the fort that | think has not been in

thought the fort must be evacuated, so
three of the men crawled over to it at
IL O'Clock D. M. and found all gone but
two or three men and the rebel flag
One Of the men took down the flag, and
they crept back to the rifle pits. and
that 27th Wis. man put that flag in his
knapSack and brought il to his home at
Sheboygan. Wis. l do not think il was
