CHAPTER XX.


The War of 1612-General Officers-Rolls of the Companies of Captains Carothers, Crain, Dietrick, Eller, Fetterhoff, Graham, Henry, Ru ght, MetHenny, Moorhead, Smith, Tod-love-Association of the Sol- diers of the War of 1al2.


WE shall not here refer in full to the causes which led to the second war with England, that of 1812-14, save to say that the difficulties arose from the dopre- dations of the latter power in assuming the right to search American vessels, and against which the United States had earnestly protested. On the 18th of June, 1812, Congress declared war against Eng- land, voted five millions of dollars for war purposes, and authorized a call for one hundred thousand troops. In the history of Lebanon County we have given in full the address of Governor Snyder, of Penn- sylvania, calling upon the volunteer soldiery of the State " to rally around the constituted authorities of the Union." Such was the enthusiasm of the hour that in response to the Governor's call three times as many troops tendered their services as were required. The disappointment of some was so great that money was freely offered to secure a place among those ac. cepted by the authorities.


Dauphin County was not backward. In 1$12 and 1813 none of the companies which offered themselves were called, but certain ones were held in readiness for any emergency which might arise.


When the news of the battle of Bladen-burg and the capture of Washington City reached the capital, the old-time patriotism was aroused, and responsive to the call of the hour the following companies were mustered into service, and hastened to the front and to the relief of the beleaguered city of Baltimore. Some of the companies never marehed farther than York.
