GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC - 233

GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC

(RETURN TO THE TITLE PAGE)

To greater or less extent, ex-Soldiers of different countries have formed organizations for the preservation of old, and the cultivation of new associations, having for their chief bond the common toils and sufferings of military service. But no organization of this sort, in any country ever attained, in numbers, zeal or practical a benefits, to the beneficent results of the "Grand Army of the Republic," consisting of Soldiers of the Union, serving in the War of the Rebellion. The organization bad its origin in Springfield, Illinois, its first mover having been Dr. B. F. Stephenson, of that City, who also drafted its ritual. The order spread rapidly. The first State Department (that of Illinois) was instituted July 12, 1866, and followed by Wisconsin and Iowa in September, same year; Indiana, in November; Kansas, in December; Ohio and Pennsylvania, in January; New York in April; Massachusetts and Missouri, in May; Minnesota, in August, 1867; and so on, until 1885, when there were Encampments in 38 States and Territories. There are 12 Past Commanders-in-Chief, of whom the last is John S. Kountz, of Toledo, whose service covered a period of 11 months, closing with the Nineteenth Annual Session of the National Encampment, at Portland, Maine, in June, 1885. The membership of the organization at the beginning of his term embraced 38 Departments, 5,026 Posts and 269,684 members. Under his administration there was a net gain of 992 Posts, and of 41,394 members. lie personally visited 34 Departments during his service, being much the largest visitation ever made, involving travel from Maine to Washington Territory, and from Minnesota to Georgia, the total of distance traversed being more than 30,000 miles.

The specific objects of the Grand Army of the Republic, are these:

1st. To preserve and strengthen those kind and fraternal feelings which bind together the Soldiers, Sailors and Marines who united to suppress the late Rebellion; and to perpetuate the memory and history of the dead. 2d. To assist such former comrades in arms as need help and protection, and to extend needful aid to the widows and orphans of those who have fallen. 3d. To maintain true allegiance to the United States of America, based upon a paramount respect for, and fidelity to, the National constitution and laws ; to discountenance whatever tends to weaken loyalty, incites to insurrection, treason or rebellion, or in any manner impairs the efficiency and permanency of our free institutions ; and to encourage the spread of universal liberty, equal rights, and justice to all men.

FORSYTH POST No. 15, TOLEDO.

The first local organization of the Grand Army established in this section of Ohio, was Forsyth Post, which was instituted November 19, 1866. For this purpose a number of resident ex-Soldiers met at the office of Colonel John A. Chase, at which Captain Henry E. Howe, yet a resident of Toledo, presented the nature and advantages of such an organization,*

* The following record indicates something of Captain Howe's prominence in the start of this important organization

HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF ILLINOIS,

GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC,

ADJUTANT GENERAL'S OFFICE

SPRINGFIELD, ILL., May 9, 1866.

Special Orders, No. 2.

Captain Henry E. Howe is hereby authorized to organize Encampments of Districts and Posts of the

234 - HISTORY OF TOLEDO AND LUCAS COUNTY.

and the Post was instituted. It took its distinctive name from George Duncan Forsyth, a son of Mrs. Charlotte T. Forsyth, still a resident of Toledo, and a brother of General James A. Forsyth of the United States Army. Lieutenant Forsyth first enlisted as a private in the 14th O. V. I. April 19,1861, three days after the first call for troops was issued. At the close of three months' service he returned to Napoleon, Ohio, where he engaged in business ; but when the call for three years' troops came he again responded. He enlisted at Napoleon in the 100th O V. I. He was commissioned Second Lieutenant in Company B of that Regiment July 11, 1862, and promoted to First Lieutenant January 8, 1863. He was captured at Limestone Station, Tennessee, September 8, 1863, and taken to Libby Prison, where he remained until his death at the hands of one of the prison guards, April 13, 1864. Whether or not the shooting was accidental, will probably never be definitely known, although the preponderance of proof favors the belief that he was not intentionally killed. Lieutenant Forsyth was violating no order of the prison at the time of his death. His remains were brought home and now lie buried in the family lot in Forest Cemetery, Toledo. He was a graduate of the Toledo High School.

The following thirteen constitute the charter members of Forsyth Post : Henry G. Neubert, J. S. Kountz, Wm. E. Parmelee jr., J. A. Chase, J. W. White, Frank Collins,(t) J. K. Hamilton, C. A. Hall, Otto Klemm, H. Rosenbaum, C. C. Starr, R. D. Whittlesey, Win. Corlett, Albert E. Scott.

FORD POST, NO. 14,

EAST TOLEDO.

