PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD
PEMDI 111
FIRSTMEXICMWHR
Commonwealth Sent More Than
2,000 Troops; Quota Now Ten
Times That Number
In the event of war with Mexico,
Pennsylvania's quota, under the first
call for 250,000 volunteer troops
would be 21,538— nearly 20,000 more
'than wa« sent to the invasion of the
Southern Republican from the Key
stone Commonwealth In 1846. Volume
10 of the Pennsylvania Archives, sixth
series, contains the names of 2,030 vol
unteers. This is not complete, but It
is approximate.
The State gave a good account of
itself In that struggle, and there are a
few survivors still residents of this
Commonwealth. One of these sur
vivors, Sylvester Meyers, was married
only two years ago.
Captain Francis J. Keffers was pres
ident ot the Mexican War Association,
of Philadelphia, for many years.
At the beginning of the present year
there were 1,142 Mexican War pen
sioners who saw service and 5,125
widows. There has been paid out on
account of the Mexican War to date
$47,232,572.43 in pensions.
The Pennsylvania troops who left
home sixty-eight years ago had no op
portunity to become acquainted with
travel de luxe. They would have re
garded a train of cattle cars as a lux
ury, and as for present up-to-date
khaki uniforms, looking to the com-,
fort of the soldier in warm weather,
they had not been invented. Most of
the troops were ordered to Pittsburgh,
where they wer»embarked on all sorts
of watercraft from stern-wheel steam
boats to Mats, and taken down tho
Ohio and Mississippi rivers to Camp
Jackson, New Orleans. From there I
they were transported to Tamplco by!
sailing vessels, and not a particularly
pleasant feature of the voyage was a j
sale encountered as they reached the j
Mexican coast, a gale which drove the j
| transports to sea, where they rolled In i
i tho Gulf of Mexico for several days.
Officers In the Service
j With the two regiments of Pennsyl
vania troops were 104 officers. Includ
ing Colonel John W. Geary, who waa
j wounded at Chapultapec. but who
j lived to command a brigade at Gettys
i burg in the Civil War. Colonel Geary
!was one of Buchanan's appointees ac
Governor of Kansas during th« bor
der troubles.

ry, A. S. Tourrison, David J. Unger.
General Robert Patterson, of Penn
sylvania, was the senior major general
of volunteers in this war. He was
commended for gallantry and for mili
tary strategy.
He was also a major general at the
outbreak of the Civil War, but was so
strongly censured after first Manassas
(Bull Run) that his usefulness was
destroyed. It was charged that if he
had been more active he coula have
prevented the junction Johnstown's
army with the Confederates at the
critical period of the battle.
Gave Country Two Presidents
The last war with Mexico gave to
the country two Presidents—General
Zachary Taylor and General Franklin
Pierce although it cannot be said of
the latter that he made his reputation
in the field. He was nominated, how
ever, as a matter of expediency against
General Winfleld Scott, whom the
Whigs selected as their standard
bearer In 1852.
Captain Charles P. Meek, of this
city, has an interesting souvenir of the
war with Mexico in the form of a
diary kept by his father, the lata
Ephraim G. H. Meek, who enlisted at
Carlisle barracks —now the Indian
School—and served throughout the
1 war period as a sergeant. It gives the
, movements of Sergeant Meck's com
pany from the day It left until the
day It returned and was mustered out
of the sen-ice.
