Sword Presentation
Dzruv CAMP SALUBRITY HILL,
HARRISBURG, Pa., Aug. 81, 1883.
Editor Tekgraph :—The month closed here
with one of the moat pleasant incidents that I
have witnessed since the commencement of tit:-
war. The brave and often tried Colonel, Chas. ;
&I. Prevost, who commards the camp, was
piken = not by foes—bat by his friends, in surf
The officers of the Invalid Corps, appre
clatingnot only his valor as a soldier, as proven '
by his acts in the field, but his zeal in forward ,
log the interests of the corps in, every sense, ins
the camp, joined In the puahase of a magnifi
cent sabre and belt, which they presented thi
evening to him in a body, accompanied by
reveral distinguished visitors from the army
and your city.
The presentation was made by Surgeon W.
A. Thompson; I. C., 17. S. A., the Post Surgeon 4
The Doctor,-in his address, said that he knew]
well that the hand hi which he was about to
place that sword would only draw it in a just
and righteous cause, and would never sheatho
it without the gleam 'of honor on its steel.-1
That the last history of him who received IQ
was a guarantee for his future—a future to I
identified with a country tamed by the valor o
its loyal sons. And when the evening of life
should come to the Coloilel, and the light of
his eyes begin to dint, if thattrword ehoUld meet
his gaze, the memory of the presentscene would
coins back, giving him light in darkness, as he
thenght of those who, loving and appreciating
him presented that testimonial.
The Colonel was so-completely surprised by
the uneXpected present. nd so touched by the
feeling and eloquent addresses of Dr. Tliompl
eon, that he was for a motetent speechle.s. The
eyes that never shed a tear when the foe was in
front—were moist—the lips which , uttered no
groan when wounds laid him helpless on his
mother earth, faltered, the cheek which never
blanched before a foe, was pale now. In a few
moments suffiCiently recovering his presence of
mind to speak, in a voice which elcquently told
how deeply he felt the compliment, he said
that he could not find words adequate to ex
press hie gratification. He had endeavore tto
faithfully fulfil his duties as commander of the
post and .to aid the officers under his °almond
in their (Juges . of malting the Invalid cove effi. 7
cleat was ho - .file; had pert
oultlibtfihty; that the manner in which
officers, was proven. by the noble gift which
they had placed in his hand, a gift which a sol
dier only could value, for with that his way
only could be cut to that point which every pa
triotdesires to reach—honorable distinction and
loyal fame. He expressed his thanks in a few
touching words, and at once gave orders for re •
'fretihinento. Of course they were not neglected,
antralihour or two of pleasant intercourse was
passed by allzof the officera_conbented and their
guests from , the city. Toe evening will never
be forgotten while life lasts by the Colonel or
those who are proud in their new position as
wounded officers to have atried veteran in
command of the corps. - - -
Yon must excuse, 111.r.,Editor, or rather your
readers must, for,you can't belp it, the hurried
and imperfect report of theriffair, for 'thee been
written before "tape" and within ten minutes,
and I have no time for correction or revision as
it goes ht by the kindly hand of one of our
visitors tonight. Yours ever,
