Reaching Elmira late at night, and having to leave early in the morning. I enter a saloon and solicit the privilege of spread- ing my blanket on the floor for a few hours, a favor readily granted. This is no hardship for me, since I am used to a bed on the floor. The unceasing din of noisy drinkers does not disturb me in the least. At the proper hour I took the train for Watkins, and went by boat to Geneva on the old New York Central railroad. As I wandered over the boat I was not a little pleased to find it the very one in which I had journeyed southward a year before. I knew it, for written on the smoke- stack was my own name, placed there. boy-like, by myself. I felt as if I had found an old friend.

Herkimer, whence I am to make my trip by foot to Middleville, six miles further north. My entire way is along the bank of the West Canada creek, whose waters some miles above form the famous Trenton Falls, but I am not just now aesthetically in- clined. I am going home as fast as my strength will admit. Of course I should have gone to a stable and hired a convey- ance, but again I overrated my powers of endurance. I had walked this same road repeatedly before, and why not now! I had progressed only a little way when it became painfully apparent that I could not hold out. Accordingly I called at the next house and asked the farmer if I could hire him to carry me to Middleville. This he consented to do for a dollar and a half. Snugly ensconced in a sleigh with plenty of buffalo robes about me, I made the remainder of the journey comfortably.
Reaching the village, I dismiss my driver as soon as I arrive in sight of the lighted windows in the parsonage. It is more than a year since I saw the interior of that house, and eight months since I have heard from any of its occupants. What changes may not have taken place in that interval! Is it any wonder that I do not wish any outsider to witness the meet- ing? The curtains are down, so I get no revelation as I ap- proach. Drawing the cape of my overcoat above my head I advance to the door and knock. Soon a step approaches. I think it that of my father. The door opens and father stands before me. The soldier coat for a moment confuses him, but it is for a moment only, for he speedily exclaims, "Why, my son," and grasps me warmly by the hand. By this time I have entered the room, where mother takes me to her heart as only a mother can. My sister disputes with her the possession of my head and shoulders, a seven-year-old brother is hugging for dear life the lower part of my body; but through all this I am sensible there is something lacking. My anxious look is detected. My eyes have indicated what my tongue dare not utter. My brother, just in his teens, is missing. Mother, whose hair has silvered rapidly during my absence, says, "You are looking for Mort." This was and is the home name of Morti- mer, the playmate of my boyhood. "He is not at home now. He has secured a place to work in Auburn." What a sigh of relief I drew, for I feared that the vacancy indicated that the boy at home had succumbed to that which his soldier brother had escaped. A telegram speedily summons him, and ere many

hours the family is reunited. Of the comparing of notes, of the battles fought over, of the rejoicings that home was found, why take your time to tell? They are in the lives and experi- ences of every listener who went to the war and then came back to his home again.
Perhaps, however, I shall never have a better opportunity to say a word about those who saw the home side of the war. We who went down to the strife, carried the guns, and as we thought then endured all the hardships, knew nothing of the terrible anxiety of those whom we left behind us. The great majority of the rank and file were irresponsible boys who were fairly happy when their stomachs were full and the marches were not too long. Of what a father's sensations might be I had not the slightest notion till long after the din was over. The older men of our comrades did not receive from us the consideration that I now think was their due. They were fre- quently laughed at as blue and gloomy, when all of us would have been just the same had we had equal responsibilities. But young and old we had the consolation of action. The march. the bivouac, the fight, all these served to distract the mind and prevent its dwelling on thoughts which brought heaviness. Not so in the home. There a never wanting sense of loneliness abode. The one absent in body was ever present in mind. The danger to which he was exposed was, if possible, magnified till the anxious soul fairly consumed itself in its ceaseless vigils. Every report of new movements at the seat of war brought with it the wonder whether the dear one would be endangered, and of these contemplated movements those at home knew vastly more than did we ourselves, who were actors in the drama. How the papers were read! The popular newspaper era in this country may be said to date from the days of the war, when the correspondent learned what the people wanted for news. Was there a battle! With what feverish haste the paper was devoured, dreading, fearing, lest the name dearest of all may appear among the fatalities.
A father enters the home with a copy of the New York Herald in his trembling hand. The wife and mother who had watched for his return knows that he brings sad news. The corps to which their boy belongs they know has been designated for a perilous task, and this paper tells the story of the fight and of the casualties. The father can not trust himself to speak, but
366

