THE SQUIRREL HUNTERS.
Early in September, 1862, Kirby Smith with 15,000 veteran Confederate soldiers en- tered Kentucky and took possession of Lex- ington. Frankfort and Maysville and then turned his forces toward Cincinnati. His forces were swelled by Humphrey Marshall's com- mand and also by Morgan's guerilla cavalry. Bragg was at the same time marching upon
Louisville with his army. At this juncture things looked decidedly threatening.
Gen. Lew Wallace was placed in command at Cincinnati. As soon as he arrived in the city, Thursday the 4th of September, he put Cincinnati, Covington and Newport under mar- tial law, issued a proclamation suspending all business, stopping all ferry boats, and summon- ing all citizens to enroll themselves for defense and sent every citizen without distinction to the trenches. The enemy within a few days ap- proached within five miles of the city on the Kentucky side and skirmished with the Fed- eral outposts. The Governor called for vol- unteers and there being no arms each volunteer was required to bring his arms and ammuni- tion. Thus the rifles of the early settlers with their powder horns and shot pouches well sup- plied with powder and bullets were brought in- to requisition. In answer to this call of the Governor, a company was formed and bullets molded. The company hastened to Cincinnati and was there placed upon a steamboat with steam up, ready to be conveyed to any point needed.
That the troops thus recruited and armed called forth many amusing remarks is not to be wondered at. Various headgear from the coonskin cap to the home-made straw hat was in evidence; as to clothes, from the home-made jeans roundabout to the cast-off dress suit; and as to footwear, from the home-made moccasin and the gum boot to the congress shoe.
And the bedding was equally picturesque- heavy comforter, quilts and white and colored blankets. No wonder it called to mind that ancient ditty :
Hark! Hark! hear the dogs bark The beggars are coming to town, Some in rags, some in tags. And some in velvet gowns.
The old saying that prevention is better.

than cure proved true in this case. Thorough preparation. with the troops placed in position behind hastily constructed breastworks and trenches, all of which was doubtless communi- cated to the enemy by traitors in our midst, caused the commander of the rebel forces, Gen- eral Heath, with his 12,000 veterans fresh from their victories at Richmond, when he drew up before this array of determined citizen sol- (liers, to deem it prudent to take the matter into serious consideration before making the attack. After viewing the situation from all points, the sagacious leader of the rebel forces decided that it was best to withdraw while he could and under cover of darkness and a vio- lent thunderstorm made a hasty retreat.
There were a few amusing instances in the situation. While the masses needed but to be called, yet there were a few timid ones and these were hunted out by armed squads with fixed bayonets-some from back kitchens, clos- ets, cellars, garrets, and even under beds where they were hiding, and one was found in his wife's clothes at the wash tub. He was march- ed across the river and placed in a working squad amid the shouts and laughter of the mul- titude.
Of the company from Van Wert, only two made any display of cowardice, and they had been the loudest in their talk of what they would do, but when ordered on the boat re- fused, saying they had come to defend Cin- cinnati and not to go over to Kentucky to fight. But when placed in the ranks with comrades that they knew had been selected for the occa- sion, they confined their opposition to grumb- ling, and when on the boat with the gang-plank up they subsided. The following is the roster of Van Wert's contribution to the "Squirrel Hunters" of Ohio, in 1862. that saved the city without the shedding of blood.
