THE 2GTH n. C.
A History of This Noted Regiment.

More interest is felt by the veterans
of the Army of the Potomac in the 26th
N. C. than in any other regiment in the
Confederate service, from the fact of
this regiments uneXampled losses in
the battle of Gettysburg. The regi-
ment was raised in the interior of
North Carolina in July and August,
1861, and was made up of the descend
ants of the Scotch-Irisn Presbyterians.
who had sigrated to this country at
the time of the religious prosecutions in
England The roster of the regiment
shows that officers and men nearly all
bore weIl-known Scotch-Irish names.
The regiment entered the battle sof Get
tysburg with SS5 present for duty, and
allowing 10 per cent for extra duty and
details this left about 500 muskets. OF
this number 708 were killed, wounded
and missing, and "a out of the SO of
the officers were killed or wounded. Co.
f of the regiment stands alone among
all the companies in either army for
the number of casualties. 1t entered
the battle with three officers and IS
enlisted men, of whom every one was
killed or wounded during the fight. OF
these 10 were actually killed. IL NOR

has been published in handsome
pamphlet by George c. Underwood, As
sistant Surgeon, at Goldsboro, N. G. 1t
is illustrated with fine half-tone pic
lures of many of the officers of the regi-
ment and also one of Comrade Charles
H. Mcconnell. of Chicago. who was the
Color-Sergeant of the 24th Mich, and
desperately wounded Col. Lane, the
commander of the 26th N. c. The book

THE FOURTH CORPS.
1t Really Won the Battle Of Mission
Ridge

Capt. John Barnes, 23d KY, Cincin-
natl, O., is intensely indignant at what
he considers John w. Stevens's slander
on the troops afterward forming the
Fourth Corps. Serg't Stevens said that
at Chickamauga 'the only troops with
Gen. Thomas after the terrible disaster
on the goth day was the Fourteenth
Corps" Capt. Barnes says there were
less of the Fourteenth Corps present
with Thomas at that time than of the
Fourth Corps. Sheridan's Division of
the Fourteenth Corps was driven off
the field, leaving only two divisions OF
the corps with Thomas while all of the
divisions of the Fourteenth Corps were
with that grand old soldier in the thick
est of the fight Sers't Stevens gives
the wonderful news that the Fourteenth
Corps never was whipped. but at Stone
River something looking very much
like a whipping occurred. The division
of Crittenden's Corps, placed on the
edge of the cotton field facing the Ce-
dars, heard distant firing, evidently on
McCook's front, increasing in volume
as 1t advanced from right to left, scat
tering and driving McCook's Corps off
the field Then the divisions of the
Fourteenth Corps, ending with Rous-
seau's Division, were driven back with
the Regular Brigade flying before the
enemy. So far as the Fourteenth corps
and McCook's Corps were concerned
the battle was lost, but lion stood in
the path OF the enemy. 1t was Pal
mer's Division If Crittenden's Corps.
which repulsed every attack, and finally
forced the enemy to retreat to the
Cedars. The Fourth Corps won the
| battle after the other corps had been
driven back at Mission Ridge. Hun
dreds of our boys fell under the awful
shower of shot before the first line
was cleared, but the Fourth Corps
pushed on to the crest and with fixed
bayonets drove the enemy off. The
battle of Mission Ridge was fought
by Woods and Sherman's Divisions.

been scouting between the two armies

along the slope, lay the blue lines of

while behind were the hilltops, all
frowning with wide-mouthed cannon

noise like the roar of thousand cat

was a hush. The noise died away. The
winds came creeping back from the

revealed a strange sight. The fields
were carpeted, beautiful carpet,
