See page 186. CURTIS C. COLBURN volunteered from the tow-n of Calais August 29, 1862 into Company C, and counted on the quota of his native town, and was at this date 33, in the very prime of life for a serviceable soldier. His twin brother, Charles enrolled at the same time into the same company. 1 w-as told that Curtis was born first, therefore older, but cannot vouch for this report. They evidently were twins for were much alike in person, manner, and general make up. Both were good soldiers.... Curtis met manfully every requirement cheerfully, discharged every duty and shrank not from exposure, drill, picket duty or battle. The raid of General J. E. B. Stuart on Fairfax Court House December 28, 1862, in the dead of night was so unexpected and sudden that Comrade Curtis was just a little timid when up in the riflt- pits waiting tor the approaching cavalry coming up the pike 4,000 strong, as it was claimed. But when the music of our cannon ana rattle of musketry rang out the welcome invitation to come on, we were ready and when he heard the familiar voice of Colonel Randall as he came riding in was cool, brave, and ready for a fight.
