from year to year, but his duties have been principally to serve the notices required by law in such cases.
BOYS' CORN CLUB.
During the winter of 1906-7 steps were taken by the county superin- tendent of schools to organize a boys' corn chib. In the spring a quart of good high grade seed was offered to each boy and a hundred or more boys entered the contest. The business men offered a number of valuable prizes. Among them were: Thomas & Son. riding cultivator. $25: Spot Cash, suit oi clothes, $15: J. Ward Walker, suit of clothing. $15: J. W. Cooper, double- barrel shotgun, pair of skates, game of carom, hand printing press : Hancock Democrat. $15 in cash: Greenfield Republican, magazine or journals, one year's subscription : Greenfield Publishing Company, magazine or journal, one year's subscription : W. S. Fries, $5 in cash: George Walker. $5 in cash : Cuyler studio, one dozen $6 photographs: Service & Rogers, pair of Walk- Over shoes: Greenfield Star store, rain coat; J. G. Heath, SI.25 pocket knife : ยท William M. Lewis book store, $1.25 book.
On the Friday and Saturday following Thanksgiving a corn show was held at the court house at Greenfield. Prof. M. L. Fisher, of Purdue Uni- versity, scored the corn and on his decision the premiums were awarded. The club was maintained for about four years by County Superintendent Larra- bee, in conjunction with the farmers' institute. There was a general interest in the club among the boys, but it was finally discontinued because of a general lack of interest in the organization by the farmers' institute and the difficulty of financing it.
VOCATIONAL WORK.
The legislature of 1913 passed a bill introducing vocational work in the public schools of the state. The MeCordsville school at once introduced the work in manual training and domestic science. All the other township schools introduced the work in agriculture and domestic science. The teachers. of course, did not pretend to know much about these subjects, but by far the greater number of them have made a bona fide effort to accomplish some- thing along these lines during the past two years.
For the work in agriculture text books were adopted in both the grades and high schools, and such experimental work was done as was possible. . \ similar plan was adopted in teaching domestic science. The theories under- lying different processes were discussed and the pupils were encouraged to experiment at home. . At the opening of the schools in 1914, however, a

much greater equipment was supplied, especially in the consolidated schools. For most of these schools a sufficient equipment was provided to enable the pupils to experiment under the direction of the teacher. During the term of 1914-15 one or more dinners were also served by the domestic science classes in most of the schools on special occasions, and the guests especially were impressed with the importance of this new departure in school work.
PARENT-TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION.
There has been organized within the county one Parent-Teachers' Associ- ation. On Tuesday evening, December 1, 1914. the parents and teachers of the Charlottesville schools met at the high school building for the purpose of organizing such an association. The following officers were elected : Presi- dent, Mrs. Wilbor Wright : secretary, Miss Mina Overman; program com- mittee, Mrs. Albert Luse, Mrs. Anna Niles and Mrs. Cynthia Peacock. Those present at that meeting were : Mrs. Wilbor Wright, Mrs. Albert Luse, Mrs. Oscar Adkins, Miss Ruth Reeves, Mrs. Roy Lowe. Mrs. Clarence Haskett, Mrs. Percy Bantz. Mr. Lawrence Cox, Miss Katherine Rutledge, Mrs. Cynthia Peacock, Miss Mina Overman, Mr. Walter Orr. Mr. and Mrs. John Walker. and Mr. and Mrs. Charles Ramsey.
Regular meetings of the association have been held in connection with the Jackson township institute, at the afternoon sessions on the first Saturday of each month.
The subjects that have been considered during the winter are: "Habits, Manners and Morals of the Child." "When and How to Appreciate the Child." "Why Should Our Children be Given Manual Training and Domestic Science When Our Fathers and Mothers Did Not Receive Such Training?" "Con- jidential Relation of Mother and Son," "Efficiency in the School Room," and "Efficiency in the Home." At these meetings musical numbers have been interspersed, including piano and vocal solos, quartets, songs by schools, etc.
Though a mere beginning has been made, both parents and teachers who have participated in the work of the association feel that it has been eminently worth while for a better mutual understanding of the child, and a deeper appreciation by each of the viewpoint of the other.
A similar organization was effected at Wilkinson in 1915-16.

