1t was one afternoon in the autumn
Of 1851 that Richard Jordan Calling.
inventor of the famous Calling gun,
came across the river from Washing.
ton down to the Virginia side to test
out his invention before officers of
the Army of the Potomac.
Calling called for a volunteer To
turn the crank of the new machine
while the officers looked on, and from
the crowd Of curious soldiers that
stood about there stepped volunteer.
The young fellow was ]. w. Wickwire,
an enlisted man in the 9Th Army
Corps. Wickwire is now visiting in
Honolulu.
Beyond doubt Wickwire has the
distinction OF being the first soldier
that ever fired machine gun il the
American army, for the Calling gun is
said to be the first invented.
He recalls the scene wildly and re-
members the conversation he had
with the renowned inventor as he fin.
ished several periods of turning the
machine gun crank, during which time
Calling fed in blank cartridges. Cat.
ling stated that he himself and other
civilians had fired the gun, but that
Wickwire was the first soldier to
do so.
- didn't think much of it at the
time," says the old soldier, "but later
when the Calling gun became more
famous remembered what he had said
/ would like to know absolutely If that
honor is really mine"
Mr. Wickwire says that the Ameri.
can government did not purchase any
of these machines for the army at
this time, but that two were pur.
chased and used in the 83rd Pennsyl.
vania Regiment, the funds being do
mated by the stategor by private citi-
zens. His own regiment did not use
any during the war, which he saw to
the end He became an officer before
the war closed.
Some 20 years ago he again met
Mr.. Calling at time when the in
Yentor had come to New York state
to consider the erection of factory
there. The site was picked near land
owned by Mr. Wickwire and the lat
ter went to the inventor to arrange a
sale. but the deal was not consum-
mated.
Il had intended to mention the
other incident to him." says Mr.. Wick
wire. who is now II years of age, "but
others we're pressing in to see him
and the opportunity did not come.
regret, of course, that / did not speak
out at the moment"
The veteran, though old in years,
has kindly face and fund Of humor
that combine to make him seem
young. His friends here say of him
that he is one of the kindest men
that ever lived. FIG.
Incidentally he is booster for Ha-
wall and on trip here several months
ago collected and sent back ahead of
him 5000 seed leis, which he dis.
tributed throughout New York, his
home state.
He Is also friend of newspapers
and declares that the daily press is
the greatest educator. SURPRISING even
schools and books. Without the news
papers, he says, the country would not
be so advanced by far His home
town-is Akron, Erie county. N. Y. He
has been member OF the Masonic
Lodge there for 81 years.

during Carnival time and rode with
