Document signed “Israel Cohen” on the reverse of a stock certificate, 10” x 6”, for 100 shares of Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road Company, issued to Cohen, Baltimore, January 7, 1858, VG. Cohen served in Captain Nicholson’s Company of Fencibles. The Fencibles, led by Captain Joseph Hopper Nicholson, were Federalized militia who were invited to serve with Captain Evans' Regular Corps of Artillery within the walls of Fort McHenry due to the large number of regular artillerymen who were ill and unfit for duty. The Fencibles were the only non-regulars to serve within the star fort.
