William Schouler, A history of Massachusetts in the Civil War: Volume 1, Chapter 6: (search)
13th of May, the first instalment of the wounded at Williamsburg reached New York. Colonel Howe on that day telegraphs to the Governor, I am compelled to send off thirty-three wounded to-night, by eight-o'clock train, all able to walk,—all from Williamsburg. Twenty-six of them belong in Boston. The transport Daniel Webster in, with three hundred more. Next day,—May 14,—he telegraphs, I send, by eight-o'clock train, six bully Chelsea boys, of the First Regiment, in care of a Councilman, John Buck, also five more brave fellows. All will have to ride from the depot. We are with the sick and wounded day and night, ladies and all. Have one hundred at rooms, and one hundred and fifty coming in this morning. Not one complains. Every assistance in the power of the Governor, the Surgeon-General, and other State officers, was rendered the brave men, upon their arrival in Boston.

If the Confederate Soldier yielded to outrageous fortune he never dared the impiety to question Omnipotence.—Ed.] Simple services over the remains of John Buck were held in the Bulfinch Place chapel yesterday at noon, says the Boston Herald, of January 30th. Although it was only a soldier's funeral, with a flag-draped casket at the altar and a few white-haired veterans in the pews, yet this simple senot one for which he had fought; the comrades at his bier were not his comrades in arms: their uniform had not been his uniform, nor their cause his cause. But the God of battles, who is also a God of love, had softened men's hearts, and when John Buck, a private in the Confederate cavalry, answered the final roll-call, Union soldiers mourned and did him homage at the grave. United in death. And in the doing of it the State Department of the Grand Army of the Republic, the Military orde

ll more familiar ground—only a mile from this lane my mother and family lived. Just upon the hill in front stood my uncle John Buck's residence (where my wife was reared), and where so many of my earlier, happy days were spent. Now, I passed these: Colonel, I can capture that battery with fifty men. Thereupon, with an oath of approval, Colonel Hoffman replied: Well, Buck, take as many men as will follow you and try it. Not a moment was to be spared, as the enemy were bearing swiftly down onman and asked, How are things going? First rate, General; we took that whole battery. No, we didn't take it, but d—me if Buck didn't take it with the Thirteenth! While I was forming the brigade he charged with part of the Thirteenth. General Pegrsaid, in the presence of the regiment and many of the brigade: If I live to get through this battle, that shall be called Buck's Battery ! Very complimentary, so far as it went, but Phil. Sheridan recaptured that battery the same evening. Our br

Horrible Tragedy. --We learn from the Memphis Avalanche that two wood-choppers named John Buck and George Ablinger have for some time past been pursuing their occupation near Wolf river, about four miles from that city. On Monday morning Ablinger was found stretched upon his back, in a little shanty they occupied jointly, with an axe buried in his forehead, and stark dead. Buck is suspected of having murdered his partner, and was arrested.
