The Sixth Corps Mt Cedar Creek.

Editor National Tribune: 1 see in the
article published in the Tribune THE
Wilderness Campaign that the YER
mont Brigade did all the fighting done
by the Sixth Corps at the battle OF
Cedar Creek, and held the rebel army
in check till Sheridan's arrival. They
were all right and pretty good troops,
but l am wondering where the balance
of the Sixth Corps was and what they
were doing. I belonged to the Second
Brigade, Third Division of the Sixth
Corps. and | have "a very vivid remem-
brance of the events of that morning,
when before light the long roll beat
and we packed up our tents and got
into line while rebel bullets began fly
ing around us pretty sharp. After a
few minutes, during which several were
killed and wounded, we had orders to
fall back and we retreated slowly,
fighting all the way for about two miles,
where we halted, and the rebels came
up, but, finding we had the position,
they stopped. In a very short time we
heard cheers and shouting, and soon
saw Sheridan coming on his big black
horse shouting, Keep cool. boys: Wen
give 'em hell in a few minutes: and
very soon we were ordered to charge.
The rebels made two or three sharp
fights, but finally ran, and we chased
them almost to Cedar Greek; then went
back to our old camping ground of the
night before, got some grub. and went
to bed-Fraaklin Plank, Co. G, 9th

I'd Mass. and 9th Ind. There was nc
such formation. Ruger's map gives
the formation as it existed, and as ex-
the above regiments into this position
is mystery. But that is the position
on the official map, and is probably
now regarded as authentic history.
But the most astonishing feature OF
this whole affair is saved for the last
Observe the dotted lines at 1. They
according to Col. Batchelder's map
represent the I'd and 9th on the
charge, the I'd in the edge of the
woods, and the eth short distance
in the rear the eds right overlapped
by the 27th's left. The 27th's right
appears to be about 100 feet from the
enemy's line occupied by Smiths Bri-
gade. Observe, also, that these two
regiments are not headed for the ene-
my's line, but for the woods. OF course
the 9th and I'd are confronted by
imaginary Confederate regiments. The
fact is that neither the I'd nor the 9th
could have possibly occupied these po-
sitions, and, furthermore, were so far
apart that very few, if any. men OF
either regiment knew anything of the
whereabouts of the other.-John r

Semi Centennial of the Firing of the
First Shot in the Civil War.

Capt. Justin E. Brown, of Clinton
Me-. who with his wife is spending the
Winter with his daughter in Beverly
Mass, writes the Tribune that Jan. 9,
1911, is the semi-centennial of the firing
of the first shot in the civil war, and
that he was closely connected with
events leading up to this particular one
and has a distinct recollection Of the
affair. He also writes that he was an
active participant in the events of the
day in which the Last shot in the wal
was fired, which, according to some
authorities, was in connection with the
running past New Orleans of the Con-
federate ram William H. Webb. OF
which event he will in the near future
give his connection with and also the
official date.

The following is an extract from Col
Colgrove's report:
The eth Ind having obliqued to
the right, had nearly double the dis
lance to traverse to gain the position
of the enemy, but on it went. AT every
volley of the enemy gaps were being cut
thru its ranks. it became evident to
me that scarcely man could live to
gain the position of the enemy. l or
dered the regiment to fall back behind
the breastworkS, which it did. The
I'd Mass. was also overpowered by num-
bers and had to fall back"

Editor National Tribune: In The Ma
tional Tribune. in an article referring
TO the battle on the right at Culp's
Hill. on the morning of July 8, 1868,
there appeared this statement:
1.-The I'd Mass and 9th Ind. were
ordered forward and made the most
gallant advance across the open space
under a heavy fire of the enemy. The
27th Ind. found the attempt impoS-
sible, and halted about half way. but
the I'd Mass gallantly drove Its as
sault directly up to the enemy's po-
sition, gaining the woods on the OPP
posite side
This statement is erroneous. Once
before 1 attempted to answer a state
ment substantially like the foregoing,
depending on memory alone; but men,
cry is not always reliable, SO this time
I rely entirely on the records The
statement quoted above would lead one
10 infer that the I'd Mass. and 9th
Ind. charged in line together under
exactly the same circumstances.

had received its order and was moving
forward before the 27th received the
order to advance. What occurred then
is described by Brown:
But before the 27th could obey the
order to charge it was first necessary
for it to change front, movement
which, under the circumstances, re-
quired considerable time. This is a
point often overlooked or forgotten in
considering the tremendous events of
this morning. The 9th was still &C.
cupying the position which the Sd Wis.
had occupied the day before, which
faced in direction almost at a right
angle to the line of the charge. More
over, the Sd n. j. being in the angle
between the 9th and the I'd Mass. it
was necessary for it to move in order
to give the 27th an unobstructed pas
sage. The order was that the 2Ith
should about-face and make a half
wheel in battalion formation, While the

The Night Before Lees Surrender.

In Harper's for February. Maj. A. R
II. Ransom gives an interesting account
of the scene at Gen. Lees headquarters
the night before the surrender when
he was still determined to strike one
more blow
when I arrived at headquarters,
Gen. Lee was in a tent, sitting with
Gen. Longstreet on some bundles of rye
straw (the ground being wet from the
rain), at the upper side of the tent,
with one candle for light 1 made
my report, and the General told me
to wait, as he wished to see me. He
asked me if 1 had had anything to eat,
and I told him no. He said he was
sorry he had nothing to offer me. He
gave me a bundle of straw and told me
to sit near the door. 1t had been rain
ing all afternoon. and l was quite wet.

thru the bride rein of my mare stand

bundle of straw, was soon asleep.

ing up, saw the Colonel l had left in
charge Of the troops at the bridge
standing in the tent. He reported that
the rations had not arrived, and the
starving and discouraged troops had all
deserted in the darkness, leaving their
arms in the trenches. Gen. Lee heard
him to the end of this account, and
then with a wave of his hand dismissed
him. Turning to Gen. Longstreet. he
said: This is very bad. That man is
whipped. 1t is the first time I have
seen one of my officers who had been
whipped. 1t is very bad The CONVEX
sation between the Generals was then
resumed in low tones. and again fell
asleep. L must have slept for some
length of time, when I was awakened
by Gen. Lees voice, speaking in loud

from him. He was saying: Gen. Long
street, will strike that man blow in
the morning.. Gen. Lee sometimes
spoke of Gen. Grant as that man and
of the Federal army as those people
Gen. Longstreet replied in low tones,
giving the strength and condition of
his command, and the strength and po-
sition of the~enemy, and concluded by
saying: But you have only to give me
the order and the attack will be made

Quick Action Prescription
Cures Colds in a Day

The best and quickest prescription
known to medical science for colds and
coughs is as follows: Get two ounces
of Glycerine and half an ounce of Con-
centrated Pine Compound. Then get
half pint of good whisky and put
the other two ingredients into it. Shake
It well. Take one to two teaspoonfuls
after each meal and at bedtime.
Smaller doses to children according to
age" Be sure to get only the genuine
(GlObe) Concentrated Pine. Each half
ounce bottle comes in a tin screw-top
sealed case Any druggist has it on
hand or will quickly get it from his
wholesale house Anyone can mix this
at home. There are many cheaper
preparations of large quantity, but it
