Primary Sources for the 13th New York state Militia


The Baltimore Sun, June 15, 1861

Military Movements.—For a week past nearly there has been a cessation of the military tide of regiments through this city, and martial matters have grown dull, Yesterday morning the Sixth Regiment of Massachusetts, and the Thirteenth Regiment of New York, ordered to Camp Carroll, near Mount Clare, on Thursday, were ordered back to their respective points, the 6th to the Relay House,and the 13th to the Annapolis Junction. The two regiments were ordered to the vicinity of Baltimore on Thursday on the strength of a report that a riot was progressing in the city. The transfer back took place at 9 a.m. yesterday morning, two straggling members of the 13th regiment got into a quarrel at the Camden depot, and arranged the preliminaries to fight a duel with pistols, which were produced, but the belligerents were induced to forego their fighting propensities at least until they reach Virginia.
