"REMINISCENCES OF FORT WAGNER.
Some Interesting Facts.

Correspondence Of the K0rnjug Ne1rs.
SEPTEMBER 9TH, 1SS3.-I see by the
MORNING NEWS of the 18th ultimo an ar
ticle headed "reminiscences of Fort
Wagner and the burial of a gallant New
Hampshire Colonel under the Battery
walls by a Confederate officer"
Now, sir, there has been much said and
written about the gallant defense of Bat
terry Wagner on the 18th of July, 1868, and
the burial of two Federal officers on the
18th.
dislike to appear in print, but as one
who commanded those gallant GeOrgians
who were in charge of the few guns left
us on that ever-tO-be-remembered night of
the 18th of July, 1863, and who had every
opportunity TO know and see what was
going ON in and around Battery Wagner
on the 18th and 18th of July, | may be per-
mitted TO say that | think both that the
Confederate and Federal officers are mis-
taken about the burial Of those officers.
Surgeon Luck, of the Federal Navy. is
made to say, in your article of the 10th,
that he saw the body of Colonel Shaw
laying on the outside of the parapet as he
was carried into the Fort. He was Ger
tainly mistaken, for Colonel Shaw fell on
the top of tue ramparts. and there Law Un-
til almost morning, when a detail was
made upon me for the burial of the dead.
and he and his cOmrades-in-arms were
buried just outside Of the Battery, where
he fell.
| don't recollect seeing General Il. II.
Anderson in the Battery on the 18th Col
Onel Edward {. Anderson called on me
some time late in the day after the bodies
were buried and requested me to show
him the bodies of COlonels Putnam and
Shaw. as he wanted to identify them for
huri11 / rpDIinI him fbat I did NOT
know that l could find the bodies. as they
were buried with their cOmrades-in-arms
They were buried some time before the
flag Of truce was sent, because General
TaliaferrO was relieved by General HagOod,
for | very we'll remember General HagoOd's
reply 10 the officers who asked for the body
of Colonel shaw.
Again say there has been much written
about Battery Wagner. l find in a work
written by Charles COwlev. entitled
- Leaves from a Lawyers Life, AflOat and
Ashore on page so, giving to Major
Ramsey, of South Carolina, the honor of
raising the Confederate flag after it was
shot down on that ever r-tO-be-remembered
18th of July. The writer of this work Is
mistaken when he says that the flag was
lashed to a mast and returned to its place
by Major Ramsey. That honor belongs to
Georgia, and if Major Ramsey, as brave
and gallant an officer as ever went into
Wagner, were alive to-day, he would
scOrn to take from Georgia that honor. for
it belongs to Georgia and her sons, whom /
had the honor to command, and who rep
resented Georgia in the greatest lombard
ment, think, that was ever on this con-
tinent. / trust that this will be satisiac-
tory as showing that COlOnels Putnam
and Shaw were buried on Morris Island,
near Battery Wagner, by the detail made
for the burial of the dead by the sea.
