company of the original ten had men from both Cayuga and
Wayne,' though the mass of them were from the towns of Ira
and Galen.
Ira came with the captain and Galen with 1st Lieutenant
Dennis Flynn. There may have been half a dozen men from
western Wayne, but Clyde gave the great part of the county's
showing. The village thought a deal of the young lieutenant,
and gave him a sword and equipments when he went away.
The rallying i)f Ira around Captain Squyer was a pleasant sight,
and the popularity of these officers never waned. The second
lieutenancy fell to George P. Knapp, also of Cayuga.

♦Nothing in the preparation of this book has occasioned more search-
ing than this Black Diamond incident. The solution is had in the fol-
loT\'ing despatch to a Baltimore paper of April 26th :
Fortress Monroe, April 25, 1865.
Yesterday morning at half-past twelve, the ship Massachusetts,
carrying convalescents and paroled prisoners, collided with the small
barge propeller, Black Diamond, used as a picket boat, at anchor about
half a mile from Blackistone Island. The bows of the Massachusetts
were badly stove in, andher people, panic-stricken, seized planks, etc.,
and sprang into the water. The Black Diamond sank in less than three
minutes. Capt. J. M. Holmes of the Veteran Reserve was in command
of the men. He thought fifty men lost their lives.
This island is a lighthouse station, east side of the Potomac, several
miles above its mouth. Had the men remained on board the Blassa-
chusetts, none of them would have been harmed; but there is no rule
against panics. The death list included Byron, Gardner and Harrington
from this company.
