POOLER During the past week, fifty years ago, there were coming in the stories and letters concerning the fight at the battle of Bull Run, in which the Connecticut regiments containing local companies played an important part. The capture of one battery was due to them after it had exchanged hands eight times. There were three Norwich men Kkill! ed, others wounded and some miss- ing after the battle. It also marked the ending of the term for which one of the regiments volunteered and the First returned to New Haven and were paid off—the sum ~ of $20,000 being needed by Colonel Irish for that pur- pose. Another week and the Second regiment is expected back, August 7 being the end of their term. Plans to give them a rousing reception were started, Offers to se: another month were made by both companies. The preserice here of men in sympa- thy with the south was shown by the conversation which a Norwich man overheard here and the spirit it was received in was plainiy discernible. The week also marked the placing of the steamer New York on the Neor- wich line and also the announcement of bids for the state bonds, for which many Norwich men and stitutions subscribed. The following items are taken from The Bulletin of fifty years ago, corre- sponding to the past week: Offer to Extend Service. July 24, 1861—It is stated that the First and Second regiments have ten- dered their services to the government for thirty days after the expiration of their term. The time of the Firsi is out July 26 and the second August Te Up to eight o'clock Monday morn- ing (July 22), the following wounded had been token to Washinaton hos- pital fron: Bull Run: First regiment, J. W. Burgess, C. C. Lillis, Charles McElroy; Third, Jaccb Schroff, Thom- as S. Winton. Bids for the state loan of $800,000 E. A. Buckingham $5,000; ingham $15,900; Thames bank $75.00! C. 8.

Parlin returned from Washington Tuesday, July 23. He saw in Washington a number of Comnnecticut pboys, separated from their regiments. E. S.

He at once seized another and used it as long as he was able. He learned taat John Breed, Captain Harland's com- v, was wounded in the wrist early in the fight. David C. Case of Norwich Town is reported killed, but this may be without foundation. Sergt. Major J. L. Spalding and Lieut. Colonel Spei- del of the First regiment were togeth- er and were surrounded by a '=f11lad of cavalry. Other offers for state bonds were made by Norwich men, as follows: W. M.

State—Plans UnderVay to Give Companies of Second a -Receptlon——Nomch Men Killed at Bull Run. : idmund Clarence Stedman, war cor- respondent of the New York World, reported the batile near Manassas, filling seven columns of his paper. He said: = The three Connecticut regi- ments and the Fourth Maine came on with a will; the First Connecticut was posted in reserve and the other three corps swept up the field, by the ford on the right, to aid the struggling ad- vance. The Sixty-ninth regiment took and lost a battery eight times in suc- cession and were finally compelled from exhaustion to resign the comple- tion of the work to the Connecticut regiments which had come.up. The Third finally carried that summit, un- furled the flag and paused from the fight to eheer for the union cause. Took a Battery. July 26, 1861—A telegram from Cap- tain Chester to Isaac H. Promley stated: I have lost John Jennings, J. E. Wilkinson (of Putnam) and David Rosenblatt. John Jennings was the son of James Jennings of Preston, who told him when he started: “Do your duty, my son; if you fall, your brother shall take your place, and ,after him, 1 shall go mylelf.”” Mr. Wilkinson was a printer in Putnam. Mr. Rosen- blatt worked in the Falls mill Capt. Edward Harland wired The Bulletin: “In the battle of on Sun- day we lost but one man, David C. Case of Norwich.” He was the son of Deacon Samuel Case of Norwi Town. Joseph Case intends to enlist immediately and will avenge his brother’s death. A Washington despatch says the Third regiment lost 60 men, over half of whom were killed, the Second had one Kkilled, ten wounded, and the First four wounded, four or five missing. The loss was chiefly caused in the charge on the battery which they took. Thig brigade was conducted into the | field by Colonel Keyes, who withdrew them in good order as if to change their position, and the men were not aware of their retreat until they ar- rived on the main road. Letters from Captain Peale. July 27, 1861—Letters were received vesterday from‘Captain Peale and oth- ers of his company, giving the gratify- ing assurance that the whole com- pany have come out of the battle in safety with the single exception of Charles A. Murral, who is missing, and is supposed to have been either killed or taken prisoner. Captain Peale gives a glowing account of the valor displayed by the Connecticut regi- ments on the field. He does not say at what time.the Second regiment will start for home. On Thursday morning, July 25, we understand that James Jennings over- heard a loud conversation in the street near the garden where he was at work and heard one of the disputants say: { “I hope every northern man who has gone into Virginia in the army will be killed.” These were hard words in the ears of a man who had lost a son in the cause. The speaker was on his | way from Franklin square to the works i near the car factory How long will the people of. Norwich allow this sort of thing to g0 on? Let's wipe away all this treason which flaunts itself in our faces, or teach it snlence Who starts a ' Hemp club? Who First Reglmant Returns. July 29, 1861—The First regiment arrived at New Haven Sunday, July 28, and will be mustered out of serv- ice teday. E. Kempton Abbott, the first man from here to volunteer, will be mustered out today. He has not lost a day’s duty, was in the battle of Bull Run from first to last, and was with the regiment when they encamp- ed at Falls Church on the retreat Sun- day night, ‘The Fifth regiment leaves Hartford this afternoon for New Haven, where they will take a beat for New York. July 30, 1861—The First regiment was paid off at New Haven by Colonel Irish vesterday. The Thirteenth Mags- sachusetts passed through here after midnight and took the steamer Con- necticut at Allyns Point for New York. It is believed the Second regiment will start for home about August 7, and we should give the local compa- nies such a reception as their gzallant i s received Btate that Jennings was last seen on the field taking-care of Wilkinson, both being in the same company SOCIALISTS MEET.

Attendance Not as much interest is displayed in the annual meeting of the Universal Peace unioa, which holds forth for four days next month on their grounds io the north of Mystic, as there was sev- eral years ago, 'when people from far and near came to this spot in large numbers. The meeting this year will bz held from the 17th of August to the 20th, inclusive, and a very fine pro- gramme has been arranged, on which there are some prominent men sched- uled to speak. In years gone by Mystic peopl2 to: a great interest in this meeting, as it was sort of a family gathering whe: friends and relatives met who had no seen other for somz time. Wita the, \'endus and fakirs that had stands there, presented much the appear- ance ot the county fair. The attend- ance at tha meetings held during the past few years has fallen off to a great extent, and while there is quite a large number in attendancz at the meetings held now, there seems to be a lack of interest among many to attend.
