It gives me real pleasure to be able to mention

deeply tie heavy responsibility resting npon his
shoulders, remsined cool and self. possessed asa
bo If ftLis portion Of our Inc Was broken. Yet tue
rebel legons hsd advanced entirely up to our rade
Eorsr, and rebel color bearer stuck his dctsstca
flag into one OF the logs composing them. He al
most instantly paid for his auiacity with bis life,
being both efot aud b1yoneted where be stood,
Whiethe rebels were pressing With e1ultant shouts

the 1r4th, we're sh!f:ed round In such way that
they were erab]cd to pour into the advancing enc.
once chilled bis ardor, and sent him to the right
about. Again they essayed to charge; bnt " this
time tie gallant Colonel Hobart had placed the sec
terribly in the conflict, and again the rebel flooa
vas rolled hack. Tins glorlously did Gil. McCook
inaugurate his new comm and and showed hi4s:ifa
worthy nametake Of him whose blood bathnd the
