Lucius R. Paige, History of Cambridge, Massachusetts, 1630-1877, with a genealogical register, Chapter 21: military History. (search)
22d Regiment, Oct. 1, 1861, which he resigned June 10, 1862. He soon afterwards enlisted as a private, became a Sergeant, was mortally wounded in battle, May 18, 1864, and died on the 26th of the same month. He nobly redeemed his pledge at the ovation on the 23d of July, 1861, when he is reported to have said, he was determined to go back to the seat of war, and to fight till the war was over; and if need be he would leave his bones to bleach on southern soil. Cambridge Chronicle, July 27, 1861. He sacrificed his life, but his remains, transported by friendly hands, were honorably deposited in the Soldiers' Lot in the Cambridge Cemetery. Cambridge furnished about two hundred commissioned officers, during the War of the Rebellion. The following list is doubtless imperfect; yet it is the result of an examination of the Adjutantgeneral's Reports, supplemented by personal inquiry, and an inspection of the names on the Soldiers' Monument in Cambridge. Brigadier-Generals.
