General Finegan had thrown forward Colonel Smith's cavalry, supported by the 64th and two companies of the 32d Georgia regiments, to skirmish with the advancing enemy and endeavor to draw them on to attack in the selected position. Apprehending, however, that the Union commander would be too cautious to attack a relatively strong position which could be so easily turned, he ordered forward General Colquitt with three of his regiments and a

, but they were earning higher wages than ever before, and were equally afraid of what might happen to them if they were captured by the Confederate forces. Colonel Hallowell says: The Governor counselled with certain leading colored men of Boston. He put the question, Will your people enlist in my regiments? They will not, was telegraphed to the Governor: I can fill up another regiment for you in less than six weeks, --a hint which resulted in the Massachusetts Fifty-fifth, with Norwood P. Hallowell, a gallant officer who had been wounded at Antietam, for its commander. The Governor, however, appears to have suddenly changed his mind, for on May 7thovernor Andrew has written: This letter is respy. referred to Surgeon-General Dole with the request that he would confer with Surgeon Stone and Lieutenant-Colonel Hallowell.

Under command of Col. Norwood P. Hallowell, the regiment left the camp July 21 and embarked for New Berne, arriving on the 25th. It was ordered to Charleston harbor on the 29th, became part of Ge 10th Army Corps, and served in the operations against Charleston for the remainder of the year.

The sight of that obnoxious person so inflamed the people, that in at business was finished; and in a little time the gentlemen dismounted their horses and returned to the body. But Mr. Hallowell did not entirely escape, as one gentleman of a small stature pushed on before the general body, and followed HallowelHallowell, who made the best of his way till he got into Roxbury, where Mr.——overtook and stopped him in his chaise.

Joseph Edgar Chamberlin, editor, who originated the Listener column of the Boston Transcript, published two volumes selected from it, wrote a monograph on John Brown, included in the Beacon Biographies, and a book of curious interest entitled The Ifs of History. Some notable briefs on the Division of Medford and other cases, by Judge Benjamin Franklin Hayes, have been published for reference and are to be found in the Medford Authors' bookcase; also stirring speeches by Col. Norwood P. Hallowell, and an article on American College Athletics by J. Mott Hallowell. The Proceedings of the Two Hundred and Seventyfifth Anniversary of the Settlement of Medford were issued by the Publishing Committee in 1906. The addresses, poems and various events of the four days celebration are fully recorded and form a very interesting and valuable volume of nearly three hundred pages. This book is prefaced by a very complete though necessarily brief history of Medford from the day of its