CHAPTER VII.
MILITARY.
Three times since the organization of the county have our citizens heard the Nation's call to arms. Each time the people have responded enthusiastically.
The first call was made at the outbreak of the Mexican War in 1846. Company D. Fifth regiment, Indiana volunteers, was organized in Hancock county under James K. Bracken. The company was mustered in October S. 1847. to serve during the war. The Fifth regiment was under the command of Col. James H. Lane, and served with General Scott until July 28, 1848, when it was mustered out.
The company organized at Greenfield was composed of the following men, as nearly as can be ascertained : James R. Bracken, captain ; Andrew M. Patterson, first lieutenant : James Hamilton, second lieutenant : Hugh J. Kelly, third lieutenant ; Micajah Francis, first sergeant ; Henry Ramsey. second sergeant : Isaac Tamplin, third sergeant ; Lewis T. Osborn, corporal; Robert Walker, corporal: Robert Smith, corporal; Henry Galloway, musician. Privates-Joseph Anderson, Ezra Conoway, Robert H. Caldwell, William H. Chapman.

following letter preserved by the writer's people and published in the Hancock Democrat on June 21. 1877. gives us just a glimpse of what they saw and experienced :
"Jalpa. Mexico. December 3. 1847. "My Dear Wife and Children :
"Again i am placed in my tent, very tired, but cheerful and happy as ever I was in my life, and I suppose that I need not say that I hope that these few lines may find you enjoying the same state of health, as I do think you will be ready to acknowledge and believe that my very soul has always been wrapped up in the love of my family.
"We have traveled six hard days' march towards the city of Mexico. and will have some ten or twelve more before we get there. as it is very labo- rious moving a large army. The whole country through which we have passed is hilly, mountainous and rocky, but looks romantic, and in some places very pretty, as the trees are now covered with blossoms, but there is but little fruit. There is but little danger here, or indeed do I think there is but little danger any place in this country, as we can hear of no army any place in the government. There are a few guerillas along the road but dare not appear or show fight. I saw one who had just been killed and some of the boys say they saw six or eight more. I was out hunting and saw a new black fellows, but they run like devils, and I got no shot. There were but two of us. A. Pauley and myself, but it appears as though one can chase a dozen. There is still no immediate prospect of peace.
"On the ascent frem Vera Cruz to Mexico the climates succeed each other, as it were by stories, and in our travel we have passed through every variety of vegetation. The tropical plants are succeeded by the oak, and the salubrious air of Jalapa replaces the deadly air of Vera Cruz. The sky is generally cloudless, and but very little rain, and a succession of hills, seem- ingly at some day the boundary of lakes are now the limits of extensive plain- or rolling prairies but the rocks or stones all very near the surface. The country is barren because it is very dry and stony, but every stream is accompamed with some fertile land. The snow is in sight on the mountains and contributes much to cool the air now. as it is cloudy : and it is said to le the coldest day ever experienced in this country. It would be called cold in our country in May. The coffee bush grows here. The berries are now ripe, and is a small red berry, very juicy, and as poisonous as can be.
"The timber is low and crooked. I have seen no tree in the country that woukl have made a rail cut. Everything, weed, bush and tree, except the scrubby oak and orange bush and coffee bush has thorns on. The thorns
257