he points to one name among the missing, and then betakes himself to his closet for prayer, his refuge in every hour of dis- tress. The mother reads the name of her first born as not accounted for, and what boots all the rest? Patriot though she is to her heart's core, she can not help the question, "Is the purchase worth the price?" With what diligence must she pursue her household duties to prevent the weight of her ca- lamity crushing her. Anon, she searches for the father, and finds him with his Bible in hand looking for comforting pas- sages. His hands tremble as he turns the leaves of the well-read book, and here and there he finds words that to him afford comfort. He has preached from these to many a congregation when their dead were brought home to them, and now he must face the dread possibility. Will his faith shrink? I think not. Through those eyes a long line of patriotic ancestry is looking, and though the sacrifice were thrice as great there would be no faltering with him. But such tests bring their inevitable results in premature age. Many a boy left his par- ents with not a token of advancing years visible in them, and after a few months' absence returned to find wrinkles and gray hairs making sad inroads on his parents' faces. During the fur- lough following my imprisonment, it was my pleasure to sit at the table of certain aged relatives who had for sundry rea- sons always possessed an unusual regard for me. Said the gentleman, "We have never sat at this 'board, during all the months of your being with the rebels, without wishing you might have some of the food before us; and we have never knelt at the family altar without bearing you in our prayers to the throne of the Heavenly Grace." Behind the most of us, who imperiled health and life, there were just such prayers constantly ascending, and whatever our own lives, we were not sorry that this praying contingent was ceaseless in its activity.
Our battling was that home in the broadest and deepest sense might exist in all this fair land; that no nominal owner might separate the father from his children, a wife from her husband. Our fight was a winning one, and with the end of our fighting was the end of the glaring and flaunting lie that one man could hold and enslave his fellow man. Henceforth the flag that we had followed was to float over a race of free men, free to come and go, free to make and hold, what I have tried to picture here, a Home.

VETERAN ASSOCIATION.
CHAPTER XXVII.
VETERAN ASSOCIATION OF THE NINTH HEAVY ARTILLERY.
For more than twenty-five years annual gatherings of the survivors of the regiment have been had. It is claimed that the association had its birth in a camp pitched at Briscoe's Cove, on the southern shore of Great Sodus bay, August 26, 27 and 28, 1874. 1
This meeting had been decided upon at a preliminary run- together of certain veterans of the regiment held in Lyons March 4th, 1874. Of this preparatory meeting Lieutenant L. C. Comstock of Auburn was the secretary.
The camp itself was a great success, and is to this day referred to as a time to be remembered. So successful was it that an enlargement of its scope was determined upon, and the Wayne and Cayuga Veterans' Association was formed, which for many years held its assemblies on the shores of the bay. It is not too much to state that no similar gatherings in the Empire State have been more successful than those drawn to this beautiful portion of New York. They have commanded speakers from all parts of the country, and have grown to be affairs looked forward to at each recurring summer.
The reunions of the Ninth became a small part of the day's doings, and were held at some designated hour in an assigned tent, the same course being observed with other regiments from this section of the state. While the passing hour was de- lightful, it did not quite measure up to what the veterans thought the occasion demanded, and each year there was a de- mand for a reunion elsewhere where the regiment should be the chief consideration, and this desired end eventually came about.
Records are preserved of the gathering in the tent at the county camp of 1888, more or less full. In that year Captain George W. Brinkerhoff of Company A presided, and J. S. Roys of D Company was secretary. Remarks were made by Captain Chauncey Fish of B; G. D. Fox of A; Lieutenant C. D. Lent of H; L. B. Rice of B; Lieutenant Lewis Barton of D; A. S. Roe of A; H. P. Howard of H; Frank Tallman of E; Thomas Hilliard of D. and others. Officers for the ensuing year in- cluded: President, Lieutenant C. D. Lent of Wallington, and

