ia Wheeler survived to tell the
story of the conflict after two
score years had softencd the re-
Prospect and former foes again united
to serve the common country. Like
General Nelson \. Miles. Wheeler
dates from 1861 He WAS Il West Point
soldier trained for the cavalry and as
q leader of SQuadrons won fame in the
west.
At Shiloh Wheeler made his debut as
leader. He had recruited regiment
for one of the Alabama brigndrs. and
the fortunes of the battle placed him
at the head of the brigade at the close
of the fight. After Il day of stubborn
resistance, giving ground step by step
and inch by inch. the southern army
withdrew behind the ridge ut Shiloh
church and began to march back to Cor
inth in the face of eXuting foes. With
his brigade Wheeler covered the first
stage of the retreat, making gallant
stand at the church around few can
non planted by the side of the Corinth
road, the single open route through the
swampy thicket. Showing himself a
soldier of energy and resource, he was
soon afterward placed at the head of a
corps of mounted men. What veteran

north, but has lively recOllcctiOns of the
wild rides and wilder raids of Wheel

Robert T.. Lees sudden rise to the
top as leader of armies in 1862 was a
surprise on both sides the line. He had
fought against Mcclellan in West Nir-
ginia in the early summer of 1851 and
retired without laurelS. He was not
at Bull Run and appeared to the army
to be on the shelf in Richmond as coun-
selor not fighter. Already his beard
was tingcd with gray, for he was fifty
five years old. On the 3lst of May. at
