a Victoria medal by the British government for his services in this expedition, which, however, he did not receive from the Navy Department, to whom it was sent for delivery, until after his disabilities were removed during the administration of President Cleveland. He also received a medal from the St. George's Society, of New York city, composed of British residents of that city, for the same service in search of Sir John Franklin. From 1853 to 1856 he was on the steamer Water Witch; in 1857 and 1858 lighthouse inspector; 1859 flag lieutenant of the Brazilian squadron; in, 1860 and 1861 on the United States frigate Sabine, and of his service on this ship I will quote from a paper written by him for this camp and read to it some time before his death.

etter from General Lee, which differed from the first (of June 22), in suggesting to Stuart to cross the Potomac in Hooker's rear. He quotes from this letter of June 23rd, but does not give it in full. According to the official records, it was as follows: Headquarters, Army of Northern Virginia, June 23, 1863, 3:30 P. M., Majo volunteered to return and find out for him. With two men I recrossed the mountain on the path where I had been bushwhacked the day before; and on the morning of June 23, was again riding between the camps of the different corps in Fairfax and Loudoun.
