It was in vain that friends and physicians entreated him to spare himself, and to ask from the government the rehef which would have been granted to the slightest ex- pression of his wishes. He was determined to do his utmost for the nation, at whatever sacrifice. His life, he said, was not his own, and should be freely surrend...ered at his coun- try's call. His preparations for going were nearly completed, and he had parted with his family in New Haven, when the disease which his vigorous constitution had so long resisted overcame him ; and, after great suffering, he died at the Astor House, New York, June 26, 1863. He had expected to die in the malaria of the Carolina Islands, tended by the rough but loving hands of fellow-war- riors on the sea ; or in the roar and fiery storm of Ijattle. Where he should die, or how, was to him a question of little moment.
