Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from In Memoriam: Ob; May Vi;, A. D. MDCCCLXIV The following appreciative and most kind account of the military life and services of Major Abbott, was written by a brother-officer of the Twentieth Regiment of Massachusetts Volunteers, who knew the subject of it well, and was in the position and had the knowledge and experience to weigh his services, and to estimate them at their true value. It has been considered not unseemly by his family, that this account should be printed, for distribution among those to whom his memory will always be very dear. Nor will it be improper to add, to what has been told so well by his friend and brother-officer, a few other facts connected with his short life. Major Abbott was the second son of J. G. and Caroline Abbott, and was born in Lowell, January 21, A. D. 1842. He was graduated at Harvard College in the Class of 1860. At the breaking out of the Rebellion, in April, 1861, he was studying law, having commenced the study immediately upon his graduation from college. At the time Major Abbott joined the Fourth Battalion of Infantry, his elder brother, Edward Gardner Abbott, raised a full company, of which he was appointed captain, and a younger brother, afterwards Captain Fletcher M. Abbott, second lieutenant, for the Second Regiment of Massachusetts Volunteers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