resemble the thorn on the honey locust, but they are more crooked and as thick as they can grow from top to bottom, leaf and all.
"JOSEPH CHAPMAN."
On March 27, 1879, a notice, signed by Thomas H. Branham, Robert Smith, Jerry H. Hendren, Robert P. Andis and Adams L. Ogg, and pub- lished in the local papers, called a meeting of all Mexican War veterans at the mayor's office at Greenfield for the purpose of organizing an association of the veterans of that war. The following veterans were present at the meet- ing: Adams L. Ogg, John Roberts, Jerry H. Hendren, Robert P. Andis, Dr. E. W. Pierson, Thomas H. Branham, Louis T. Osborn, John H. Childs, Alexander Andis and Newton Scott. An organization was effected with Adams L. Ogg, president, and Thomas Il. Branham, secretary. Although there were but a few of the soldiers left it seems that this organization was maintained for several years. Annual meetings of the veterans were held in different parts of the state as long as any survivors were able to attend. The state encampment was held at Greenfield in 1904.
There are no longer any members of this company living in Hancock county. Among its last survivors were Robert Smith, James H. Carr and Jeremiah Hendren, who departed this life five or six years ago. Jeremiah Hendren, the last of our Mexican War veterans, died on October 29, 19TI.
THE CIVIL WAR.
When the first call of President Lincoln was made at the outbreak of the Civil War, a fife and drum corps was organized by Capt. Reuben .A. Riley, Henry Snow and others, who made a circuit of the county to stir up enthusiasm in the enlistment. A company was organized and mustered in at Indianapolis on April 22, 1861. as Company G of the Eighth regiment, Indiana volunteers ( three-months service ). The muster roll is as follows : Reuben A. Riley, captain ; John Stephenson, first lieutenant ; Lee O. Harris, second lieutenant : John M. Stevenson, first sergeant ; Marion M. Stevenson, Pilatiah Bond and John S. Edwards, sergeants: John H. Duncan, Samuel Marsh. John S. Chittenden, Henry Snow and Elberlee S. Duncan, corporals : Jacob Mullen, George P. Stevenson and Sylvester Shorn, musicians ; privates. William W. Alexander, Jacob T. Battett, John S. AAllison. Benjamin Bond. Lusettus Anderson. Arthur S. Brown, James Buchanan, Martin V. Chapman, Jesse D. Dobbins, John Dye. Jr., Orando Ellis, Jabez E.

On starting for the front this company was presented with a large flag made by several of the Greenfield ladies, Mrs. Permelia Thayer. Mrs. A. P. Williams, Miss Alice Pierson. Miss Martha Meek and others. The flag was made in the house now occupied by Mrs. Permelia Thayer, on the north- east corner of Main and Pennsylvania streets in the city of Greenfield.
The "three-months men" were mustered out on August 6. 1861. after having been as far east as Virginia, and having participated in the engagement at Rich Mountain in that state. Many of them, however, reenlisted at once for a period of three years, or during the war.
THIE VETERANS OF THE CIVIL WAR.
It is exceedingly difficult. if not impossible, to make a complete roll of the men who enlisted as volunteers from this county and who were among the veterans of the Civil War. By far the great majority of our boys en- listed in Indiana regiments. But many, who were temporarily absent from home, also enlisted in other states, and Indiana has no record of their names. in going over the records in the adjutant-general's office. page by page, it is ctill practically impossible to make a correct roll, since in so many instances the record is incomplete, failing to show the residence of the men. In such cases personal acquaintance would be required with each man to determine accurately to which county he belongs.
Below is given the roll of enlisted men from our county as nearly cor- rect as we have been able to make it. Some of the men who enlisted as pri- vate soldiers were later commissioned as officers. Others were transferred to different regiments. Some of the officers were also promoted from time to time. This accounts for some names appearing several times, especially in the companies that were filled almost entirely with Hancock county boys. The men have been grouped in companies, showing their associations during the war.
259
MILITARY.
Among those who always claimed Hancock county as their home, but who were not credited to this county, were Gen. Oliver P. Gooding, who was for many years in the regular army, but who was appointed colonel of a Massachusetts regiment during the war, and who rose to the rank of brig- adier-general. Adams L. Ogg, who was in Iowa, organized a company there and was captain of Company G, Third Iowa volunteers.
The following men enlisted and were credited to Hancock county :
