CHAPTER VII.
MILITARY HISTORY (Concluded).
The Civil War.-The Election of Lincoln and the Fall of Sumter.-The first Call for
Three-Months’ Men.-Response from the Cape Towns.-War Meetings.-Subsequent
Calls.-Bounties.-Enlistments.-Return of the Volunteers.-G. A. R. Posts.-Monuments.
T HE news of the bombardment of Fort Sumter, in April, 1861,
greatly affected and changed the feelings of the political parties
of the Cape; and when the surrender of the fort by Major
Anderson, on the 13th, was announced, the feeling was almost unanimous
in favor of crushing the rebellion, the method remaining the
only party question. Of the citizens of the Cape large numbers were
engaged in various pursuits on the sea; but those at home recognized
the issue as inevitable and were at once determined in their action.
On the morning of Monday, April 15th, appeared the proclamation
of Abraham Lincoln, calling for seventy-five thousand men for three
months, to suppress the rebellion. Its effect was like an electric spark
in quickening the resolution and action of the men of this county.
The president’s estimate was short of the necessities of the movement,
as the history of the war abundantly proved; but to his calm and judicious
patriotism a grateful nation has erected enduring monuments of
granite, and engraved his deeds upon lasting pages of history.
The first official act of this Commonwealth relating to the war was
the recommendation by Governor Andrew, in January, 1861, that the
adjutant general ascertain with accuracy the number of officers and
men of the volunteer militia of the state who would instantly respond
to any call of the president of the United States for troops. January
23, 1861, the legislature passed a resolution tendering to the president
the aid of the Commonwealth in enforcing the laws; and FebruarylFith
an act was approved providing for the retention in service of all militia
organizations then existing, and for the formation, “as the public
exigency may require,” of other companies by the municipal officers
of cities and the selectmen of towns. On April 3, 1861, the first appropriation
made by the legislature for war purposes was a sum of
twenty-five thousand dollars to equip two thousand soldiers for active
service. In May of that year the legislature, before its adjournment,
gave full power to the governor and his council to issue scrip. or certificates
of debt, in various sums not to exceed seven million dollars,
to be expended for the government: and gave authority to towns to
raise money by taxation for war purposes, for which the state would
reimburse them to a limited extent. I,et such patriotism, manifested
thus early in the Old Bay State, be forever on record for the benefit
of the present and unborn generations ! Her militia were first in the
field. On the 15th of April, 1861, a telegram was received from Senator
Wilson at Washington, requesting twenty companies to be sent
to the national capital to act in defense of that city. The request was
immediately complied with by sending state militia, whose military
history is foreign to this chapter.
The first seven companies enlisted in the state under the call of
the president, which were subsequently the first mustered into the
service of the United States for the term of three years, were the
nucleus of what was actually the first, but misleadingly numbered the
Twenty-ninth Regular M. V. These seven companies were those of
Captain Chamberlain, raised in Lynn, April 18th; Captains Tyler and
Clarke, raised in Boston, April 19th; Captain Chipman, Sandwich,
April 20th; Captains Leach, Barnes and Doten, raised respectively in
East Bridgewater, East Boston and Plymouth, about April 20th. Thus
the Cape raised the fourth of the first seven companies enlisted in
Massachusetts within four days after the call.
With only a few hours’ notice, a very large meeting was held Saturday
evening, April 20, at Sandwich, ia to devise means and ways to
raise a company of troops for the defence of the country.” Theodore
Kern called the meeting to order, Dr. Jonathan Leonard was chosen
to preside, and E. S. LVhittemore was chosen to act as secretary. During
the evening $626 was pledged toward a bounty for the men who
should enlist. A committee of nine was chosen to thoroughly canvass
the town and raise more bounty money-sufficient to pay twenty dollars
to each man. Three men were appointed to wait upon the governor
and offer the services of the company. On the sixth of May the
company were ready for commands from Governor Andrew, and on
the eighth proceeded to Boston, The election of officers of this company
was presided over by the selectmen of the town of Sandwich,
and the following list of commissioned officers may be pointed to as
the first from Barnstable county: Charles Chipman, captain: Charles
Brady, first lieutenant: Henry A. Kern, second lieutenant: Alfred E.
Smith, third lieutenant; James H. Xtherton, fourth lieutenant; and
the company adopted the name **Sandwich Guards.” This company
was at once sent to Fortress Nonroe. and formed Company D in the
Third regiment of the militia. In July, lS61, it was made part of the
Massachusetts Battalion, and in December of the same year was em.\

braced in the Twenty-ninth Nassachusetts Infantry. This valiant
company participated in the battles of Fair Oaks, Gaines’ Mills, Peach
Orchard, Savage Station, Malvern Hill, Centerville, South Mountain,
Antietam, Fredericksburg, and others.
