This short historical sketch is given for the benefit of those who have grown up since the war, that they may better know what the old veterans did to save our country and flag from the traitors' grasp.
Comrades of the grand old 12th lowa, veterans of twenty-three hard fought battles, behold that dear old dag again,
With its stars and its stripes, and the red white and blue, So dear to the heart of all loyal and true:
The banner of our Union, the flag of the brave and the free, On hilltop or in valley, or down by the sea.
In peace or in war, all hail to the flag of our country wherever it waves!

In Memoriam.
To the living, Cheerful Praises: To the dead, Bright flowers, Sweet Memories.
[As I recall these names, one by one, all of whom I remember so well, and one being my own brother, and think of the days when we were young, of prison pen, the awful carnage of battle, the march, the camp, I realize more than ever that these are the ties that bind us, the severance of which causes us to mourn when they depart. I find it im- possible to publish lengthy obituaries, all of them good. It seems impos- sible to cut them down; it seems like mutilating a tablet to their memory .- G. E. C. ]
HENRY SMITH, of Maquoketa, Iowa, and member of Co. I, died June 19, 1903 ( day of our reunion) aged 70 years. He was engaged in the plumbing business and had been a resident of Maquoketa for 40 years. Comrade Smith was a man of the highest character and as a citizen and business man of Maquoketa was held in high regard. He was a man of even temperament, always courteous. One more. old soldier of the 12th has passed over the line that divides time from eternity and is now with the silent Grand Army.
JOHN A. VAN ANDA, Fremont, Neb., was born in Mt. Vernon, Ohio, March 15, 1840, and died at his home in Fremont, Neb., July 10, 1903. In September, 1861 he enlisted in Co. 11, 12th lowa: taken prisoner at Shiloh and for over six months suffered in prison, resulting in shatter- ed health: discharged in 1863. When recuperated in health, re-enlisted in 44th lowa Inft. and served to the close of the war. One of his last re- quests was to be buried in his G. A R. uniform. He was a member of the M. E. church and for forty years an official member; belonged to the Centennial lodge 1. O. O. F., and MePherson post G. A. R., to both of which he was greatly attached. Possessed of a glorious hope of immor-
70

tality, he shrank not from a contemplation of death but. conversed freely thereon with a serenity known only to such as are ripe for the Kingdom. Ilis prayers, songs and testimonies all exhibited a fitness for the expected change. Toward the last he held up his bands to heaven, assisted by his devoted wife. And so, having served his generation as a christian, a sol- dier, a loving father and husband, and a citizen beloved by all, by the will of God he fell asleep.
CHARLES E. MERRIAM of Hopkinton, Iowa. Born in Princeton, Mass., Jan. 22, 1845; died Dec. 19, 1902. He enlisted when about seven- teen, September 1861 re-enlisting, and serving faithfully to the end of the struggle. Ile was among the number captured in "Hell's Hollow" at Shiloh; confined in prison at Montgomery, Ala., Macon, Ha., and Lib- by prison. He was wounded at Vicksburg, and again severely at Tupelo, Miss., July 14, 1861.
In civil life Mr. Merriam had served his community in almost every capacity. He was postmaster for sixteen years, being appointed under Grant's first term and serving under Hayes, Garfield and Arthur mmtil the "lection of Cleveland. He had served at various times on the council and as treasurer of the town, and was closely identified with the business interests and progress of Hopkinton.