This Post was organized under charter bearing date of January 21, 1867, with the following members

Charles L. Hurlburt, Augustus Brown, Frank P. Wilson, Michael Mulrooney, Joab Squire, George Scheets, William Sexton, F. J. Kostack, Joseph A. Perry, Samuel McDonald, Arnold McMahon.

A second charter was issued August 26,1878, with the following members, to wit:

Frank P. Wilson, Norman Inman, N. L. Badger, Alonzo L. Brown, Joseph B. Jennings, Orson Sage, Joab Squire, George Scheets, John H. Mack, John McLain, Willis E. Clark.

The Post took its name from Captain Hyatt G. Ford, of Company B, Sixty-Seventh Ohio Volunteer Infantry. He had been for many years a prominent and respected citizen of East Toledo, where for some time he was engaged in the culture of Fruit Trees and Shrubbery. He was one of the earliest Volunteers in the Union Army, and was the first to be brought home to that vicinity as a victim of treason's wrong, he having been killed in battle at Winchester, Virginia, March 16, 1862. Elijah Whitmore, of the same command, was first at Captain Ford's side when he fell. The remains were placed in Willow Cemetery, near to the present site of the Soldiers' Monument.

In 1879, steps were taken to provide a suitable burying-place for Soldiers dying, when the Trustees of Oregon Township, at request of the

GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC. - 243

Post, granted a very desirable lot in Willow Cemetery, which was properly laid out, sodded and otherwise improved. Subsequently, the Trustees of the Township granted additional grounds in the Cemetery, and also the matte of a Soldiers' Monument was early proposed and was prosecuted with such energy, that the Post was permitted to unveil the memento on Decoration Day, 1882, which was an occasion of unsurpassed interest with the members o the Post and a large assemblage of citizens present. The construction of the Monument was prosecuted largely by the Ford Post Monument Association, of which the following persons were the Officers: President, Charles A. Crane; Secretary and Treasurer, Geo. Scheets; Executive Committee, C. A. Crane, Thaddeus W. Taylor, Willis E. Clark, Joab Squire, Geo. Scheets.

The Past Commanders of Ford Post were as follows: Under first charter-Colonel Arnold McMahon, Lieutenant Horace Dodds, Captain A. Romeyn Rogers, and Captain Joab Squire. Under second charter-Joseph B. Jennings (three terms), Willis E. Clark, Captain Joab Squire, and George E, Cool.

The officers of the Post for 1887, are as follows : Orson Sage, P. C.; George White. S. V. P. C.; John D. Foster, J. V. P. C.; O. L. Riddle, Adjutant; George Scheets, Quartermaster; F. P. Wilson, Surgeon ; A. E. Hinds, Chaplain ; M. J. Scott, O. D.; O. Weaver, O. G.; D. C. Williams, S. M.; John Thorp, Q. M. S.; A. Muchler, I. G.; J. F. Owen, O. G.; B. Miller, Color-Bearer; James H.

CHARLES B. MITCHELL POST, NO. 84,

MAUMEE.

This Post was organized June 9, 1881, with 17 charter members. It took its name from Lieutenant Charles B. Mitchell, who entered the service as Private in Company I, Fourteenth Regiment, O. V. I., September 5, 1861, at the age of 18 years. He was appointed Sergeant and Sergeant-Major of that Company, and in May, 1864, promoted to Second Lieutenant, and assigned to Company E. He was serving as such when mortally wounded at the battle of Jonesboro, Georgia, September 1, 1864, and died in hospital at Atlanta, September 28, 1864. His remains were brought to Maumee and there buried. He was a son of Edward Mitchell, an old resident and long a leading citizen and business man of Maumee. Lieutenant Mitchell was a young man of promise and high character, and a Soldier brave and faithful to duty.

Since its organization, the Post has received 78 additional members, meantime prospering in all respects. The beautiful Soldiers' Monument, with granite base and bronze statue, is an outgrowth of the organization, all its members being in the Monumental Association.

The Post took its name from four brothers, who were killed in the War of the Rebellion. Six brothers enlisted in the Union Army, but two returning to their homes. George, Sixth Michigan Cavalry, was killed on the 11th, and Philip, Sixtieth Ohio, on the 17th June, 1864, both near Petersburg, Virginia. David, Fourteenth Ohio, wounded in battle, died near Chattanooga, Tennessee, June 23, 1864. John, One Hundredth Ohio, was killed in battle near Atlanta, Georgia, August 6, 1864. Beside these, were Daniel, member of an Iowa Regiment, and Henry C., of Company I, Fourteenth Ohio Volunteer Infantry. The former now resides at Fort Dodge, Iowa; and latter at Lamar, Barton County, Missouri. All were young men, industrious and worthy citizens. They were sons of Christopher Ruckle, a native of Ireland, who had then lived for many years in Monclova.

