On the 8th of May Captain Daniel B. Haskell, First Veteran Infantry, California Volunteers, was drowned in the Rio Grande river, by the sinking of a ferry boat, near Fort Craig, New Mexico. The officers of the army present at Fort Craig being desirous of paying some tribute of respect to the memory of the deceased, met at 11 o'clock a. m. on the 10th of May, pursuant to call from the Colonel commanding, at the Adjutant's office at Fort Craig.

The following resolutions were presented and unanimously adopted:

WHEREAS, Almighty God, in His inscrutable wisdom, has taken from our midst the late Captain Daniel B. Haskell, our brother officer, by drowning in the Rio Grande river on the 8th instant, who was esteemed by all who knew him, and beloved by those to whom he was known the longest; and whereas, it is denied us to do else than mourn his loss, by so sad and unexpected a catastrophe, by which one endowed with the attributes which constitute a good man and a good soldier is irretrievably gone; therefore, be it

Resolved, That the meeting of the officers of this garrison, of whom our lamented brother, Captain Daniel B. Haskell, was a member, do express their sense of the great loss and their heartfelt sympathy on this mournful occasion.

Resolved, That letters of confidence from the officers of this post, and from the officers of the First Regiment of Veteran Infantry, California Volunteers, of which the late Captain Daniel B. Haskell was a member, expressive of the high esteem which they had for him, and of the sorrow they feel for his loss, be written to his widow, with their assurance that they will do all in their power to alleviate the sad distress which has so befallen her.

Resolved, That these resolutions and the proceedings of this meeting be filed with the post and regimental records, and be published in the papers of California and of this Territory, and the papers of Marblehead, Massachusetts, a copy being sent to his family.

Vice President William French, First Veteran Infantry, California Volunteers, was called to the chair, when the President, Lieutenant Colonel E. A. Rigg, made the following remarks:

Mr. President: The resolutions reported by the Committee are full and express the feelings of us all, yet more, much more could be said. Captain D. B. Haskell, First Veteran Infantry. California Volunteers, entered the service of his country early in 1861, as a Lieutenant in Company C, First Infantry, California Volunteers. Through the three years he served in that regiment he obtained and deserved the esteem of his brother officers, upright, energetic and brave, with great pride in his profession, Captain Haskell obtained a high perfection in that profession. When his old regiment was mustered out, on their expiration of term of enlistment, he accepted a commission in the First Veteran Infantry, California Volunteers, with the determination to continue in the service until every vestige of the unholy rebellion was crushed out. He has suddenly been cut off in the midst of his usefulness while voluntarily assisting in crossing troops. He leaves an affectionate wife and a small family of children to mourn the loss of the husband and father. May the God who watches over the widow and the orphan throw over the bereaved family his protecting arm and shield them from want and sorrow. In the death of Captain Haskell the regiment has lost one of its best officers. His country has lost a brave heart and strong arm from its defenders. He lived to rejoice over the practical suppression of the rebellion and the vindication of the Constitution of his Government, in whose behalf he had drawn his sword, when he was suddenly summoned to answer to roll call before his Master. "Peace go with him."
