COMPANY E.
The genesis of a company of soldiers is an exceedingly inter- esting subject. Sometimes the men come entirely from one town or city; again they are the mergings of several localities with some one place as the centre. Company E was peculiarly a southern Cayuga organization. As originally constituted there may have been a few from Auburn, but by far the ma- jority came from the south. Captain Cornwell of Scipio and Lieutenant Stovell of Moravia did a large part of the recruiting, with Lieutenant S. F. Swift in Auburn looking after his vici- nage. Daniel Manchester of Scipio put down his name the 9th day of August, and enlistment followed till September 5th. Practically all the towns south of Auburn were interested, with a frequent recurrence of Scipio, Venice and Moravia.
The burden of the enlisting was borne in the latter part of August; only six names appear as added in September.
