A late addition of period Civil War field gear from a soldier of the 24th Maine Regiment. The lot consisting of Regulation Union Infantry issued Knapsack, Haversack, Rain Poncho and Canteen. Found together, the Knapsack and Poncho bear the stenciled ID "Pvt. Purley (sic) Whittier, Vienna, Me. Co. K 24th, Me. Reg't". The 24th Maine Reg. Volunteers saw duty in the department of the Gulf. According to records at Historical Data Systems the Regiment lost one lone soldier in action but better than 100 brave troops died from sickness while hundreds of others were incapacitated by diseases bred by the warm climate of the Gulf area.
