summer private was court-martialed for
sleeping on his post out near Chain

convicted-his sentence was death-the
finding was approved of by the General,
and the day fixed for his execution. He
was youth of more than ordinary intel

was willing to meet his fate. The time
drew near-the stern necessity of war re-
quired that an example should be made
of some one--his was an aggravated case.
But the case reached the ears of the Pre-.
sident-he resolved to save him-he i'm
mediately signed pardon and sent it
out--the day came. Suppose thought
the President, my pardon has not reach

ordered. 1t came, and soon the impor-

From the accounts given in the Rich

near Yorktown, forty-four rebels were killed
and ninty-two wounded of the 18th North
Carolina regiments. The 18th Georgia and
I'd LOUISIANA regiments were pitted against
the Vermont boys at the same time and as
they are described as having been in the
thickest of the fight during four hours, their
loss must have been of corresponding
character, so that the killed may reasona bly,
be estimated at about 100 and the wounded
at 200.
