Butterfield. president. The Kith
Michigan, originally known us Stock
ton's 1st Michigan independent regi
ment, was organi/.ed ut Camp Backus,
Detroit. Mich., by Col. T. W. B.
Stockton, of Flint. Mich. Under
direct authority from the Secretary of
War, before it left Detroit for thc
seat of war, thc ladies of Detroit,
through MrB. Charles K. Dunks and
her daughter, Mr?. R. T. Elliott, pre
sented to Stockton's regiment a superb
flag of finest blue silk, inscribed
thereon Stockton's Independent Regi
ment. The State arms on one side
aud on the reverse thc arms of the
United States, finely executed, on
which was the motto, "Stand by the
Cnion."
At the battle of Gaines's Mill, Ya.,
.June 27, IHG'2, this flag wus captured
by Col. M. Jenkins's, Palmetto Sharp
shooters, under the following circum
stances: Late in the oveniug of that
day the Confederate army until then
had been unable to break our lines.
Hood's Texans were thrown to the
front of Gon. Fitz .John Porter's left
centre, (Martindale's brigade,) rushing
against it like a tornado, beat it back <
and swept Mung with it the right of
Butterfield's brigade. This brigade
being the extreme left of Porter's
linc: Stockton's regiment (Kith) the
left of the brigade, the latter being
now forced back, formed a new front
on its original right flank. Stockton's
brigade was rallied by Major Norman
E. Welch, und advanced back to its
original position. We saw a brigade
advancing across thc plateau as if to
strike our brigade on its left flank.
This brigade proved to be Gen. ll. H.
Anderson's, commanded by Col. M.
Jenkins. Major Welch gave the com
mand, "Right face, tile right, march!"
Passing down thc incline until we
formed a junction with the rest of our
brigade, fronted, and commenced load
ing, not quite certain in the dusk of
evening that the troops advancing
were friend or foe. Col. Jenkins
halted his men within about thirty
paces of our line and commanded us
to surrender. Major Welch replied:
"I>-d if we do." Immediately the
South Carolinians, the Palmetto in
front, poured into our ranks a wither
ing volley of musketry and repeated it
by regiment, the front regiment kneel
ing. Our ranks were mowed down
like grass. Corpl. Pideau, who carri-1
ed the silk flag, was shot down. The
Confederates had now oharged us and
were in our ranks. Some one of our men
stooped down to recover the fallen
flag, and he. too, was shot down and
the flag captured by Col. Jenkins's
Palmetto Sharpshooters. Oj our rk^ht

learning who wc were, remarked to his
men the incident of us firing on them
in the hollow and the capture of our
flag. We were glad to meet on friend
ly terms and would have gladly shared
with them our last morsel of food or
our last penny. Some time last fall a
discussion arose between several sur
vivors of that struggle as to what bri
gade first penetrated our lines and
wound up thc fight on the left. It all
appeared in the Confederate,
Veteran, of which I am aj sub
scriber; and to give credit to
Hood's Texans and Jenkins's South
Carolinians. I wrote the Veteran in
January last. After its appearance I
received a tcorc of letters from Con
federate Veterans very complimen
tary to me, especially one from a Pal
metto boy. I have sent it to the
Veteran for publication. The flag in
question was. by permission of tien.
H. K. Lee, presented to the Governor
of South Carolina, and I believe is
now in thc archives of your State Capi
tol.
And now that all sectional feeling is
obliterated, the North and thc South
united by thc tenderest ties of broth
erhood under one flag that binds with
golden links these glorious I'nited
States through these circumstances of
glorious change, 1 appeal to the kind
ness of your Excellency and the Vet
erans of the 1st Palmetto Sharpshoot
ers that the flag be returned to our
organization, and not without giving
in return some lasting memorial to its
gallant captor that will bear his name
down thc ages of fame and the organi
zation to which he belonged. We,
too, will have the flag, not for its in
trinsic value, but in remembrance of
those who presented it to us. Mrs.
Dunks is dead, and Mrs. PJliott,
whose husband, IL T. Elliott, was my
captain and Major commanding the
regiment when he was killed at Golopo
toiny Creek. Virginia, May 20, 1SU4:
Major Welch, afterward colonel, killed
at thc battle of Peablcs Farm, Ya.,
September IH), lS'.'.-i. Another brother
of Major Elliutt, a major also, was
killed in the Wilderness; one aged
brother now survives Itichn.rd Elliott,
who contributed to the flag. I learn
ed through the daily press that a
NorthCarolina regiment returned a cap
tured flag to thc 14th Michigan, which
caused me to write Col. Hill, with
the hope and prospect in view of get
ting our flag returned. Hence my
appeal to your Excellency in behalf of
our association and the memory of
those loved ones now passed to tho
othsr shore. I have given your Ex
cellency ali thc facts in this matter as
I know theut, and now fully believing
that your Excellency will give them
due consideration, will await your
reply, with the hope and prayer that
the gallant heroes of Jenkins's Pal
metto Sharpshooters will consent to
return our long lost flag, so gallantly
captured and so honorably lost, 1 have
the honor to be very respectfully your
obedient servant,'

