AN HISTORICAL SKETCH,
Containing’ Many Matters Relating to
the Liberty independent Troop.
The Liberty Independent Troop had a
new flag presented to them on May 8 last,
on the occasion of the annual meeting of
the company, notice of which was made in
the Mousing News at the time. The flag
was the third tr:at has been presented to the
corps by the ladies of Liberty county. Ihe
presentation took place at the parade ground
of the troop near Mclntosh station,
01 which occasion an address was delivered
by ex-Captain W. A. Fleming. The address
is a historical sketch of the corps, and full
of interesting facts connected with the
people of “Old Liberty.” It will be read
with interest by them and the thousands
who, either by birth or by descent, are
entitled to share in the glory and renown of
a county which has been noted from its
foundation for its distinguished men and its
women:
It is with great reluctance that I appear be
fore you to day in this capacity. Mv tirst im
pulse was to decline this honor; for the time,
the occasion, calls for a more eloquent tongue
than mine to express those thoughts which
revel in a glorious past and a bright future In
all ages, and in every clime, poets and states
men have pictured in glowing colors the patriot’s
deeds; ana cold mustvbe the heart and dead the
soul that feels no emotional pride in their coun
try's history. This occasion carries us back to
times when, from a baptism of blood, was
raised the best government the world has ever
known—equal rights, equal laws, and a free
religion—the necessity of mankind. At that
period and soon after the culmination
of our purposes and the success of our arms,
the necessities of the times rendered a more
perfect organization of our militia necessary for
our defense as a people. And from this exigency
arose the character and model of your company.
To fix in your minds your inception and birth I
will refer to the written records of Rev. Dr. L’.C.
Jones, than whom a more godlike, noble patriot
never lived. At the earnest request of your com
mand in 1856 he said: ‘‘Against the principles of
his caliing he consented for the good of man
kind, and the honor of your company, to place
upon record your birth.” As the only living
one of that committee that waited upon
him on that occasion I will say that we
placed in his hands all the books and papers
we could find, though we knew some of them
had been lost. Witn this data furnished him he
stated "he was not able to discover the exact
date of the organization of the troop; that we
may fix the date in 1791 or 1792; but the Chat
ham Artillery is the oldest volunteer corps in
the state, arid the oldest cavalry corps in the
state is the Liberty Troop"
Col. William Maxwell and my father, Capt.
I’eter W. Fleming, had been on the committee
that drafted the design of your medal, twenty
six years before, and they were confluent that
they were not in error. Therefor*, your medal
remains as originally designed, 1786.
Fixing that date, we take from Dr. Jones’
records the names of your captainß in succes
sion down to the present time.
The first commander was Ferdinand O’Neil,
a survivor of the revolution. The second
commander was Simon Fraser, also a Burvivor
of the revolution. The third commander was
John Bohun Girardeau. In 1798, and during Ills
service, the rules and regulations of the com
pany were revised, and the name Liberty Inde
pendent Troop adopted, by which name it has
been since known. The fourth commander was
Samuel Spry Law, afterwards Maj. Law. In
1801, and during his captaincy, the substance of
the first eighteen articles of your present
constitution was adopted, and again revised
In 1827 as they are at the present time.
The fifth commander was Joseph Jones,
1812, and he led the troop to Darien during the
last English war. The sixth commander was
Col. 'William Maxwell in 1815. The seventh
commander was William W. Baker, In 1817. The
eight commander was Capt. William Maxwell,
re-elected in 1827. The ninth commander was
Joseph Law, in 1832. The tenth commander
was I’eter Winn Fleming, in 1833. The eleventh
commander was David Anderson, in 1837, after
wards Maj. Audersou. The twelfth commander
was Edwin H. Bacon, in 1841, afterwards Maj.
lipcon. The thirteenth oommander was Atrial
Winn, in 1812. The fourteenth com
mander was Cyrus 8. Mallard, in 1845.
