GOSHEN IN THE WAR OF THE REBELLION. MILITARY RECORD.
There being no recruiting officer located in Goshen there were no enlistments from May till September, when Henry Fritz, Charles A. Barnum, Robert T. Becker, Daniel Kimberly, Uriah Nickerson, Gerrit Rinders, and Joseph N. Wooster joined the Seventh Regiment in October. Edward N. Fanning joined the Eighth Regiment, and John Fanning joined the Ninth or Irish Regiment. Peter McCabe, William N. Ford, and Henry C. Ford enlisted in the Eleventh Regiment about the same time, that is, in October. In the latter part of November, George W. Sperry, Henry E. Merrvin, George W. Butler, George C. Downs, James Hicks, and Benjamin H. Prindle, and in December, Michael Morris, Frank E. Wadhams, and Joseph Brady joined the Thirteenth Regiment, under Capt. Charles Blinn, of Company C. In Jan-

uary, 1862, Henry Mayo, Edward S. Richmond, James Robinson, and Frederick L. Wadhams joined Com- pany I, under Lieut. Frank Wells, of Litchfield, also in the Thirteenth Regiment. Up to this time no bounties had been promised or paid, except seven dol- lars and a half to each of those who had enlisted in the Fourth Regiment to buy each of them a pair of boots.
In the fall of 1861 there was apprehension that the soldiers in the field would suffer for the want of suffi- cient clothing and bedding, and a pressiuy call was made by the Sanitary Commission for aid. In re- sponse to this call the ladies of the "Soldiers' Aid Society" collected and sent to the commission in New York two boxes and one barrel, containing the follow- ing articles, viz., forty-four woolen blankets; sixty- one pair knit woolen socks, thirty-six bed-quilts, fourteen pillow-ticks, eight dressing-gowns, nine sheets, fifty-five pillow-cases, two pillows, sixty-four towels, seven knit wrappers, twenty-eight pair draw- ers, two flannel bed-gowns, twelve hospital shirts, two bars Castile soap, ten yards red flannel, fifteen rolls linen bandages, one box pins, needles, and thread, lot of lint, inventoried at four hundred and four dollars and ninety-nine cents.
At the session of the Legislature in June, 1862, a law was passed giving a bounty by the State of fifty dollars to each volunteer, and also authorizing the towns to pay bounties, and lay taxes to pay them or issue bonds for the purpose. The county was in great excitement and alarm about this time. MeClellan had marshaled a heavy force and advanced towards Richmond, but was compelled to make a masterly strategic retreat. Under these circumstances a re- newed effort was made to raise recruits. Governor Buckingham went through the State and addressed public meetings, urging the people to volunteer, as- suring them that if the towns should furnish more than their quotas that the excess should be applied on subsequent calls. Under these circumstances, Mr. James Q. Rice, who had been the principal of the Goshen Academy for eleven years, procured enlisting orders, and engaged vigorously in procuring volun- teers.
At a town-meeting held on the 3Ist of July, 1862, it was
" l'oted, That the selectmen are hereby authorized and directed to draw an order on the treasurer of the town for the sum of one hundred dol- Inrs in favor of each and every non-commissioned officer, musician, and private who resided In this town, and has enlisted or who may enlist be- tween the 10th day of July and the 20th day of August, 1862, In any regiment of volunteers being raised in this State under the recent call of the President of the United States. Provided, That each non-con- missioned officer, musician, and private, before he shall become entitled to the above bounty, shall procure a certificate from the officer command- Ing the regiment Into which he has enlisted that he has been accepted end sworn Into the service of the United States." A tax was laid, and the sum of four thousand six hundred dollars was collected within sixty days and pald to the soldiers.
