THE THREE YEARS MEN.
COMPANY C, 7TH REGIMENT.
In the summer of 1861 a company was raised which was assigned to the 7th Regiment as Co. C. This regi- ment left the state for Washington September 18th, was in the expedi- tion to Port Royal and was the first to land, and their flags were the first on the soil of South Carolina. These Meriden men with their regiment have a brilliant record and well entitled to their reputation as a fighting regiment. They saw service in Georgia, South Carolina, Virginia and were at the taking of Fort Fisher, North Caro- lina.

MERIDEN IN THE CIVIL WAR.
F. While in camp August 25th on be- half of the ladies of Meriden, who were represented by Misses Helen Bradley and Mary Brooks, Hon. O. H. Platt presented them with a beau- tiful silk flag with a most eloquent ad- dress. Col. Wright, in behalf of the regiment, made a feeling and patriotic response. Afterwards, Col. Wright was presented with a noble black stal- lion, the gift of his personal friends. Hon. Charles Parker presented the horse in behalf of the donors. Col. Wright responded and closed his re- marks, saying "I make no pledges in return, of what I shall do. I simply say, I mean to do my duty, and I pray God will give me courage and nerve to do that duty well."
The regiment left for Washington August 28th and was stationed for a time at Long Bridge, Va. It partici- pated in the battle of Fredericksburg, the Siege of Suffolk, Va., by Long- street, and in minor affairs in North Carolina. It was the provost guard at New Berne, N. C., at the time of the great epidemic of yellow fever in 1864 and many died of that disease. In the actions before Kingston, March 8th to IIth, 1865, it suffered severe loss and a considerable part of the reg- iment were taken prisoners.
The regiment was mustered out at New Berne, N. C., June 27th, and ar- rived at New Haven July 4th, 1865.
