The writer is not aware that any soldier from this county lost his life in battle while a member of the Second Iowa Cavalry. More of Kossuth's soldiers died from disease, however, in that famous scouting regiment than in any other regiment in which her volunteers were enlisted.
LINCOLN MEMORIAL SERVICE
During the war the central places of meeting were at the town halls of Al- gona and Irvington. War meetings at these places were frequently held to con- sider the condition of the country and especially of the county. Eloquent ad- dresses were often delivered there by able citizens and foreign talent. Many

HISTORY OF KOSSUTH COUNTY
fond memories cluster around those early-day public halls. They are as sacred to the memory of the old settlers as are Faneuil and Independence halls to the whole American people.
The death of Lincoln was such an unparalleled event in national history that it called forth the highest oratorical powers in every city, hamlet and village in the North to express the wounded feelings of the people. In Algona, Rev. William Leggett, pastor of the Baptist church, was chosen to perform this solemn mission. He had a classical education and was the most fluent speaker that his community possessed. It is doubtful if the walls of the old hall ever echoed more lofty eloquence than on that April evening, in 1865. On the same evening at the Irvington hall, Dr. J. R. Armstrong speaking on the same sub- ject had an audience baptized in tears. Of his many other oratorical efforts during the war period, none compared with his eloquence on that occasion.
THE SANITARY FLAG
As the result of the patriotism manifested by our citizens during the closing years of the rebellion, this county became the proud possessor of an immense prize flag which is still preserved, and which is still dear to the hearts of the surviving settlers of the Civil war period. It has an interesting history of which all residents should be informed. It will be remembered that throughout the nation various sanitary commissions were organized, during those turbulent years, to procure food, medicine, bandages and other supplies for the relief of the sick and wounded soldiers. Besides this line of work the Christian Sanitary Commission distributed a vast amount of Christian literature in the camps and army hospitals.
In July, 1864, the Northwest Sanitary Commission held a fair at Dubuque for the purpose of raising funds and necessary articles for this worthy object. The state was divided into flag districts, each having an official head, known as vice president of the flag association. Lewis H. Smith was such an officer for this district. To incite citizens to a greater energy, the managers of the fair at Dubuque offered two unusually large flags as prizes. One was to be presented to the county contributing the greatest amount of funds and articles, and the other to the county contributing the greatest amount in proportion to the popula- tion. As this county was much less populated than many other counties in the state, its citizens could not hope to receive the prize under the first proposition. In their endeavor to capture the flag offered on the second proposition, our citi- zens prosecuted an exciting campaign. Young and old alike were energetic in contributing funds and supplies to be forwarded to Dubuque. The ladies parted with all the food supplies they could possibly spare, and a great deal more. The men sent money which was needed in the home. Even the children became much interested in the humane cause and donated their ten-cent pieces. The Algona students' club gave entertainments to raise funds, and Hon. J. E. Black- ford went along to address the audiences in order to enlist their sympathy in the movement. The only members of that club now residents of the county are Ed Blackford and Mrs. Jane Henderson Chapin, both of Algona.
Dr. M. C. Lathrop, a member of the first board of supervisors, located in the county a few years before the war. Soon after the opening of hostilities the

