APPENDIX G
Farewell Address

"Headquarters First Division, Seventh Army Corps,
"Camp Columbia, Havana, Cuba, March 29, 1899.

"This Division will soon cease to exist by the muster out of the
volunteer regiments composing it. I assumed command of it at Miami,
Florida, July 6, 1898, and have commanded it (when not exercising
a higher command including it) from that time at Miami, Florida,
to August 6th; at Camp Cuba Libre, Jacksonville, Florida, to October
20th; at Camp Onward, Savannah, Georgia, to December 27th; at Camp
Columbia, near Havana, Cuba, to the present.

"Through changes in regiments and other organizations, about twenty
thousand officers and soldiers have served in the Division.

"Although not engaged in battle, the dangers from disease in tropical
camps have been great, and many have died or have become broken in
health. The Division has performed important service in maintaining
the high standard of the volunteer soldier in time of war, and in
doing guard duty in Cuba, preparatory to establishing a new
civilization and a free government for a long-oppressed people.
The varied trials and hardships of a soldier's life have been
bravely and manfully met by the officers and soldiers of the
Division. I have been proud to command it; and have only the
warmest friendship for all who composed it. I will always take a
deep interest in them. I am especially thankful to the officers
who have from time to time served on my staff, for their loyalty
to me, and their efficiency and zeal in performance of duty.

"I have now served in the Volunteer Army of the United States of
America, in the Civil War and the war with Spain, five years, and
on May 12, 1899, I will sheath my sword (in all probability) forever,
conscious that I have tried to do my duty to my country.
