ARTILLERY BOYS
Summary OF the Work OF Famous
Company From Harpcr's Ferry
to Appomattox.
WAY OF GENERAL IM80DEN
Showed the Stuff That Was in
Them at the Battle OF
First Manassas.

5 Major A. w. CARRIER, who succeeded
Captain Balthis, us commander OF the
Stanton Artillery, has kindly made the
accompanying summary OF Its gallant
services in the Confederate army. The
very day that Virginia seeded it left
4 Staunton for Harpers Ferry, and from
that day to Appomattdx (whcre as a part
of Cutshaw's Battalion. it fought as in
fantry.) 1t was at the front Of war,
and made its mark by nnvarying ysteadi-
ness and efficiency. Captain John d. Inn
boden who subsequently became a gem
cral of cavalry. was Its first commander,
and both he and his men sgnallzed their
Eallantry at the First Battle of Manassas.
Those who have read General Long
streets book, have no doubt noticed how
q often he goes out of his way to make
q fling at some eX-Confedcrate officer
whose opinions were not pleasing to him.
He was on the right wing Of our army
at the First Battle Of Manassas, and
had no opportunity to see or TO judge
of the conduct of the soldiers who saved
the day on our left. He burdens his text
with n belittling observation about Cap
tain Imboden, whom he refers to rs being
stopped in the retreat by General Jack
son. Those who know the facts are
aware tnat no EXPERIMENTATION ana no OlllCct
better than did the Staunton Artillery
and its captain. Captain lmboden did not
retire his guns from their position near
the Robinson house until after he had
been ordered TO do so, and then only to
escape capture by masses Of the onpour-
ing enemy. He swiftly turned them into
a better position. and he was under the
immediate eye of General r. ]. Jackson.
That officer, who noted his fine handling
Of his gallant command. gives him the
highest appreciation and calls his conduct
''launtless''
