he is either a "hasbeen," the tor

Mother TuPchin,

Editor National Tribune: In your re-
cent issue of Jan. 6, 1910, several in
quiries were made concerning Mrs.
Turchin. Gen. Turchin took command
of our brigade when Gen. George
Crook left us in camp near Tullahoma.
Tenn. soon after its evacuation. Our
brigade at that time was made up with
the Seth Ohio, 11th Ohio, 89th Ohio
and my regiment, the 92d-Ohio, and
the 18th Ky. and the 18th or 18th Ind.
Battery. 1t was only a short while
after our brigade left there when 1 saw
an aged lady on horseback near Gen.
Turchin. and that was Mother Tur-
chin. Mother Turchin was with the
General until the battle of Chickamau-
ga, and persistently remained there un-
til Gen Turchin ordered her to go back
to look after the sick and wounded. l
was made a prisoner of war on SUM-
day, Sept 20, 1868, late in the after
noon, and never saw Mother Turchin
again. Her memory followed me to
Belle Isle, Richmond, Danville, Va, and
to Wirz's Hotel at Andersonville. By
one of Turchin's old brigade.-Theo.

Are You an Heir?

It is estimated that there are some
thing like 10000 persons scattered
throughout the Ud S. and Canada who
are entitled to moneys and lands now
tied up in the English High Court of
Chancery and elsewhere, owing to the
inability of lawyers to locate them.
The great troubleois that foreign law
yers, when searching for lost heirs,
almost invariably advertise for them
in London or Edinburgh newspapers;
as these papers are seldom seen in
this country, of course, the missing
heir never knowsIof the good fortune
that is awaiting him or her, and thus
the case drags along in the courts for
an indefinite time.i As an aid to those
interested in chancery cases, and who
believe that they are entitled to an in
neIitance, an enterprising publisher has
prepared an authentic list of persons
who have been advertised for during
the past $50 years. including the fa-
nous Bogardus. Sir Francis Drake,
Page. Springer, Townley, Jennings and
Harlem estates, and unsettled estates
in England, Germany, France, Ireland,
Scotland and other countries. The
list is a very long one, and not only
gives the full name of the heir that is
and address Of the attorney having
peri5h Can secure details of this list
by sending q two-cent stamp to the
Royal Register, 112 Madison Square,

A LABOR OF LOVE.
The Grand Army Memorial Hall at
AndersOrTiiie, Sd. Erected by the
Ladies' of the G. A. r.

Ever since the "Old Soldiers Colony"
was established at Fitzgerald, Ga, and
the colonists took charge of the Me-
mortal Day services at the National
Cemetery at Andersonville, il was ap-
parent that a shelter of some kind in
or near the cemetery was very neces-
Sary. Heavy rains were not uncom-
mon, and burning sun always. Long
hours of waiting for trains under pour
ing rains or burning suns was the usual
experience, till the little Circle of the
Ladies of the Grand Army at Fitzger--
aid, mere handful of brave women
took the matter in hand and started
the movement to erect the building
now known as the Grand Army Me-
mortal Hall, near the cemetery at An
dersonville. The building stands on
the Government reservation, just out
side the large entrance gate to the GEM
etery, by permission of the Secretary of
War. A site was offered inside the
cemetery, but the comrades preferred
TO have it outside, on account of the
many restrictions applying to the in
side.
The building is of artificial stone
with tile floor and fireproof roof. 1t can
be closed and locked securely, and the
five windows on each side and two in
each end are protected with solid shut
ters. The building is 30x40 feet, with
14-foot ceiling. The hall is furnished
with a speakers platform and desk,
nearly 200 chairs and 20 small tables
around which the comrades and their
families can gather to eat their lunches,
for the comrades. have to go so miles
from Fitzgerald to Anders0nville, and
they carry baskets with them filed
for their lunchcons. There is a hand
some Bible, presented by a comrade in
New York. and a couch presented by the
Circle at Gettysburg, Pa. A part of
the furniture of the hall is a beauti-
full flag, 11X20 feet. presented by Horace
Stevens Circle. of Cambridge, Mass.
When the weather is such that the me-
mortal services cannot be held out of
doors they are comfortably held in the
hall.
The total cost of Grand Army Me-
mortal Hall, not including carpenter
work, was S1,752. This was all con-
tributed by the Ladies of the G. A. r.
all over the United States. The Pris-
oners of War Association of Connecti-

Editor National Tribune: was much
pleased with the article in q recent
issue about Gen. Sickles. was with
the "oid boyr as one Of Kearny's Di-
vision when sSickles was put in COM
mand of it, and saw him a short time
before he lost his leg. We, the 10th
N. Y, were in ther peach orchard, and
then hurriedIthru the wheatfield to the
help of Wards Brigade in Devils Den.
So you see we had5a yariegated expert
ence there. 1t has always seemed
strange to an innocent little Captain
why the General commanding COM
paratively short battle-line at such
very important time did not take the
Third Corps, Ior send his Chief Engineer
to see that after it had been routed
out of the place it had been put by
Hancock and had worked most OF the
night before to strengthen and put II
in the place where he wanted 1t. after
which he should have reinforced 1t at
SUCH vital spot. Was it not the Chief
Engineers business to see that the line
was properly strengthened? At that
time it was light about 4 a. m. The
attack of Longstreet took place at
p. m., y hours after, yet Gen. Meade
knew nothing about his left center or
left flank. After Sickles had sent his
Aids and gone himself hes was told
to form line from Hancock's left to

when Sickles used the discretion given
and took the best fighting ground he
could find, Meade waited until the last
minute, and then came out and found
fault.-W. Fl. Warner. Captain, 4Oth
