GETTYSBURG HERO
PASSES AWAY
OFFICER Sites ANSWERS
LAST ROLL CALL
Friends Repeat Story Of Civil War
Veterans Prominent Part in
One of Greatest Battles
Ever Fought

Police Officer Samuel B. Sites, a
veteran of fifteen years standing in
the police department died at 12:45
avenue.
Officer Sites, who has been turnkey
at the police station for three years,
was obliged to take sick leave the early
part of last week. He was threatened
with pneumonia at the time but his
physician, DR.. A. j. Scholl, said last
night that his patient was suffering
from liver trouble and a complication
of other diseases.
Besides having a successful local rec
ord as a police officer. Sites played
a heroic part as sergeant in the famous
First Minnesota regiment, during
the civil war, which, history says, saved
The battle of Gettysburg for the union
forces.
Officer Sites was appointed a police
man September 10, 1890, and was as
signed as driver of the patrol wagon.
In February 1903 he was appointed
turnkey at the city Jail.
At his bedside last night were his
wife, trained nurse and his brother
in-law. Judge b. N Smith of the SUI
perior court.
Officer Sites was sergeant of Com
pany e of the First Minnesota. The
thrilling incident in which he played
a heroic part occurred on July 2. 1868,
when the Unionists and Confederates
were struggling in the death grapple on
the field of Gettysburg.
Gen. Winfield S, Hancock said of the
gallant stand made by the regiment.
"There is no more gallant deed in his
tory. l was glad to find such a body
of men at hand willing to make the
terrible sacrifice that the occasion de-
handed I ordered those men in because
/ saw that 1 must gain five minutes
time. Reinforcements were coming on
the run, but / knew that before they
could reach the threatened point the
Confederates, unless checked, would
seize the position, would have ordered
that regiment in if / had known that
every man would be killed. 1t had to
be DONE"
1t happened during a wild charge of
the Confederates.
Northern gunners fled from their
posts and the First Minnesota, 260
strong, was left to meet a charge OF
5000 men.
Advancing upon their foes, the heroic
regiment poured In a whitening rifle
fire and held an important position I'M
til relieved. There were AZ survivors
OF that gallant regiment or these,
Officer Sites was one.
During the battle Stiles was wounded
IN the arm and was sent to the hospi-
tai, but recovered IN time to participate
IN other battles before the war closed.
He was born in St. Clair county, Ill.,,
about 70 years ago, and went with his
parents to Minneapolis, Mimi, in 1856.
He was volunteer In the First Min
Los Angeles herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1900-1911, 1906-02-26

nesota regiment April 49, 1861, and he
was honorably discharged in 1853.
There are few survivors of that ia
nous regiment which has been herald
ed in history.
b At the police station officer Sites has
an unblemished record covering fifteen
years.
He has always done his work faith
fully and while modest and unassum-
ing, has made many friends both in and
out of the department.
Besides the members of the police de-
partment, who will attend the funeral,
Grand army men will help pay last
tribute to their comrade, who bore him
self so gallantly in the Civil War;
Deceased leaves a widow, but no chill
dren.
