Stedman, Jr. Student, Soldier, Legend Suzanne Mittica AMST 802: Primary Research Materials April 29,2003 For the stainless, young and noble brave From the country for whom his life he gave, With a patriot-martyr’s pride.’ A sculpted figure of a Civil War soldier occupies a place of honor in many Connecticut towns. Most commonly, he appears as follows. The infantryman stands with one foot forward, the butt of the rifle (rifled musket) between his feet, hands grasping the muzzle, left over right, accoutrements and bayonet suspended from his waist belt, and the coat’s hood falling over the shoulders as a cape. He wears facial hair and the uniform hat which was known as the kepi when worn by an officer, sometimes as a “bummer” when worn by an enlisted man. The kepi was indeed generally worn; it is an authentic and realistic feature; slouch hats were popular in the Western theater. The soldier enerally is of stone, usually granite, but sometimes bronze. P There is something special about such an object, as it provides a tangible link to the past. Thousands of local townsmen who long ago formed the state’s volunteer regiments, who engaged the Rebel army in legendary battles like Antietam, Gettysburg, and Cold Harbor, who perished in Andersonville prison, and who returned but never forgot, are encapsulated into this communal form.

In these times of tight budgets, it can be a challenge to find ways to support worthy causes. But here’s an idea: Why not brown bag it,and pass some of the savings on to TU? I Eating out can be an unexpected drain on your finances. By packing your lunch, you can save easy dollars, save commuting time and trouble, and maybe even eat healthier, too. (And, if you still have that childhood lunch pail, you can be amazingly cool again.) I Plus, when you share your savings with TU, you make a tremendous difference.Gifts to our Annual Fund support a wide variety of needs, from purchase of new equipment to maintenance of facilities. All of these are vital to our mission. I So please consider “brown bagging it for TU.” It could be the yummiest way everto support the University. I Watch the mail for more information.

DAVIS. NEW YORK: JOURNEYMEN PRINTERS’ CO-OPERATIVE ASSOCIATION, No. 30 Beekman Street. 1871. REPORT OF Proceedings of the Twentieth Anniversary, AND OF THE RECEPTION HELD AT THE ST. JAMES HOTEL. In August, 1869, it was announced in a Convention held in Newport, R. I., that the second Decade of the National Women's Rights Movement would occur on the 19th and 20th of October, 1870, and that a committee must be appointed to prepare for its celebration. Such committee was appointed; and a call, embracing the important points of the one issued in 1850, was sent out in all directions. The invitation, cordial and earnest, was accepted by large numbers. The committee held a reception in the parlors of the St. James, and a collation was served at seven o'clock P. M. From the New York Sun. -WHAT THE PAPERS SAID ABOUT THE ST. JAMESRECEPTION. The parlors of the St. James Hotel were the scene of a delightful reception and reunion of the advocates of woman suffrage on Tuesday afternoon, between the hours of three and five. It was especially a meeting of reminiscences, recalling to many of the pioneers in the woman's cause hours of severe toil and labor, and some bitter experiences, not unmixed with times of rejoicing.
