Interesting Details of the Combat in Which Oa.pt. arabam Distinguished Himself and Won His The following letter is self-explana tory: liSCORO AMD FSH8IOH OTTICI, WAS JJKFABTiatBT, Washihotoh Cm, Feb. 15, 1897. General II. Seymour Hall, Lawrence, Kan Bib I have the honor to inform you.

that, by direction of the president and in accordance with the act of congress approved March 8, 1863, providing for the presentation of medals of honor to such officers, noncommissioned officers nd privates as have most distinguished themseives in action, the assistant secretary of war has awarded a medal of honor to Mr. Thomas H. Graham, late second lieutenant. Fifteenth Indiana In fantry Volunteers, for most distinguished gallantry in action at Missionary fudge. Tennessee, November 80, 1863.

The medal has been forwarded to Lieutenant Graham today, by registered mail, at his address, 683 Tennessee street, Lawrence, Kansas. Very respectfully. F. C. A1N8WOBTH.

Col. TJ, 8. Army, Chief Record nd Pen sion Office, The report of the secretary of war upon which this award of the medal of honor is made states that Second Lieu tenant Thomas N. Graham, late Fif teenth Indiana volunteer infantry, for highly meritorious, conspicuous, and distinguished sallentry in battle at the glorious and successful assault of Mis Bionary Ridge, November 25, 1863, is justly entitled to the award of that highest honor, the congress medal of honor. Major General U.

S. Grant, command er in chief. Major General G. H. Ihomas commanding the army of the Cumber land, and Major General Gordon Grang er, commanding the fourth corps, were all eye witnesses of the magnificent sault that carried the enemy a appar ently impregnable position on the base of the mountain with orders, then with out orders, the men rushed on to the middle rifle pits, swept away their gal lant defenders, almost flew up the pre.

cipitouB slope, 500 feet high to the top, in spite of fifty cannon and swarms of infantry, and planted their colors on the summit, on the spot where Bragg's headquarters had so lately stood. All of these commanders vividly de scribe the scene in their official reports in the volume of Official Records to which reference will be made below. That whirlwind of battle, Major Gen era! P. A. Sheridan, commanded and directed in person the resistless assault of General Granger's second division and in Wagner's brigade of this division fought the gallant Graham.

Of the troops under him General Sheridan says "I would make mention of the most terrible cross fire of artillery and musketry to which my troops were subjected for distance of at least one and one-third miles, while in and emerging from the timber, and during the time occupied in crossing the open plain to the first line of rifle pits. In justice to my gallant officers and men, I must say that their conduct was more than heroic. It was the prompting of a brave heart in a just cause, and an inspiration caused by the sight of the old flag which had been borne by them through many battles The gallant color bearers, officers and planted their flags on Mission' ary Ridge are the true heroes of the bat tie." The of these heroes was Lieuten HAROIJ MoCRORY, SURGEON DENTIST 813 Mass. St. Over Faxon's Shoe Store.

Major Frank White, Fifteenth Indiana infantry, Chattanooga, Tennessee, Nov ember 27, 1863, from which quoted what relates to the heroin officer. Gra "The officers and men of the regi ment behaved with such gallantry that it would be hard to discriminate.but the conduct of Color Sergeant George Banks, who carried his colors until shot twice, and of Second Lieutenant TJf, Graham, Company who then carried the colors forward and planted them on the ene my's breastworks, under terrible fire, deserves especial commendation. I wouia bmso aaa mat my regiment was the first regiment of the brigade to plant their colors on the enemy's works." In the same volume on page 216 is the of ficial leport of Captain Benjamin F. Heglet, commanding Fifteenth Indiana after Major White was wounded, and from it No. 42, on said page 216, is also quoted: "The ascent was verv steep and our progress so obstinately contested that it was necessarily slow, but in forty nve minutes arier leaving the base our ridge our colors were planted on the crest by Second Lieutenant Thomas first of the brigade) and the enemy fleeinK in disorder." In an address by the Chaplain John M.

Whitehead before the surviyors, on September 20, 1868, at Frankfort, Indi ana. Captain Whitehead said: "The battle of Missftnary Ridge will ever be regarded as one of the grandest scenes of history for numbers; for perfect am phitheater scenes, for grandeur in vie tory. The part you took in that grand. heroic fight was directly in front of General Bragg's headquarters as your oojecuve point, now well you performed your duty aiong that bloody line was seen in the fact that the flag of the ioin regiment, inaiana volunteers was planted first on Missionary Ridge on the fortifications at Bragg's headquarters. It was not planted there without the costly sacrifice of blood and life of sixty per cent of the regiment.

"Our old flag, God bless its sacred mem ory suu; it was shot down with its brave bearers, six times in succession. but it rose each time in a new hand and landed triumphant at last. "The sixth time it fell Lieutenant Thomas N. Graham, of company sprang to the breach, siezed it, leaped across the fortifications and planted its tattered folds at Bragg's headquarters, It was the first flag to float along Mis sionary Ridge, when in a few moments afterwards over 100 flags waved proud Iy along the entire ridge." Capt. Graham, to whom this medal of honor haB been awarded, is well known in Lawrence, having been in the employ of the Lawrence Gas company for a num ber of years past.

He is a very quiet and unassuming man, and his many friends in the oity will rejoice at the honor that has come to him. Capt. Graham enlisted at Westville, Ind in Co. G. Fifteenth Indiana In fantry on April 21.

1861; during his ser vice he participated in the following battles: Rich Mountain, Elk Water. Greenbrier, Shiloh, Corinth, PerryviUe, Stone River and Minion Ridge. At Stone River the regiment lost oyer one half of the number engaged, and at Mission Ridge the loss was over two thirds of the command. It was some colder this morning, but it bad not been cold enough to freeze that flowing mud on Massachusetts street which was worse than ever today.

The following special despatch from Boston will be read with interest by Lawrei.ce people: At an adjourned meeting of the New EpglandEmigrant Aid society, held Mon day, it was voted to transfer all property belonging to the company to the Univer sity of Kansas, at Lawrence. In the es tablishment of this institution the mem" ben took an active interest Vice Presi dent Edward Everett Hale, chairman of the meeting, stated that the society had made application to the leg1 islature to prolong for flye years the company's charter, which was issued in 1850, and soon expires. The request, he said, will probably be, granted. The company which is thus ending, tempor arily at least, a long and notable period of existence played an important part in the history of the country between 1854 and 1867, In May 1854 it had expended $116,000 in various enterprises looking to the establishment of northern settlers in Kansas. The first agent of the society became goyernor of Kansas, the second became senator.

There 1,000 shares in the company, and about 100 members. The property the migrant Aid so ciety has is a claim for the Free State hotel erected in Lawrence, whioh was owned by the society, and was burned in 1856. This hotel as estimated to be worth 110,000 and the claim is turned over to Kansas univer sity to collect from the state or general government Prof, Carruth is the orginator of the idea to have the property turned oyer to Kansas university, and so far as known the claim is all the assets the society has ROLLER SKATING For This Week.
