Luther C. LADD, was the first to fall in defense of his country in the War of the Rebellion. He was the son of John Ladd, and was born in Bristol, Dec. 22, 1843, on the John Ladd farm, south of Fowler's river, east of the highway, near the lake. He was named for Rev. Luther Crawford, a Freewill Baptist clergyman, a native of Alexandria. Luther C. Ladd continued to reside in Bristol till 1853, when his father removed to Alexandria. There he remained laboring on a farm and attending the district schools, till 1860, when he went to Lowell and obtained work in the Lowell Machine shop. When President Lincoln issued his first call for 75,000 men in April, 1861, young Ladd enlisted for three months in Co. D, 6th Regt., Mass. Vols., which was the first to respond to the call. On the 19th of April, while passing through Baltimore, this regiment was attacked by a mob. Luther C. Ladd was the first to fall. He received a fracture of the skull, and while still moving forward, was struck by a bullet which severed an artery in the thigh. It is said that his dying words were "All hail the stars and stripes!" Addison O. Whitney, of Lowell, was also killed, and Merrill S. Wright of Lawrence died Apr. 27, of wounds then received. The bodies of these three were returned north for interment. They arrived at the Worcester depot, in Boston, Wednesday, May 2, where an immense concourse had gathered. The Independent Cadets escorted the remains to King's Chapel, where they were placed in the tomb under the church. The governor and his staff were present, and the Boston Brigade band played a dirge. The funeral of Ladd and Whitney was held at Lowell; that of Wright, at Lawrence. A special train conveyed the bodies to Lowell, where they were met at the station by a large escort, under the command of Capt. Proctor, and the municipal authorities, all under the command of Chief Marshal Sawtelle. Business was generally suspended. Exercises were held at Huntington hall, and this vast hall was densely packed and thousands were unable to gain admission. The relatives entered the hall first; the mayor and other distinguished men occupied seats on the platform. The caskets containing the deceased were enveloped in flags and rested under a magnificent canopy supported by four columns, surmounted by a gilt eagle. The exercises consisted of a dirge by the Lowell Brigade band, reading the Scriptures, prayer by Rev. Dr. Cleveland, anthem by St. Ann's choir, discourse by Rev. W. R. Clark, from Psalm 137: 5, 6.The bodies were then placed in the receiving tomb. The next day the remains of Ladd were taken to Alexandria, escorted by W. L. North, president of the common council, and Alderman J. P. Folsom. The funeral the next day at Alexandria was attended by a vast concourse of people. "The Bristol Home Guards, under the command of Col. S. H. Rollins, and the Alexandria Phalanx, under the command of Capt. Sleeper, did escort duty. Darwin Forbes was marshal." Three salutes were fired over the grave. The remains were interred in the village cemetery, but afterward returned to Lowell, and they now rest under the Ladd and Whitney monument in that city. From the fact that young Ladd was a resident of Alexandria when he went to Lowell, Alexandria, instead of Bristol, has been named as his birthplace in the printed accounts of his death.
