But the same paper, in August, 1861, said:
" What we most wish is the present and future sacred observ- ance of the Constitution. We are strong enough to maintain the Union and the Constitution, too. What is past cannot be remedied, and we need not stop at present to discuss. We are in the midst of war-a war begun by reckless rebels at Charleston. The Presi- dent had lawful power to call out troops to serve until thirty days after the meeting of Congress. He did so, and we urged the en- listment of troops. The capital was in danger, and its capture by the Confederates would have curtailed on us everlasting disgrace and incalculable evils.
"Since then other acts have been done by the Executive, which we could not approve. But let them pass, and let ns look at mat- ters as they now stand. Congress has authorized the raising of troops, and the capital is probably at this moment in greater dan- ger than ever before. What is to be done? Why, troops must be raised at once for its defense and for the preservation of the Union. We hold it to be the duty of every loyal citizen to do all in his power to aid the speedy enlistment of troops, and accordingly we have exerted all our influence to this end, although bitterly de- nounced therefor by some misguided friend. But at the same time that we would do all in our power to increase our power to meet the present exigency-and while [we invoke all patriotic young men who can possibly leave home to enlist at once in some of the regiments now recuiting, and to rush to the rescue of our country's flag, we also would extend the olive branch with one hand, while keeping the sword firmly grasped in the other."

And again :
"Our nation is now passing its fiery ordeal. It will come from the contest a power among the nations, or it will sink to a disunited conglommeration of petty States. Nothing so vital to every citizen can be conceived as the decision of the question, Have we a Gov- enment? Shall we maintain it intact despite domestic dissension and foreign intervention? To fail would be to sink millions of property as well as to cover the face of each patriot with chagrin, and to ruin the hope of a Government like ours ever becoming per- manent.
"But we know no such word as fail. Sooner than this, the loyal States would see twice 500,000 more brave men spring to the aid of the gallant army who are now winning laurels upon the field, and who are fast regaining our soil from the grasp of the traitors."
And in August, 1862:
" It is truly gratifying to know that this county can show so proud a record-prouder than any other county of its size and population in the State-in the cause of the Government. Her page in the history of this revolution will shine bright among the brightest, her name live forever. When the present companies forming under the late calls go into camp, which they will have done before this item reaches our readers, De Kalb County will have sent out six full companies, and enough men have gone out of the county and enlisted to number at least two more, making in all eight companies, or 808 men. And yet if the Government had not seen fit to stop enlistments she could have turned out more men. The fact is, the people of little De Kalb are a Union, a loyal people. They desire to see the rebellion put down, the Constitution preserved and the glorious old Union restored. For this purpose they are sacrificing their lives and their means, and for this object they will toil, if necessary, to the bitter end."
LOYAL MEETINGS.
The enthusiastic spirit of loyalty did not die away in a few weeks or months. Recruiting went on throughout the war with- out cessation, and the soldiers in the field were constantly sus- tained by the uncompromising supporters of the Union who were obliged to stay at home. Frequent meetings of the people gave expression to this sentiment. Even in 1863, the darkest year of the war, when the rebels' chances of success seemed improving, loyal meetings were held in nearly every village and district

school-house in De Kalb County. As a sample, we extract from the proceedings of one held at the Methodist church Anburn Feb. 20, 1863:
The meeting was called to order by Rev. S. W. Widney, and Captain L. J. Blair, of the Eighty-eighth Indiana Infantry, was chosen President; Captain F. F. Smith, of the United States Navy, was selected Secretary, and the following were named as Vice-Presidents: Captain Cyrus Hawley, Corporal J. McMillen and Lieutenant James McKay, of the Thirtieth Indiana; Solomon Delong, R. Lockwood, L. Hoodlemire, I. Ditmars, J. Hoffman and J. Link, of the Forty-fourth Indiana; C. Carr, of the For t eighth Indiana; A. McClellan, of the Fifty-second Illinois; and William Fisher, of the Seventeenth Michigan.
Dr. J. N. Chamberlain, Rev. S. W. Widney and John McCune were appointed a Committee on Resolutions, and while they were maturing a report W. S. Smith, of Fort Wayne, addressed the meeting in an eloquent and argumentative manner, with telling effect. The following spirited resolutions were then reported by the committee, and enthusiastically adopted:
WHEREAS, Since the commencement of the present infamous rebellion against the Government of the United States every reasonable means of conciliation has been used by the Govern- ment, so far as national honor would at all admit; and
WHEREAS, The President of the United States thoroughly tried the Border-State policy of non-interference with the institution of slavery, which the rebels boast of as the corner-stone of their so- called Confederacy, and found that the more than 3,000,000 slaves of the rebels were continually used to furnish supplies for, and do the hard work of the Rebellion; and even in some instances (so far as they dare trust arms in their hands) to help murder our gallant soldiers and the Union men in the rebellious States; and
WHEREAS, The Chief Magistrate of our Nation and the Congress of these United States have found it necessary, at length, after giving fair warning to the rebels, to take this weapon used against us out of their hands; therefore
Resolved, 1st-That we cordially endorse the policy of the Ad- ministration in using every means consistent with civilized war- fare to erush out this wicked rebellion as speedily as possible.
Resolved, 2d-That we are willing to make every sacrifice, personal and pecuniary, to sustain the armies in the field, so nobly fighting for our national Government and its existence.
22
342
HISTORY OF DE KALB COUNTY.
Resolved, 3d-That we feel a patriotic pride in contemplating the achievements of the armies of the Union, in driving back the rebels from Maryland, Western Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri and Tennessee, and in taking possession of so many important points on the sea-coast of the rebel States; and we are especially proud of the gallant boys of our own State, who have never failed on any battle-field.
Resolved, 4th-That while we render heartfelt thanks to our surviving soldiery, and while we will honor them as long as they live, we also mourn the many noble hearts, once beating with high patriotism that are now still in death. Their memories will always be hallowed.
Resolved, 5th-That we sincerely thank those heroes and heroines among us who have given up husbands, sons, brothers and friends at the call of our country; and especially do we sym- pathize with those that mourn the loss of those loved ones, fallen honorably in their country's cause.
These resolutions were published in the Chicago Tribune, Indiana State Journal, and the Waterloo City Press; they were also adopted in substance or verbatim by meetings subsequently held in several of the townships. Democrats joined with Re- publicans in supporting the Government; for the former felt no sympathy with those professing the same party name at the Sunth. In De Kalb County there was but one party, the Union party.
MEETING AT SPENCERVILLE.
At a meeting of the citizens of Concord Township and its vicinity, without respect to former party position, to take into consideration the state of the country and to express opinion thereon, George Barney was called to the chair, and John F. Coburn chosen Secretary.
On motion, a committee of three, consisting of John P. Widney, Newton Thomas, and Newton Arkew, were selected to draft resolutions. After they had retired, " Yankee Doodle" was played by the band, and then an address, thrilling and patriotic, was delivered by Robert Johnson, followed by music and other proceedings, until the committee reappeared, and made their re- port by presenting the following preamble and resolutions:
WHEREAS, Insurrection and civil war now exist within our borders, States hitherto loyal and patriotic have, with the most