Though few in membership and not strong in purse, the Post, nevertheless, through untiring efforts has erected a fine brick building, at a cost of $1,800 ; and also a Soldiers' Monument, at an expense of $500. The latter was dedicated on Memorial Day, 1870. It is 15 feet in height, surmounted by an eagle, of pure white marble. It was manufactered by Edward Lloyd & Son, Maumee City. On the shaft is cut the following record of Monclova Soldiers dead

Thus, of about 120 men enlisting from that Township, not one of them received a commission. Subsequently, four of these were commissioned, as follows Oscar N. Gunn, promoted from Orderly Sergeant in Company I, Fourteenth O. V. I., to Second Lieutenant, and First Lieutenant, and then to Captain (Co. D) same Regiment. John W. Kerr, from the ranks, Company H, and Regimental Commissary Sergeant, One Hundred and Eleventh O. V. I., to First Lieutenant and R. Q. M., 1st U. S. C. Heavy Artillery; and Captain (Co.

Brint and McBride Post was named after John Brint and Wm. H. W. McBride. The former was a son of Daniel and Grace Brint; enlisted for three years at the age of 24, at Camp Oliver, Toledo, August 28, 1861, in Company F, Fourteenth Ohio Infantry; was wounded in the arm at the battle of Jonesboro, September 1, 1864; and died in hospital at Nashville, Tennessee, October 12, 1864, being the last soldier from Richfield who died during the War. He was buried at Sylvania, Lucas County. As noticed, his term of enlistment expired August 28, 1864; but, like a true Soldier of the Union, he volunteered to go into the fight which cost him his life. He was a brother of Wm. Brint, a charter member of this Post, who, like him, was a true Soldier. Wm. H. W. McBride was a son of James R. and Ann McBride. He enlisted at the age of 18, at Richfield Center, August 25, 1861, in Company F, Fourteenth Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry, for three years; was taken sick at London, Kentucky, of typhoid fever, and died in hospital at Crab Orchard, on December 8, 1861, that being the first death of any enlisted Soldier from Richfield Township.

Since the organization of the Post, the following named Soldiers joined it by muster-in and transfer, to wit:

No member of this Post has died. In the year 1885, with the aid of the Relief Corps, the Post erected a fine building, 25x60 feet, two stories high. Previous to that time their meetings were held in the old Town Hall. To the time of the organization of the Post, the citizens of this vicinity had not generally observed Memorial Day. Since its organization, the Post has observed that occasion, and Soldiers' graves in the three cemeteries in this locality have been duly decorated with flowers.

Arthur Gordinier was the first Commander of the Post, serving two terms in succession. William H. Pemberton was the second Commander, serving one term; Jas. R. Smith third Commander, serving two terms. Henry Chulip is now the Commander.

This Post took its name from Harlan Page, who entered the service as a Private in Company K, 25th Ohio, July 10, 1861, at the age of 18 years. He served faithfully until December 13, 1861, when in the fierce engagement at Baldwin's Camp, West Virginia, where 400 Union troops, through deception by a spy, were induced to attack 5,000 Rebels, trusting to re-enforcements which, owing to delay, failed to come up. In the unequal contest thus arising, many of the Union command fell or were wounded. Among the latter was Private Page, who remained 18 days in camp, often pleading, " take me home to die!" Responding to such imploring appeal, eight devoted comrades sat out for Huttonsville, a distance of 60 miles, throughout which, bearing their loved friend on a litter, they pursued their tedious way for six long days, sometimes amid storms, and constantly subjected to repulse by Rebel residents on the route, and sometimes compelled to secure quarters for rest by force. At Huttonsville, the young sufferer bade farewell to his associates, assuring them, that though he might never again be fit for service (his collar-bone being badly shattered), he would, if able, return, to cheer them by his presence. Lieutenant Nat. Haughton, of his Company, telegraphed the time of the sufferer's probable arrival at Sylvania, February 20, 1862, Finally reaching home, he exclaimed, "Oh, how I have prayed for this hour! " His wound forbade all hope of recovery. Among his last utterances was, "Oh, do not pray for my recovery ; but rather, that I may rest and go home." He lived but a week after reaching home, dying February 27th and being buried at Sylvania. Thus, in the short period of six months, had this boy exhibited the highest qualities and paid the extreme sacrifice of the true patriot and brave Soldier. Justly, indeed, have his comrades recognized his devotion in bestowing his name upon their local association. The eight noble comrades of Page, by whose remarkable devotion be was enabled to reach home and friends, were all of his Company, viz.: Lyman B. Stone, aged 18, wounded at Chancellorsville, May 8, 1863, and mustered out July, 1864, at expiration of his term; Werter H. Shaffer, aged 18,

who served three years and was mustered out, July, 1864; William Vickery, aged 21, wounded at the battle of McDowell, Virginia, May 8, 1862; James Moran, aged 22, wounded at Bull Run, August, 1862, and discharged January, 1863, on Surgeon's certificate of disability ; James Smith ; John Klinck ; Michael Herbert, aged 19, killed at Chancellorsville, May 2, 1863; and Charles A. De Bolt, aged 19, wounded May 8, 1862, at McDowell, and veteranized on expiration of his term. It is due to the other members of the Company here to state, that many of them offered to go with Page, if needed.

