The year 1863 was the most discouraging for the Union cause of all the years of the war. Its influence was felt in La Grange County, but not to so great an extent as in other parts of the country. The differences between the parties

widened, and bitterness of feeling was somewhat increased. A Union mass meet- ing was held at the court house February 21, Col. Jonathan Edgecomb, of Lima, President, with A. B. Kennedy and C. O. Myers, Secretaries. The mect- ing was addressed by Col. Charles Case, in strong and eloquent words. The Committee on Resolutions, A. S. Case, Rufus Patch, Dr. A. M. Spaulding, George Lotterer, J. M. Flagg and L. L. Wildman, reported a series of long resolutions, condemning secession, every scheme and intrigue to impair the confidence of the people in the administration, declaring in favor of confisca- tion of the property of those in armed rebellion, and of those who gave aid and comfort to it ; approving the emancipation proclamation as a military neces- sity, and the arming of liberated slaves ; expressing admiration of the soldiers in the field, and heartily indorsing Gov. O. P. Morton. The seventh resolution was as follows :
Resolved, That for the purpose and to the end of restoring our country to its former position of prosperity and greatness, we are ready to postpone every .consideration which provides for political party triumphs, until the Union is restored-the rebellion is crushed by the power of the Government it has defied ; and to this end we do hereby pledge ourselves, individually and collectively, by our love of country, by our love of liberty, for the sake of ourselves and poster- ity, in the name of our venerated ancestors, in the name of the human family, deeply interested in the trust committed to our hands, by all the past glory we have won, by all that awaits us as a nation, if we are true to ourselves, true to the principles of justice and humanity, and true and faithful in gratitude to Him who has hitherto so signally blessed us, to stand firmly by the Constitution and the Union, never wavering, never faltering; that we will cherish with a deep and abiding love and affection the sentiments of Massachusetts' immortal statesman, that senti- ment dear to every true American heart, "Liberty and Union, now and forever, one and insep- arable. "
On the 28th of February, a Democratic mass meeting was held at La Grange, at which Francis Henry presided, and G. W. Weyburn and A. Cone acted as Secretaries, and A. Ellison, Hawley Peck, John A. Bartlett, William Roderick, James Kennedy, Harvey Olmstead and John Kromer acted as Com- mittee on Kesolutions. This meeting was addressed by Hon. J. R. Edgerton, then Member of Congress for the district. The resolutions reported and adopt- ed denounced the heresy of secession, favored the inauguration of such action honorable alike to contending sections as will stop the ravages of war, avert uni- versal bankruptcy, and unite all the States upon terms of equality, " as mem- bers of one confederacy," condemned the action of the Federal Government in suspending the habeas corpus, arresting of citizens not subject to military duty without warrant or authority, abridging the freedom of speech and of the press, establishing of a system of espionage by a secret police, declaring martial law over States not in rebellion, attempting to enforce a compensated emancipation, dismembering Virginia ; and expressed sympathy for the soldiers who enlisted to sustain the Constitution and the Union, and condemned all frauds that de- prived them of "proper food, raiment and clothing."
Another Union Mass meeting was held at La Grange April 22, in which were passed resolutions strongly condemnatory of the " traitorous conduct " of

a portion of the Indiana Legislature, and all factions opposed to the Federal and State authorities. Col. Hawkins, of Tennessee, spoke at this meeting, and Dr. A. M. Spaulding presided.
There was but little volunteering this summer. The agitation was no less, but rather greater and more serious, but not of the kind that greatly promoted enlistments. Frequent Union meetings were held in different parts of the county. Toward fall, active recruiting commenced again. John Q. Reed en- listed a number of men for the Seventh Cavalry, and David Bennett commenced raising a company for the One Hundred and Twenty-ninth Indiana Infantry, which he had mustered in December 16. Hon. J. P. Jones, an old resident of the county, who had been elected Clerk of the Supreme Court in 1860, returned and assisted in addressing the meetings and promoting enlistments.
The year 1864 opened more cheerfully ; many veteran soldiers who had re-enlisted returned home on a month's furlough, and materially aided in in- creasing the enthusiasm for the Union cause. A mass meeting was held at La Grange February 13, expressing unabated determination to continue the fight. The number of men remaining in the several townships enrolled for military service, and the number due from each, in February, was reported as follows :

