Richard Tomlinson, mechanic, aged 40, 26th C. V. Served till the regiment was mustered out, but died soon after reaching liome, of disease contracted in the service.
James Torrance, aged 20, sergeant in the 3d C. V., and also in the 13th, killed in a charge at Port Hudson, May 24, 1863. He was a young man of distinguished bravery and moral worth, a native of Scotland, and brother of David Torrance, Colonel of the 20th (colored) regiment.
* The Norwich Light Infantry is a volunteer company of home guards, organized Feb. 17, 1862, consisting at first of 45 men, but increased to 60, S. R. Parlin, Captain. The company was accepted by the State as the nucleus of the 3d Regiment of State Militia, and Capt. Parlin commissioned by the Governor. The presence of this com- pany has given additional interest to the mournful observances of many a soldier's. funeral.

HISTORY OF NORWICH.
William H. Town, of Greeneville, mechanic, aged 29, 18th C. V., died in hospital at Sandy Hook, Md., March 28, 1864. (1 y. 8 m.)
Joseph A. Tracy, clerk, aged 18, enlisted as musician 18th C. V., wounded at Snicker's Ferry, July 18, 1864, and died in hospital at Sandy Hook, Md., Aug. 7, having been in the service two years to a day.
John F. Treadway, corporal 1st Conn. Cavalry, son of F. W. Treadway, of Norwich City. He enlisted at New Haven, Jan. 4, 1864, and died in captivity at Andersonville, Aug. 3.
Moses Tyler, aged 19, 14th C. V., captured at Morton's Ford, Feb. 7, and died in prison at Richmond, June 27, 1864. (1 y. 11 m.)
Erastus Vergason, farmer, aged 27, 10th C. V., killed at Roanoke Island, Feb. 8, 1862. (4 m.)
Ferdinand Volkner, carpenter, aged 36, 6th C. V., died Oct. 21, 1862. (13} m.)
Marvin Wait, son of John T. Wait, Esq., and when the war com- menced, a student in Union College, enlisted in the 8th C. V., Oct. 5, 1861. He was soon promoted to a Lieutenancy, and detached for service on the Signal Corps, in which capacity he was on duty in Burnside's flag- ship at the taking of Roanoke Island, and with General Parke at Fort Macon.
In the reduction of Fort Macon, April 26, 1862, signals were used with such complete success as to afford a vivid illustration of the value of a system of signs in certain contingencies of war.
Lieut. Andrews, of the 9th N. Y. V., and Lieut. Wait, occupied a sta- tion from which, by the aid of glasses, the movements of the enemy could be distinguished, and by signals from these officers the fire from the Union batteries was directed, rectified, and rendered accurate, with such effect that the fortress was soon surrendered .* Messrs. Andrews and Wait were highly commended for their service on this occasion. Subsequently, by order of Col. Myer, chief officer of the Signal Department, a Signal Bat- tle Flag, awarded to Lieut. Wait for gallantry and efficient service at Fort Macon, was sent to his father.
Lient. Wait rejoined his regiment at Fredericksburg, and at Antietam led his company in the gallant charge over the river upon the fortified posts at Sharpsburg. Here the advancing troops were outflanked and ex- posed to a destructive cross-fire of cannon and musketry. The first brig- ade was soon swept away ; the second, under Gen. Harland, to which the 8th Connecticut was attached, advanced to the rescue, but after fearful slaughter, was obliged also to retreat.
" Lieut. Wait fell at his post while urging on his men into that terrible storm of shot and shell."
* " After 12, M., every shot fired from our batteries, fell in or on the fort." At 4, P. M., the white flag appeared .- [Report of Lt. Andrews to the signal officer.]

HISTORY OF NORWICH.
"Just before he was wounded, he was seen closing up the ranks of his company and dressing them in line, as deliberately as though on dress parade."
Such is the testimony of his comrades who were with him in that terri- ble fight. Severely wounded and led to the rear, the fire from an advanc- ing body of the enemy enfiladed the spot where he lay, and gave him his death wound.
