Tic uiIderncss CAMPAIGN.

Editor National Tribune: have been
greatly interested in your account of
the battles Of the Wilde erness. i was in
all THE battles Of that campaign, COM
,iienciug with May 5, 1864, when my
eEiEneut, the 10th Ohio, made an at
tack on our right. Our loss was ex-
tremely heavy. Gen. J. Warren Keifer,
in command, received a wound in his
left arm, disabling him for service for
several months. l was in all the fight
ing, day and night, until the battle of
Spotsylvania, and then participated in
the skirmishes down to Cold Harbor
was in the battle June 1, 1864, and
on the morning of June received a
wound which resulted in thesloss Of my
left arm near the shoulder joint. I
nave no complaint. to offer! / would
much prefer my present condition than
to have both arms and noeIhave given
my services to the countryn when she
needed them. / cannot agree with you
in all the details Of that terrible con-
fiict. Our position in fhe battle was on
the extreme right. The position of the
Sixth Corps at Cold Harbor was on the
extreme right of our line but we were
shifted farther to the left before the
lighting began, and the Eighteenth
Corps came up from Bermuda Hundred
to rake the position occupied by the
sixth on our arrivalzthere, which placed
tie Eighteenth on the extreple right of
our line.-Ncah Thomas. London, o.

RecoiIections of Seven Pines.

John B. Bell. Pittsburg, Pa, writes
to H. d. Kelley, Scranton, Kan, his
memories of the battle of Seven Pines
He thinks this is the proper name, as
most of the fighting was nearer Seven
Pines than Fair Oaks He confirms
What Comrade Kelley has said in The
National Tribune, and goes On to give
his personal reminiscences-On May
81, 1852, L was a private in Co. A, S5th
Pa, and was standing as quarter guard
near Gen. Casey's, and a conversa ton
took place between the Generals which
I did not hear or understand. / did
not then know Gen Couch, but have
no doubt now but that il was Gen.
Couch. Gen. Casey was writing in his
tent at the time. Ny recollection l.;
that the two shots had been fired before
Gen. Couch came to Cen. CaaCy'S tent.
All the S5th regiment that were fit for
duty were on fatigue duty, and had
their arms with them. Only those that
We're excused from duty were in camp,
and they were quite numerous. I sup
pose ii was the ss.I.c with the other
regiments OF the divisions, and I think
II vas the excused men that came pour
ing down the road, some without Euns.
and not the men that were at The front

Casey's tent was not much over a
fourth Of a mile in front of Coucf's

ceiVe the attack. / write this 10 you by

tatfon of the situation. ". II. d. Con-
rade, CT Co. G, 1lth Me-, puts Gen
Couch's Division one mile in the rear
of Gen. Casey's headquarters. Certain
ly he has a poor recollection of dis
tances. My diary places Gen. Casey's
camp half mile from Seven Pines to
the left of the Williamsburg road. Com
rade Booth, of co. II. 1Deth n. Y, Is
correct about Gen. Casey's headquar-
ters being in advance of the camp, yery
near the woods in which our pickets
were. j would say not over half plile
from the headquarters. / think the
location of the camp Of his division
was very unfortunate, as II was too near
the picket line. The left flank of Gen
Casey's Division was not protected. Or
the night of May 26 / stood picket or
the extreme left part, and there was
no connection with any other pickets
and the enemy could have come within
short distance of the line without
being observed. I had thought of writ
ing this to The National Tribune, but
concluded to send it to you direct"

at 2:30, when the afternoon exercises
began. After a prayer by DR.. George
b. Stewart and selection by the male

by Attorney VIM. S, Elder, of Auburn.
Then came the reaaiig Of letters from
the absent comrades, one of the most
interesting features of the program.
Rev. Matt. Gaffney. of Williamson, and