Secretary, J. S. Roys of Lyons. This meeting was held August 14, at 4 P. M.
In 1889 the meeting came August 15, at 4 P. M., with the officers elected the preceding year. Those elected for 1890 were B. L. Avery of Auburn, president, and Frank Tallman, also of Auburn, secretary. Interesting addresses were made by Chap- lain S. T. Devoe, L. B. Rice, Captain Fish, and others. The drift of sentiment was decidedly in favor of a reunion on some autumnal day where the regiment might have the time to itself.
In accordance with the expressed wish, the next gathering of the regiment was in Auburn, and the list of annual gatherings was begun, kept up regularly, except in 1892. The date was very fittingly the 19th of October, the 25th anniversary of the regi- ment's greatest battle. An address of welcome was given by General William H. Seward, which has been highly prized in the intervening years, it having been printed by vote of the survivors present. The officers elected at the summer gather- ing held over.
In 1890, October 17th, in the armory of Auburn, the veterans gathered again, and were welcomed by Mayor Wheeler, and were responded for by General Seward. The Rev. Reuben Bur- ton, former lieutenant in Company B, gave the address. Col- onel Anson S. Wood was elected president, and Frank Tallman was continued as secretary, an office which he has continued to fill to date. There is little doubt that the success of the asso- ciation is due in no small degree to his unflagging zeal in trying to reach all surviving members of the regiment. Those who cherish the memories of their service in war-times owe very much to him.
October 20th, 1891, saw the reunion held in Lyons, Wayne county, and was presided over by President A. S. Wood, who was re-elected for the following year. On account of the G. A. R. encampment in Washington the coming year, it was decided to skip the annual meeting, though a very large number of . the veterans came together in the Capital.
In 1893, October 19th, again the men came to Lyons for their annual handshake and story-telling. They elected John Kevand of Weedsport president, and named his home-town as the next place of meeting.
At the Weedsport meeting, October 19th, 1894, the subject of a history of the regiment was considered, and it was voted to
369
VETERAN ASSOCIATION.
invite Alfred S. Roe of Worcester, Mass., formerly of A Com- pany, to prepare such history, he having on this occasion read an account of the regiment's part in the Battle of Monocacy. Colonel Anson S. Wood was elected president, and. Clyde was assigned as place of meeting. ...
The Clyde gathering, October 18th, 1895, was large and. en- thusiastic, with addresses from the president, Hon. Charles T. Saxton, and others. Major George W. Brinkerhoff was chosen president, with Wolcott as the next assembly place.
Wolcott people did themselves proud in their reception, and congratulatory remarks were made by different speakers, civil and military. The date was September 17th, 1896, pretty near the Winchester date, but not quite. It was voted to meet in Buffalo Aug. 24th, on account of the G. A. R. encampment there in 1897. H. W. Vishion of Company M, a resident of Buffalo, was made president.
The Buffalo assembly drew together men who had not before gathered at the reunions, along with the many who are always on hand. Though way beyond the precincts specially devoted to the Ninth, the meeting was an excellent one. W. V. Walker, Company L, was elected president, and Moravia, his home, was nominated for the next reunion.
The day selected for 1898 was September 16th, and the clans repaired to the good old Cayuga village with its quaint Ger- man name. All enjoyed the trip and made A. W. Vanderbilt of Newark, Wayne county, the coming president, and named his village as the place, the date to be October 19th, 1899, and with the permission of Providence the gathering will take place at that time and place.
Secretary Tallman, with his accustomed care, has retained the number of those attending the reunions, and the following is the statement: 1889, 313; 1890, 225; 1891, 164; 1893, 207; 1894, 218; 1895, 254; 1896, 210; 1897, 287; 1898, 143. The time is rapidly approaching when the attendance must fall off meas- urably, for many are nearing an age when distance does not lend enchantment.
The democratic character of the assemblies has given them a great popularity. The women friends of the veterans are al- ways welcomed, and they are among the most interested listen- ers of the proceedings, which are usually of a reminiscent char- acter. The citizens of the towns where the reunions are held

have, as a rule, thrown open their homes and hearts and given the warmest reception possible. To the younger and rising generation these gatherings have been excellent object lessons, keeping fresh in mind the sacrifices made that they might enjoy the blessings of liberty.
When the line is formed and the old "boys" with whitening locks and aging forms follow their drummers of long ago, it is a sight to arouse the admiration and emulation of younger men, and who can tell how wide-reaching the lesson may be? Usu- ally, General Seward is present, and he leads his men as he did of old, though no one bears a weapon heavier than a cane.
As far as known the following list includes the names of all surviv- ing members of the regiment with their post office addresses.
