Stamford Soldiers' Memorial 1869
  EDWIN R. DAILY, Co. G, 67th N. Y. Vols., was a native of Michigan, and step
son of John Clark, Esq., of Stamford. He first volunteered with the men who
afterwards constituted Co. D, 6th Conn., but not willing to wait for the
regimental organization, he enlisted as above. After brave service in nineteen
engagements, he fell in his twentieth, in the battle of the Wilderness, May 6,
1864, twenty-three years of age. He was struck by the ball of a sharpshooter, as
he stood about about six yards in advance of his comrades, he cheering them on
to the fight. His honorable record is, "he fell a true Christian patriot."