singular infatuation, raised the standard of rebellion against the constitutional authorities of the Federal Government; and
WHEREAS, It is right and proper that not only States, but neighborhoods, should, in unmistakable terms, define their position, and with promptitude say whether they favor the cause of traitors or whether they have sufficient patriotism to stand by and defend the Constitution and the Union; therefore
Resolved, That we, throwing aside all party predilections, sym- pathize with the efforts of onr Federal executive in putting down the present rebellion, and that we will co-operate with and sustain him in retaking and protecting the public property.
2. Resolved, That we feel called upon by every tie that can bind a citizen to his country, and by every means within our reach, not excepting our personal services in the battle-field, to labor to transmit to our children the glorious fabric of civil government bequeathed to us by our ancestors.
The report was accepted, and the resolutions adopted. After discussion, the following additional resolution was adopted:
Resolved, That we distinctly repudiate the right of secession as claimed by a portion of the States; that our Federal Government is a government of the whole people, and not a mere federation of States, and that with the powers conferred by the Constitution on the Federal Government, that Government is as full, ample, and complete as thie several State Governments; and that a State can no more secede from the Federal than a county can from a State Government.
After which proceedings, the roll of a company of minute-men was presented, and the people called upon to enlist in their country's cause.
DRAFTING.
During the last two years of the war, voluntary enlistments were not sufficient to fill the quota of the county, and drafts were resorted to. These drafts were cheerfully submitted to, though they often wrought hardship in families who could ill afford to lose their working members. There was a humorous side to the proceedings, too, and they generally brought to notice an un- expectedly large number of invalids and disabled men. The following, from the New Era of August, 1861, portrays one of the drafting scenes as follows:
" Last Tuesday was the day appointed by the Militia Enrolling
34
HISTORY OF DE KALB COUNTY.
Commissioner for this county ' to hear and determine the excuses persons claiming to be exempt from military duty.' The morning opened out brightly, and at an early hour in the day the debilitated came pouring into town in wagons, on horse-back, and by every conceivable mode of conveyance, until the streets were literally packed with the lame, the halt and the blind. To the eye of the stranger it would seem that the Government had located a military hospital at this point, and that the battle-scarred veterans of the present crisis had come here to receive the care and attention due the brave soldier of the bloody field. The sight was painful to be- hold, and the most hardened wretch could not do otherwise than blow his nose and weep. We passed more than one philanthropic ' cuss' on the street that day, with eyes swollen from excessive weep- ing, and out from beneath whose coat there plainly protruded the neck of a bottle. It would not have taken long to have recruited men enough for the Crutch Brigade out of the crowd, and officered the same by Old Age and General Debility. The ' menagerie' will be continued on next Monday."
Wilmington, Stafford, and Newville townships were never bronght under the draft, as they furnished their full quotas by vol- untary enlistment. The number drafted in Troy Township was eight; Franklin, twenty-two; Richland, forty-one; Union, two; Jack- son, twelve; Butler, eight; Concord, one; Smithfield, twenty-five; Fairfield, thirty; total in county, 149.
During the war the county paid in bonnties to volunteers $126,- 600.50, and the townships expended for the same purpose $12,600. The county also gave in the way of relief to soldier's families $22,481.63; and the townships. $2,000. Thus a total of $163, 682 .- 63 was officially expended in this county because of the war.
ROLL OF HONOR.
Nothing in the history of De Kalb County is more worthy of preservation than the personal record of those who placed their lives at the disposal of the Government. The following list, com- piled with some difficulty, is as nearly complete as it can be made from the published reports of the Adjutant-General of the State. It is intended to give, under the appropriate regiments and com- panies, the name of every soldier from De Kalb County, rank, date of muster in, promotion and date of muster out-above all. what became of them ; whether died, discharged, captured, or other- wise lost or disposed of.