Mr. Rice was very successful in obtaining recruits, so that by the 15th of August he had enlisted forty-five
volunteers, a large proportion of them being his former pupils. The above number not being sufficient for a company, they united with the Torrington recruits, which, when united, made a company of one hundred and two. On the morning of August 2Ist, Mr. Rice, with the men he had enlisted, assembled near the Centre meeting-house, and, after a few short addresses, proceeded to the head of North Street (accompanied by many of their friends) in Litchfield, where they were joined by their future comrades from Torring- ton ; thence, united, marebed to the court-house, where refreshments were provided by the citizens of Litchfield, and then proceeded to Camp Dutton, east of Litchfield hill, where they remained until their de- parture for the seat of war, which was on the 15th of September, 1862. In the afternoon of the day that the Goshen recruits left for Litchfield, those that had been recruited in Kent, Sharon, Cornwall, Salisbury, and Canaan met at Goshen Centre to the number of three or four hundred, where they were supplied with a substantial lunch by the Goshen people; thence proceeded to Camp Dutton. The quotas of the towns had not been particularly specified at this time, but subsequently it was ascertained that the quota of Goshen was but sixteen to satisfy all calls to this date, so that Goshen was largely in excess. While the regiment was at Camp Dutton, Mr. Rice was chosen captain of Company C, William McK. Rice, first ser- geant; James P. McCabe, third sergeant ; Homer W. Griswold, George W. Newcomb, Frederick A. Lucas, corporals ; and George D. Bentley, wagoner. Freder- iek A. Cook, who had recruited a number of men in the adjoining towns, was chosen first lieutenant of Company B, and Moses Cook, Jr., was chosen ser- geant of Company B. On the evening of September 6th, a fine army regulation sword was presented to Capt. Rice by his friends in Goshen, in the presence of a goodly number of the citizens, in the vestry of the Centre church. On receiving it, Capt. Rice made a very appropriate and patriotic response, in which he pledged himself that he would take it and wear it, and return with it or on it; the latter he heroically redeemed.
In April, 1861, the President called on the States to furnish seventy-five thousand volunteers for three months, the quota of Connecticut being seven hun- dred and eighty. In May, 1861, the President mado another call on the States for five hundred thousand men for three years, the quota of Connecticut being thirteen thousand and fifty-seven; in July, 1862, a further call for three hundred thousand three years' men, and three hundred thousand nine months' men. The quota of Connecticut in each of these calls was seven thousand one hundred and forty-five; total, fourteen thousand two hundred and ninety. The quotas under the foregoing calls were assigned to each town in the State in proportion to their military rolls made out by the State selectmen, and under State authority. But in subsequent calls the quotas

HISTORY OF LITCHFIELD COUNTY, CONNECTICUT.
were assigned in rolls made out by an enrolling officer in each town appointed under authority of the United States government, and the State divided into four districts, corresponding to our Congressional districts, and these into sub-districts, in most cases embracing a single town. Any surplus that had been furnished by any district was deducted from the quota of the district, but not from the particular sub-district or towns that had produced said surplus, so that the large excess that had been furnished by the town of Goshen did not avail her on subsequent calls as we had good reason to expect.
In December, 1863, a number of persons who were enrolled and liable to draft associated together and raised funds sufficient to procure volunteers or hire substitutes to fill the quota of the town and relieve themselves from draft. Under this arrangement the following persons enlisted and were paid the sums annexed to their names : Newton T. Abbott, seventy- five dollars; James Mooney, seventy-five dollars ; John Quin, fifty dollars ; James Quin, fifty dollars ; James Palmer, fifty dollars ; Marcellus J. Judd, forty- five dollars ; Wolcott Little, forty-five dollars; Timo- thy Maher, forty-five dollars ; James Hicks, forty-five dollars; William E. Albin, Charles H. Albin, Her- bert D. Hoxley, David Treadwell, Alfred Saunders, Samuel Hall, Jerome B. Ray; these last seven were paid four hundred and ninety-five dollars, being dis- tributed among them, in the whole, nine hundred and seventy-five dollars. The twelve first named were recruits in the Second Connecticut Heavy Artillery, and the four last named joined the Twenty-ninth Colored Regiment. Nelson Lawton entered the navy about this time. This terminated the enlistments from this town.
