Remembering Cornelius Stowe at Concord Lecture
Col Hap Wood recalls Cornelius H Stowe a 16 year old regiment member who hid potatoes in his boots for height and endured sickness and wounds from White Plains to Cold Harbor. Stowe was captured by Mosbys cavalry, sent to Belle Isle, endured scarlet fever and amputation, yet returned to the front in 1864. The speaker rejects forgive and forget and urges memory of his valor.
