Excerpt from Fifth Biographical Record of the Class of Fifty-Eight, Yale University: 1858 1908 The Secretary was officially floating idly upon a sea of contentment, believing that '58 was gorged and would call for no more class records, when he awoke and found it all a dream. In 1865, in the first class record, he included the non-graduates. He then concluded that the duties of a Secretary, especially because the numbers graduating were larger and increasing, could not be properly done if non-graduates were included. He therefore omitted them in the next three records. In July, 1908, he yielded to a second earnest appeal from the Secre tary of the University to secure for him the addresses of the living non graduates and secured them all. When the class in June, 1908, asked the Secretary to issue a record supplementary to that of 1897, he concluded to supplement also the non graduate part of the record of 1865. The result is before you. In brief, the whole non-graduate record is in the 1865 and the 1908 records, and the whole graduate record is in the 1897 and the 1908 records. Thus practically closes a class secretarial career of fifty years, which has probably been unequalled in duration.

While many Civil War reference books exist, there is no single compendium that contains important details about the combatant states (and territories) that Civil War researchers can readily access for their work. People looking for information about the organizations, activities, economies, demographics, and prominent personalities of Civil War States and state governments must assemble data from a variety of sources, with many key sources remaining unavailable online. This crucial reference book, the fourth in the States at War series, provides vital information on the organization, activities, economies, demographics, and prominent personalities of Delaware, Maryland, and New Jersey during the Civil War. Its principal sources include the Official Records, state adjutant-general reports, legislative journals, state and federal legislation, federal and state executive speeches and proclamations, and the general and special orders issued by the military authorities of both governments, North and South. Designed and organized for easy use by professional historians and amateurs, this book can be read in two ways: by individual state, with each chapter offering a stand-alone history of an individual stateÕs war years; or across states, comparing reactions to the same event or solutions to the same problems.
