Days Struggle at Gettysburg.

After the first days fight at Gettysburg
the writer was ordered to take platoon of
men and go over the field to bury the dead
and care for the wounded. My first sub
ject for burial was young man Of per-
haps thirty years, who did not die sudden
ly. There was evidence of a struggle, and
the torn fragments Of letters lying around
showed he had a secret that he wished to
die with him. But the broken pieces of an
old-fashioned daguerrotype lying by his
side gave me curiosity to learn his name.

me the sad information of her betrothaI to

had destroyed.
Our next was that of a Federal cavalry
man apparently dead, and who was wear
ing an elegant pair of boots. The guard
under my command were scattered over
half mile Of territory. noticed party
of three or four assembled around this cav
alrynan, apparently undecided as to what
to do. soon learned that they were de-
batting as to whether or not they should take
the boots or bury them with him. At the
moment of my joining the squad they were
disputing over the spOils, when the matter
was brought TO close by The dead cavalry
man himself. He had heard what was said,
and in q sepulchral voice asked that he be
allowed decent burial with his boots on.
As he had TO oil appearances risen from the
dead, his request was unanimously granted.
We sent him comfortably to the hospital,
and hope he is alive to day.
Our next work revealed to Us q sight, if
possible. more touching than anything the
