Captain Ogg's Story.

Capt. A. l.. Ogg of Company g of
the Third Iowa Infantry is one of the
veterans who shows it in every move
ment He took the first company out
from Indianola, Iowa, and of his 100
men seventy We're college students.
1t was brave, manly crowd, and the
end of the war found fifty of them
alive. Capt Ogg says that he cannot
say for certain, but he thinks that the
hottest fight he was ever in was that
storm of powder and lead at Shiloh.
my company was trying to save u
Michigan battery" said he, "and we
saved it, too, but we had to pick it up
and take it away with us The Rebels
fought like demons, and it was in
reality succession OF separate and
desperate battles. 1t has been called
by soldiers the battle without Gener-
ais, and that is about what 1t was. In
spite of official protesta ton that it was
not n surprise, almost every man who
took part in the fight is satisfied that
it was--and as complete as was desired.
But whether people agree on that
point or not. there is no difference on
the question of its being one Of the
hottest battles of the war" Capt. Ogg
was pretty well shot to pieces. The
surgeons thought that the shot that
tore through his side, but the veteran
himself doesn't think so, as he almost
entirely recovered from that. He is
inclined to blame the bullet that tore
his right wrist to pieces and ruined his
arm forever as his worst enemy.

received from the outside was per the
