"Fifth. Each family living in the town of Nobles- ville shall be allowed $1.00 per month until the first day of May, 1862, for wood, and fifty cents per month there-

after; and each family living in any other town in the county shall be allowed per month for wood the sum of seventy-five cents until the first of May, 1862, and forty cents per month thereafter.


"Sixth. No allowance shall be allowed to the fam- ily of any commissioned officer in the army, but to private soldiers alone.


"Seventh. Allowances to continue to the families of those killed or disabled in battle, but not to those discharged."


At the June term, 1862, of the Commissioners' Court, $1,346.35 was allowed for the relief of soldiers' families. At a special session of the court held in July, 1862, the allowance to each soldier's wife was increased to $1.00 per week, and each child under twelve years of age fifty cents per week. At a special session of the court held in August, 1862, a tax levy of 15 cents on each $100 of taxable property, for military purposes, was ordered.


From this time to the close of the war money was poured out lavishly for the support of those dependent on the soldiers of Hamilton County, and they knew that the loved ones at home were being tenderly cared for.


A statement of the allowances made at each term of the court would simply increase the length of this chap- ter, and it is sufficient to say that Hamilton County paid for the relief of soldiers' families during the war the

sum of $111,625.75, and paid to volunteers and re- cruits as bounties $245,000. In addition to these large amounts, a very large amount was paid in various ways to the sanitary commissioners. How much that was there is no possible way of determining. The payments for relief to soldiers' families were continued until De- cember, 1866, at which time $562 was allowed, and that appears to be the last.


In addition to what had been done during the war for the soldiers and their families, the board decided to perpetuate the names of all that went into the service from the county by the erection of a monument that should bear the names of the living as well as the dead. This monument stands on the highest and most con- spicuous spot in the cemetery at Noblesville. The mon- ument was erected at a cost of $15,000.


The following is a list of the names of soldiers from Hamilton County, compiled as accurately as possible from all available sources. It must be remembered, however, that the records kept at that time were in- complete and in some respects inaccurate, while the various re-enlistments from shorter to longer periods of service and in different regiments often renders the military service of the soldier difficult to trace :
