i Elmer

A case reviewer for the State Welfare Department became curious recently after he had interviewed numerous elderly persons with the given name Elmer Els-

So he investigated. a It seems that, according to history, Elmer Elsworth lived in the 19th century and had several claims to fame. To mention a few: He at one time worked in the law office of Abraham Lincoln and was probably the first person killed in the Civil War. : -Born at Mechanicsville, N. Y. April 23, 1837, Elmer early in life showed a great love for uniforms \and great administrative ability. In 1859 he organized the “Zouave Corps,” a troupe of excellently drilled ornately costumed “soldiers,” with whom he toured the country, gaining wide fame. © : After a short interval in which

he worked with Mr. Lincoln and

accompanied the Great emancipator to Washington he organized another highly drilled troupe, which this time was called the “Zouave Firemen.” He toured the country with his men (history is not clear as to whether the troupe actually fought fires or just marched). The outbreak of the Civil War found Mg. Elsworth and his men in Alexandria Va. and it was here that the “Zouave maestro” lost his life. The hotel at which he was staying ran up the Confederate flag at the news that war was declared and Elmer promptly attempted to

tear the nner down. - Just as promptly the hotel keeper shot the

patriot, killing him instantly. That is the story of Elmer Elsworth, as uncovered by the case reviewer.
