Chapter M: J. BARKER, Express Clerk, enlisted May 4th, 1865. A very stirring and

energetic young man, and a soldier of ability. Is properly appreciated by the Company he represents.

CHARLES F. CLARK, Clerk, enlisted May 4th, 1865. Is a young man of promise, a good soldier and first class salesman. Is employed in the large dry-goods house of J. S. Granger & Company.

GEORGE POLLAY, Carpenter, enlisted February 1st, 1865. Served with the Company through the term of their enlistment in the United States army. Was there a good soldier; was discharged from the general service with the Company, and discharged from the Company soon after.

FRANK LUCAS, enlisted February 1st, 1865. A short time thereafter was discharged. Has served in the United States army.

GEORGE M. KING, Student, enlisted May 31st, 1865. A perfect gentleman, and as good a member as ever enrolled himself with the DeWitt Guard. He joined with a full determination to become as good a soldier as there was in the Company. He has applied himself most thoroughly, and we leave for those who see the Company on parade to judge how near he has reached the goal of a soldier's ambition. Is a very fine shot, and has taken prizes at the various target practices.

WARREN H. LEWIS, enlisted June 7th, 1865. Soon after left to seek his fortune in the oil regions of Pennsylvania.

CHARLES W. CONOVER, Farmer, enlisted June 7th, 1865. Although Mr. Conover has belonged to the Company but little over a year, still by strict attention, and a determination to learn, he has become a soldier of merit. No member is more regular, or manifests a livelier interest in the Company than he. A stranger to many of the members when he enlisted, but soon he gained their well wishes, and to-day no one stands higher in the estimation of the Company than Mr. Conover.

FRANK BAKER, Farmer, enlisted June 7th, 1865. All that was said in relation to the last named soldier, is perfectly in place in this instance. Mr. Baker is a very attentive and active member; very few drills or meetings that he is not present, although he has further to come than any other person connected with the Company. Such members as these will in due time receive the promotion they have earned and are entitled to.

THEODORE J. SMITH, Cigar-Maker, enlisted June 17th, 1865. Mr. Smith is a good soldier, having served a long time in the United States service, a history of which we have been unable to obtain.

S. W. PURDY, Barber, enlisted June 20th, 1865. Was a much better barber than soldier; and although a sufficiently good marksman to take the first prize, still not generous enough to pay his Company obligations before leaving the place.

GEORGE L. CLAPP, enlisted June 20th, 1865. A fine young man and a good soldier, served his country during the late war. An account of his war history we have been unable to obtain.

FITCH R. CURRAN, Book-Keeper, enlisted June 20th, 1865. After a very short membership, our friend discovered that he had not yet reached the age of eighteen. Taking advantage of his age he withdrew.

JOHN F. YOUNG, Jeweler, enlisted June 20th, 1865. Mr. Young is a gentleman of much promise and an excellent soldier. Is one of the most active members of the Company. Is employed in the large establishment of Burritt, Brooks & Co., the oldest House of the kind in Western New York.

CHARLES E. FISK, Book-Binder, enlisted June 28th, 1865. Is one of the most respectable members at the present time, and is in all respects a fine young man. Is an employee in the establishment of Andrus, McChain & Co.

FRANK B. WYCKOFF, Clerk, enlisted September 6th, 1865. Mr. Wyckoff has been, and we hope will continue to remain, a good member of this Company, notwithstanding a little informality in his muster. Is employed in the Dry-Goods House of Morrison, Hawkins & Co.
