Company I, Fourth Massachusetts Regiment,

Minute Men of '61

(Lincoln Light Infantry)

On April 15, 1861, at eight p.m. orders were received by the Captain to report his company in Boston the next day, but for some reason the members were not notified until the afternoon of the sixteenth in three hours from which time they were assembled and ready for duty. There being no means of transportation to Boston at that hour, their departure was delayed until the next day.
