Excerpt from The American-Irish Historical Society: Annual Address of the President General Brothers of the American-Irish Historical Society: Honored far beyond expectation and desert in your recent choice of President-General of this Society, it surely is becoming in me to give here first place to some recollections of a departed brother, our first President-General, whose name will ever remain conspicuous on the roll of fame and of his country's glory. Admiral Meade, Our First President-General. "Memory, gray old warder, throw open thy portals in welcome Wide to the dead - our dead - he loved us well in his life-time." In pleasant remembrance we recall a few of the incidents in the career of Richard W. Meade, as they stand recorded in the Naval archives of the great Republic which he served so faithfully and well. Born in the City of New York, October 9, 1837, he was appointed midshipman from California, in his 13th year. In July, 1853, a lad of 16, he was present at the "Kosta Affair," in the harbor of Smyrna, and shortly before attaining his majority he was commissioned lieutenant, January 23, 1858. After the breaking out of the civil war he was employed, in cooperation with Gen. W. T. Sherman, in breaking up the guerrilla bands along the Mississippi River, being in command of a steam gunboat. Afterwards he was stationed on Stono River, South Carolina, on picket duty; was there attacked by Gen. Del Kamper with sixteen pieces of artillery and a strong supporting force, the object being to capture or sink Lieut. Meade's gunboat, the "Marblehead," whose crew consisted of only seventy men. After a sharp fight of over an hour - the gunboats "Pawnee" and "Williams" coming to the aid of the "Marblehead" - the enemy was routed and driven from his works with the loss of two 8-inch guns and many men. The "Marblehead," although struck in the hull thirty times, had only three of her crew killed and six wounded.
