Lot Description

Printed broadside, 13.75 x 20.75 in. 300,000 Volunteers Called For. / Now is the time to Enlist, for the Preservation of your Country's Honor / Head Quarters at Lima, NY/ at Capt. Jacob S. Galintines Tent. Printed by S.F. Jory, with address listed as Office Over Dr. E. Salmon's Drug Store, Lima, NY.

This was likely a response to Lincoln's October 17, 1863 call for 300,000 additional men (Proclamation 107). He had also called for 300,000 in July 1862, but this would have been before Jacob Galentine was in Federal service.

Jacob Stull Galentine (1834-1871) enlisted at Portage, NY in September 1862, in the 136th NY Infantry. By January, he was moved to the Quartermaster's Department as 1st lieutenant, then made commissary sergeant in April. HDS does not list him as achieving the rank of captain, but he could have served in the state militia at that rank.

Provenance: Property of N. Flayderman & Co.

Condition

Water-stained, and reductions on edges, glue stains where mounted on reverse. Despite condition issues, the broadside presents well.
