The Sixth Infantry .- This regiment was organized at Keene, in No- vember, 1861. Gen. Nelson Converse, of Marlborough, of the old militia, was its Colonel: Simeon G. Griffin, of Nelson, late Captain of Co. B, 2d Regiment, Lieut .- Col .; and Charles Scott, of Peterborough, Major. It served in several departments. being first ordered to the Southern Atlantic coast, at Hatteras Inlet, N. C., and Roanoke Island-it then became a part of Burnside's corps, serving in Virginia, Maryland, Tennessee, and on the Mississippi. It took part in the momentus battles of Antietam, Second Bull Run, Fredericksburg, the siege of Vicksburg, and the closing scenes of the war with the Army of the Potomac, in 1864 and '65, and was mustered out July 22, 1865. This was an excellent regiment, in discipline and effective- ness. Col. Converse, its original commander, did not serve but a few months, when Lieut .- Col. Griffin assumed command. He distinguished himself as an officer, and received the highest promotion accorded to a New Hampshire soldier, being Brigadier and Brevet Major-General. His home is now in Keene, although he has large interests in ranche property in Texas, to which he devotes considerable of his time.

Putnam, of the Regulars .- a native of Cornish, in Sullivan county, -as Colonel, Joseph C. Abbott, late Adjutant General, as Lieut. Col., and Daniel Smith, of Dover, as Major.

In June it was sent to Beaufort, S. C., and then to St. Augustine, Fla.

HISTORY OF COOS COUNTY.
The Ninth Infantry .- This regiment was recruited more slowly than its predecessors, and was perhaps the first that experienced to any consid- erable extent the effect of the "bounty " system. It went into camp in Concord in June, 1862, and left for the front August 25, under Col. E. Q. Fellows, formerly of the Third. It was a gallant regiment and performed heroic service. From first to last, it had many good men from the county, and lost heavily in many engagements, notably, Antietam, Fredericksburg, the battles of the Wilderness in 1864, and the closing conflicts of the war. Its service was under Burnside, in Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, Mis- sissippi and Tennessee, and it was mustered out in June, 1865.
John W. Titus, of Keene, was Lieutenant-Colonel, and George H. Chandler, of Concord, Major. Colonel Fellows, as before stated, survives, as does Col. Titus. Major Chandler became a successful lawyer at Balti- more and died within a few years.
The original detachment from this county, in the Ninth, was raised by Lieut. John G. Lewis and incorporated in Co. H. Lieut. Lewis was a man of sterling qualities, tenderness of heart and personal bravery. He was killed while leading his company in storming the Heights at Fredericks- burg in December, 1862. His body was borne off the field at night by Masonic comrades and given interment under the solemn rites of that order, at Lancaster, where a suitable monument records his virtues and perpetuates his memory.
With Lieut. Lewis was Lieut. John Edwin Mason, who had made many friends in Coös, while preparing the county map in 1860. He was engaged with him in the enlistments and was commissioned in the same regiment. His connection with the soldiers of Coös warrants the insertion of his name in this connection. He was of Manchester, served with credit through the war, and is now a surgeon in the Bureau of Pensions, Washington.
The enlistments from Coos and the subsequent choice of Coos recruits for the Ninth, was due largely to the character and zeal of Lieut. Lewis, whose memory is held in high esteem. The service of this regiment was varied and trying. Serving in many states and on all kinds of military duty, being transported over great distances and engaging in the most arduous campaigns, it won and preserved a most honorable reputation for discipline, endurance and bravery.

Col. Donohoe was an accomplished and meritorious officer, and was advanced to the rank of Brigadier. He has, since the war, been engaged in railway pursuits, and is at present an inspector of the Postoffice department. Lieut-Col.

where he became eminent as a practitioner. He died about the commence- ment of the present year.

The Twelfth Infantry .- This command was raised within less than one week, in August, 1862, in the region around Lake Winnipiseogee. It was understood that the men were to select their own officers, and detachments and companies were made up from localities, so that the aggregate was more like the muster of a Highland clan. than like a common regiment. It was the fervent desire of all, that the veteran, Thomas J. Whipple, a soldier of two wars, and late of the First and Fourth, should be placed in command: but the Executive failed to ratify this wish, and Joseph H. Pot- ter, a New Hampshire man, and an accomplished officer of the regular army, was placed in command, with John F. Marsh, of Nashua, as Lieu-

THE SOLDIERS OF COOS.
tenant-Colonel, and George D. Savage, of Alton, as Major. The regiment served with distinction in Virginia during its entire enlistment. Col. Pot- ter survived the war, and has recently gone upon the retired list of the army as a Brigadier. Major Savage, a great favorite with all the "boys," was long a popular character at all soldier gatherings, and died greatly lamented, within a few years, at his home at Alton Bay. The veterans of New Hampshire have two notable reminders of the gallant Twelfth, -- Col. Nat Shackford, the indefatigable secretary of the Veterans' Association, and the " Memorial Stone " at the Wiers, the gift of comrade Woodbury Sanborn, now of Lowell.
The Thirteenth Infantry .- This regiment went into camp at Concord, in September, 1862, with Aaron F. Stevens, of Nashua, late Lieutenant- Colonel of the First Regiment, Colonel; George Bowers, also of Nashua, a veteran of the Mexican war, Lieutenant-Colonel; and Clement Storer, of Portsmouth, Major. It left the state early in October, and its service throughout was in Virginia. It was mustered out June 20, 1865, and ar- rived home about the first of July. It was engaged at Fredericksburg, Suffolk, Drury's Bluff, Petersburg, and in other notable conflicts, and on all occasions won and maintained high credit. Col. Stevens was brevetted Brigadier, and was subsequently a member of Congress. Distinguished as a public man and lawyer, he resides at Nashua, enjoying deserved honors. Lieut .- Col. Bowers was afterward distinguished for his adminis- tration as Grand Commander of the Department of New Hampshire, of the G. A. R. He died at Nashua within a few years.
In this regiment was one company, H, and many recruits from this county, chiefly the northern towns. This command was raised by Nor- mand Smith, Captain, of Stewartstown; Albe Holmes and Robert R. Thompson, of Stratford, Lieutenants. It was composed entirely of volun- teers. and from the best material the county afforded-men who realized the work before them, and on all occasions performed their duties with intelligence, patience and bravery. Captain Smith, in time, rose to the command of the regiment. At the close of the war he moved to the vicinity of Richmond, Va., a location familiarized to him by the dangers and trials of his military career. He has been a member of the Virginia Senate, and held other stations of responsibility. Lient. Holmes, after a successful business career in northern Coös, engaged in trade in Boston, and resides near that city. Lieut. Thompson died in the army.
No better body of men went from the state. than those men who en- listed from Coos, in this regiment. Since their return they have prospered, generally, in business, and merit the respect that is accorded them.

Fourteenth Infantry .- This was the last three years regiment. It was composed of excellent men, who discharged their duties with exemplary fidelity and honor. It was mustered at Concord, September 24. 1862, and left the state the latter part of the ensuing October. It first reported at Washington and spent the winter in picketing forty miles of the Potomac, did provost and guard duty in Washington in 1863, and the next spring was ordered to New Orleans, but came north the same summer, when it went into the Shenandoah Valley, engaging in the historic campaign of that year. The succeeding January it was sent to Savannah, Georgia, coming north again in July, being mustered out at Concord on the 26th of that month.
