waiting for supports which attempted 20
ceach them, bet were cut OF on their blind
march through the corn. That field was
place Of unparalleled slaughter for both
sides. Hills division lost over half Its
number, and some bri2adrs were do
stroyed. Out of 81 field officers 6 were
killed and ~ wounded. Colonel Newton
and Major Tracy of the Sixth were among
the killed, and the regiment lost 1906 in
killed and wounded and 80 missing. Eight
line officers slept on the field Of glory b.
side their fallen commanders.
Colquitt's brigade was reorganized after
Antietaln and the ranks Of the depleted
regiments filed by recruiting. The Sixth
had respite from heavy fighting for
time. 1t was in tho front Of the column
which Stonewall jackson hurled upon
Hooker's right flank on tho plank road be-
yond charlottesville May 3, 1868, and
also in the thick of the fight at the Chan
oellorsville house on Sunday, May 8. In
the two days battles it lost but 80 men.
When Lee marched northward to Gettys-
burg, the brigade was sent to North Caro-
lima and thence to Charleston, where 1t
took a conspicuous part in the defense of
the island batteries, especially Fort Wag.
ner. In resisting the attacks on Sumter
and Wagner the regiment lost many Of
its best men.
In leaving Virginia the regiment by no
means turned away from the battle. In
the middle of the winter Of 1864 when
Lees army lay in camp on the Rapidan,
Colquitt's brigade was ordered to Florida
to help check the Federal invasion Of tho
interior Of that state. The campaign was
settled at one blow by the battle of Olustee,
or Ocean Pond, Feb. 30. At the begin
ming Of the battle tho Sixth was detached
from the brigade and sent to the extreme
left of the Confederate position where at.
tack was least expected But the unex-
pected happened and tho regiment was
heavily engaged for four hours. Tho car.
fridge boxes of the fighting men were emp
tied and those of the dead and wounded
on the field riaed for supplies, and tho
regiment held its ground until Colquitt
brought up the full brigade to it's support.
The Contederates won the day, and after
seeing the country cleared of Federals for
good the Georgians started north again,
hating for time at Charleston. The
Sixth lost SO killed and wounded at Olus-
tee.
When the campaign opened in May,
1864. Colquitt was ordered to Virginia and
reached Richmond just as General Butler
was advancing upon the city from the
south. His command joined Beauregard
for the defense of Drewry's Bluff on the
10th Of May. Beauregard took the initia-
tive and attacked Butler at daylight. The
Sixth supported General Ransom 8 charge,
which ut a swoop carried the Federal
breastworks, and came out with q loss Of

FIFTY YEARS AFlAME.
4 0cottiah Coal Minc That Eas Ueeo
Burning Half Century.

There Is q coal mine in Scotland, located
between tho railway stations Of Daily anu
Kilkerran, that has been burning continu-
eusly for so years.
In tho working of this mine. which
produced a lacd and dirty coal, the scam
dipped suddenly, and the shaft communi-
eating with the lower works was ut a dis
tance from the ono which led up to the
surface of the ground. A second engine
became necessary, and it was placed ut the
head Of the lower shaft. Half q century
ago it had to be run by steam generated
on the spot instead Of by electricity gen.
Grated elsewhere, us would be done now,
and one day the coal in the neighborhood
Of tho machinery, having become quite
dry and intiamnlable, caught fire.
The engine man tried to put It out, but
failed, and signaled to be brought to tho
surface, the other miners having Knocked
off work for the duy. Ten minutes after
he was on terra flrma the fire had mat:o
such Roadway that the flames were r,ur.
ing up tho shaft and rising to height OF
80 feet in tho air. 1t was, Of course, I'M
possible to put it out, and in timo the fire
gradually grew less, but it remained burn
ing and great fears were entertained lest
it should communicate with other pits and
even wreck the whole mining industry
Of the ncighborhood.
An engineer who was sont for from
London to endeavor to put out the fire
bored holes in tho neighborhood Of tho pit
in order to pump In a gas which was
iuimical to the IRE. This scheme, how.
ever, was failure, and it was found
that the fro was extending, for tho trap
dixie, which had been cut in order to get
into closer proximity to the fire, opened
tho way to tho scan! 10! ord, ard it IL this
seam which has been burning ever since.
Thousands If pounds wcrc spent IN the
endcavor to qucnch the fire and how many
thousand rounds worth Of coal have been
used II would be impossible to say.
Eight or ton years ago the fire came to
the surface within few yards Of wEcro
the train went by, and, as may be imog-
incd, nervous passengers wcro often alarm
ed at seeing the evidences of the fire ana
steam issuing from tho bowels Of tho
earth, for the pit seems to he the recipient
of some little stream which tho heat con-
verts into steam, which rises from half a
dozen jets in tho most uncanny manner.

90 killed and wounded. This battlo saved
Richmond for time, but the Confederates
were disappointed that Butler was allowed
to escape.
After seeing Butler disposed Of Colquitt's
brigade crossed the James to help Lee head
off Grant, and on the 1stu. June the Sixth
stood on the same ground where it had
fought two years before in the battle Of
Gaines Mill. The Federal charges of the
1st and Sd were easily repulsed with no
loss to the Confederates worth naming.
In front OF the Sixth the Eighth New York
heavy artillery lost over 500 mon killed
and wounded in a single charge. A Geor-
gia officer who was there says: "Our men
stood perfectly cool and deliberate and al
most every shot brought down Its man.
The ground in front OF our works was lit
orally covered with Federal dead and
wounded"
Immediately after the bloody ropulse of
Grants efforts at Cold Harbor, Colquitt
returned to the south of the James and o.
cupied the trenches at Petersburg. The
command built the famous salient on the
east of the city in front of Hare's hill,
where tho Federal Fort Stedman was To-
Gated. The slaughter of FederaB in front
Of Colquitt's salient was equal to that of
Col" arbor. 1t was there that the First
N: Heavy Artillery lost 632 mon killed
anu wounded In single charge on the
18th of June.
For 60 days tho Georgians stood under
fire in those trenches, and il is we'll known
history that every attempt of Grant to
force them failed. During that time the
Sixth lost "a killed and so wounded. Its
commander, Colonel Arnold, was killed
July Z.
When Grant began operations to turn
Lees left at the Weldon road, Colquitt
once more rushed to the point of danger.
His brigade fought in Hills column at
Globe Tavern on the 10th of September in
the attack on General Warren's forces,
which had seized strip of the railroad to
out of Lees supplies coming from the
south. The Sixth joined in q flank attack
on Warren, led by General Malone. En-
tering the fight $50 strong, it bore of as
trophies four Federal battlef1ags and the
commander Of brigade of Pennsylva-
mans, together with his staff and 1000
men. This swoop was made by penetrat-
ing between the pickets and picket re-
serves and the main line of Fedorals.
Globe Tavern was the last recorded bat
tie Of the regiment. 1t lost killed and 80
wounded that day, making q total of 1888
killed and $50 wounded. During the win
ter following, when the troops were com.
paratively idle, an application for fur
Tough for one of its men was approved by
General A. P. Hill, with tho following
Endorsement, "Approved because the Sixth
Georgia has asked for few favors and has
acted nobly on every battlefield"
