EARLY SACRIFICES.
Two Men Killed in Vicinity of Great
Falls

It is believed that but few soldiers lost
their lives before the date when two of the
members Of the German battalion of Dis
trict troops-John Kicks and Martin OH
were killed at the Great Falls of the Po-
tomac The battalion, formed of the old
German Yeagers, then the Washington
Rifles, and the Turner Rifles, under Major
Gerhart, was sent up the Potomac with
other battalions of District troops to pre-
vent the enemy from crossing the river,
and the headquarters were at the falls.
While there were many important points
under observation, one of the most impor-
tant to be watched was ford where Kicks
was posted as the sentry at o'clock one
morning This was about a mile from the
camp, and when the relief approached two
hours later he was found lying dead on his
post with bullet in his head having it
was thought, been picked off by sharp
shooter on the Virginia side. The battalion
was at once aroused and skrmished the
locality and while Oil was on the line a
shot from the rebels brought him down
The bodies of the two men were brought
to the city and laid in their armory in what
was then known the Wigman building of
of the Republican, afterward the fremont
House, at Sd street and Virginia avenue
The two dead soldiers were coffined and
the funeral, at which Rev.. Mr. KilIum the
chaplain of the District troops, oficiatfd
was attended by vast concourse to Pros
pect Hill cemetery, where their bodies were
inferred.
1t has often BEEN sainb that these were the
first men killed by, the confederates.
