From: "The Weekly Journal" of Sioux City of July
1881, an account of the drowning of Allie J. Ormsbee;
"He was bathing at 4 PM in the Floyd river at Horse Shoe
Bend, with sons of Mr. Bishop and Mr. Canfield. He said he was
going to swim the river and started out but went into a drop-off.
He was the only son of M.A. Ormsbee, a machinist in the St. Paul
shops. He lacked but a few days of being 8 yrs. old. He was bright
and bold beyond his years."
Mansel Ormsbee was a carpenter and machinist with the Sioux
City and St. Paul R.R. shops. In the Sioux City Directory (1887-1888)
a 1/2 page ad.
"M.A. Ormsbee Carpenter and Contractor, Builder and Jobber"
At the foot of his grave stone is a marker; "Co. A. 5th
Vt. Inf."
The Ormsbee lot in Floyd Cemetery, at Sioux City is No. 1 Blk.

R.
A newspaper clipping, from Mrs. Palmer, from the "Sioux

"The party who stole a keg of nails from M.A. Ormsbee's new
house on Nebraska St. Monday night, will save prosecution by returning
same."

History of the 13th Regiment Vermont Volunteers
Enlisted August 29, 1862, from the town of East Montpelier,
and joined Company C at the age of 22, and was the older of two
brothers in the same company. He seemly was a good soldier and
on hand at all times for duty for was promoted to Corporal January
12, 1863. He served his term of enlistment and was mustered out
July 21, 1863. He was a brave, dashing, courageous soldier and
did himself proud in battle, flinching not a bit when facing General
Pickett's charging thousands in the valley of Plum Run, Gettysburg,
July 3rd, 1863. Any soldier, even if the hero of a hundred battles
might have hesitated in the crisis of this charge when crossing
bayonets. The scenes were awful and carnage great. But the Second
Vermont Brigade led by General Stannard was too much for General
Pickett, destroyed his command, killing hundreds and capturing
hundreds more.

History of the 13th Regiment Vermont Volunteers
Volunteered from the town of East Montpelier and counted on the quota for that town August 29, 1862, and united with Company C. His age was 18. Though 4 years younger than his brother, Hosea, of the same company, was as brave and alert and ready for duty night or day as he and no doubt rendered acceptable service. He stood the test and returned home and was mustered out with his regiment July 21, 1863. The war was still raging and this young hero was eager to try again so volunteered in February 1864, and in Company E, of the 17th Regiment, under his First Lieutenant George S. Robinson, now captain of Company E, was promoted to corporal for bravery in battle and in this regiment experienced many hardly contested battles, namely, Wilderness, Spotsylvania Court House, North Anna, Totopotamoy, Bethesda Church, Cold Harbor, Petersburg and Petersburg Mine, Weldon Railroad. Poplar Springs and Hutchins Run and against Petersburg April 2nd, just beforeGeneral Lee's surrender. It was fight from the Wilderness May 5th, 1864, to Petersburg, April 2, 1865, all the time. This regiment, the 17th, likely saw more desperate fighting from May, 1864, to April 2nd 1865, than any other Vermont regiment in the same space of time. Comrade Ormsbee returned to his home with a record as good as any from Vermont. He died November 3rd, 1883 and, was buried in the Cutler cemetery, East Montpelier, Vt..
