HISTORY OF CLINTON COUNTY.


" That each Supervisor be and is hereby appointed a committee to provide relief in his township to the destitute family of any volunteer who is now or may be engaged in the military service of the State or the United States."


This was continued throughout the war, being broadened in its scope at the September session, 1862, to include the needy families of those who had died in the service as well as those serving.


On the 11th of August, 1862, the Supervisors, or a majority of them, informally pledged a bounty of $75 to each volunteer who had entered the service prior to that time; and, at the September session, the matter being brought up for official action, it was found that this could not be legally done. The Board immediately prepared a memorial to the Legislature, then in session at Des Moines, praying for proper legislation to permit the granting of such bounty and dispatched one of their number to urge its immediate passage, and. at the October term, the provisions of the resolutions were extended to include the soldiers of the Twenty-sixth Regiment, which had just taken the field, and passed. About $75,000 were disbursed under this resolution.


In January, 1864, a new stand of colors were voted to the Twenty-sixth Regiment by the Board with appropriate resolutions.


It does not come within the province of this work to write of the history of the companies or of the Clinton County Regiment during their service. Suffice it to say that on many a well-fought field the brave soldiers who went from Clinton County honored their State and their county, and made a glorious record for organized and individual bravery, while hundreds laid down their lives in defense of their country's flag.


Fourteen years have passed since the last foe laid down his arms ; the great armies disappeared like the morning dew, and to-day we meet all about us engaged in the quiet avocations of merchant, professional man, husbandman and mechanic, men who have passed unflinchingly through more terrific scenes of carnage than veterans of historic time and received more terrible baptisms of shot and shell than Napoleon's " Old Guard." The weeds of the widow, mother and daughter have well-nigh disappeared, yet thousands of hearts still hold enshrined the memory of those of their household, who sleep in a soldier's grave in cemetery or unmarked trench on Southern battle-fields.


"On Fame's eternal camping-ground Their snowy tents are spread,


And glory guards with solemn round The bivouac of the dead."