The first special town meeting of Sandwich for war purposes was
held May 11, 1861, at which four thousand dollars was voted for the
support of the families of those who had enlisted, and five hundred
dollars to uniform the first company accepted from the town.
The town furnished, according to the report of its selectmen, 292
men for the army-exceeding the several quotas by two men. Twelve
of its men were commissioned officers. The money expended was
$33,081.99, besides $19,93&X for state aid. The other towns of the
county also called special town meetings, or later ratified the action
of their selectmen.
Concerning \-armouth’s action, Hon. Charles F. Swift says: “ The
part taken by the town in the war of the rebellion is briefly summarized.
Informal meetings were held during the summer and fall of
1%X, in which material aid for the troops in the field was provided
for, volunteering encouraged and hospital supplies sent forward. May
2, 1862, the first legal town meeting was held. James B. Cracker was
chosen moderator, and a series of resolutions, presented by Charles F.
Swift, adopted. These pledged the aid of the town to the government,
and recommended especially volunteering for the navy, as the
especial department of the service adapted to our people. July 2d, a
town meeting was held to procure enlistments, D. G. Eldridge, moderator.
Three years’ men were offered one hundred dollars on being
mustered in and one hundred dollars when honorably discharged.
The town’s quota was filled in a few days. Xugust 14th a bounty of
$125 each was offered by the town to nine months‘ men. December 1,
1863, a meeting was called to aid in the enlistment of ‘ 300,UOO more ’
troops, Charles F. Swift, moderator. Oliver Gorham, N. C. Fowler,
David Matthews and isubsequently) Freeman Howes were appointed
a committe to co-operate with the selectmen in filling the quota. April
24, 1804, :t meeting was held to aid in filling the town quota ‘under
the two last calls of the President,’ C. I;. Swift, moderator. At this
meeting $12.5 was voted to each recruit, and June 1st it was announced
that the quota was filled, through the expenditure of two thousand
four hundred dollars by the citizens’ committee. Under the last call
for troops citizens’ meetings were held in July; $325 being offered for
recruits, and three hundred dollars paid to those who had furnished
substitutes. The collapse of the rebellion rendered further effort useless.
Tarmouth furnished 2.50 men for the army and navy, five over
all demands. There were fifteen volunteer officers in the navy and
three pilots from this town. The expenditures of the town for war
purposes was $17,017, besides $3,592.10 voluntarily contributed by individuals,
in all, $20,609.10. The sum of $4,514.71 was expended in
aid of soldiers’ families.”
Provincetown had the first special town meeting May 2, 1561, at
which strong resolutions were passed and ample provisions made for
the enlistment of troops. Several meetings were held during the war;
the contributions of the citizens for filling quotas were reimbursed,
and the town sent to the service fifty-seven men more than were
called. Three were commissioned officers in the service. The number
reported by the selectmen was 247; but the number much exceeded
that. The whole amount of money raised was $37,452, and for state
aid, which was reimbursed, $7,368.24. It is also a fact that Provincetown
paid to the families of volunteers double the amount reimbursed.
The ladies of the town organized, in 1562, a Soldiers’ Aid Society,
which contributed $2,291.65 in money and clothing. The exposure of
this extreme portion of the Cape induced the government to erect
earthworks, which were garrisoned by a company of volunteers.
Barnstable commenced raising troops early, and held its first
special town meeting &lay 10, 1861. At this meeting liberal bounties
were offered, promises were made for the support of soldiers’ families,
and money was placed at the disposal of the governor for the assistance
of the troops of the state. On the 21st of J~tly, 1862, still stronger
resolutions of patriotism and aid were passed, and the bounties were
increased. The work of the selectmen and clerk was most arduous,
but was cheerfully accomplished. The number of men reported as
sent was 272-thirty-five over and above all demands. The acting
adjutant general of the state reported that Barnstable had underrated
the number sent. Three of these men were commissioned officers.
The sum appropriated was $38,574.15, besides $19,662.93 for state aid,
which was refunded. The work of the Harnstable ladies was important.
Three aid societies were organized-one each in its three largest
villages-which contributed the sum of $1,2S3, and many thousand
articles of clothing, bandages and luxuries.
