ottumwa Veteran Describes the Civil
War Conflict in Mississippi Town,
Memories Of Which Are Brought
Back on Anniversary Day

With his thoughts going back to the
thrilling events of the day, forty-four
years ago, j. w. Henry, 412 West Sec
ond street, became reminiscent yester-
day and told of the battle of Corinth
in which his regiment, Company G.,
18th Iowa Infantry, took part.
The white haired veteran with his
significant bronze button, sat quietly
IN his hcme, and gazing out into the
clear October day lived again the
scenes enacted on the Mississippi bat
tlefield. AS the memories drifted clear
ly back, the intervening forty-four
years We're as though they had never
been. He spoke of the battle as though
1t had been but yesterday
Story of Battle.
Our regiment was sent out to the
Chattahocchee river to meet Price and
Van Dorm, who We're advancing on
Cornith," said Mr.. Henry. .'and we
were beaten and driven back with con-
siderable loss. The next morning they
We're close and commenced cannonad.
Ing us. The timber was all cut down
for about half mile outside of our
fortincations and we saw the rebels
advancing across the open space led
by General Rogers, riding on a white
horse.
Rider Of White Horse Killed.
Rogers led them to within fifty
yards Of us when he and his white
horse were both killed. His men were
SO slaughtered that there were only
a few left and these surrendered. We
then started after the main force OF
the enemy, capturing all of their artil
lery and provision wagons, together
with the ambulance containing the
coat Of General Price. The fugitives
forded the river, making their escape
The battle virtually ended the fighting
in that locality.
Take Rebel Prisoners.
AFTER we had repulsed the enemy
my regiment was kept behind breast
works to hold the fort while the others
were in pursuit of the fleeing rebels
One of my companions and myself
went out to where we had a fight the
day before to look after some of oul
killed companions, and ran across foul
rebels whom We took prisoners and
brought to camp. Taking them to the
coloneIs headquarters expecting te
get great praise, he told us to turn the
prisoners over to the adjutant and re
port back to him for further instruc
tons. When we did so he gave III
such 2 lecture as shall never forge
in regard to going out without orders
as we might have been killed or take1
prisoners ourselves"
