similar order then given to the ~ KIN regiment,
wnich stood opposite Twenty-fourth street. and
which did all the execution. Then the firing be-
that general order to fire had been given. On the
northeast corner OF Twenty-rourth street. or facing

House. When the smoke OF battle had cleared
away DR.. Lordly counted twenty-three Killed and
wounded lying prostrate on the sidewalk. Thirteen
wounded were taken into the store, OF which