Lieut. Daniel Lieb recruited a number of men for the Twelfth Indiana Cavalry early in this year.
To encourage enlistments, considerable amounts were raised in the several townships, voluntarily, as township bounty. In August, the draft officers reported 202 men due. A draft soon followed, but how many men were ob- tained we have not been able to ascertain. The enlistments this year from the county was almost wholly recruiting for old companies. No new organiza- tions were made. Dr. Edward B. Speed, of La Grange, an estimable man and good physician, was appointed Assistant Surgeon for the Forty-fourth Indiana Volunteers, in July, and immediately joined that command at Chatta- nooga, Tenn. While on the way, he underwent a severe shock from a railroad accident, and was taken sick soon after his arrival. He died in the officers' hospital, at Lookout Mountain, September 14.
Under the December call, 1864, by the President, for " 300,000 more," La Grange County was asked to contribute 191. The County Commissioners, in Jan-

uary, 1865, ordered a county bounty of $400 to be paid every volunteer who should thereafter be accredited to the county, to be paid in two installments, $200 in fourteen months, and $200 in twenty-eight months, for the payment of which county bonds were issued. This action was subsequently endorsed by a mass meeting at La Grange, February 3, 1865. In addition to this county bounty, the townships raised a large amount to induce volunteers, and save them from the draft. John H. Caton was commissioned Second Lieutenant and recruiting officer to raise a company in the county. This company was speedily raised and all mustered in during the month of February. It was officered by the election of John H. Caton, Captain ; William Hobson, First Lieutenant; and A. Bennett, Second Lieutenant. The company became Com- pany F, One Hundred and Fifty-second Regiment. These were the last enlist- ments in the county for the rebellion.
In April came the joyful news of the surrender of Gen. Lee at Appomat- tox, which was received with a wonderful joy, and such an abandon of rejoic- ing and bonfiring and general reckless noisiness followed for a day or two, as has never since been seen or felt in the country. Hardly had the people real- ized what they were rejoicing for, when the news came in the evening of the 14th of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. Then no mark of sorrow seemed too mournful, and a sincere grief was the last link which was formed in that " heroic age" to bind together those who had worked or watched and prayed for America.
Since the rebellion, La Grange has sent one brave officer into the National army-Lieut. Samuel A. Cherry. Mr. Cherry entered the West Point Acad- emy during Grant's first Administration, and, after graduation, entered the serv- ice, where he had a brief, but brilliant career, ended by a tragic death on the plains. He was a gentleman of many accomplishments, beloved at home, and popular in society circles throughout the country. At the time of his death, he was betrothed to a daughter of Hon. Harry White, of Indiana, Penn. The following order, issued by Col. Merritt, contains a brief sketch of Lieut. Cherry's services :
HEADQUARTERS FIFTH U. S. CAVALRY, FT. LARAMIE, W. T., May 17, 1881.
It is the sad duty of the Commanding Officer of the Fifth Cavalry to announce the sudden death of a brilliant young officer of the regiment. Lieut. S. A. Cherry was killed while on duty pursuing a party of outlaws, some twenty-five miles north of Fort Niobrara, by a man of his own detachment, who, it is supposed, was temporarily insane. This is the only reasonable solution of the crime, with the information now possessed.
Lieut. Cherry was born in Indiana; graduated at the Military Academy in 1875, and was promoted to be Second Lieutenant in the Twenty-third Infantry, from which regiment he was transferred to the Fifth Cavalry in 1876. He reported to his Regimental Commander in the Black Hills, October, 1876, in the latter part of the Sioux campaign of that year, and since that time he has served with the regiment with unfrequent interruptions, until the time of his death. He was particularly distinguished for cool courage, and distinguished ability in the face of an enemy at the battle and subsequent siege of Maj. Thornburg's command, at Milk River, Colo., in 1879, for which he received honorable mention in orders, and a vote of thanks of the Terri- torial Legislature of Wyoming. The cureer of Lieut. Cherry, though brief, has been most honor-

able, and marked by a cheerful, vigorous and soldierly discharge of duty. His character was most free from defects. He made warm friends of all who knew him well, and it is certain he never gave cause for the enmity of any one. He was positive, though happy in disposition as a man, loyal and devoted as a friend, brave, capable and chivalrous as an officer-one, in short, whose sad death will long be felt in the regiment as an irreparable loss in every way. As a mark of respect, the guidon of the company with which he served will be draped for thirty days, and the officers of the regiment will wear the usual badge of mourning for the same period.
By order of
COL. WESLEY MERRITT.

HISTORY OF LA GRANGE COUNTY.
If our space would permit, we would be pleased to record the name of every soldier who enlisted from this county, in the service of his country dur- ing the rebellion. This not being practicable, it may not be improper to give the names of those who attained to official position, and their rank. With few exceptions, all these entered the service as privates. It will be seen that the county is entirely destitute of Colonels and Brigadier Generals, a somewhat ex- ceptionable condition. But the county having filled the ranks with good fight- ing men to an honorable extent, the lack of Brigadiers is not sorely felt.

THE ROLL OF HONOR.
On giving this list, we beg our readers to remember that it is compiled from the Adjutant General's Report of the State, and includes only those reported on the muster rolls as having been killed or having died while IN the service. There are many who died soon after discharge, and have since died of disease contracted in the service, who would worthily be entitled to place in the list, but there is no official record of these, and it is impossible to obtain all their names :
James Alward, Thirtieth Indiana, died ; Jacob Airgood, Seventy-fourth Indiana, died ; Reuben Allspaugh, One Hundredth Indiana, died.
John L. Baugher, Thirtieth Indiana, died ; John A. Bevington, Twenty- first Indiana, killed ; John Burridge, Forty-fourth Indiana, died of wounds ;
