ATHEARN * NE day in the spring of 1848, a young first lieutenant sta­ O tioned at Monterey, California, learned that the far­ famed Kit Carson, trapper and scout, had arrived from Taos with mail and dispatches. Having seen Fremont's recent writ­ ings, the officer was anxious to look upon this man who had come to international notice through his feats of daring in the western wilderness. Making his way to the tavern he found a small, round-shouldered individual with hair that was not quite as red as his own and whose appearance was somewhat less spectacular than he had imagined. Carson proved to be a further disappointment in that his speech was monosyllabic and he displayed little tendency to talk about the exploits that were claimed for him. Yet, in their modesty, the two men were much alike and shortly a warm friendship developed.

    MS-236, Patterson Family Papers Collection Number: MS-236 Title: Patterson Family Papers Dates: 1780-1970 Creator: Patterson family Summary/Abstract: A collection of correspondence, family histories, photographs, business records, and scrapbooks from two local pioneer families who played an important part in the early development of the Miami Valley: the Pattersons of Dayton and the Johnstons of Piqua. The business records cover the period 1785-1879 and relate to the operation of the Patterson Family farm and lumber mill. Some of Col. Robert Patterson's land surveys and quartermaster records are also included. The correspondence consists of letters between family members and friends, the bulk of which falls within the years 1820-1900. These letters are a good representation of 19th century life and discuss business, family affairs, daily activities, and politics. Of particular interest are the letters to Julia Johnston Patterson from her sons in the Union Army during the Civil War. The scrapbooks are an eclectic collection of newspaper clippings, programs, and memorabilia concerning John H. Patterson, the National Cash Register Company, and local and family history.

COLTON This second installment of the letters of Samuel Ryan Curtis, Congressman, engineer, and soldier, continues the publication of his correspondence through the first year of the Civil War, begun in the July issue of The Annals of Iowa as "The Irrepressible Conflict of 1861." As this second series begins. Colonel S. R. Curtis is on his way east to Washington, to attend the special session of the Thirty-Seventh Congress, and hopeful of winning a general's star in the volunteer army of the United States. Meanwhile his troops, the 2nd Iowa Volun- teer Infantry, continues to guard the Hannibal & St. Joseph Railroad line, to which duty they had been ordered in June, one month before. The reader will be interested in Curtis' comment upon the problems of supply confronting the Federal forces in 1861, problems much in the public mind in 1942, facing another war. Of special interest in this series of the war correspondence are the accounts of the developing crisis in the military command of the Department of the West, under that eccentric, colorful and at times pathetic figure.

  • The Twenty-Fifth Bicycle Corps
    University of North Carolina at Asheville Wheels of Modernity: The Twenty-Fifth Bicycle Corps A Senior Thesis Submitted to The Faculty of the Department of History In Candidacy for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts in History by Adam Duchac Asheville, North Carolina 8 December, 2011 Duchac 2 As the sun began its ascent into the summer sky on July 23, 1897, a group of bedraggled men mounted on bicycles slowly made their way into the township of Oregon, Missouri. The residents of the town expected the group but were still caught off guard by the men they saw. A journalist from the Holt County Sentinel wrote that “A regular army soldier is rarely ever seen in our midst, and to see a colored man as such is a still greater novelty- and to see them mounted wheels, with gun strapped over back is an unusually strange sight.”1 The group of men belonged to the Twenty-Fifth Bicycle Corps, an all black outfit that was on the verge of completing a 1,900 mile trip from Fort Missoula, Montana, to St. Louis, Missouri. The long distance ride was concocted by Lieutenant James A. Moss, a white officer who had recently graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point, as a means to test the bicycle‟s efficiency and reliability as a new form of transportation for the United States Army and as a possible replacement for horse mounted soldiers. As the nineteenth century came to a close the U.S. Army faced a number of changes as did the black soldiers who were a part of it.
