Gaines Mills (First Cold Harbor) June 27, 1862 http://americancivilwar.com/statepic/va/va017.html

This was the third of the Seven Days' Battles. On June 27, 1862, General Robert E. Lee renewed his attacks against Porter's V Corps, which had established a strong defensive line behind Boatswain's Swamp north of the Chickahominy River. Porter's reinforced V Corps held fast for the afternoon against disjointed Confederate attacks, inflicting heavy casualties. At dusk, the Confederates finally mounted a coordinated assault that broke Porter's line and drove his soldiers back toward the river. The Federals retreated across the river during the night. Defeat at Gaines' Mill convinced McClellan to abandon his advance on Richmond and begin the retreat to James River. Gaines' Mill saved Richmond for the Confederacy in 1862.

Northern Tribune 1904 - David McFalls was born at Morristown in January 1822, enlisted as surgeon in the 142^nd infantry at Rossie August 25, 1862. He was an exceptionally efficient surgeon as shown by the fact of his appointment to the very responsible position of medical purveyor of the Andersonville prisoners of war at Wilmington, N.C. He was discharged at the close of the war in June 1865. A further account of Dr. McFalls appeared in the list of supervisors of Rossie.

Benjamin Butler from Harper's Weekly

From Wikipedia:

Benjamin Franklin Butler (November 5, 1818 – January 11, 1893) was an American lawyer and politician who represented Massachusetts in the United States House of Representatives and later served as its governor. During the American Civil War, his administration of occupied New Orleans, his policies regarding slaves as "contrabands", his ineffectual leadership in the Bermuda Hundred Campaign, and the fiasco of Fort Fisher rank him as one of the most controversial "political generals" of the war. He was widely reviled for years after the war by Southern whites, who gave him the nickname "Beast Butler".

From Infoplease:

Butler, Benjamin Franklin, 1818–93, American politician and Union general in the Civil War, b. Deerfield, N.H. He moved to Lowell, Mass., as a youth and later practiced law there and in Boston. He was elected to the state legislature in 1852 and 1858 and ran unsuccessfully for governor in 1859 and 1860. Butler was a Democrat but a strong Unionist. At the beginning of the Civil War his contingent of Massachusetts militia was one of the first to reach Washington. He restored order (May, 1861) in secessionist Baltimore and was given command at Fort Monroe. He commanded the troops that accompanied Admiral Farragut in taking New Orleans and was made military governor of the city. There his highhanded rule (May–Dec., 1862) infuriated the people of New Orleans and the South and earned him the name “Beast.” The government, severely criticized both at home and abroad for his actions, finally removed him. In May, 1864, as commander of the Army of the James, Butler was defeated by Beauregard at Drewry's Bluff and was bottled up at Bermuda Hundred until Grant crossed the James in June. After he failed to take Fort Fisher in Dec., 1864, he was removed from active command. From 1867 to 1875 Butler, by then a rabid radical Republican, was in Congress. He was one of the House managers who conducted the impeachment proceedings against President Andrew Johnson, and he ardently advocated the party's Reconstruction policy. He was said to have great influence with President Grant. Butler was (1877–79) an independent Greenbacker in Congress. After several unsuccessful attempts to secure the governorship of Massachusetts, he was elected by the Greenbackers and Democrats in 1882. In 1884 he received the nominations of the Anti-Monopoly and Greenback parties for President. Regarded by many as an unprincipled demagogue of great ability, Butler aroused intense antagonisms and was nearly always in controversy.

I have a little more info about the Beach family and the letters. Alvah was the son of Willard and Eliza Collins Beach and resided in Pierrepont, NY before the war. After being wounded at Salem's Church May 3, 1863, (Chancellorsville) and mustering out of the 16th, May 22, 1863 he re-enlisted in the 14th Heavy Artillery co. G. He was killed in battle June 17th 1864 near Petersburg, VA. He was buried Poplar Grove National Cemetery in Plot 201 He also has a memorial stone at Beech Plains Cemetery, town of Pierrepont, NY

His brother, Enos, was in the 60th NY Infantry and also has letters at SLU Archives ( Manuscripts and special Collections) They are "bound" in a book. I have looked at them and they are fantastic. Enos described life at Camp Wheeler at Ogdensburg where the 60th trained. Enos only lasted in the 60th until Aug 31, 1863 when he was discharged for disability from Hospital in Alexandria Va. From what I remember of the letters, he was sick often.

He died Sep 1875 in North Platt, Nebraska. Not sure his cause of death but his age of 32 when he died makes me wonder if his death wasn't related to his sickness in the army. Many soldiers died soon after the war. Enos also has a stone at Beech Plains cemetery. The two brother's had a sister named Alvira who had married David Robinson who was in the 60th and was killed at Antietam. David and Almira have stones at Beech Plains too.
