    • Received from Dean G. Grow, 20 Sept 2011

      Second Lieutenant Orrin R. Grow, the youngest of the commissioned officer of the Utah Batteries when they left this city for the Philippines, was born in the 19th Ward of Salt Lake City, October 20, 1873. As a lad he attended the districtls of this city and later was enrolled at the University of Utah, where he remained for several years. He commenced his military life in 1889, when he joined the Denhalter Rifes as bugler. He was soon promoted to a sergeant's position - then to a Lieutenancy.
      On March 23, 1892 when Denhalters joined the National Guard of Utah in a body, Mr. Grow, then First Lieutenant was unanimously chosen Captain of the company, which has been known ever since as Company A. Later he was elected Major of thet Battalion,l which position he held when war was declared with Spain.
      Governor Wells appointed Mr. Grow Second Lieutenant of Battery B. He left with the battery for Manila May 20th, 1898 and remained with that organization until January 13th, 1899, when he sailed for home, because of serious ill health. Heed home February 21st, 1899.
      At that "baptism of fire" as the battle of Malate, July 31st, was called the young Lieutenant won the undying admiration of the men who served under him. No veteran could have commanded the situation with greater coolness and intrepiditys comrades delight to call him "the hero of Malate." Col. Hawkins, who was in command of the trenches, commended him for gallantry and efficient service.
