wUKA, Mississippi, fought Sept 10,
III 1862. was a small affair for the
armies engaged, but a mammoth
one for the little handful of Ohio
cannoneers who bore the brunt of it..
Grant was then at Corinth, just hold
ing on, as he had been all summer.
1.-The main Confederate and Federal ar
mics of the west were then playing
hide and seek in Tennessee, the Con-
lfederates under Bragg aiming north
lward for Kentucky.
N Grants nearest foe was the willy
Sterling Price. Price had crossed his
Missouri army over the Mississippi
ipurposely to keep up bluster around
Corinth and prevent Grant from send
ing troops to Tennessee and Kentucky
to help General Buell., who was oppos-
ing Bragg's invasion. In September
Price was at Tupelo, south of Corinth,
on the railroad. He could easily dash
on Corinth If he wanted to- but instead
Of doing so marched northeast and
was debating the question of lodging
by Grant and carrying his troops to
Bragg in Tennessee. At the last mo-
ment he decided to attack Grant at
Corinth and went into camp at Iuka,
thirty miles east of that point, to wait
for General Van Dorns column to join
his.
While Price was waiting for Van
Dorm to come Grant decided to dispose
of his audacious enemy. He sent out
two divisions to attack Iuka from the
south and a third division to attack
from the west. 1t was plan for
large battle, but Price didn't wait to
see the affair through. One brigade of
Grants did about all of the fighting on
the Federal side, and one battery Of
six guns, the Eleventh Ohio, stood by
the brigade better than whole divi-
sion of supports could have done.
There wasn't room for masses of in
fantry, but six guns don't need much
space for spreading out.
Toward the close of Sept. 10 General
Sanborn's Federal brigade was march
ing toward Iuka by the south road,
feeling the way in anticipation of strik-
ing a Confederate outpost. The route
lay through heavy strip Of woodland
that separated two wide clearings held
by the enemy, and upon entering the
pass Sanborn's column drew the fire
of Confederate artillery and infantry.
The place was a capital one to lay an
ambush, and Sanborn would have fall
en- into a trap had he been as reckless
as some of the British brigadiers in
South Africa, but instead of rushing
fblindly on he halted the line.
Now, the Confederates had chosen
the place for deadly blow to the Fed
erals and rushed at Sanborn's column,
expecting to crush it before it could
form for battle. The moment of halt

The shortest sermon on record was
preached at Atlantic, Mich, on a re-
cent Sunday. The pastor had been re
quested to make his discourse brief on
account Of the hot weather, so he an
nounced as his text Luke xvi, "a, "And
he cried and said, Father Abraham,
have mercy on me and send Lazarus,
that he may dip the tip Of his finger In
water and cool my tongue, for l am

was as follows: Three persons-Abra-

ing the Eleventh Ohio guns wheeled
from the narrow road into the woods
and unlimbered on a slight elevation
at the edge of the timber. The place
was an ideal one if only the foe was
daring enough to come on. And the
foe did come. The cannon could sweep
the roadway in front, also the edges
of the clearings, which the Confeder
ates must cross to get in on either flank
of the battery.
On each flank of the battery and in
the rear Sanborn posted his infantry
regiments. All this preparation was
done under a heavy fire of shell and
bullets, and the line was ready not
moment too soon. Charging three col
umns Deep the Confederates rushed
for the crest where the battery stood.
The guns opened with canister, and the
infantry alongside gave the daring as
sailants volley after volley OF bullets.
The first charge was so easily re-
pulsed that no doubt the men who had
4 hand in it thought they could easily
repel a second and even a third with
only half an effort. The battery was
still intact, its fighting force of fifty
four officers and men quite unframed
and enough ammunition on hand to
double charge the guns for the next
encounter.
Although other Federal guns had
got into position, the Confederates
were bent upon silencing those of the
