Terrible Day for the 9Th III. on the Field Of sho.


EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Our
Cairo, ILL.,, July 26, 1861, for three years.
1t had just served as three months regi-
ment. The regiment was at Forts Henry
and Donelson. AT Fort Donelson l was
one of the wounded, and returned from the
hospital at Paducah and rejoined my COM
pany only a few days before the battle of
Shiloh. 1 found the regiment camped
about one mile from Pittsburg Landing.
At that time l was First Sergeant of our
company.
During our three months service and up
to Friday, April 4, 1862, the uniform of the
9th ILL., was gray, with stiff, high, gray
hat. On Friday, April 4, a new blue uni
form was issued to the regiment to replace
the gray suit, and the Sunday morning of
the battle was the first time we put on the
blue.
The 9th Ill. was in the Second Brigade,
Second Division, commanded by Gen.
W. H. l.. Wallace, who was killed Sunday
afternoon. Our brigade commander was
Col. August Mersey. On Sunday morn.
ing, April 6, the morning the battle OF
Shiloh commenced, my company had had
morning roll-call and we had eaten our
breakfast; the boys, most of them, were
getting ready for Sunday mornings in
spection, never thinking a battle was so
near on.
| can never forget the sound of the first
cannon shots. At the time we heard them
fighting had been going on at the front
for some time. but our camp was so far to
the rear that we did not hear the musketry
firing. Our drum sounded the long roll.
and the order to fall in you could hear all
over our camp. While the companies were
forming on our color-line we first heard the
sound of musketry.
When we formed it was certainly half,
past eight o'clock or later. How long we
remained before called on to move to the
front can not say. During all this time
the regiments in the camps near us were
forming, and Orderlies and Aids gallopine

A Military Execution,

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: l saw
mention of one johnson, who was exc
cuted in the Summer of 1863 at Corinth,
Miss. This execution took place in the
command then under Gen. G.. NJ Dodge,
who commanded the left wing of the
Sixteenth Corps.
AS remember it now, this man had been
in the rebel army in the first place, and
deserted somewhere in the vicinity of
Corinth, came over and enlisted in Co. d,
1st Ala. Union) Cav. Shortly after he
had drawn full equipment he deserted
and went back to the COnfederacy, taking
the equipment with him. Not long after
his deSertlon from us he was captured by
Co ID, with others, while burning a bridge
within our lines. He was given trial by
courtmartial and sentenced to be shot.
All the army in and around Corinth
We're marshalled on the old parade and
drill ground southeast of the town, to wit
ness the execution.
The army was formed into a hollow
square. About the center of the opening
grave was dug. In due time came an
ambulance containing the prisoner, his
spiritual adviser, and coffin, with the exc
cutiOn officers and guard following. The
band played funeral dirge the full length
OF the route. When the march was ended
open grave, the boys who bore it were sent
to their respective commands; and as most
surroundings and circumstances in army
life have a ridiculous side, this case was no
exception. Two Of those boys who bore
the coffin in the march belonged to the same
company with myself, and when they
came into ranks l never saw two fellows
more out of humor than they We're. They
swore they wished he had been shot at
his capture" and said they had not been so
near played out since they had been in
service.
The execution was carried out by Col
Barnhill, Provost Marshal of the command,
assisted by Capt. H. l.. Burnham, Provost
Marshal of Corinth. The firing squad

rice Mdgdzine, it would be hard to rival the
feat of Ensign Gillis, in the recent Cuban
war, who saw a stay torpedo coming slowly
but surely toward the anchored torpedo
boat Porter. He sprang overheard, turned
the nose of the torpedoin a safer direction,
and an screwed l up up the firing pin tightly SO
water, he saluted Lieut.. Fremont and re
ported: "Sir, have to report / have cap
tured torpedo" Bring it on board, sir"
commanded Fremont; and Gillis actually
did SO, swimming with it to the ship and
fastening tackle to it.

