Many of the brave volunteers represented by the names herein quoted sleep the sleep that knows no waking, in unmarked graves ; but their memories live in grateful hearts. The war ended, and peace restored, those of them who were spared to see the army of the Union victorious returned to their homes to receive grand ovations and tributes of honor from friends and neighbors who had eagerly and zealously followed them wherever the fortunes of war called. Exchanging their soldiers' uniforms for citizens' dress, most of them fell back to their old avocations-on the farm, at the forge, the bench, in the shop, and at whatever else their hands found to do. Brave men are honorable always, and no class of citizens are entitled to greater respect than the volunteer soldiery of Lee County, not alone because they were soldiers, but because in their asso- ciations with their fellow-men their walk is upright and their character and honesty without reproach.


"Their country first, their glory and their pride ; Land of their hopes-land where their fathers died ; When in the right, they'll keep their honor bright ; When in the wrong, they'll die to set it right."


FORT MADISON.


The city of Fort Madison derives its name from the fort and trading-place of that name. It has been maintained by some that the fort was built by the late President Taylor, while he was a Lieutenant in the regular army, but this claim being subject to controversy, the writer addressed a letter of inquiry to the Secretary of War, George W. McCrary, who wrote in reply :


WAR DEPARTMENT, WASHINGTON CITY, February 19, 1879.


Sir : In reply to your letter of the 14th of December, 1878, making inquiries in regard to certain abandoned forts, I would respectfully state that the following report of the Adjutant General contains all of the information desired that the Department is able to furnish :


" Fort Madison, Iowa, erected by Lieut. Z. M. Pike, 1st Infantry, in 1805.


" Fort Des Moines, Lowa, established September 25, 1834, by Lieut. Col. Kearney, Dragoons.


" Fort Edwards, Illinois, established 1814. First return on file, March, 1822, Bvt. Maj. M. Marston, 5th Infantry, commanding. Abandoned July, 1824."


Very respectfully, your obedient servant, G. W. MCCRARY, Secretary of War.


The name Madison is believed to have been given in honor of James Mad- ison, at that time a prominent politician, and afterward President of the United States. The name was particularly applied to the fort, while the trading-house was called Le Moine Factory. Col. John W. Johnson was the first factor. His first shipment of merchandise was received August 23, 1808. It came from Belle Fontaine Factory, and was invoiced at $14,715.99. These goods were exchanged with the Indians for skins, furs, etc., which at that early day brought small prices compared with the present. March 28, 1809, Col. Johnson credits the factory with peltries, etc., as follows :
