As other regiments were mustered into the service, they played their farewell for them. When the Sixty-ninth went to Indianapolis, just before it was called to the front in Kentucky, the band accompanied it. When Lincoln passed through Indianapolis from Springfield, 111., to Washington to take his seat as presi dent ot the United States for the first j time, Mitchell's band was invited to take part in the ovation. They were hired by Capt. Hartwell's company to lead them to meet Lincoln when he arrived in Indianapolis. They headed the procession which escorted Lincoln to the Bates House where he made an address and greeted his friends. Mr. Newman was very proud to jay that at that time he was accorded the pleasure of shaking Mr. Lincoln's hand. He also told of an incident which happened at supper time. The band was seated at the supper table and Mr. Lincoln walked in. He asked if he might sit with the boys at their table. Theue was only one vacant chair, and that was next to the one on which Mr. Newman sat. Asked Questions. Mr. Lincoln asked many questions of Mr. Newman and was very anxious to know how "everything was in Richmond." The next morning Lincoln left Indianapolis for the capitol. Mr. Newman did not see him again until he was brought back from Washigton after his assassination. Later in the war. Mitchell became leader of the band of the Second Indiana Cavalry. Other members entered the Union forces. After the war, the band was reorganized under several different leaders. It later came to be known as the Richmond City band.