CAPT. W. L. HENDERSON.
Another veteran bas gone to his reward, Captain Henderson of Cres- co, lowa, having been brought to Post ville cemetery where his father, mother and other relatives are buried. The remains and friends were met at the depot by the G. A. R. of Post ville and some of his own com- pany, Co. C, 12th Towa Inf. The following day funeral services took place at the Congregational church and were conducted by Rev. S. W. Pollard, who delivered a very fine address. "Gone to Rest," was very touchingly rendered. One of the most pathetic scenes, and one that would till the
71
TWELFTH IOW.1
soul with deepest emotion, was when his old comrades of Co. C surround- od the remains to take a fast farewell, while the chair sang sweetly, "God be with you till we meet again." Co. C was the company that Col. D. B. Henderson, brother of deceased, recruited and also enlisted with in '61, and among the comrades of that company present, acting as pall- bearers were Maj. D. W. Reed, Chicago; Hart Spears, Westgate; II. J. Grannis, of Randalia, and G. E. Comstock of Fayette, lowa. Mr. Gran- nis was color bearer of The regiment and the only one it ever had serving in that capacity over four years and who was in every engagement and on every march of the regiment. The flag carried by Comrade Grannis was draped over the casket with beautiful flowers. At The grave, upon removing that beautiful old war-worn banner, Maj. Reed pronounced, in behalf of his comrades, an enlogy in a few well chosen words. They were thrice beautiful because of their coming from a com- rade who knew the dead veteran so well.
Capt. W. 1. Henderson was born in Old Deer, Aberdeenshire, Scot- land, May 28, 1833. He came to America when 15 years old, and to Post - ville, Jowa, in 1850. He was married to Clara 3. burno March 27, 1850, and died at Ricoville, lowa, June 19, 1897, aged 61 years. He leaves a wife and four grown children, Frank 11., of South St. Paul, Minn; Judson 11., Riceville, la., Mrs. Mand Ramsey, of Racine, Wis., and and Mrs. Gussie Jolinson, of Lime Springs, lowa. Capt. Henderson was an excep- tional man, "the noblest work of God," because he was a strictly honest man. He had a pleasant smile for everybody, and as a husband and father was kind hearted. true and good. As a soldier he was one of the best. He was modest, retiring, unpretentious, yet persistent and firm as the rocks when his mind was settled upon the right of any subject upon which he gave study and thought. He enlisted in Co. C, 12th Infantry, Sept. 15, 1861, re-enlisted Dec. 25, 1863, and was mustered out Jan. 20, '66 All these years he rendered faithful services, participating in most of the engagements in which the regiment took part, some of which were Fort Donaldson, Shiloh, Vicksburg. Jackson, Nashville, Tupelo, Spanish Fort and Port Blakely.
And so they are "dropping from the ranks, one by one."
LIEU T .- COL. S G. KNEE, brevet colonel, was born in Martins- burg l'a., March 11, 1831. Moved to Deleware Co., la., in 1855. Enlisted in Co H. 12th lowa, Sept. 19, 1861. Mustered in as Ist Serp't; was pro- moted from time to time. Commanded the regiment from February, '65, to muster out, Jan. 20, 1866. He participated in the battles of Fort Henry, Fort Donaldson, Shiloh. Jackson, Vicksburg, Tupelo, Nashville, Spanish Port; confined in prison at Montgomery, Macon and Libby, at one time six months. Upon muster out he returned to Colesburg, lowa. where he engaged in mercantile pursuits, making a success of it. He died at his home August 13, 1896.
Colonel Knee was a prominent member of the Masonic and Odd Fel- lows fraternities. He was not a member of any church, but was an attendant upon the services of the Congregational society: was also a valued member of W. A. Morse post G. A. R., of Manchester, lowa. Ile was a firm and loyal friend, as he had been a brave and faithful soldier.

EIGHTH REUNION
FRANK W. COMSTOCK was born in Chicago, Ill., June 25, 1848. Enlisted in Co. C, 12th lowa, as a recruit, April 27, 1864, at the age of fifteen years. He was with us in the Pontotoc raid and battle of Tupelo. The extreme hot weather and marching was too much for one so young. Ile was sick a long time in the hospital at Memphis, Tenn. He never fully recovered. It was during the exposure of the compaigns that the germs of the disease which finally resulted in his death first found lodg- ment in his system. He was present at the Clermont reunion, being the first he was ever able to attend. He said he never enjoyed anything equal to it. Little did he think then that in two months from that time he would be with the Grand Army above, where so many of our comrades have gone, Loving hands fought hard, but at 11 o'clock Mon- day morning August 10, 1903, from hemorrhage of the stomach, he died very suddenly. In October, 1888, he was married to Miss Teressa Keil- hack, who cared for him as only a loving wife could, during his long ill- ness, which continued with more or less severity for the past five years.
"So let our heroes rest Upon your sunny breast ; Keep them, O South, our tender hearts and true; Keep them, O South, and learn to hold them dear From year to year! Never forget, Dying for us they died for you. This hallowed dust should knit us closer yet."
A Faithful Soldier Gone to Rest
SAMUEL, C. BECK was born in Clarion county, Pa., Sept. 22, 1838. At the time of his death at Waverly, Iowa, May 27, 1904, he was in his 66th year. When but a young man the family moved west, settling in Fayette county, lowa. in early life Mr. Beck purposed securing a thorough education. In keeping with this desire, he took advantage of the public school, and later became a student in the Upper Iowa Univer- sity at Fayette. In 1861 he responded to the call of his country, and leaving college he enlisted in Co. C, 12th lowa Inft. For three years he faced the dangers and endured the severe hardships of the civil strife. As a prisoner be spent seven months in Montgomery, Macon and Libby prisons. At the expiration of a term of three years service he was dis- charged on account of failing health. For a while the family and friends despaired of his life, but through the patient and umselfish efforts of his loved ones and friends, he was nursed back to health.
On the 11th of May, 1871, he was united in marriage to Mary Hursh of Waverly. They spent the first years of their married life on a farm in Fayette county. To them were born seven children: of these, Dor A., Cyrus, Bert, Elsie and Mrs. Patchin with the mother are lett to mourn. Nineteen years ago Comrade Beck with his family moved to Waverly where they have since resided. Mr. Beck was converted at 17 years of age and united with the M. E. church. He has been a faithful and consistent member for nearly fifty years. The funeral was conducted by Rev. Frank Cole, assisted by Rev. W. W. Smith.