Lieut. Wait wanted four months of being twenty years of age. He was an only son, and the centre of many fond anticipations. His coolness and self-possession in the midst of battle were remarkable in one so young. An officer to whose command he was temporarily attached while on the North Carolina coast, said of him, " I had the opportunity of seeing Lieut. Wait under three most galling fires of the enemy, and when others older, both in years and time of service, were shrinking, he stood to his post like a veteran." General Harland commended him, not only for bravery and honor, but for the earnestness and zeal with which he labored to pre- pare himself for his various duties as a member of the Signal Corps and as a line officer.
The funeral services were held at the 1st Congregational Church. Governor Buckingham, the Mayor and Common Council of the city, the field and line officers of the 26th regiment, the Norwich Light Infantry, and a great assemblage of citizens were in attendance .*
Frederick S. Ward, aged 18, corporal 14th C. V., left mortally wounded on the field of battle at Fredericksburg, Dec. 13, 1862, sending by one of his comrades a last message of love and consolation to friends at home. This young man enlisted from Saybrook, and is credited on the quota of that town, but was a son of John B. Ward, late Treasurer of the Chelsea Savings Bank, Norwich.
George W. Ward, organist and music teacher, aged 26, 18th C. V. He was taken prisoner at Winchester, and confined successively at Bell Isle, Danville, and Andersonville, at which last station he died, Feb. 26, 1865, aged 29. His manly fortitude and genial temperament long sustained him, but continued hunger, confinement, and ill usage at length brought him to the grave, after he had been 21 monthis a prisoner. He had fine musical talents, was a steadfast patriot, and had many warm personal friends.
Patrick Welden, aged 34, sergeant 9th C. V., died at New Orleans, Aug. 14, 1862. (10 m.)
* The Portrait of Lieut. Wait appears in this work. He was the first commissioned officer from Norwich that fell in support of the Union cause. He had displayed signal ability and heroism for one so young and unaccustomed to military duty, and we have therefore given a more extended account of his short but meritorious service.

The number of fatherless children in town, made such by the war, is ninety-three. Some of them bear the names of Banney, Bresnahen, Col- lins, Gleason, Mc Garry, McNamara, Munroe, O' Donnell, and Sanders, showing that nine more names, at least, should be added to the foregoing list of the war's victims.
NOTE.
In reviewing this work, as the last pages go to press, a few passages are observed that belong to the class of Errata-not printer's errors, but mistakes inadvertently made by the writer.
Such are the two following, which happily it is not too late to acknowl- edge and amend. P. 77, 18th line from the top, erase the sentence : " now deposited in the archives of the Bible Society." This is an error, the venerable book referred to being still in the possession of the Lathrop family. P. 527, 3d line from the bottom, the date of the Sabbath School should be 1816, and the place where it was first kept, the brick school- house.
The Memoir of Mrs. Harriet Winslow shows that the Sabbath School of the First Society had an interesting and auspicious commencement. Miss H. W. Lathrop, (afterward Mrs. Winslow, of the Cingalese Mission,) during a visit to New York, in March, 1816, witnessed the operation of the Sunday School institution in that city, and came home with the fire in her heart, which she spread among her friends and neighbors, and in the course of a few weeks, a prosperous school of the same kind was in operation in this Society.
Miss Lathrop and her friend, Miss M. Coit, were the first teachers. They began with a class of seven ; on the 23d of June, they rejoiced over "two new scholars," and before the close of July, the whole number that had been gathered in was forty-seven. An interesting feature of the school was a class of colored women, under the teaching of Miss Thomas.
This school, and the one at the Landing, begun the previous year, had a common origin,-G. L. Perkins, and his associates in the work at Chelsea, having caught the inspiration, as Miss Lathrop did afterward, by visiting the Bethune Sunday Schools in New York. There was only this difference-in Mr. Mitchell's Society the first movers were young men, in that of Dr. Strong, young women.