The fifteenth commander was Capt. Peter Winn
Fleming. Just here a more than irassing notice
is due his memory, though modesty) must for
bid eulogistic praise. Born on the Ist of May,
1807, when scaroely 18 years of age he became a
member of your company,anil from that period
he was identified with all that would advance
your interests. Accepting your proffered com
mand for the second time in 1850, he continued
his active efforts to promote your success until
1859, when, feeling the infirmities of age, he re
signed your captaincy, but not his membership,
ns ho afterward paraded in your ranks. In 1881,
by resolution of your company, this, your an
nual meeting in May, has been declared "a
memorial service in honor of the birth of l’oter
Winn Fleming. The monumental shaft, the
Parian marble, the proud sarcophagus, per
petuate in silent but visible lines the virtues of
the dead; but this testimonial, where heart
meets heart in loving remembrance of the de
parted, Is more akin to that sacred rite of the
Christian, that distinguishes him above all man
kind. We who have within our veins the same
blood coursing, thank you; yes, a thousand
thanks for this distinguishing honor. May his
memory be ever fresh In all that pertains to
your success as a company, and the name
Fleming ever be "present” at your roll call.
The sixteenth commander was Oapt. Abial
Winn, re-elected in 1859; and the seventeenth
Wm. L. Walthour, in 1802. These were
the "war” commanders of your company.
One has passed Into the great
"Beyond," "Peace to his ashes;” the other
still alive, but a cripple for life. Two more gal
lant calvarymen never drew a blade or mounted
a steed. The eighteenth commander was Will
iam A. Fleming, elected at the reorganization
of your company iu 1872 after the war of the
states, uujustly called the ‘‘Rebellion.” The
nineteenth commander was E. P. Miller, elected
iu 1884, now promoted lieutenant colonel of
your regiment; the First Georgia cavalry. The
twentieth commander is Josiah L, Fleming,
elected the present year, 1890.
We have only mentioned your commanders,the
heads of your company; but your ranks were the
bone and sinew of the body, being composed
always of tpe elite of this community, thereby
giving your organization that character it has
always sustained. In this chronological state
ment we come now to the present time, where
we And your record pure, bright, prosperous
and hopeful for the future. You have lived
through two wars, and your honor is untar
nished. In all your vicissitudes, whether in
peace or iu war, your mothers, your wives and
your sisters have been your strong supporters
und fast friends, contributing of their means to
your necessities, and encouraging by their pres
ence at your public meetings, and gracing your
tables with the sweetest viands. Much of
the Buccess accorded you by a gener
ous public in your recent centennial
celebration, is due them. They have lent a
helping hand in fitting you with the bright and
beautiful uniform you now wear. The grounds
you occupy is a gift i rom them far back In the
past; and runner back in that past, in 1829, they
saw your need of a stand of colors, and we have
upon record how handsomely they supplied the
want. In 1842 anotner set adorned the same
staff, und again iu 1860, which set followed you
through the late war and to your homes, tat
tered and torn, but not dishonored.
Apropos to this occasion I will say that your
company, even when merged into a regiment—
the Fifth Georgia Cavalry—during the late war
was not forgotten by them; for they sent by a
bommittee from their own body a set of regi
mental colors, which, after being presented.
Were placed iu the safe keeping of a sergeant
and a co>or guard from your ranks. That ser
geant nobly bore the trust, for it is recorded
that in an advance upon the enemy the regi
ment were dismounted, and being surrounded
by overwhelming numbers, and while shot and
shell were falliug thick and fast, he handed
them to the guard, who had mounted a riderless
horsi? from the enemy’s ranks, and by him
were borne in safety to his retreating regiment.
1 allude to Sergt. Rupell Walthour and to
Private T. Q. Fleming. The one fills a soldier’s
grave; the other alive, and fills a commission in
a neighboring company. Two knights as gal
lant and true as the blades they drew. In 1873,
after your reorganization,they saw your urgent
need, and how instantly, with almost your first
full meeting, they presented you with that set,
the remnants of which you now have.
And now at this present time, 104 years
from your birth, they have come to present
you with another set. Can there be a heart
present, within or without your ranks, un
touched by this noble generosity? Is there one
that feels no emotional pride as he looks upon
those colors, the gift of woman! O, woman 1
lovely woman! "the last best gift to man”—
"fraught with the sweet humanities of life,"
she has no selfish aims, but shores our joys,
divides our cares and points us to the skies.
