WILLIAM HARRISON TAYLOR, - 1 903. | PUBLISHED B Y “SOUVENIR” WILLIAM HARRISON TAYLOR, PUTNAM, CONN. i / . PUBLISHER'S N OTE. A s pecial effort has been made in this Fourth Volume of the “Legislative Souvenir” to introduce a new feature—group engravings of the various com mittees. In order to make this valuable addition to the book a success, the publisher paid his particular attention to the group pictures rather than to individual portraits and sketches. It is a pleasure to state that this volume contains a portrait and sketch of all the State officers and Senators and a portrait (and sketch of a large number) of 231 of the 255 members of the House; also a group portrait of 161 of the 168 delegates to the Constitutional Convention, and several portraits of the officials of the General Assembly and Commissioners of the State. The S tate officers were all Republicans. The Senate was composed of eighteen Republicans and six Democrats; the House of Representatives of one hundred and eighty-seven Republicans and sixty-eight Democrats. We e xtend our hearty thanks to all who have so kindly encouraged the enterprise, and to the many persons who have favored us in various other Ways. THE P UBLISHER. Printing a nd Binding hy R. S.

  • Generalsecond Bullrun Campaign Under Pope That the Whole Corps Had to Be Detached from the Army of the Potomac for Rest and Recuperation
    PITTSBURGH VOLUNTEERS WITH SICKLES' EXCELSIOR BRIGADE Bruce Sutherland PART 3 Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville Heintzelman's Third Corps had been so badly mauled in the battles on the Peninsula under McClellan and in the GeneralSecond BullRun campaign under Pope that the whole Corps had to be detached from the Army of the Potomac for rest and recuperation. The three divisions of the Corps were assigned to that quiet sector known as the Defenses of Washington. General Hooker's old division, the Second, was placed temporarily under the command of General Grover while Colonel Nelson Taylor commanded the Excelsior Brigade, subject to General Sickles' return. Early in September 1862, the Excelsior regiments were en- camped about two miles southwest of Alexandria near Fort Lyon. They had fallen back from the Chantilly battlefield and as William Wiley of the Friend Rifles describes it, "We only went a short dis- tance beyond that field when we again laid on our arms, and it was raining and very cold. No sleeping was done that night. The next morning we got a loaf of bread and started off again towards Fairfax and then left itand went out scouting through the country until dark when we camped again on a beautiful farm and where we lived well for that night on corn, potatoes and apples. At daylight, the morning of the 3rd, we were on the move towards Alexandria ... J>1 The column moved through thickly wooded country toward the Potomac at Pohick Church and by early afternoon the troops were on the river road which skirted Mount Vernon.

  • The Excelsior Brigade and the Civil War
    To Bleed for a Higher Cause: The Excelsior Brigade and the Civil War Francis Butler History 390: Honors New York and the Civil War December 4, 2012 Butler 1 Joseph Hopkins Twichell, the Chaplain of the Excelsior Brigade, wrote that as he saw the destruction caused during the Battle of Williamsburg all he could think was, “’sin entered into the world and death through sin.”1 The Civil War was the bloodiest conflict in American history; it was a war that claimed the lives of nearly 700,000 Americans and came close ripping the nation asunder.2 Describing why men volunteered to fight and die during this bloody war, Abraham Lincoln stated that the Civil War soldier served because of his “patriotism, political bias, ambition, personal courage, love of adventure, [and] want of employment.”3 Indeed, during the Civil War, the armies of the Union and the Confederacy were fed most often by volunteers. It were these men who enlisted at the war’s inception, and reenlisted when their terms of service expired, who did most of the fighting and dying on the Civil War’s many sanguine battlefields. As James McPherson states, internal motivations such as patriotism, a sense of duty and honor, courage, moral convictions, or want of adventure had to be powerful inspirations for the Civil War soldier to volunteer since the majority of Civil War soldiers chose to fight. 4 Once in the army, Civil War soldiers were continually motivated and supported by the bonds that they shared with each other, by their Christian faith, and by the inspiration of brave officers.5 By analyzing who the men of New York’s Excelsior Brigade, comprised of the 70th through 74th New York volunteer regiments, were and what they experienced during the war, it is possible to understand how patriotism, duty, and faith inspired soldiers to serve and how faith, camaraderie, courage, connection to home, and inspiring leadership enabled these soldiers to 1 Joseph Hopkins Twichell to Edward Twichell, May 9, 1862, , The Civil War Letters of Joseph Hopkins Twichell, eds.

  • Third Regiment
    HISTORY OF THE THIRD REGIMENT EXCELSIOR BRIGADE 72d New York Volunteer Infantry COMPILED BY HENRI LE FEVRE BROWN SERGEANT COMPANY B. 1902 JOURNAL PRINTING CO., JAMESTOWN, Nm Ye 1902. INTRODUCTION. In preparing this history the official war records have been carefully searched for all material that could in any way contribute to a full understanding of the events ner- rated. Wherever possible battles and movements have been described in the language of official reports. In some cased, als in that of Williamsburg, the same engagement is described in several such papers, written by the command- ers of the regiment, the brigade and the division, with often a brief recognition of the service of the reginlent from still higher. sourws. Orders, reports and extracts bearing on this history are given word for word as writhen, and in many cases, witl?~.outother explanations of the events referred to. Promotions and changes of command are announced in general orders. In this way the experience of the regi- ment will be more rea.dily followed than if the narrative were cumbered with unimportant details. There czn be no questlion that many officers and men not mentioned i11 this history by name, were equally worthy, and perha.ps more worthy of notice than those whose nalmes and deeds are here given. In view of tlhe impossibility of doing exact justice to all, the rule has beell followed to make honorable mention only of those alreadp named in official records. All regimental papers have been examined in detail. The personal diary of the compiler has been compared with that of the chaplain for all rrlovements since January 1, 1863, and differences have been reconciled to the satisfaction OF both.

  • The Northwest Ordinance and the Northwest Territory
    THE NORTHWEST ORDINANCE AND THE NORTHWEST TERRITORY Points to Remember I. Northwest Ordinance passes in 1787 A. Created a single Northwest Territory out of lands north of the Ohio River and east of the Mississippi River that were ceded by France 1. Land was to be divided into 3-5 smaller territories 2. When population of a territory reached 60,000 the people could apply for statehood 3. Each new state would come into the Union on “an equal footing” with the original 13 states B. Included a bill of rights for the settlers, guaranteeing freedom of religion and a trial by jury C. Also stated, “There shall be neither slavery nor involuntary servitude in said territory.” 1. Marked the national government’s first attempt to stop the spread of slavery 2. People who already owned slaves were allowed to keep them 3. Often the slaves were not black but were Indians D. Further guaranteed to the people living in the territory 1. Protection against unjustified imprisonment 2. States formed in the Territory would always be a part of the United States 3. All lakes and rivers leading to the Mississippi and St. Lawrence Rivers would be open to use by any U.S. citizen 4. Indians were to be treated considerately – no land would be taken from the Indians without their consent 5. Schools and education would always be encouraged because “religion, morality, and knowledge are necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind” E. Three stages in becoming a state, each depended on the number of voters in the territory 1.
