=Sanders, Col. C. C.=, Gainesville, Ga.; president of the State
Banking Co. of Gainesville; alternate commissioner to World’s Fair,
Chicago, Ill., 1893; vice-president for Georgia, American Bankers’
Association. Colonel Sanders is of Irish and English ancestry. On
the maternal side he is descended from Thomas and Theodosia M.
Smyth, who emigrated from Ireland in 1793, landing in Charleston, S.
C. They settled in Jones County, Ga. Thomas died Nov. 28, 1799. On
the paternal side Colonel Sanders is a descendant of Rev. Moses
Sanders, who emigrated from England, with two brothers, John and
David, and arrived in Petersburg, Va., 1765. They embraced the
Patriotic cause in the Revolution and were active in operations
against the British. Colonel Sanders, the subject of this sketch,
graduated from the Georgia Military Institute, in June, 1861;
entered the Confederate service; was made lieutenant-colonel of the
Twenty-fourth Regiment of Infantry, Georgia Volunteers, August,
1861; served under General Lee in the Peninsular campaign, in the
seven days’ battles around Richmond, Va., and was among the bravest
of the brave; commanded his regiment at Malvern Hill and at Marye’s
Heights, Fredericksburg, where the Twenty-fourth was a part of the
Confederate forces that received the valorous charges of Meagher’s
Irish Brigade. He also commanded the regiment at the battles of
Chancellorsville and Antietam, at which latter conflict he was
placed in command of Wofford’s Brigade. While in this position he
met a bayonet charge from the Federals by a counter bayonet charge,
and in the desperate fighting that ensued, fifty-eight per cent. of
Sanders’ heroic force was swept away. Colonel Sanders also led the
Twenty-fourth at Cedar Creek, Chickamauga, Knoxville, the
Wilderness, Spottsylvania Court House, and Sailor’s Creek. On April
6, 1865, Ewell’s Corps, to which Colonel Sanders’ regiment was then
attached, was captured, and Colonel Sanders was sent as a prisoner
of war to Washington, D. C. Writing of Meagher’s Irish Brigade,
Colonel Sanders says: “I was in command of the Twenty-fourth Georgia
Regiment, with other troops, at the foot of Marye’s Heights,
receiving the five heroic and gallant charges of the Irish Brigade,
whose prodigies of valor have filled the country with admiration. I
saw the devoted Irish charge up to our breastworks, to be mowed down
by a line of Confederate fire that no soldiers could withstand. I
saw the Irish battalions cut down like grain before the reaper, yet
the survivors would magnificently close up their ranks only to have
huge gaps again cut through them. When forced back they rallied and
came bravely on again, only to be riddled with bullets and torn by
artillery. Their fifth charge was made with greatly decimated ranks
that slowly recoiled like the waves of a tempestuous sea. When
twilight descended upon the scene, a spectacle was presented
unequaled in warfare. At least three fourths of my command was
composed of men of Irish descent and knew that the gallant dead in
our front were our kindred of the land beyond the sea. When, one by
one, the stars came out that night, many tears were shed by Southern
Confederate eyes for the heroic Federal Irish dead.” During the war
Colonel Sanders was offered the rank of brigadier-general but
declined the same.

NECROLOGY.

(Continued from page 151).

BYRNE, MAJ. JOHN, New York City. He was a native of Maryland and was
born in 1845. Died in Mamaroneck, N. Y., Oct. 31, 1905. He was
living in West Virginia with his father, a railroad contractor, when
the war broke out. Although too young to enlist, he joined the Union
army as a scout and served all through the contest. He settled in
Cincinnati at the close of hostilities, and became a civil engineer.
For over twenty years Major Byrne was identical with the railroad
operations of the late C. P. Huntington. He was president of the
Pittsburg, Shawmut and Northern Railroad Company, and of the Shawmut
Mining Company. He was also a director of the Detroit City Gas
Company and a trustee of the Emigrant Industrial Savings Bank of New
York and was also connected with other corporations (see page 142).
An ardent lover of the land of his fathers, Major Byrne took a very
active part in the Land League movement. He was elected
vice-president of the League at the great National Convention held
at Philadelphia, and served out his term. With the late Eugene
Kelly, he was one of the organizers of the Irish Parliamentary Fund
in this city, and made a personal contribution to it of $15,000. He
also paid the salary of an Irish member of parliament for several
years himself.

GENERAL INFORMATION REGARDING THE AMERICAN-IRISH HISTORICAL SOCIETY.

The Society was organized on January 20, 1897, in Boston, Mass., and now has members in twenty-seven states, the District of Columbia, two territories and five foreign countries.

The first president-general was the late Rear-Admiral R. W. Meade, U. S. N. (retired).

Briefly stated, the object of the organization is to make better known the Irish chapter in American history.

There are two classes of members in the organization,—Life and Annual. The life membership fee is $50, (paid once). The fee for annual members is $5, paid yearly. In the case of new annual members, the initiation fee, $5, also pays the membership dues for the first year.

The board of government comprises a president-general, a vice-president-general, a secretary-general, a treasurer-general, a librarian and archivist, and an executive council. There are also state vice-presidents.

The Society has already issued several bound volumes and a number of other publications. These have been distributed to the members and to public libraries; also to historical organizations and to universities. Each member of the Society is entitled, free of charge, to a copy of every publication issued from the time of his admittance. These publications are of great interest and value, and are more than an equivalent for the membership fee.

The Society draws no lines of creed or politics. Being an American organization in spirit and principle, it welcomes to its ranks Americans of whatever race descent, and of whatever creed, who take an interest in the objects for which the Society is organized. Membership application blanks will be furnished on request.

The membership includes many people of prominence, and has been addressed by many distinguished men. It occupies a position in the front rank of American historical organizations.
