Daniel Roscoe, living at Olivet station, who will celebrate his 86th birthday anniversary Sunday, June 5, is the last Civil war veteran now living in Walton township. He is also one of the two survivors of the Lewis Clark post, G. A. R. The post surrendered its charter about 10 years ago, due to its dwindling membership.

Lester Taggert, now living in Charlotte, is the other member of the local post. Mr. Roscoe was born among the granite hills of Vermont. The Roscoe family moved to Michigan the year following Daniel's birth and settled in Bellevue township, where, with the exception of the year in his country's service, Mr. Roscoe resided till 1872, when he moved to the vicinitv of Olivet where he has lived since.

He has engaged in various lines of business. Mr. Roscoe retains vivid memories of his enlistment and the incidents of army life. "I ran away three times to enlist, before I got in," said the veteran. "My folks did not want me to go, but I was 17 years old and as tall as I am now, and I felt I must go." Mr.

Roscoe was "mustered in" at Jackson, in August, 1864, where Co. A was formed, and detailed to the "2nd Missouri cavalry. He was never wounded. "I was so slim, I guess they couldn't hit me," the old veteran said, as he hose to his full height of six feet. He was mustered out in September, 1865, after 13 months of active service.
