Sam Gordon announces if elect

utterly incomprehensible. So are such
awful situations, and it is useless to
dwell on them.
An assault was Immediately ordered
and the Sixth corps was successful,
capturing most of the lines of defense
after fearful loss. This was the first
day. Heavy reinforcements came to
the enemy and the second and third
day were those of defeat, with all that
defeat implies.
A young captain, badly wounded,
wearing the uniform of the First cav
airy, was brought in from the front,
and lingering in mortal agony, died
June 3. His was the experience of the
many who fell that day. He had served
six years as an officer, beginning as
adjutant in that regiment, and had
fought in many battles in rapid sue
cession in the army of the Potomac.
The battle was one of the bloodiest of
the war. Both armies were worn out
with marching and fighting, sullen,
hungry and reckless. Military critics
agree that it was a needless battle, and
in three days 1871 of the assaulting
force were killed or wounded. At times
the lines were so near to each other
that the wounded could not be rescued
and died or were shot to death where
they lay. Military men do not like to
show a flag of truce, for 1t is taken as
an admission of defeat, so hundreds
fingered through the hours of that time
until the last one died. At night few
were rescued by weary comrades who
dug shallow trenches to where they
lay and crept back with them. One

her history, her traditions and her

battles, serving faithfully even unto

A beautiful and prosperous city has
arisen since the remains of the gallant
hero and forgotten patriot were laid to
rest. Nearly half a century has passed
into the gerat flood of eternity. The
little city of the dead has been en-
croached upon by the living. His lonely
grave stands in mute protest, unhon-
ored, uncared for and unknown. 1t
seems a pathetic plea in behalf of
forgotten captain, and almost a re-
proach to record Sic transit gloria.