CAPT. HIEL ILALL, of Co. D, was one of the original members of the company; was elected Second Lieutenant; promoted to First, and again to Captain, resigning Dec. 26, 1804.
I am without the details of his sickness and death. He died in March, 1903, in Theson, Ariz., where i understand he had gone for his health. Hle was a model soldier and officer, one of superior dignity and commanding presence, beloved by all who had the pleasure of his acquaintance.
GEN. A. J. SMITH died, from the effects of a paralytie stroke, July 30, 1897, at St. Louis, Mo., at the advanced age of eighty-two years. The end came peacefully in the presence of his wife. his only son, Wil- liam Beaumont Smith, Mrs. Edgar Miller and Mrs. W. T. Mason. The last named is a daughter of the late Col. Stephen Kearney, who was Gen. Smith's first commanding officer in the Mexican war. Mrs. Smith had stepped into the kitchen for a few minutes, and when she returned she found her husband unconscious. He never regained complete conscious- ness. At times he would have lucid periods during which he would talk about some of the battles in which he had participated. At of her times he would repeatedly call out for his son.
Gen. Smith was born in Bucks county, Pa., April 21, 1815, and named in honor of Andrew Jackson, who afterward, when president, gave him an appointment to West Point. His father was Gen. Samuel Smith, who served with distinction in the war of 1812, and his grandfather was Gen. Hugh Smith, who served under Washington in the American revolution. He was educated in Philadelphia and at West Point, and came west at an early age. Gen. Smith was stationed when a young lieutenant at Jefferson barracks, and while there met, wooed and married Miss Ann Mason Simpson, who survives him. Mrs. Smith was a daughter of the late Dr. Robert Simpson, who at the time of his death was said to be the oldest. American inhabitant at St. Louis.
Gen. Smith served in both the Mexican and civil wars. He was en- gaged in many battles, and was complimented and advanced in rank for valor at the battles of Pleasant Hill, La., and Tupelo, Miss., and other lieree engagements. In 1872 he was appointed postmaster at St. Louis, and five years later was elected city anditor. This position he lilled for twelve years, being elected every time he ran. Congress placed him on the retired list of army generals in 1889.
Reminiscences of Our Army Nurse, Mrs. Rebecca Otis, of Manchester, Iowa.
The following is condensed from an article written and published as a souvenir by her friend, Mrs. I. Eaton, of Manchester, Iowa:
The virtues of men and women have been related in song and story through all time. It is a notable sacrifice to devote the best part of one's life to administering to the wants of those fallen in battle for their country's honor. While woman's mission as a military nurse is a devel- opment of later civilization, the success of a good woman in this trying
74
EIGHTH REUNION
and difficult position, only proves how entirely she is to the manor born. To this army of healers belongs the subject of this sketch, who was with us once more at our Clermont reunion to gladden the hearts and renew the lives of "her boys," as well as to receive the congratulations of all present, who were only too glad to do her honor.
Mrs. Rebecca Ofis was a native of north Ireland, of Scotch descent. Born in 1826, she is now in her 78th year. Coming to America in her girlhood days, she drifted westward with the tide, finally settling in the little town of Manchester, lowa. When the war broke out, Mrs. Otis enlisted as an army nurse and her devoted services were given until the close of the war. Her great sympathy for suffering humanity, her kind and gentle tenderness, soon made the soldier feel that she was his friend. After she had administered to them several weeks, some of them asked the privilege to call her mother. She replied that she would be proud to be a mother to so many brave boys. And mother she was to all during her service in the hospital. Hers to cheer and comfort the wounded and homesick ones as they were brought in bleeding from the battlefield, and many times unto death. She remained by each one as he passed over the river, giving him words of comfort and solace. As mother and friend her work was not finished until she had procured and prepared proper clothing for buriel. When her day's work was ended and the other inmates of the hospital were preparing for rest, she was writing the home letters for her boys", writing as many as eleven in one evening; writing from dictation if they were able, and if not, composing the mes- sage which was to convey intelligence to mother, sister or sweetheart, as to the whereabouts and condition of their boy. Soon the letters came in that cheered and comforted the surviving ones. When the doctor had a patient who was past help for his remedies he would turn him over to Mrs. Otis and say: "Here, mother, you may prescribe for tlus one:"' and by her skillful nursing she offen saved their lives.
That Mrs. Otis has lived so many years since the trying scenes in the hospital, is the wonder of her friends. She has been most patient and kind through all her suffering and is now patiently awaiting the summons, "come up higher."
Who then can soothe even as a mother? She who is indeed a bero- inc, with her tender ministration, her lock so kind; her gentle voice: closing the eyes of those who wake no more: winning back to life and country those "half across the river."
"Whom the wounded bless.
For her tender care, And name as a saint.
In their evening prayer;
Kissing her shadow, did it fall
Across their pillows from off the wall."