WOMAN'S RELIEF CORPS, AUXILIARY TO

THE GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC.

Forstyh Corps No. 1, Department of Ohio, Woman's Relief Corps, Auxiliary to the Grand Army of the Republic, was organized as an auxiliary to Forsyth Post, No. 15, G. A. R., March 14, 1879, under the name of "Forsyth Post Ladies' dies' Society." Its first officers were: Mrs. Kate B. Sherwood, President; and Mrs. Cora Day Young, Secretary. Prior to a formal organization, the patriotic ladies of Toledo had been called upon from time to time to aid the Union Veterans in the conduct of public entertainments for the benefit of their relief fund for the care of disabled Soldiers, their widows and orphans; in the arrangement of flowers for Memorial Day ; and in many Soldier reunion and anniversary exercises. The great

252 - HISTORY OF TOLEDO AND LUCAS COUNTY.

success achieved by these ladies in a Military Lawn Fete, given in the summer of 1878, led to the adoption of formal resolutions by Forsyth Post, calling upon the ladies to meet and effect a permanent organization, ready for duty when a call should be made.

At a meeting held in G. A. R. Hall, some eight or ten ladies were present, together with a committee of Forsyth Post, appointed to confer with them and assist in the organization, Dr. J. T. Woods being Chairman of the Committee. At this meeting Mrs. Sherwood presented a draft of a Constitution and By Laws, which was adopted. An effort was then made to enroll as many members of the Ladies' Aid Society as possible, and the result was the early co-operation of Mrs. David Smith, Mrs. John R. Osborn, Mrs. J. N. Stevens, Mrs. Charlotte T. Forsyth (mother of Lieutenant Forsyth, 100th O. V. I., for whom the Post was named), and others alike interested. From its inception Forsyth Auxiliary was a power in the local charities of Toledo, and through untiring zeal of its noble workers, substantial cheer has been carried into the homes and hearts of hundreds of Union veterans and their needy ones.

In the eight years of its organization, Forsyth Corps has raised and expended $10,000, over and above the much larger sums of money it has turned into the coffers of Forsyth Post, to be expended in fraternal charities. It has visited the sick; cheered the afflicted and dying ; comforted the sorrowing ; clothed the naked; provided homes for orphaned children ; given the dead a christian burial; and in many of the greater projects in which Toledo and its citizen Soldiers have been engaged, has borne no unworthy part. The erection of Memorial Hall, by the Toledo Soldiers' Memorial Association, is largely due to the efforts of these ladies; and of the 15 Trustees constituting the Board, five have been ladies from Forsyth Corps.

The fame of this organization soon extended, and Posts desiring the formation of Auxiliaries, placed themselves in communication with the President, who forwarded instructions with copies of the Constitution. The visit in 1883, of Commander-in-Chief Paul Van Dervoort greatly extended the reputation of this Auxiliary, as in General Orders he commended it to the Posts of the Union. The National Tribune, Washington, D. C., solicited articles from the President, which were forwarded. Thus was initiated the great National movement culminating in the formation at Denver, July, 1883, of the Woman's Relief Corps, Auxiliary to the Grand Army of the Republic. The association, beginning with 45 charter members, numbered 6,000 at the end of the first year; 36,000 at the end of the third year; and to-day has not less than 60,000, with Departments in 24 States, and subordinate Corps wherever there is a Post of the Grand Army.

In August, 1883, Forsyth Corps took out a charter as No. 1, Department of Ohio; and the President (Mrs. Sherwood), who had been elected National Senior Vice President at Denver, was made Chief Instituting and Installing Officer for Ohio and the West. In 1884, at Minneapolis, Mrs. Sherwood was elected National President, and thereupon appointed Miss Emma D. Sibley, National Secretary. It was a great year, and together they organized Departments in 11 States, and put the entire work on a solid business footing.

Forsyth Corps stands number one in charity work in the State and Nation, and to Ohio (the banner State) has given some of the best workers. Mrs. Cora Day Young, Chairman of the Executive Council, has filled the offices of Department Senior Vice President and Department Counselor. Mrs. Annie E. Howe (wife of Judge Henry E.
