The cause of this Union is our cause, and to its support, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we pledge our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honors. The resolutions were discussed by Mr. Mason, J. Wiley Edmunds, Andrew H. Ward, Jr., William McIntosh and others, and unanimously adopted. It was also voted that T. M. Bryan, Jr., E. W. Dennison, and J. C. Potter, Jr., be a committee, in connection with the selectmen, to furnish uniforms, arms, and underclothes for the volunteers. A paper was also read, signed by fourteen of the most esteemed and influential ladies of the town, tendering their services to make the under-clothing for the soldiers, which was properly considered.

fe of William who united with the Brighams in the sale of Cambridge land. This Hannah had been wife of Gershom Eames, and is lands supposed by her descendant Andrew H. Ward (Hist.