Harwich showed the same earnest determination by calling a town
meeting May 10, lS61, at which resolutions were passed to place a.
coast guard of one hundred men, and raise money to pay bounties for
the enlisting of troops. Several meetings were held during IS62 and
the bounties were increased; committees were appointed to recruit
men and assist the selectmen; and a very liberal appropriation of
money was made. In the meeting of November 7, lS65, the town
voted “ that the selectmen treat all widows in town whose husbands
have fallen in the war, with especial benevolence, and, if they have
no house, see that they have a home outside of the almshouse.” This
was very commendable. The town furnished 341 meil-a surplus of
\III.IThKY HISTOKl-. 87
twenty-nine over all demands-of whom four were commissioned
officers. The sum raised during the war was $42,560.02, and $11,462.99
for state aid, which was refunded. The ladies of the several religious
societies sent many needed articles to the army hospitals.
The first town meeting of Brewster to consider war matters was
held Nay 21, 1861, which made liberal provision for the aid fund, enlisting
soldiers, and for the support of their families. Meetings were
called often during the continuance of the war and the selectmen were
always empowered to expend money in every manner for the interest
of the town in its relation to the common cause, and the care of the
families of absent soldiers. Brewster furnished 141 men for the war,
a surplus of seventeen; and expended $19,453.73, besides a large contribution
from liberal-minded citizens. The sum for state aid was
$4,356.23, which was refunded. An aid society by the ladies did much
good.
Wellfleet sent several men to Fortress Monroe in April, 1861, and
was rapidly enlisting a company when the first special town meeting
was called in May following. Bounties for those who had enlisted
and who might, were liberally provided; and a request was sent to the
governor for equipments for a full company. The meetings of each
succeeding year of the war increased the bounties, not forgetting the
needs of the soldiers’ families. No officers were commissioned from
this town: but 221 men were furnished on the different calls, which
was twenty-five more than required. About $2,000 was contributed
by individuals and $18,324.67 was raised by the town for war purposes,
besides $1,138.73 for state aid, which was reimbursed. The ladies organized
an aid society to work for the sick and wounded in hospitals.
At the expiration of the war the unexpended funds of the society were
given in aid of a monument for deceased soldiers.
In Chatham several citizens’ meetings were held during the first
year of the rebellion, and every necessary action was taken for supplying
the town’s quota of volunteers and the necessary funds for
bounties and soldiers’ families. July 22, 1862, a town meeting was
held to reimburse the liberal contributions of the citizens and approve
of what the selectmen had already accomplished. The meeting voted
a monthly sum of eighteen dollars to each family of the men absent
on duty, which was six dollars a month more than was reimbursed by
the state. In February, 1863, the selectmen had borrowed on their
individual notes $8,000, which had been expended in bounties and
other necessary expenditures. At a meeting then held this town
promptly assumed the entire liability, arranged for meetings on every
Tuesday evening in furtherance of the cause, and appointed a committee
to assist the selectmen. In 7866, after the close of the war, the
town voted to refund every citizen the money he had contributed and
pay every person who had furnished a substitute the money he had
necessarily expended. Chatham furnished 264 men, which was a surplus
of thirty-two; five were commissioned officers. The money expended
was $2’7’,611.69, and for state aid $6,487.4%.
In Dennis, every action required for furnishing means and men
for the war was taken, during 18~31, by the citizens and selectmen,
and not until July 26, 1862, did the towu act in a corporate capacity;
then, under the president’s call for three hundred thousand men, the
town appointed six gentlemen to act with the selectmen in recruiting
volunteers, and arranged a bounty of $250 each for former and future
enlistments. The reports of the action of the town during the war
are not as full as some of the others, but the result shows that Dennis
was not only very earnest in the g-ood lvork, but could show a better
record at its conclusion. The reports of the town show that 220 men
were furnished for the war; but in the army and navy Dennis had
over 3.70. Every call of the president was promptly filled, and in the
final aggregate a surplus of forty-three men had been furnished. The
money raised and expended was $22,652.66, with $3,873.61 for state
aid, which the Commonwealth refunded as it dicl to other towns.
During the year lSG1 the town of Eastham held no special meetings
in a corporate capacity, but its citizens and officers filled ever!
call for men, and furnished ample means for necessary expenses and
bounties. In 1862, July 2Sth, when the largest call of the war was tnade
for men, the citizens in a special towu meeting voted full authority
for the action of the selectmen as well as provided for what had been
previously done. Meetings were held as often as necessary, money
was raised as needed, and the bounty for soldiers placed at $160. No
commissioned officers went from the town, but eleven men were sent
in excess of the quota. The number of men furnished was seventyseven;
the money expended was $3,~76..X; and the state aid fund was
$833.23.
