"James William Bromley enlisted in Company B, Second Regiment, May 8, 1861, being the first one who went from this town for three years; re-enlisted Dec 21, 1863, and was promoted to sergeant. He was in over 30 pitched battles; his health was good though his entire term of service. No soldier in the Vermont brigade possessed a better reputation. His reenlistment in Dec 63, arose from his unbounded patriotism and determination to see the rebellion put to an end. After having escaped death in all its forms, and on the day previous to the fall of Richmond, the last stronghold of the rebellion, and an achievement for which our armies had fought for nearly five years, and which his own valor had helped to achieve, he fell in the front of battle, fighting for the country he loved."
