Civil War Artillery
First Regiment Light Artillery
The appearance of this battery while passing through Ohio, especially at Cincinnati, attracted much attention, and its completeness of outfit on such short notice, as well as the fine appearance of the men, were subjects of enthusiastic praise, while the superior quality of the horses did not pass without favorable comment.
in fact the organization of this battery, taking place almost on the threshold
of the rebellion, was one of the events which so early brought Michigan to the front before the country as a wide awake State, and reliable in the war, and in some instances really setting examples on the start which were elsewhere followed.
