NUMBER OF MEN SENT BY HOWARD COUNTY.

   Howard county sent into the field more than fifteen hundred men for service.
Hundreds of these perished on the battlefields of the South or by the slower
means of wounds or wasting diseases incident to the privation and exposures of
the march and camp. The remnant who returned had sacrificed much of the vigor of
their manhood for their country, but they had accomplished that for which they
gave their service—a reunited country, built on solider foundations more than
ever before. The right to secede was completely overthrown. The idea of the old
confederation of states was gone, and instead we had an indivisible Union.
