Written for the RECORD.
At our recent visit upon the famous
battlefield of Gettysburg and locating
the exact position our regiment occu-
pied, naturally our memory carries us
back to the war scenes which runs SIM
liar to these on the second days fight
ing:
Night had put an end to the terrible
scenes and both armies rested on their
arms, waiting anxiously for the dawning
of another day. The desperate fight
ing and indecislve results arising from
it were enough to convince US that
terrible would be the carnage before
the great battle would be decided. Two
armies whose combined strength num-
bered fully one fourth of a million men,
commanded by the best military men
of the age, had locked in deadly en-
brace and both would have to suffer
severely before the contest was over.
Only those who have been in like
situations can fully appreciate the feel
ings of a soldier on the night after an
indecisive battle. Many OF his COM
rades have fallen and he knows that
before the setting of another sun many
more would be added to the "bivouac
of the dead" He cannot avoid think
ing that the chances are many that he
too may be among the number, and
how lovingly he thinks of the dear ones
at home and hopes and prays that he
may meet them again.
have frequently heard men say
that the soldiers who fought for the
Union were prompted by selfish ends,
and that men never go to war from
patriotic motives. They enlisted for
the money, is a common expression
made use of by that kind of people.
No baser or more cowardly SANDER
could be invented against the dead,
who died to protect the lives and
property Of their slanderers.
Had the men who whipped the re-
bel army at Gettysburg been moved by
no other motive than the few paltry
dollars they received for their services,
the boast of the rebel General Toombs
that he would call the roll Of his slaves
on Bunker Hill would have become a
reality. will sight my own case iol

not OF an alluring nature, we received

on the dollar; this alone should be
proof enough that money was not the
real inducement, and that patriotism
alone was the reward we claimed at the
time. And now in concluding this
short sketch wish to say our govern.
ment has been very liberal to us old
veterans in the way of pensions, but
as we grow older we find this govern
ment pension is very insufficient to
meet our many wants, aud should be
increased to one dollar per day. The
very youngest of these veterans is now
speedily approaching the allotted time
of man, and soon the "taps," all lights
out will be sounded.
