AN INCIDENT RECALLED.


Il a singular fact that the first memorial
address, and the model of all yet ever delivered
above the graves of our heroic dead, was de-
livered on the greatest battlefield Of the war
by civilian and not by a soldier. This seems
TO me suggestive of the duty of the people for
all time to come. No greater mistake can be
made than that this day belongs exclusively to
the Grand Army of the Republic. 1t is of much
broader and grander significance. 1t belongs
"a the nation. The Grand Army of the Re
nnbIic is swiftly passing to the grave. In a
few wears more we shall all rest in the dust
And when we are gone then the pious task we
now perform will be taken mp by the whole
natriotic people Of the United States.

dress the people sang America" and were

Batteries TO the Front.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: We have had
so much in THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE about Do
Gress's battery that to me at least, IL is great
relief TO have one old comrade di-gress.
notice in your issue of the 9th of December
that Comrade w. w. Fiuton claims that the I'd
Ohio battery, had fewer men killed than any
other battery, considering the amount of serv-
ice under fire. As he does not give tho full
service of that battery cannot well judge, but
il has always seemed TO me that no battery
could have been more lucky than Battery NJ,
LIST Ill. L. A. That battery was under fire IT'S
days and fired 7,S45 rounds at the enemy--not
ut al long range" had 30 horses killed In bat
tie, and lost only two men killed on the held,
and one who died from wounds. At Chicka-
manga il was the battery that held Lougstreet
at bay when he attempted TO pass through the
famous gap and repuised 10 Of his charges with
double. shotted canister on that hot Sunday af-
ternoon. IL was engaged az Rocky Face. Re-
SAGA, Adaisville, Calhoun, Kingston, Peach
Tree Creek Misunderstanding canister in Hoods
charge there), Atlanta, and engaged many
other times on that campaign TO and around
Atlanta and out to Lovej0y. AZ Kenesaw and
Dallas IL was holly engaged with several rebel
batteries, silencing them in neat style, as IL did
many other rebel batteries during Its service,
and was never silenced either by battery, In
fantry or sharpshootcr. At Chiekamauga It's
No. 3 gun did most excellent work until near
night, when, out OF ammunition, It's men manned

you once more. The infantry and cavalry We
grant, did grand deeds. but we. too. occasion

A SAD AEEAIR



EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Permit me
10 tell the readers of your paper about sad az
fair that took place five miles south of Somer
set. Ky, at place called Stegall's Ferry, on
the Cumberland Although i am getting old
and my recollection is bad, the scenes enacted
that fatal morning arc still as fresh in my mind
as an occurrence Of yesterday.
A few days before the event which ! am
about 10 relate took place, Gen. 8. p. Carters
Division, which had been ordered to Somerset
In the Spring Of 1863, crossed the river and
drove the rebel Gen. Pegram back to the mount
aims bordering on Tennessee. The only regi-
ments that j can recollect on this expedition
were Woiford's LIST Ky. Cav; I'd Tenn, Col. j.
NJ. Melton; 103d Ohio, Col. Jack Easement,
and the 9th n. j.. Lieut.-Col Babeock.
On returning TO the river we found 10 very
much swollen, the advance (Wolford's Ist
Ky. Cav crossing by means Of two ferryboats,
which were pulled across by largo ropes. Co.
G. % Tenn. claimed the rig ht TO the boat after
Wolford had crossed, but this claim was contest
ed by one company of the 9th N. j., and
hot words ensued. At last our Captain ordered
us TO give way for the Jersey boys, whose com
paDy numbered just SIS men present They
now crossed on the little boat and began pull
| ing for the opposite shore. They had, perhaps
made one-third OF the distance across when the
boat capsized, and 80, just three fifths of all
On board, found watery grave beneath the
angry waves of the Cumberland.
| i do not wish to provoke a discussion by
/ giving my opinion as 10 the cause of the dis.
aster. as no two persons seemed to fully agree
about the matter at the time, but / hope
/ IL any Of the survivors of that Inflated com.
pany should see this, they will give the readers
of THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE their version OF
the affair, which would more likely be correct
| than any statement we can make-W. M

THE BATTERY HORSES.


EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: The articles
on the Shenandoah Valley, by Gen. Capehart
alone are worth years subscription, and the
replies and letters they brought out will be
worth as much more. The General must DC
mistaken in stating that the artillery horses
were ridden away ut the battle OF Port he-
public, Va, June o, 1862. ! was taken prisoner
by Jackson's men, and passed by the captured
battery. There were no live horses to be seen,
and the dead ones lay in windrows as they fell.
Our regiment halted on the retreat for two guns
of Huntingtons battery to pass by, drawn Dy
four horses to a gun. This halt resulted in the
capture of many Of our men. On last Meho-
rial Day met George Eastlick, OF my COM
mand, whom | had not recognized since We
separated on that battlefield, myself prison
or, while he retreated walking seven miles
with a terrible wound in the head, which was
afterward treated by trepanning. Even on
the battlefield was amused to see q soidier
called "Scottyn passing to the rear with q
captured cannon. We had routed part OF
Jackson's men in good style, but were nnaiiy
overwhelmed by superior numbers
had expected something neat in regard 20
the old Union soldiers as the result oil den'
Harrison's election, but nothing appears more
meTtorous TO me than the appointment OF that
grand old gentleman and soldier, Gen. Nathan
Kimball, TO be Postmaster Mt Ogden, Utan.
1t seems incredible to believe that GO. +,
135th Ohio, (a I00-days regiment) lost one
third more men as the result Of their service
than my own company lost during almost four
years of war, and we had fought at kerns-
town, Port Republic, Charlottesville, Cedar
Mountain, Gettysburg, Lookout Mountain,
Dug Gap, Resaca, New Hope Church, Pine Hill,
Peach Tree Creek, Savannah and North Eds
to. The 135th men were captured at North
Mountain, Va, and number 80 dead at Flor
ence and Camden, s. c.; Milen and Anderson,
vile, Ga. OF 149 men of my command 70 died
in the South, four fell at Port Republic. two
at Cedar Mountain, one at Gettysburg, one at
Charlottesville and three in the assault nj
Dug Gap. Ga, May 8, 1864.
In the Summer of 1876 the writer called
upon Capt. Charles w. Kellogg, at Philadel-
phia who opened drawer aud carefully took
out and unrolled O triangular-shaped flag, with
white border, blue field and white star IN
the center. 1t was recognized as the head
quarters flag so long carried at the head OF the
First Brigade, Geary's Second Division, TWEEN
tieth Corps, and ably commanded by Col. Chas
Candy and Gen. Ario Pardee, jr. 1t is hoped
that at some future Reunion of the old brigade
Capt. Kellogg will exhibit the flag.
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE deserves th'
hearty support Of the Union soldiers for III
gallant defense Of their rights and interests
