July, 1864, will explain itself:
Cbicaoo, Sept. 18, 1884.
Rt. Rev. Jlithop Jleckvriih, Atlanta, 1
Georgia i i
Dkab Kir—Will you kindly par-1
don the undersigned for bespeak- j
Ing your good offices in behalf of I
one of Ihe Illinois regiments in the
“late unpleasantness,”provided, of i
course, you can aid us without too
great a tax upon your valuable
time. Allow me briefly to state
the circumstances: On July 22d,
1864, the Fifty-fifth Regiment of
Illinois Volunteer Infantry lost
their colors (regimental and nation
al),. before Atlanta, Oa., in the
charge made by Ucneral Hood.
We have never been able to ascer
tain what regiment captured the .
colon, nor where the colors now j
are, if, Indeed, they aro still in ex-j
istencc. We have liecn inlonned
that they are in Atlanta, but have
no means of knowing. The Fifty'-'
fifth Regiment propose to hold a
reunion on October SOth and 31st,
next, (the first since the war), at
Canton, III., and wc thought if the
colors could lie restored to us on
that occasion, it would be a very
happy xflair. Now it Iias occurred |
to us that you woidd lie in a posi
tion to learn something in regard 1
lo the whcreahuuls of the lost col
ors. If not in Atlanta, you may
be able to give ns some idea where !
tbo.v are likely to lie kept. I have j
no doubt but that with the restored j
happy relations between the North
and South there would he no diffi
culty in getting the colors back,
provided they can be found. We |
would be grateful for any sorvioc
you can render us in lliisdircction, j
and esteeui it ns a great favor, if!
consistent with your oilier dutic-s,:
to make some inquiries in our be
half among (hose who would be
likely to know about it. The un
dersigned was Adjutant of tuc reg
iment at the time of the capture of
the colors.
