William Schouler, A history of Massachusetts in the Civil War: Volume 2, Chapter 4: Bristol County. (search)
ial announcement of the death of President Lincoln, and a committee was appointed to consider and report upon the proper measures to be taken in regard to it. The committee reported a series of appropriate resolutions, which were adopted. These are believed to have been the first resolutions passed by any municipal body in regard to that terrible event. June 22d, Alderman Gifford presented to the council a rebel flag captured at Charleston, S. C., Feb. 18, 1865, and sent to him by Captain James W. Grace, of Company C, Fifty-fourth Regiment Massachusetts Volunteers (colored). New Bedford furnished about thirty-two hundred men for the war, which was a surplus of eleven hundred and ten men over and above all demands. This large surplus is in a certain degree owing to the act of Congress passed in July, 1864, allowing credits for men serving in the United-States navy. One hundred and twenty were officers in the military service. We do not know the number who served in the navy.
