EXTRACTS FROM THE ANNUAL REPORT OF THE GALLERY COMMITTEE OF THE MARYLAND

HISTORICAL SOCIETY

The last annual Report of the Gallery Committee enumerated a vast number of gifts and deposits received by the Society during the year.

The most important acquisition by the Society was the collection of Confederate relics owned by the Confederate Soldiers' Home at Pikesville; this fine collection was presented through the efforts of Mr. James R. Wheeler, President of the Confederate Home, and Mr. David Ridgely Howard, who has always taken an active interest in the institution.

All of the articles were given to the Society with the exception of a camp chair that was used by General Robert E. Lee; this did not belong to the Confederate Home but its owner, Mrs. C. E. Quartley, deposited it with the Society, notwithstanding the fact that five thousand dollars was offered for it by a New York collector.

The Confederate relics are too numerous to mention and include several portraits and crayon likenesses of distinguished officers of the Confederate Army and Navy.

Among the relics is a case of Confederate uniforms worn by Maryland officers, a case containing side arms and interesting relics such as flints issued to the Confederate soldiers, etc. A number of fine engravings depicting battles and skirmishes, muster rolls, etc.

At the present time these articles are deposited in the Civil War Room, the fire proof room that was formerly used as the general office.

Largely through the interest and generosity of Mr. David Ridgely Howard, a fund has been collected and turned over to the Maryland Historical Society amounting to about one thousand dollars to be invested and the interest therefrom, to be used in taking care of the Confederate relics received from the Confederate Home. This fund was contributed by several gentlemen who served in the Confederate Army and will be augmented by other contributions.

It may be interesting to mention that Maryland furnished to the Confederate Service three Major Generals, twelve Brigadier Generals, two Admirals, and seventeen general officers.

The Gallery Committee suggested that a broadside should be printed by the Maryland Historical Society and kept for distribution among its members and friends, setting forth the