Then take itWear it well: Keep it untar
nished-guard each sacred fold as you would
your honor. And as these colors remind you of
your high calling, remember you are the sons
of revolutionary sires; that you are the safe
guard of our commonwealth, and that to you
belongs the protection of our homes and our
firesides. You are building up a noble career,
and let this occasion animate you to more noble
endeavors. Y’our recent successes in the "tilting
field," when other corps have contended, have
given unfeigned pleasure to these, your patrons.
Let them not make you too confident. Keep
the amenities of life, and remember always that
the knight who falls with his face to the foe Is
nobler iar than the victor within the spoils of
the camp. Preserve the unanimity of your
corps, for "iu union there 1b strength."
Let there always bog, übtiecXul
acquiescence in the will of the
majority thereby securing your efficiency and
tnat brotherly regard for each other which are
vhe best evidences of a continued prosperity. 1
bid you a kind, affectionate adieu. I have com
plied my three score. Most of that time was
spent in your company as a private, sergeant,
and as your commander. These were the
proudest moments of my life. In memory I
shall always refer with pleasure and satisfac
tion to those dark days of war, when shoulder
to shoulder we stood within the trench, and
though defeated by overwhelming numbers,
we are still true to our colors and true to the
memories of our fathers, the founders of this
grand old troop.

Notes and Gossip.
Fred Dunlap is still out in the cold.
Ward has struck out but once in twenty
five games.
Up to Friday the Cincinnatis had won
thirteen successive games.
Catcher George T. Stallings was released
Thursday by the Brooklyn National League
club.
Dave Orr has failed to make a hit in but
one game in the last twenty, and but two in
the last thirty.
The unusual number of thirteen balls
were used in the second Bostou-Fniladel
phia last Saturday.
Martin Sullivan, of the Boston (N. L.)
club, has played in twenty-five consecutive
games without an error.
Clarkson seems to be in a trance while in
the box nowadays, and bis name is no longer
synonymous with victory.
Joe Neal, formerly of the Savannah,
Louisville and Columbus clubs, is pitching
fine ball this season for Quincy.
Ip the Players’ League New York leads
in batting and fielding and Boston in base
running. Connor leads in hitting.
It is stated on good authority that Pitcher
Elton Chamberlain of the St. Louis Browns
has been sold to tbe Columbus club.
The Brotherhood players are certainly
keeping remarkably straight this season.
They kaow the eyes of their countrymen
are on them.
In the American Association the Athletic
club leads in batting and base running, and
Louisville in fielding. Wolf leads the in
dividual batting.
In the league Hamilton, Collins, Long,
Tiernan, Holliday, Wilmot, Sunday and
McKean now lead in base running in thoir
respective teams.
In the National League Philadelphia leads
the batting, Cincinnati the base running
and Brooklyn the fielding. Reilly or Rowe
lead in individual hitting.
Secretary Hart says that the gentlemen
back of John Ward’s team would lose
$50,000, if necessary, and then go right
along without the least worry.
Should New York lose the Players’ League
championship it will be laid to Ewing’s sore
back. While Buck was nursing it his team
was dropping games. Pretty expensive sort
of cart horse, eh?
The Spiders have been dubbed the presi
dential club. If names suggest anything
they are certainly strong in that respect.
They have a Lincoln and a Garfield and
they hail from Cleveland.
Pete Browning has suprised the country
by his work ror Cleveland. Pete is a
stayer, and one of the best workers for a
team’s success in tho country. He has beeu
laid up for a few days with fever.
Mascots are of no use this season and not
a club has one in stock.— Fitt-sbury Chroni
cle. You’re mistaken. Ward has one and
Rochester another. By the way. what’s
the matter with Gen. Dixwell as a mascot
for Boston?
The Boston Globe says: "Cant. Mike
Kelly’s many friends, both in New York
and this city, are working up a big surprise
for him. The present will cost close to
SIO,OOO, nearly SB,OOO of which has beeu
raised already, mostly by friends of the
Players’ League. The earth is ‘KeIV if he
keeps up his present fine playing until Oc
tober.”
Yamacraw beat the Old Fort yesterday
in a eamo of base ball. The McGintys
crossed bats with the Brunettes and went
to the bottom of the sea. Brunettes 17,
McGintys 13. The feature of the gams was
the capture of a long running fly by Garry,
first baseman of the Brunettes. The battery
work was very good for the Brunettes, and
the McGintys wero compelled to change
several time. The base-running of Scott of
the Brunettes was also fine.