"NORWICH, Aug. 13, 1841. " SIR :
" We are about to ereet a monument to our ancient Saehem, under whose Deed this Town derives title to its land. I am desirous of ascertaining the best spelling of the name of this ancient Sachem, and therefore take the liberty to address you on the subject. In the copy of a deed dated 1659, the name is spelt ONKOS, but the usual spelling in this town has been UNCAS. Reference has been had to the origi- nal MS. volume of Gov. Winthrop. It is found that the spelling is various in different parts of the writings of the first Governor of Massachusetts, and probably other author- ities vary as much as Winthrop ; but opportunity has not been had to hunt up MSS. of Gookin or others. The sound would be the same, I suppose, with an Indian intona- tion of on or un, but the latter is the prevalent form in Winthrop. Suppose we had before us the original record of the Commssioners of the United Colonies, of which each colony, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Plymouth and New Haven, had the same, and we found the Secretaries of the first spell our great predecessor's name one way, the second another, the third a various way, and the fourth still different from either, which would you follow ? But, suppose, further, that all four differed occasionally with themselves respectively, what then ? Why, I fear we shall be puzzled more after inquiry than before. Still, we have to determine one way, and I am desirous of learning your opinion as to the best spelling of the name of this ancient Sachem and firm friend of the white man; and as the Monument is nearly completed, I shall feel much obliged by your reply at your earliest convenience.
Very Respectfully,
Your Ob't Serv't. .
G. L. PERKINS."
APPENDIX.
IN the foregoing work, (p. 585,) some account is given of the Uncas Monument erected in the old Indian Cemetery, in 1842. The expense of this monument was borne by the ladies of Norwich. It was wrought of Quincy granite, at the Massachu- setts State Prison, Charlestown, and coarsely cut, with the simple name of the Sachem engraved upon it, in large raised letters-the monument harmonizing in its structure with the stern and savage character it commemorated.
The direction and superintendence of the monument was committed by the ladies to G. L. Perkins, Esq., who addressed a circular letter to several distinguished anti- quarians, requesting an expression of opinion in regard to the best mode of spelling the Sachem's name. Among the answers that he received were the following, which may be deemed worthy of preservation, not only on account of the distinction of the writers, but as exemplifying in one short name the confusion and uncertainty that exists in Indian orthography.
HARTFORD, August 17th, 1841.
G. L. PERKINS, EsQ.,
Dear Sir :- Your note of the 14th inst., has been in my hands a day or two. I have, in the meantime, examined some of the old records and documents in the Sec- retary's office. The result is according to your own experience and observation, viz., that the name is spelt variously. In an original letter from the Rev. James Fitch, of Norwich, dated in 1675, it is written Unkus. In the records, it is generally written Uncass, sometimes Uncasse, and sometimes k is used instead of c. These variations do not materially affect the sound. The question of spelling is to be settled by those who spell. The Indians had nothing to do with it.
The signature of the original Sachem was the outline of a long necked bird, or some- thing like it. Dr. Trumbull and Dr. Holmes both write the name Uncas, and this is probably as good authority as there is. The latter especially, is a remarkably correct antiquarian. The farther you go back, the greater diversity you will find. I am sorry that I can furnish you with nothing more decisive.
I am, with great regard,
Your friend and ob't serv't,
THOMAS DAY.

APPENDIX.
NEW HAVEN, August 17th, 1841.
DEAR SIR :
In reply to your letter of the 14th inst., I should say that the better way for you to adopt in engraving the name of the Indian Sachem on the monument, is to follow Dr. Trumbull, who uniformly wrote Uncas. Dr. Trumbull is our historian, and his orthog- raphy was probably adopted in consequence of the Doctor's finding that to be the most common.
Please to accept the respects of,
Sir, your ob't serv't,
NOAH WEBSTER.
G. L. PERKINS, EsQ.
NEW YORK, August 21st, 1841.