In February, 1864, the President called for five hundred thousand more men for three years. The quota of Connecticut under the new enrollment was seven thousand nine hundred and nineteen. John Quain, Thomas McCowen, and George McCaul were drafted under this call, but absconded to parts un- known, and did not return until the close of the war. Efforts were persevered in to make the excess of vol- unteers in this town available, but without effect. In August, 1864, the town appointed a committee to go to Hartford to consult with the Governor or other State officers, but the committee reported that there was no remedy short of an act of Congress. In Octo- ber, 1864, the town
"Voted, That the selectmen of Goshen confer with the selectoren of other towne which have furnished an excess of volunteers and memo- rialize Congress, or take some other measures to obtain justice."
In January, 1865, a convention of selectmen from the towns which had furnished an excess of volun- teers was held in Hartford, and such measures were adopted as induced Congress, then in session, to pass an act of relief, but too late to be of service to us, as no more men were needed.
By an act of Congress it was provided that any
person being drafted might commute by paying three hundred dollars or furnishing a substitute. In August, 1863, William Davis, Frederick E. Hurlburt, Andrew Bowns, Robert Palmer, and Warren Wilcox were drafted, and furnished substitutes at a cost of three hundred dollars each.
In June, 1864, the Legislature passed an act that all who should volunteer or furnish a substitute for three years or during the war should be paid a bounty of three hundred dollars by the State, and at the same time prohibited the town from offering bounties or laying taxes for the purpose. Notwithstanding the prohibition, at a town-meeting held on the 15th of August, 1864, it was
"Voted, That this town will pay to each person who has procured or shall procure an acceptable substitute for three years or during the war as part of the quota of this town, under the last call of the President of the United States for five hundred thousand volunteera for the military service, and to each volunteer as a part of said quota for the same period under said call, and to each person who may be drafted and held to ser- vice as a part of said quota under said call, the sum of three hundred dollars, to be paid to them in the order in which they shall have pro- cured such substitute or volunteer, or have been drafted and held to ser- vice as aforesaid till such quota be filled; and when such substitute or volunteer or drafted man shall have been duly accepted and mustered into the army or navy as part of said quota.
" Also the aum of one hundred and fifty dollars shall be paid to each of those who have been drafted and have provided substitutes which have been accredited to this town since the Ist of August, 1863. And the selectmen of the town are hereby directed to draw an order on the town treasurer for the payment thercof. Provided, however, that no greater snm shall be paid on account of anch substitute than the actual cost of obtaining the same over and above what is paid by the State."
At the session of the Legislature in June, 1865, an act was passed confirming the votes and doings of towns in relation to bounties that were passed con- trary to law, and the selectmen of Goshen issued orders on the town treasurer, dated Sept. 18, 1865, to the following-named persons :

As there were a number of Connecticut regiments stationed in and about Hilton Head, it was reported that they were in want of vegetables, and it was pro- posed to send them a vessel-load. Accordingly, a vessel was chartered and loaded at Bridgeport in season to be presented to the soldiers at or before Christmas, 1863; there was sent from Goshen, December 12th, thirty-two barrels, ten boxes, and one tub filled with vegetables, cheese, and butter, estimated at one hun- dred and seventy-eight dollars and fifty cents.
In January, 1863, the Lodge Soldiers' Aid Society sent to the Nineteenthi Regiment, stationed at Alex- andria, Va., one box, contents estimated at fifty-five dollars and forty cents ; also one box sent to the Sani- tary Commission, valued at sixty-six dollars. The Ladies' Soldiers' Aid Society after this time expended their efforts principally in work, making up articles furnished by the State society. The Christian Com- mission commenced its operations about this time, and collections were made, by the young ladies getting up tableaux, singing concerts, and contributions of monthly prayer-meetings, for the soldiers, amounting to four hundred and twenty-nine dollars and thirty- nine cents.
