Of the foregoing number, fifty-eight are from Cambria.
After carefully reading over the above list, we are led to make an
inquiry, to wit: Where's “Major” TEETER? It was generally understood in
Johnstown that he was to be Second Lieutenant, but it appears Sergeant
MAGUIRE has obtained that commission and we look through the list in vain
for the name of Isaac TEETER. What was wrong with the Major, and where is
he?
