, as pointed out in the
following roster, will do US great favor
by communicating with Charles L. Gilt
ford OF West Hartford
At least 81 per cent OF the company ar,
dead or missing and, OF the living, they
have been scattered by many winds, and
how many OF them will be present at the
Bethel reunionG II will be seen that tn,
company has the great honor and dis
tinction OF having a pair OF Brigadiei
generals ON the retired list OF the regular
army. Ii Is doubtful il another company
In the state has like record. Crosby
p. Miller OF Pomfret, and Henry +,
Hathaway OF Hartford are the men whC
so honor the company. All members OF
the company who receive this issue OF the
paper will probably feel il their duty
and pleasure to attend the reunion on the
Esd.