Thc flag was not turned over to tho
State during Governor Kllerbe's term,
and nothing seems to bc known about
it at his office. If there is anything
known about the matter <?overnor
Ellerbe would be glad to hear about it
and it would be well to communicate
direotly with the Mich.gan officers,

Many old soldiers now feel the

Penn., who saw tho hardest kind of
service at thc front, is now frequently
troubled with rheumatism. "I had a
severe attack lately," he says, ';and
procured a bottle of Chamberlain's

1 would like to know what you would

Mr. Anderson wanted it both for his

Wit) Booth Killed Lincoln.
We are much interested in n short
article in thc April number of Wake
Forest Student. It was sent by < ?eorge
Anderson Foote, son of the late l?r.
(?eorge Foote, of Warrenton, an hon
ored and highly reputable physician
lately deceased. He first gives an ex
tract fruin Appleton's Cyclopedia of
Biography, (wrongly printed "Biolo
gy,") of the banging of that very gal
lant and meritorious officer, Captain
.John Young Beal], a native of Vir
ginia, and born in 1835, and banged
February 24th 1805, as a spy, which
was most infamous, most infernal. He
was regularly commissioned and was
acting under orders. It was one of
thc many disgraceful acts of the Goths
and Tandals in their war upon thc
South, and literally without any rea
sonable or just cause. A sketch was
found among l>r. Foote's papers, who
was a surgeon in the Confederate army,
and was imprisoned in Fort Columbus,
New York harbor. Dr. Foote's post
humous paper is both interesting and
informing. He tells of the efforts
made to save Captain Heall's life by
Governor Andrew, of Massachusetts,
and others, but in vain. Dr. Foote's
cell in which bc was confined was ad
joining Capt. Heall's. Bcall and .fohn
Wilkes Booth bad been roommates at
college and were very dear friends.
Booth tried every way to secure Heall's
release from prison, but in vain. An
effort to secure his escape was made,
in which Dr. Foote was to be a party.
In fact, two plans caine tc naught.
The interesting point, really of his
torical interest, is to follow. Dr.
Foote's private memorandum gives a
statement that will surprise many, as
it did us. The commou idea is that
President Lincoln was murdered by
John Wilkes Booth because he was
the head of thc Northern States and
was responsible for the war upon the
South. In other words, that Booth,
being in intense sympathy with the
South, and being something daft, had
assassinated the President on account
of his course in the war. After the
plans failed Dr. Foote says Booth
hurried to Washington and on his
knees implored President Lincoln and
Secretary Seward to pardon, or at least
respite Beall. Lincoln promised to
respite, but that night Lincoln order
ed his execution. Dr. Foote says :
"This order was executed and Beall
was hanged within thirty yards of my
window and inside Fort Columbus,
and not at Johnston's Island, as has
been frequently reported.
"Booth, for what he termed the
perfidy of President Lincoln toward
himself and friend Beall, at once swore
to avenge his friend's death by killing
both Lincoln and Seward. He did
not intend to shoot Lincoln in the the
atre, but the contemplated opportunity
did not offer itself elsewhere.
"But for the fact that Booth's spur
caught in the curtain that fatal night
he Trould have escaped, at least for a
time. The war had nothing to do
with the assassination of the Presi
dent; it was due simply and solely to
revenge, intensified by Booth's love
and admiration for his friend.
"Booth went to New York the morn
ing of Beall's execution, and being so
grievously disappointed at what had
occurred, he became measurably an in
sane mac. I had not the least idea of
Booth's plan to assassinate the Presi
dent. This plan was known only to
one man, and to him Booth revealed
in only an hour before the assassina
tion. The man to whom he thus con
fided his purpose, begged him not to
carry it out, and finding that Booth
was not to be turned from his revenge,
left the city before the horrid tragedy
occurred."
We were very intimate with Dr.
Foote for many years. He was our
family physician, and most attentive,
sympathetic and skillful. We always
thought him truthful, honorable and
sincere. We at least believe his state
ment without reservation.- Wilming
ton Messenger.

