SoIutes Old Reqiment

be ample time to straighten
out the history Of the Civil
War. 1t hasn't been done.
Many Of the weird stories
come from both sides, most
ly, the South.
Such a weird story was
that in the April 19 issue of
The Star, regarding the So
called First Defenders" The
only true part of that story
is that five batteries Of mill
tia artillery. in towns near
Harrisburg, Pa, heard that
President Lincoln had called
for $4,000 volunteers to de-
fend the Capital-that the
officers and men, imbued with
patriotic spirit and courage,
and being in uniform for the
weekly drill period, took it
upon themselves to start for
Washington. without equip
ment and arms, and without
official orders detailing them
to make the trip. In other
words, they constituted a uni
formed mob. helpless beyond
their individual strength.
On the other hand, the 9th
Infantry. Massachusetts Vol
unteer Militia. received orders
to assemble with uniforms,
arms and equipment, late on
the evening Of April 16, 1861.
The regiment, complete, with
other militia regiments, as
sembled in Boston between
April II and 18. and on the
latter day. the 9Th Infantry
entrained for Washington.
With a salaam toward the
First Defenders. the 9Th
Infantry, MVM. was the first
armed, uniformed and
equipped force to reach Wash
ington after President Lin
coins call for troops. 1t came
by train and in Baltimore,
the cars containing the troops
were broken into small units
to be towed across the city.
The last two cars, containing
two companies. were derailed
and the men were ordered out
to march to the railroad sta
ton. The crowds in mob
town" Gas it was then called
first inSulted the soldiers by
shouts and vituperation. Then
some foolish fellow fired a
pistol, killing one soldier. The
troops were halted and Or
dered to fire on the mob, the
result being IL mobsters killed
plus four soldiers killed or
wounded. The two companies
resumed their march to join
the regiment, without further
trouble.
The 9Th Infantry MVM,
arrived in Washington late
on April 10, ready for q fight
or a frolic. The regiment was
quartered in the nate
chamber for IL days, then
ordered to Baltimore and An
napolis Junction, to guard the
rail approach to Washington.
What became of the uni
formed mob from Pennsyl-
vania is not easy to deter
mine. It is supposed that,
when they realized that they
were in Washington without
official orders, and were use
less in the defense Of the city
as artillerymen without can
non, they returned to their
homes, to later become part
Of the gallant and huge force
furnished by that State to the
Union army.
In setting this incident Of
history straight according to
the actual facts and records,
there is no intention of ques-
tioning the patriotism. and
ability of the Pennsylvania
soldiers who turned into an
armed mob to defend Wash
ington. Not by this veteran
soldier who spent five years
as a private and corporal in
the 9Th Infantry, MVM, al
belt, not in 1861 but many
years afterward.

@. At a recent meeting a
club member who was bit
terly opposed to a motion
not only voted against it but
insisted that his vote be re-
corded in the minutes. Is
this ever done?-E. O.
A. 1t is seldom done, but
may be done if the group
permits. The voter addresses
the chair with his request;
the chairman asks if there
is any objection, and if there
is none directs the secretary
to make the entry. If there
is objection, the chair puts
the question to the group
and it is decided by majority
