oy G. H. Marsh. The left of our regiment
rested on the road leading from Pitisburg
Landing TO Corinth by way ofShiloh Church.
Our division was camped in an open field.
The lines of most all the other troops were
IN the timber. The first know edge the
troops of our immediate command had of the
battle was the sound of heavy musketry be-
ing heard in the direction of Shiloh Church.
This was about or o'clock Sunday
morning, April 6, 1862. Some of the troops
were not up yet. Our division WAS imme-
diately formed IN lie of battle and moved
10 the front to support Gen. Sherman. Our

fusion, and stragglers were fleeing in all
directions except the direction facing the
enemy.
Across the valley the enemy was seen adj
vancing in solid column, and they came on
with a rush. We could hear the rebel yell
as they crossed the valley. They charged
mp the hill, and our brigade received them
with a murderOus vOlley which decimated
their ranks. but did not appear to check
them In their rush. Our brigade was forced
back about a quarter of mile TO where a
battery Of our artillery was stationed. The
enemy still came sweeping on but were
met with a steady fire from our troops,
while our artillery (Boulton's battery, /
bei;eve) did good execution, and made sad
havoc IN the enemys ranks.
1t was now about 9 or 10 p. M, and we
bad checked the enemy in our front, aud
held oar position in the face of overwhelm-
ing numbers.
Gen. Grant rode up about this time, and
john a. Rawlins and Capt. Rowley, Aid
de-Camp, were with him. This was the
Generals first appearance on the field OF

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In your
issue of March 10, 1892, comrade signing
himself Right General Guide" Co A, 4Sth
Pa, tells Of a rabbit chase in front of Peters
burg, Va, and asks who caught the rabbit"
No doubt there are many of your readers
who were present on the occasion referred
TO and remember it. and who would like to
know what did become of the rabbit With
your permission / will answer the comrades
question.
During the night before New Years Day,
1865 it showed at Petersburg, and the next
day, as by common consent, all hands Yanks
and Johnnies, engaged in a big rabbit hunt,
popping away with their muskets in all
directions and raising such a racket, as all
soldiers remember, as was invariably an
accompaniment of rabbit chase.
Comrade James A. Smith, Co. L, 200th Pa,
had several times noticed very large rabbit
IN the rear of the camp Of his regiment He
now proposed TO look for Bunny, and was
not long in starting him up.
The rabbit started off between the 200th
Pa. and Fort Steadman the boys all along
joining i'll the chase. The rabbit ran too
near Fort Malone, and then turned back.
The sound OF the cheering told COmrade
Smith that he was coming, so he stationed a
New York artilleryman in the road and
himself in path parallel to it in the brush
to wait for the rabbit. He soon appeared in
the road, and seeing the artilleryman he left
the road and took to the path. Comrade
Smith threw himself on the ground on his
elbows and knees with the cape of his over
coat thrown forward in such a way as TO
form what appeared to the rabbit hole into
which he could retreat. In he bolted, and
was thus caught.
The c0mrade who caught him is Post
| master at New Cumberland, Pa, and has
been for nearly % years continuously, and
it goes without saying that The universal
verdict. from the Hon. Postmaster-Gene
to the humblest individual who receives mail
at his Office is that there is not a more hon
est, 0bliging, or efficient official in Uncle
Sans service. Long may he distribute the
mail at New Cumberland.

origin at that same camp. 1t will be inter.

First Memorial Window,

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In your
paper of Aug 81 appeared an item claiming
by one Rev. Lewis, of st. Louis, the erection
of the first memorial window in 1883, and a
comrade from Michigan claims the first
honor in 1887.
j. b. Sample Post, 40, Fort Madison,
Iowa, Department of Iowa, erected men,
orial window in the Fall of 1897 and placed
it in the first NJ. E. Church at Fort Madison,
Iowa. The design is II full American flag
hanging down from the top, and looped up
in the center at the bottom, and in the loop
an oval design containing an anchor, and
underneath the anchor a scroll containing
the words: Erected by the GAR, in
memory of the soldiers and sailors, 1861 to
1866"
The window was designed at st. Louis,
and when designer was first spoken to said
he had never heard or thought of anything
of the kind so you see Iowa is abreast of

enemy a fresh volley and then charge.
The order was promptly Obeyed, and for
the first time that day we forced back a
number superior TO cur own. The ground
now occupied by us was heavily timbered
with trees varying alt the way in size from
two inches 10 two feet in diameter The
ground was strewn with the wounded and
dead, mostly Alabama troops, and the cries
and means of the wounded were heartrend-
ing. A fresh column of troops suddenly
moved in on us from the left. and being out
