Justice to the Mexican Veterans.

Emile H. Brie, $40 Flatbush Ave,
Brooklyn, N. Y. makes a plea for the
Mexican veterans, who have not re-
ceived anything like the treatment ac-
corded their comrades of the civil war
They received no bounty, not even
clothing. Each company selected its
own uniforms and supplied them. In
his own State Of Kentucky, when the
Governor called for three regiments
10000 volunteers responded, tho the
State then had not one-tffird of its
present population. They incurred all
sorts OF hardships from the ignorance
of officers and the inability Of the Gov
ernment to properly equip and trans
port an army to the enemy's country
AS for himself. he served in the I'd KY,
commanded by Coils william r. Nc
Kee and Henry Clay. Jr. At Buena
Vista, on the second day. he was se-
verely wounded In bayonet charge
upon the Mexican infantry. The infan-
try opened ranks. and let the lancers
charge them in turn. His Colonel and
many line officers and men were killed
and all the wounded subsequently
slaughtered by the Mexicans. He was
shot thru the right thigh and In the
head. The latter splintered his skull.
and plate had to be put in. He is
now past 80 years of age. has endured
four major surgical operations within
six years. and is convalescent of facial
cancer cured thru the application of

Death of n Hero,

He was born In Philadelphia, and
taught school for two years In Illinois

L. A, and served with It until the end
of the war. rising to the rank of First
Lieutenant. He was ordered to report
to Col. Baylor. Chief Ordnance Officer,
Army of the Cumberland, who turned
over to him great amount of ammu-
milton and artillery supplies for Sher-
mans campaign. which were stored at
Resaca. The day following the battle
of Resaca there was heavy thunder
storm, and the lightning struck the
ammunition, causing an explosion of a
portion and setting fire to the packing
in some OF the boxes. This instantly en-
dangered the whole supply Of ammuni-
tion. Lieut.. Grubb saw the danger,
and, calling to Private Anderson, the
two snatched up camp kettles. which
they filled with water, and rushed into
The crater, where they began extin-
gushing the burning packing. They
succeeded In doing this. tho 1t was at
the most terrible risk, since at any mo-
ment a spark might have communicat-
ed to the other ammunition. Lieut..
Gf'ubb was complimented for his cour-
age by Col. Baylor, but this is as far
as 1t went. He took up his home I'm

of the Territorial Legislature. He was

John d. Sanders. seth Ill. and 9Th

made a fine record both in the yolun-

strong recommendations from his su-

ployment In the Quartermaster De-
partment at Fort Leavenworth as a
watchman. The official wanted to en-
ploy him, but found that Civil Service
rules prevented. The officer put him
to work. however, on a temporary job.

Reunion of the 9TH Ohio Cav.

Editor National Tribune: The Re-
union of the 7th Ohio Cav. was held on
Oct. 15 and 16 at Marietta, o., and
there were more than 500 soldiers pres
ent at this two days Reunion. 1t was
the Annual Reunion of the veterans of
Washington County, and there were
representatives of 81 separate COM
mands of the Union army. l am sure
that the editor of The National Tribune
will agree with me that the turning out
of more than 500 soldiers, mostly from
one County in our State, shows that
there are a good many old soldiers of
the civil war period still on top of earth
in the State of Ohio. The city of Mariet-
ia was ours for the two days, the citi-
zens doing everything to make the Re-
union pleasant. Maj. Palmer, of the
36th Ohio, was in charge of this Re-
union, and to him Is largely due the
eminent degree of success obtained.
Co. II of the 7th Ohio Cav. was recruit
ed In this County, and about 40 men,
bers of this company are still living,
nearly all of whom were present, and
we also had representatives from Cos.
B, E. F. G, L and M, and altogether II
was one of the most enjoyable Reunions
held In southern Ohio for many years.
and this idea of holding a Reunion of
all soldiers in the County at the same
time works excellently. Col. Sharer.
Commander of the Department of Ohio.

the veterans accorded him a very hand

I fully escaped In small boats across the

rotts on our right would have prevented

the enemy's skirmishers did not know
that their comrades had gone until in
formed by our troops.
Entering the Forts.
At precisely 1880 Col. Geddes sent
| word to Gen. Carr that there were no
troops in Red Fort. and added that he
believed that Spanish Fort was also
being evacuated. Gen. Carr answered
by directing Col. Geddes to advance a
strong skirmish line. and said he would
send the same order to Coils. Ward and
Moore. A little before IL the entire
division moved up behind strong skir-
mish line, and without resistance
| climbed over the parapets of Spanish
and Red Forts. MacArthur's Division
! was swept around the front and left of
| Spanish Fort, and marched in without
opposition. The Thirteenth Corps en-
| countered slight resistance on the part
of some portions of the rebel skirmish
| line. but after a few volleys drove the
remnant of the enemy inside Of Fort
Alexis. where they laid down their
arms and surrendered, expressing not
only astOnishment at the clever manner
| in which our forces drove them into
their works, but indignation at the
quiet exit of their comrades in arms.
There were about 800 prisoners in the
| batch, all OF whom were escorted to the
rear before daylight. The star-spangled
banner was thrown to the breeze from
| the three forts about 10 o'clock a. m.
on the 9th. There were some of the
| most improved patterns of artillery in
| the three forts. q greater portion of

were Brookes. Blakelys. Napoleons,

He said our artillery demonstration on
the evening of the 4th inst. and on the
night before was the most awful he
| had ever witnessed. He said that the
| rebels lost quite thousand men killed
and wounded during the siege. The
interior of Spanish Fort shows unmis-
| taxable signs of the terrible damage
done by our destructive guns The
whole interior Is a perfect smash. The
earth is full of deep holes and burrows,
the cabins are all smashed, or partly
smashed, and the parapet, from right
to left, Is marked In many places by
the flight of our shells. All the debris
Of battlefield met our gaze. The enc
my had managed to remove his wound
ed. but his dead he had left, right where
the poor fellows fell. In one corner
of the fort was a graveyard, and in
another was a lot of disabled gun car
riages and caissons and three disabled
cannon. The whole scene. as presented
on our occupation, was most dismal in
deed, and shows what an awful ordeal
the poor misguided fellows went thru
during these two weeks of an incessant
storm of shot and shell. Really what
that garrison passed thru during their
struggle to hold Spanish Fort may cas-
Ter be imagined than otherwise.
