A History Of The One Hundred And Seventeenth Regiment Ny Volunteers Fourth Oneida PDF Download

Excerpt from A History of the One Hundred and Seventeenth Regiment, N. Y. Volunteers (Fourth Oneida): From the Date of Its Organization, August, 1862, Till That of Its Muster Out, June The book which is now presented to the public, laid its origin in the oft-repeated wish of many members of the regiment that its record might be preserved; and in a personal sympathy with the proposed object. While, therefore, claiming no special adaptation for the work, the writer has been prevailed upon, by these considerations, to undertake it. While unwilling to admit that any other regiment was superior to the 117th, he is not disposed to represent it as peculiarly meritorious; neither he nor the public can ever be unmindful of the valor and valuable services of the 14th, 26th, 97th, and 146th Regiments, nor are any, more ready to accord to them the esteem and gratitude they so abundantly earned than the members of the 4th Oneida.