and the good wishes of the entire household,
white and black followed us as we started
to find our way back to our company.
Foster told us to take the first road to the
left, which he thought would lead us into
the road followed by our command, but
when he added that it was fully 10 miles to
the junction we looked at each other in
dismay, and started at once.
At the designated crossroad we turned
to the left and hurried on, for darkness
was rapidly settling over us and before we
had gone two miles it became as dark as
Egypt. We stopped occasionally to listen
for bugles, but none could be heard, neither
could glimmering campfire be seen: We
were soon in the midst of a vast pine forest,
without sign of house, and to add to our
shower, but a regular tropical downpour
that never stopped till nearly daylight.
About s o'clock we came to "A log hut,
through whose chinks a welcome light
shOne brightly. 1t was negro cabin, and
we rejoiced at the prospect of shelter, but
storm upon learning that smallpox
patient lay dying within.
After fioundering through the mud an
hour or two longer we came to the sorry
conclusion that we were completely lost
The road We were following led into another
but did not cross it, and we knew not which
direction to go.
A careful examination of the trees by
the sense of touch, for we could hardly see
a foot ahead of us, satisfied us that we were
on the line OF march, for the familiar blaze
shone on tree near the junction of the two
l ads. In the darkness we could not deter
mine whether we were ahead of or behind
the army, so we prepared shelter in q
fence corner and slert till morning.
An examination OF the road at daybreak
convinced us that the army had not YET
passed, so we waited, and just after sunrise
the advance appeared at the top of hill a
mile in our rear.
When they came up we were glad tc
recognize our own company in the advance
| We fell in and were content to look for nt
further adventures that day.-E. NJ. DAY

WITH THE FANS
Base Ball Players Now
Doing Serious Practice.
Battery Team From the Town Barracks
Detal-Stars aud KimshImehl-
Next Game.

There will be no base ball this af-
ternoon on account of the races. The
next game OF the regular league series
will be played next Saturday. when
the Stars and the Rams" will again
face each other.
There will be an exhibition game
Monday morning between Battery X
and Kamehameha. The reputation of
the latter team is well known. and as
the battery boys desire to show that
they are a good team. the play will
probably be exciting.
All the teams are taking advantage
of the long interval between games
and are putting in some hard practice.
The Stars and the Rams" alternate
on the Makiki grounds and every even
ing one may see some pretty practice
work.
The Artillery in particular is en-
deavoring to improve its play. Lieut..
Hancock, who was recently elected
manager, is proving himself the right
man for the place. He is thoroughly
popular with all the players and they
are doing well under his direction. The
men who made the poor showing last
Saturday have been dropped, and bet
ter players put in their places. Ii is
intended if possible to make the team
one composed solely of members OF
Battery |. This is done because when
portion of the team is from the sol
diers stationed at the barracks at the
park, and the remainder from those
stationed in town the proper practice
cannot be obtained. Even when they
do practice, one part in town the 9TH
ers at the park, when they combine
and appear on the field the team work
which is so essential, is entirely lack
ing. 1t is next to impossible for the
men to get off at the same time anC
practice together. For this reason il
is advisable for the entire team to b,
selected from one place or another
The only question is whether the bet
ter aggregation can be chosen from
Battery /, or from the other three bat
teries at the park. The opportunity
has been given the former. 1t remain:
to be seen whether or not they can play
fast enough ball to travel in the league

ed BY Pupils.

Charles E. King, teacher of the Wal
ahole School, brought one Of the adj
vanced classes TO the city yesterday
morning to see the sights.
By Encouragement they were taken
through the Hawaiian Gazette Com
pany's establishment, and the print
ing business explained to them in de-
tail.
The children were greatly interested
in the working of the typesetting ma
chimes and the difference between
hand and machine composition was
shown and explained to them.
On entering the pressroom their at
tention was concentrated on the large
Optimus press, which was turning out
some fine half-tone work. of which
they secured samples.
They We're then taken into the bind
cry and shown how books large and
small were turned out. Their intelli-
gent questions showed that they OBJ
tanned very good idea of what they
saw.
Each scholar was given n slug
from the linotype machine, with name
on it, which they will keep as a me-
mento of the trip.