family moved away, the doctor to become the chief of a surgeons' corps in the army, and Mrs. Lathrop to become a member of the sanitary commissions. Being a lady of culture and refinement, she worked her way to the front, and in the work had intimate business relations with the noted Mary A. Livermore. She became much interested in the fair at Dubuque and longed to have her Kos- suth county friends win one of the flags. The contest closed, the money was counted and the supplies appraised. Then came the announcement that Kos- suth had won the flag offered on the second proposition. Following this came Mrs. Lathrop's letter :
Cedar Falls, October 29, 1864.
"Lewis H. Smith, Esq.
"Dear Sir : I have received by express the premium flag for Kossuth county. and by mail a letter from General Wiltze, requesting me to take the flag to your county and authorizing me to present it in behalf of the sanitary fair com- mission. It is a fine flag; one of which you will feel justly proud. You must get out all of your people, young and old, to witness the grand proceedings, when I shall-according to General Wiltze's directions-present the flag to you as vice president of the county for the state flag association. You can have your speech as grand as you please; mine will be 'Sanitary Commission.' I wish this to be an occasion of some importance for it is no small matter to go such a distance for such an object.
"I want by some means to awaken an enthusiasm in your people up there which will be creditable to you. I wish I could come up this next week, but must get off my vegetables, which I have collected for the army, previous to leaving. I can be ready to start from here Saturday night, November 5, and be at Fort Dodge so as to go up with Frank (Rist) Tuesday, November 8, or may go by private team from Webster City.
"Please let me find a letter at Webster City, stating what day the presentation will take place, or it may make some difference in my time of getting there if I should go by private team. I think I shall come with Frank, but may not.
"Yours very truly, "MRS. E. S. LATHROP."
By agreement Mrs. Lathrop arrived with the prize flag November 8, 1864, the very day on which Lincoln was elected the second time. The presentation took place that evening at the town hall in the presence of a delighted assembly. In her address, Mrs. Lathrop told about the grand work the sanitary commis- sion had been doing, and particularly about the sanitary fair at Dubuque. After congratulating the people for winning the prize, she presented it to the county on behalf of the fair managers. Owing to Mr. Smith's absence the response for the county was made by Judge Call in brief but appropriate remarks.
The first time the flag was displayed, after that event, was in the same hall on the occasion of Rev. William Leggett's Lincoln memorial address. For years it was used at times by the various societies for decorative purposes on special occasions, and occasionally it floated from some mast. It was too large, however, to be used on any staff. When it was observed that the ends had begun to fray, the old settlers were heard to complain, and to express a wish that the

sacred treasure might be stored away as a relic for safe keeping. It was then deposited in one of the bank vaults, but as no one seemed to have the right to control its custody, it was frequently taken out and used to decorate on festive occasions. For several years it was lost and its hiding place could not be dis- covered, though many searched for it at various times. The members of the board of supervisors, not having lived here during the war, knew but little about its history and did not feel called upon to exercise exclusive control over it, especially when it was wanted by those who had lived much longer in the county than they. It was a debatable question with many whether it had been made a gift to the county to be controlled by the board, or whether it belonged to the people at large to dictate who should be the custodian. When it was rescued from its hiding place it was then deposited in the vault in the auditor's office. At the county's great jubilee celebration, in the fall of 1904, it was placed upon the speaker's stand and then it seemed to disappear again. Several hunted for it in vain. As it could not be located in any of the bank vaults or in the G. A. R. hall, every vault in the courthouse was searched and the basement rooms in- vaded for that purpose. Finally the author discovered it beneath a pile of papers in the vault of the auditor's office, tied up in a sack. As the board was then in session he took it up before that honorable body, gave a brief history of the relic. and then urged that a resolution be passed conferring upon the County Historical Society the right to exercise exclusive control over the flag. The members then passed the following resolution :
"Whereas it has come to the knowledge of the board of supervisors that the historic Sanitary Flag which was presented to the county during the closing months of the Civil war for having contributed more money for the relief of the sick and wounded soldiers than any other county in the state in proportion to population, is becoming ragged and worn for want of a suitable place to keep the same, therefore, be it resolved, that the care and custody of the flag henceforth shall be with the Kossuth County Historical Society, to be always kept in a fire proof building."
The words "Sanitary Flag" were painted on the flag by Will H. Reed, by direction of R. W. McGetchie while the latter was county auditor so that the old relic could be more easily identified in case of its disappearance again.
THE CIVIL WAR VETERANS
Data for compiling a complete list of all residents in the county who wore the blue in defense of the stars and stripes, at any time during the Civil war, is not available and cannot be easily obtained. It is to be regretted that such a list cannot be compiled for this publication. All resident veterans are entitled to have their names enrolled on the pages of Kossuth County History, regardless of where they were living at the time of enlistment. Formerly the law required the auditor to compile such lists and send them to the adjutant-general, but that law has long since been changed. The last list so compiled, that is available, was made while C. B. Hutchins was auditor. No doubt hundreds of veterans have become residents since that time whose names, consequently, are not on that list. Moreover many of the names are those of old soldiers who are now deceased. The Republican published the list June 24, 1885. and it is at follows:
