was formed, which was composed as

The above was the formation of the
division at the battle Of Fredericksburg,
where it's losses were 10 killed, 90

| most of the time in reserve.
At Charlottesville the First Brigade
was commanded by COL Emlen Frank

the losses Of the division were III kill

In the First Brigade was the 1920

and en- route home was detained in
Washington to do escort duty at Gen.
Whipple's funeral.
After Charlottesville the Third Di-
vision was broken up, the regiments
and batteries being distributed between
the First and Second Divisions of the

The Third Division, attached to the

question: Why did not Billy Sherman
leave the Fourteenth and Fourth Corps

once. and could do it again.

what Influenced Gen. Sherman to make
up as he did the force he gave Thomas
to head off Hood with. Sherman pick
ed out the best-equipped and strongest
corps that he had to accompany him on
the march to the sea, and at first only
intended to let Gen. Thomas gather up
the troops in the rear and add to them
such reinforcements as might be sent

from Dillon. Mont. He would also like
to hear from comrades OF the 18th

brigade in Ed. Hatch's Division, who
were in front of Hood from Shoal
Creek to Nashville in 1864. Hatch
used to say" adds Comrade Rich. that
the 18th Mo. and the 18th Tenn. were
the noisiest regiments he ever had. But
1t wasn't all noise. We would shoot
when we were crowded. A few OF US
veterans came out TO this country art
the close of the war and helped con-
quer the Indians, the grizzlies the sage
brush and cactus. Some Of US are still
fighting, but it is mostly talk now.
