So we made a thoroughfare for Freedom and her train, Sixty miles in latitude-three hundred to the main ; Treason fled before us, for resistance was in vain, : While we were marching through Georgia.
The following lines were written by Joseph K. Gibbons, Company G, Thirty-fourth Massachusetts, while sick in his tent, a few days before his death at Fort Lyon, Va., Nov., 1862 :
Underneath a hillock fair, Where the ever-weeping willow Chants a weird and dirge-like air, O'er the streamlets rippling billow, Freedom's martyr, freed from care, Slumbers on his lonely pillow.
Shrine, nor pillars honored mound, Decks the Hero's silent dwelling Deeds of valor to unfold, Admiration's thought excelling- And his praises manifold From his bitter foes compelling.
Human fabrics such as these. . Time's destroying sway soon crumbles, Whose fell power, by Heaven's decrees, Mightiest monarchies oft humbles ; And earth's proudest pageantries, From their lofty station tumbles.

But a more enduring praise Thy brave actions shall inherit Which the hearts of men shall raise, O'er thy deed's exalted merit, Till eternal glory's rays Consecrate thy hallowed spirit.
There he sleeps from trouble free, Life's dark strife in peace forsaking, Till the final reveille Of our new creation's waking,
Calls him with the just to be, Heavenly joys for aye partaking.
THE COUNTERSIGN .*
Alas ! the weary hours pass slow, The night is very dark and still, And in the marshes far below I hear the bearded whip-poor-will ;
I scarce can see a yard ahead, My ears are strained to catch each sound,
I hear the leaves about me shed, And the springs bubbling thro' the ground.
Along the beaten path I pace, Where white rays mark the sentry's track, In formless shrub I seem to trace The foeman's form with bended back ; I think I see him crouching low, I stop and list, I stoop and peer,
Until the neighboring hillocks grow To groups of soldiers far and near.
With ready piece I wait and watch Until my eyes, familiar grown, Detect each harmless earthern notch And turn guerillas into stone ; And then amid the lonely gloom, Beneath the weird old tulip trees, My silent marches I resume, And think of other times than these. *
* * * *
*
So comes the dream-so fleets the night, When distant in the darksome glen, Approaching up the sombre height, I hear the solid march of men ;

Till over stubble, over sward, And fields where gleam the golden sheaf, I see the lantern of the guard Advancing with the night relief.
"Halt ! who goes there? "-my challenge-cry, It rings along the watchful line ; "Relief," I hear a voice reply ; "Advance and give the countersign !" With bayonet at a " charge " I wait, The corporal gives the mystic spell, With " arms a-port " I charge my mate, " Then onward pass, and all is well.
But in the tent that night, awake, I ask, if in the fray I fall, Can I the mystic answer make To the angelic sentry's call ? And pray that Heaven may so ordain, That when I near the camp divine, Whate'er my travail or my pain 1 yet may have the countersign.

CHAPTER XXI.
OFFICIAL RECORD OF SERVICE.
Complete Register* of Officers and Enlisted Men who served in the Regiment, Show- ing each Man's Record who was Honorably Discharged. Prepared from Copies of the Rolls Furnished by the Adjutant-General, U. S. A., and amended through other official sources, by George A. Hussey, Ilistorian.
THE following extract of a letter from the A. G. O. will be read with interest:
WAR DEPARTMENT, ADJUTANT-GENERAL'S OFFICE, Washington, February 20th, 1888.
Colonel WM. SEWARD, JR.,
Commanding 9th Regiment, N. G., State N. Y., New York City.
SIR :- In compliance with the request of the " Board of Officers, 9th Regt. National Guard, State of New York," I have the honor to forward herewith copies of the muster-out rolls of the 83d N. Y. Volunteers. * * *
In this connection I invite your attention to the fact that no Regimental or Com- pany morning report books, Regimental or Company descriptive books, Regimental Hospital Register and Prescription book of the regiment are on file in this office, the same not having been turned in at the time of the muster-out of the Regiment. * * *
The absence of these records has undoubtedly not only delayed the adjustment of claims for pension of members of the Regiment, but perhaps has been the cause of unfavorable action in some cases. *
I therefore request that inquiry be made of the Officers belonging to the Regiment during the war, with a view to ascertaining what disposition has been made of the records mentioned. to the end that they may be placed on file in this Office, so that deserving claimants may have the benefit of the information contained therein.
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant, R. C. DRUM, Adjutant-Generar.
* Any errors brought to the attention of the Historian of the Veteran Corps, apon presentation of official papers, will be cheerfully corrected in future editions.