In Falmouth, as in other towns, many of the best young men were
on the seas at the brcakrng out of the rebellion: but every requirement
of men and money lx-as fulfilled, with n surplus of ten men over
the quota. August 2, 1862, a special to\vn meeting was held at which
a bounty of $125 was promised to every volunteer who n-as accepted by
the government and one hundred dollars ~-hen regularly discharged
from the service; to this private citizens added ten dollars for each
volunteer. Enlistments were rapid, and crery subsequent demand
was as promptly met. Falmouth was compelled to enlist many from
outside. and furnished in all 2% men- 1% for the army and twtnty
for the navy from its own citizens. The amount raised and expended
was $20.154.% exclusive of the aid fund, which was $4,674.20. The
ladies of Fnlmouth furnished their share of aid to the soldiers in the
~lII,Il‘hllY IIISTOK\~. s9
field. This town, like others, had sacrifices that called for the continued
aid and sympathy of its citizens; one case was where three
sons of a very poor citizen enlisted, and all were killed; one left a
wife and five small children, and upon the other two the aged parents
of the three valiant sons depended for support.
Xo corporate action of the town of Truro was taken during the
year 1861, but all quotas were filled by the officers and citizens until
July 23. lS62, when at a special town meeting their action was ratified
and expenditures refunded by the vote of the town. A bounty of
two hundred dollars was offered for nine-months’ men, and the most
liberal provisions were made at each future meeting for the volunteers
and their families. At a meeting, February 4, 1863, the town
voted to bring home the remains of Edxvard Winslow, the first of its
soldiers who had fallen: and that the widow and orphan children of
the deceased receive a gratuity of one hundred dollars. Through the
selectmen, assisted by proper committees, Truro furnished 144 men
for the war---an excess of fourteen over all demands. The fund expended
was $4.7‘is6.10, and the amount sent to the state aid was
$2.:3’28.21, which was refunded.
The preceding summary of the action of the several towns of Barnstable
county is brief but reliable, and gives facts of which its citizens
may well be proud. The several selectmen of the towns in 1866 reported
2,305 men as having been sent into the service: but the number
must have been greater, as the percentage of men furnished
throughout the commonwcnlth was ‘34. to every one hundred inhabitants.
and this county not only filled every quota but furnished an excess
of 300 men. The total expenses of the towns aggregate the
enormous sutn of $%!I,~l9.!E, of which $~O,934.84 was paid as state aid,
and mostly refunded.
The general court in lS63 made provision for reimbursing the
towns the bounties they had paid to volunteers enlisting under the
calls of the president of July and August, 1862, not exceeding one
hundred dollars for each volunteer. The assessors’ report from Barnstable
county show that bounties were paid to 532 men, a total of @4-
305.35 under those calls.
The legislature of lS64 passed an act, approved Nay 14th, which
provided for the enrollment of all able bodied male citizens of the
Commonwealth between the ages of eighteen and forty-five years.
The lists were made by the assessors and filed with town clerks July
I, lP64. Copies of these lists returned to the adjutant general show
l:U,767 effective men, in the state, liable to military duty. The state
was then divided into 240 districts, and the militia residents of each
district were organized as a company, and in December were ordered
to elect their captain. Sandwich was made District 45; Barnstable
and Falmouth, 46; Yarmouth, 47; Harwich, 45; Brewster, Dennis and
Chatham, 49; Eastham and Orleans, 50; Truro and Wellfleet, 51;
Provincetown, 52.
A few weeks before the call of October 17, 1863, for three hundred
thousand new troops, provision was made that the district provost
marshal, or their agents should receive fifteen dollars for each new
recruit, and twenty-five dollars for each re-enlistment: but from this
rule Massachusetts was, by request of Governor Andrew, excepted,
and these fees made payable to the selectmen of the several to,vns
who secured the enlistments. The amount paid to the several towns
under this arrangement was used exclusively to promote enlistments,
and the local recruiting officers received only a per diem allowance
while actually employed.
After the original call for a draft in Massachusetts, the selectmen
of the several towns filed sworn statements, showing the number of
men each town had furnished to the army prior to February 1,1863.
The following list of names comprehends the men furnished by
Barnstable county during the years of 1861-1865, as reported by the
adjutant general of the state. We have classified with care the mustering
in of companies and regiments, and have especially arranged
the names by towns to better enable the reader to find those of any
particular locality when the number of the regiment is known. To
the names of those who died in the service from disease, prison life,
or were killed, the time and place are given.

