Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Report of the Committee: Appointed to Revise the Soldiers´ Record The task of compiling a complete and accurate account of the Soldiers of Danvers, is an impossible one, but careful and effective work has been attempted by your committee in the hope that their report will be received as a fair testimonial of their services, and as a lasting memorial to the brave men who have claimed Danvers as their home. That two years should be needed to prepare a report such as this is, is not to be wondered at, when it is considered that nearly if not quite one thousand letters of varying character have been mailed, that but a very small percentage of the persons addressed have paid any attention to the questions of the committee, and, that in the records of the State and National Departments exist errors innumerable. The records of the town have been carefully consulted for information leading to any suggestions of error on the records of the adjutant-general´s department at the State House, and whenever such have been found, from any source, that department has willingly and promptly requested information from Washington, which has as promptly been supplied. By these means many errors and omissions have been corrected at both those offices. That mistakes should have occurred was unavoidable. It is strange that they were not found in greater number. That there are numerous instances in the report we make to you is probable. Cases will be found where men were credited to towns entirely without their knowledge, and so erroneous is the record of bounties that the committee have omitted that item entirely in the printed report, but the amounts can be examined by any proper person, in the original manuscript.