DEAR SIR :
Your favor of the 14th was received by me a few days ago, at Saratoga. I embrace the earliest moment after my return to the city, to reply; and yet I can do you but small service touching the subject of your inquiry. You appear to be in possession of most of the different names which the early writers assigned to Uncas ; and your opinion is as good, if not better, than mine, as to the orthography that ought to be selected for the proposed monumental inscription.
You refer to a copy of a decd in which the chieftain's name is written, On-kos. It has been thus printed in several of the early chronicles.
In the earlier years of his career, after his acquaintance with the English Colonists he was sometimes called Poquim, or Poquiam, as well as Uncas. There were several ways of spelling that first name ; and I have now before me, in print, these variations, viz .: Poquin, Poquim, Poquime, Poquiam, Poquoiam. There is extant a document, or treaty, executed jointly by Uncas and Miantonomoh, on the 2d of September, 1638, to which the signature of the Mohegan Chief was affixed thus :- " Poquiam, alias Unkas." This last mode of spelling it-Unkas-was adopted by Gookin, and also by the Rev. Mr. Fitch, the first minister in Norwich, as you may see by a letter from Mr. Fitch to General Gookin, contained in vol. I, Mass. Historical Coll.
Hubbard, who, as you know, wrote very early, spells it Uncas ; so also does Cotton Mather in the Magnalia Christi.
This orthography has been followed by all, or nearly all, the later authors, Trum- bull, Bancroft, and others.
You refer to the variations of the orthography found among the early writers, histo- rians, journalists, &c., &c., among whom you particularize Winthrop, as having writ- ten the name differently at different times. Such, undoubtedly, was the fact in all the Colonies. The Indians themselves had no written language; and the early writers, having no guides, noted down the names as best they could, from the sounds given by Indian artieulation. The names, moreover, were often so long, so crooked, and so uncouth, that the writers were often puzzled at one time to remember how they had written them at another. Hence the almost inextricable confusion in the matter of spelling Indian names, both of persons and places. In this State, we are worse off than yon are in New England, since we have to contend with the outlandish orthogra- phy manufactured by the Dutch, the French, and the English !
697
APPENDIX.
But I am writing quite too much. Were it in my power to obliterate all the written and printed records in which the name of Uncas appears, and create a simple orthog- raphy for it, I think I should write it ON-KOS. To my eye and ear, it looks and sounds like better Indian when written thus.
But under existing circumstances, I should accept the common orthography, and engrave it on the monument UNCAS.
Thus it is written in all our modern, and our best histories, and thus it will descend to posterity. I think it best, therefore, that the proposed inscription should conform to general usage.
I am, Sir, Very truly yours,
WILLIAM L. STONE. G. L. PERKINS, EsQ.
The letter from Mr. Fitch to General Gookin, referred to by Col. Stone, was written from Norwich, Nov. 20, 1674, and contains the following interesting passage :
" Since God hath called me to labour in this work among the Indians near to me, where indeed are the most considerable number of any in this colony, the first of my time was spent upon the Indians at Moheek [Mohegan] where Unkas and his son and Wanuho are sachems. These at first carried it teachably and tractably ; until at length the sachems did discern that religion would not consist with a mere receiving of the word ; and that practical religion will throw down their heathenish idols, and the sachems' tyrannical monarchy, and then the sachems did not only go away but drew off their people, some by flatteries and others by threatenings ; and they would not suffer them to give so much as an outward attendance to the ministry of the word of God. But at this time some few did show a willingness to attend. Therefore I began meetings with them about one year and a half since."
" And he that is chief among them, whose name is Weebax, hath learned so much that he is willing and able in some degree to be helpful in teaching and prayer to the others, on the Lord's day ; and this Weebax is of such a blameless conversation that his worst enemies and haters of religion cannot but speak well of his conversation ; and the same may be said concerning another, whose name is Tuhamon. The number of these Indians is now increased to above thirty."