Cur War Correspondent.
From the Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle.
Z. D. Respess, “war correspondent” of
the Savannah News, has been writing
some newsy, interesting letters to his paper
from Camp Richmond. He has made quite
a number of friends in Augusta who will
be glad to see him back again. Ho leaves
for home to-day on the military train.
NEGROES NEEDLESSLY ALARMED.
They Fear the Action of the Mississippi
Constitutional Convention.
Chicago, June 21.—A dispatch from
Jackson, Miss., says: "A conference of
colored men of this state yesterday promul
gated an address to their race, in which
they declare that the constitutional conven
tion to assemble here Aug. 12 Is designed by
the democratic party to abridge, if not
practically destroy, their liberties. They
declare 'that the negro race should
lie represented in the convention, and
urge that a negro organization be also at
once formed In every county where they
are in a majority or have a chance of elec
tion, with a view to the election of negro
delegates. Where the negroes stand no
chance of election, they are urged to
vote for white men who they
think will extend justice to their race.
They declare that they are not responsible
for the race issue, but charge it to the
white-line democracy, and announce their
purpose to elect men of their color, or show
tbe world that they are denied a free ballot
aod afflirsauni.”
THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, JUNE 23. 1890.
GEORGIA’S CAVALRYMEN.
CoL Gordon’s Men Highly Fraised at
the Encampment.
From the Augusta ( Ga .) Chronicle.
Col. W. \\ T . Gordon has been chief offi
cial of the cavalry, and his rapip was so far
detached from the infantry camp that he
almost had an independent encampment of
his own.
Capt. Field said CoL Gordon’s regiment
was the best mounted, best disciplined and
best equipped volunteer cavalry regiment
he ever saw. “They have little odds to ask
of regulars,” he said, and when the reporter
repeated his language to Col. Gordon, the
latter said, “yes, and when I get my regi
ment filled with the requisite number of
companies and have them for a few weeks
practical daily drill in camp, I would not
be afraid to show them against auy regi
ment of regulars.”
Asked further about the work of the en
campment CoL Gordon said he thought the
special benefit of the camp life was the im
pulse and eutbusiasm which the association
of the companies gives to the regimental
organization. You have a number of com
panies in different towns in the state. The
mere fact that they have been enrolled in
the First battalion or the Fifth regiment
does not give them any knowledge of regi
mental organization or attachments, but
bring them all together in camp and have
the regiment officers over the various cap
tains, aud they learn some idea of discipline
and organization.
The State National Guard.
From (Ae Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle.
The conduct of the Georgia troops this
week deserves a place in history. The en
campment has been an immense success.
Savannah has borne off the honors in the
numbers and thoroughness of drill. Sav -
anuah has formed ait admirable nucleus for
a Georgia movement of this kind, and at a
timo when it looked like the spirit of volun
teer soldiery in Georgia was dead! the Sav
annah military elected a solid delegation
from Chatham to the legislature, headed by
Maj. Bassinger, and since that year this
element has, by persistent agitation
and education, advauced this spirit
in Georgia. Their ruagntfloent appear
ance at Gov. Stephens’ funeral aud at the At
lanta and Augusta expositions served to
advance the soldier cause in different parts
of the state, and the active participation of
men of prominence and wealth, like Morcor,
Gordon, Garrard, Flannery, Failiga it and
Meldrim, has been an inspiration to Georgia
volunteers. Something like the gallant
spirit of Francis S. Bartow has “illustrated
Georgia” in the military way, and Savan
nah boys have blazed the way to a Letter
day for our state national guard.
A Savannah Man’s Experience.
From the Leary (Ga.) Courier.
Tom Battle was in town Sunday. Tom
recently spent a night at the home of an
Alabama farmer, whose source of Illumina
tion was circumscribed to lightning bugs
in beer bottles. When Tom got ready to
retire he wa shown to bis room and given
a bottle in which were a pair of these bugs,
and while he disrobed with one band shook
the bottle with the other, which kept the
bugs stirred up and they gave him plenty
of light to go to bed by.