The town of Barnstable is having made a careful manuscript
108 IIIS’I’OR\’ ()I+’ BARNST.lI3I.E COUS’I‘V.
record of her soldiers, for preservation in her town archives. The
compiling, entrusted to Gustavus A. Hinckley, is to be finished in
1890. Other towns have revised their soldier lists since the publication
of the adjutant general’s report on which this chapter is based.
Besides those soldiers above mentioned the Fourth Regiment had
Neil McIntosh, of Dennis, and James Calvin, of Hnrwich; the Seventeenth
had William Fay and Frank \‘arnum; the Nineteenth had
Charles Davis, William Miles and Conrad 1Tilson; and in the Twentieth,
John H. Dimon was in Co. E; 117illianl Marshall was in Co. I?;
John McCawley was in Co. G; and John LIcDonald in Co. II.
.We have purposely omitted the records of desertions which the
official reports contain. They were largely from among the substitutes
enlisted from non-residents of the county.
In 1865, after the close of the war, the survivors of this body of
patriots returned to their homes and were received with every demonstration
of honor and thankfulness. The ex-soldiers have continued
the memories and friendships of the war b;t the establishment of
Posts of the Grand Army of the Republic at Sandwich, South Chatham,
and Provincetown, to which the veterans of the surrounding
towns belong. These organizations are more fully mentioned in the
histories of the villages where located.
In grateful remembrance of fallen heroes, five towns have erected
monuments to their memory, Barnstable h;Lving the most elaborate.
It was erected at Centreville, dedicated Tuly 4. 1866. being the first in
the state in point of time. Its cost was ~l.OT,O, the site being donated
by I?. G. Kelley, and the beautifully proportioned pile of Concord
granite bids fair to stand forever. LYpon the four faces of the shaft the
name, age and date of death of each of Barnstable’s soldiers are deeply
carved-on the north, Thomas Coleman, jr., Ilnoch Cracker, Eliphalet
Deane, Ebenezer Eldridge, Josiah C. Fish, Cyrus I<. Fish, Alfred C. I’hinney,
and Shubael Linnell; on the west the names of Timothrr Robbins,
Joseph C. Scudder, lfartin S. Tinkum, Aaron II. Young and Sathan
I?. JVinslow. On this west face are also the names of James C. Cracker
and Anthony Chase of the navy. The south contains the names of
William I,. Lumbert, Allen 1\Iarchant, Solomon Otis, Samuel IS. Otis,
James Pendergrass. _ -ilbro if-. Phinney. Sathan A. Pitcher, Xndrew
P. Cobb and James A. Hathaway; and on the east face are those of
Clarence \V. Bassett, George H. Bearsc. James Ii. Blagden, Charles G.
Cook, Simeon C. Childs, 101~ F. Childs, Obed A. Cahoon and Horace
I,. Cracker. The grounds around this monument are beautifully laid
out and well kept.
The people of Chatham have indicated their gratitude by the erection
of a shaft on the corner of SInin and Sea \‘iew streets. The deeply
engraved inscription, ‘.Erectccl by the town to those who fell lS6Ll8G5,”
surmounts the column, and on the east side are the names of Captain
Charles 11. Upham, Lieutenant Franklin 1). Hammond, David G.
Young, Benjamin F. Bassett, Zebina H. Dill, and Edwin S. Nickerson.
The Ivest face bears the names of Captain William H. Harley, Sergeant
Nathaniel H. Smith, Sergeant Francis 11. Armstrong, Seth T.
Howes, Sathan Eldridge, John Bolton, and James Hlauvelt.
Orleans, a few years after the war, erected on the square opposite
the town house a fine shaft surmounted by the life-size figure of a
soldier at parade rest. On the north face of the monument are the
names of James E. Studley, John N. Cowan, Joseph Moody, and Lewis
Eldridge: and on the south, Isaac Y. Smith, Joshua Gould, Freeman
A. Sherman and John W. Walker.
In 1806 the Ladies’ Soldiers’ Aid Society, assisted by the subscribers
to the war fund, erected a monument at 1VellAeet in the burial ground
at the head of Duck creek. Upon the south square of the main shaft
are the names of ‘IVilliam A. Holbrook, Daniel 31. Hall, and Charles
R. Merrill; and on the north the names of those whodied in the naval
service-Levi Y. Wiley, John Y. Cole, John D. Langley, and John N.
Langley. The monument. surrounded by an iron fence, stands adjacent
to the highway.
Provincetown, at a cost of about $2,SOO, erected a fine monument
to the memory of her soldiers. The face bears this inscription:
ERECTED BY THETO~X OF PILUVIXETO~X IN 1867 IN GRATITUDE TO THE MENORY
