The old 127th did its full duty; and when the regimentwas finally mustered out, many of the boys, keeping alivethe patriotic spirit that animated them in its ranks, driftedinto other commands, and were in the war at the finish. No grander sight was ever witnessed than the superbcharge of our regiment at the battle of Fredericksburg;and the same unbroken line at Chancellorsville; and whilemany of our comrades gave up their lives, and others car-ried the battle-marks upon their persons, we have theproud consolation of boasting that the 127th Regimentwas among the very last, in both these great engagements,to leave the field. The record of the regiment has been made, and theproud facts of the gallantry displayed, and the honors. HON. THOMAS G. SAMPLE,Sf:ilc SuiMTiiitiiiilcHt nf Il-inl hij;.
