BLUMENBERG, LEOPOLD Brevet 5th Maryland Infantry
Brigadier-General, U. S. V.
After the attack on Fort Sumter he helped to organize the 5th
regiment, Maryland Volunteers, of which he was appointed Major.
He served near Hampton Roads after which he was attached to
Mansfield's Corps and participated in the Peninsular Campaign,
and subsequently in Maryland, where his regiment was engaged in
the battle of Antietam, under his command. Here he was shot in
the thigh and confined to his bed for many months. Being disabled
for further military duty President Lincoln appointed him Provost
Marshal of the 3d Maryland District. President Johnson subsequently
promoted him to the rank of Brevet Brigadier-General, U. S.
Volunteers.
It may not prove inappropriate to mention here the remarks made by
William P. Wood, Esq., one of Washington's best known gentlemen,
with reference to the late General Blumenberg in a communication to
the present writer:
"I was intimate with General Leopold Blumenberg, who commanded in
person the 5th Regiment, Maryland Volunteers; you and others of
his friends are familiar with the deserved encomiums passed upon
that gallant and kind-hearted American Jew, who received terrible
wounds in leading his regiment on the battle-field of Antietam, and
of which wounds he died after having served in several important
positions in Baltimore.
"Without being either Christian or Jew, I am familiar with many
heroes of your faith, and believe in according honor to whom honor
is due. Hoping your work will meet with the success which I believe
the subject-matter warrants, I am
Yours truly,
(Signed) William P. Wood."

1865. He was wounded at the Battle of North Anna River
(Wilderness), but rejoined his regiment after a short time, though
unable to walk without the aid of a cane, and was finally disabled,
totally, in December, 1864, at Petersburg.
Sergeant Karpeles received a medal of honor from Congress for
distinguished services in the Battle of the Wilderness, May 8,
1864, he having saved a part of the army from being captured during
a retreat in disorder by rallying troops around his colors, thereby
checking the enemy's pursuit.
PITTSFIELD, MASS.,
April 10, 1870.
This is to certify that Leopold Karpeles was a soldier under my
command during part of the late war. My estimation of his good
qualities may be judged from the fact that I entrusted him the
_colors_ of the 57th Massachusetts Infantry.
He was always faithful in the discharge of his duties as a soldier,
and if my certificate to that effect can assist him in getting
employment in some position for which he is qualified, I very
gladly give it.

This is to certify that Mr. Leopold Karpeles is a Corporal of
Company A of this regiment. * * * * In the battles of Kingston,
Whitehall and Goldsborough he bore the State colors. The
promptness with which he came upon the line of battle, and the
firmness with which he stood his ground, though his flag was
several times pierced by the bullets of the enemy, were so
conspicuous as to be the subject of remark and commendation.
I have no hesitation in endorsing him as a man who in any position
would only have to know his duty, and he would discharge it to the
best of his ability.

MY DEAR OLD COMRADE AND FRIEND:
Your letter of the 13th of May just received, and I hasten to
reply. I was glad to hear from you and glad to find you still on
the shores of mortality, where our numbers are fast diminishing.
Our duty now lies in planting the principles and memory of the
great struggle in the hearts of generations to follow us, endear
to them the old flag that you carried from the Wilderness to North
Anna, so gallantly and faithfully, and teach them to love their
country which was saved at such a sacrifice.
Yes, Karpeles, I well remember you at the Battle of North Anna; I
remember that you carried the colors of the glorious old "57th,"
far beyond any other colors; your bravery was conspicuous. I
remember that you fell, badly wounded; another Sergeant was sent
to take the colors from you but you refused to give them up but
carried them forward until loss of blood, or another wound, I have
forgotten which, compelled you to give them into the hands of
another. I remember all of this distinctly as I felt justly proud
of you as a Sergeant of Company "E." * * * *.
Please write me and accept my very best wishes.
Sincerely and fraternally yours,
JOHN ANDERSON,
1st Lieutenant, 18th Infantry,
