MORE YOUNGEST VETERANS"
Recent Discussion Brings Forward
Two Under Sixty.

That highly interesting hero, the
youngest veteran" Of the civil war
continues to bob up serenely now and
then. He seems to be almost If not
quite as numerous as the last survivor
Of the charge Of the Light brigade
at Balaklava. The surprisingly large
number Of men still living who enlist
ed when mere lads helps to uphold the
statement frequently made by indi
viduaIs and proved by the records OF
the war department that the great
conflict was fought and won by boys
young fellows who enlisted in their
teens. The records show a preponder.
ance Of such early enlistments.
Last March New York paper print.
ed a brief obituary Of the youngest
veteran" who had just died at the
age Of siXty-two. The editor received
a food of communications from claim
ants to that distinction. One modest
veteran from Brooklyn, signing him
self simply Cavalry" wrote, Il served
two years and six months and am not
yet sixty-two." Then f. Blemly, liv.
ing in another part Of Greater New
York, giving his birth date as Jan. 81
1919, came forward with this state.
ment: II served under Sheridan and
Custer in the Shenandoah valley until
the close Of the war, and l have q
year yet to hang on to the saddle be-
fore reach siXty-two."
Youngest Veteran Blemly was check
mated by Charles Carr Of Brooklyn
formerly Of Company c, Fourth Ohio
cavalry, who said he was born March
10, 1910, nearly six weeks later than
Blemly, and "served throughout the
Atlanta campaign under General Sher
man."
From New Jersey came the claim OF
David w. Ryan, only fifty-nine years
old, who served as bugler in Company
II, Second New Jersey cavalry. Young.
est Veteran Ryan seemed to have the
pennant. but Michael Donoho Of Au
burn, N. Y, assaulted his position and
captured the standard, being still un
der fifty-nine. Born May 81, 1851
Donoho Joined D'Eppenvolls zouaves
and went to the front in 1861. After
ward he served with the One Hundred
and Forty-ninth New York regiment
being mustered out at Syracuse Aug
10, 1865. Youngest Veteran Donoho
according to this record, was only d
ten-year-old when he joined the you
ayes and began to wear the baggy
breeches and the soft sash belt Of that
branch of the service.
1t is highly probable that If this
friendly controversy had extended te
the west there would have been sever
al youthful veterans somewhere around
the edges Of sixty to lay claim to the
honor.

POULTRY IN HIS BASS DRUM
Unlucky Drummer Had to Share His
Prize With the Colonel.


During the latter years of the war
the armies We're frequently obliged to
make rapid marches without their pro.
vision trains and ut other times wee
obliged to pass through devastated re
gionS, where there was not the slight
est prospect of obtaining anything in
the way of food AS a result of all
this the men were constantly devising
ways and means of obtaining, secret
ing and transporting food about their
persons.
On one OF the marches Of the Army
of the Cumberland the soldiers had
orders not to forage, but as their ra-
tiOns were rather low it took sharp
watching on the part of the officers to
prevent the men from foraging when
ever the chance presented itself. On
one occasion the bass drummer of one
Of the regimental bands managed to
secure two turkeys and six chickens,
which he secreted in the interior of
his bass drum. When they reached
camp that evening the band was Or
dered out to play for a review that
had been arranged on the spur of the
moment for a distinguished officer who
had arrived on a visit. All this hap
pened before the bass drummer had
time to remove his live poultry from
the inside of his drum. and. of course,
when he struck 1t it gave forth no
sound whatever. This exasperated the
colonel. who shouted repeatedly to
drum harder. Finally, in great rage,
he came down to where the latter
stood pounding for dear life and sweat
ing like a field hand
why in blank, blank, blank don't
you beat that drum louder?' he shout
cd.
Colonel" said the drummer in A
voice husky with anguish, there's two
turkeys and six chickens inside this
drum, and half Of them are for you"
"Well, why in blazes didn't you say
SOP" the colonel replied. Fall out at
once and go back to your quarters"
AS a matter Of course the colonel
subsequently shared in the repast.

him. which in itself would not at

him down to proceed without attract
ing attention, gave him hug and bade
him goodby with fervent God bless
you, my boy!' Then the officer re-
turned to the hilltop and watched.