Secourt South Carolina Men Return.
Company lt, Greenville's quota in
the 2d South Carolina Regiment, mus
tered out at Augusta the ?lay before,
yesterday, wer?' joyfully 'received
by their home friends and relatives
alter their tong absence. Capt. W. (J.
Sirrin? is justly proud of the tact that
be lost not a single man during the
service by sickness or otherwise and
that non?* are left behind sick.
In speaking ot the manners, customs
and characteristics of the Cubans, and
venturing an opinion as to their future,
Capt. Sirrinc said :
'.We found that the people of Cuba
were apparently glad to see thc Amer
ican soldier, and while we were there
no clash occurred. They wen- apa
thetic in their manner, but whenever
approached for information seemed to
bo anxious to prove themselves friend
ly. Tbc better class of Cubans an-in
all respects like our own Southern citi
zens so far as their conduct toward
strangers is concerned. It is errone
ously supposed by some that they are
not of pun* blood, but from observa
tion lean say that this isa mistake.
A large part of the islanders are ne
groes but occupying toward tho better
class thc same subordinate position
that negroes occupy in this country.
Among the less cultured portion of the
inhabitants they associate on terms of
equality, and the consequence is a more
noticeable admixture of blood. A
large majority of the Cuban soldiers
we saw were negroes and mulattoes,
but the ofliccrs were white. I can only
speak from actual observation in and
around Havana. I do not recall seeing
a single negro merchant or otlicer of
the government. It is true that some
of these business men are s\ arthy, but
leonid see no trace of African blood
in them. It there is friction between
thc whites and blacks it did not conn
within my view or knowledge. The
entire population strikes me on the
whole, as industrious and self respect
ing. They arc quick-tempered and
free in expressing their thoughts and
to this excitability of nature must be
attributed the disorders that have oc
curred in Havana. There arc all over
the island, however, men of high in
telligence who have been educated in
the United Statesand in Europe. Their
conservatism seems to be having a
favorable effect among the educated
class. I believe that in the course of
four or five years the people will have
become accustomed to the art of self
government and will appreciate in a
measure its responsibilities. 1 do not
?>reteud to express an expert opinion,
or the many duties that I was called
upon to perform left me little time to
investigate or study the conditions, but
everywhere I went I found shrewd and
well informed business men, quiet and
orderly laborers and soldiers who, if
not well disciplined, certainly attend
ed to their own business.
"I did not expect to see evidences of
statesmanship or diplomacy, but I ob
served activity in commerce and patri
otic efforts to master municipal prob
lems.
"It is not necessary to refer to the
inherent weaknesses of the Cubans in
expressing the view that they arc capa
ble of some day managing their own
affairs. Many of them are cruel, re
venge ful and treacherous, but this is a
chain eteristic of their progenitors. As
socia aoti with Americans will probably
eradicate many of these evils. There
is a movement to increase the number
of schools and hospitals.
" The city of Havana will be a more
tit pla?? to live in a year from now than
ever in its history. American ideas of
cleanliness are becoming general. In
the country, however, it will doubtless
be many years before the unfortunate
disregard of the commonest of sanitary
laws is mitigated.
"One cannot expect that a people so
long threatened, oppressed and perse
cuted can spring into prosperous civil
ization at one oound. There is cer
tain to be disaffections, brigandage
and dishonesty in the administration
or local affairs. But the general wish
of the people to be recognized as gov
ernors of tb' ir own country, coupled
with tlie peaceful influence of commer
cial interdependence, will have a pow
erful effect in establishing law and
order. These views may be too hope
ful, and the troubles of the South
American republics may be repeated in
Cuba. However, tho nearness of the
island to the United States, and the
constant interchange of ideas through
the business letter and the press, may
form a close union of sympathy and
purpose/'-Greenville News, April ?J.
