this morning about the monuments
and markers that dot the field where
thousands of the soldiers of the blue
and the gray fought and fell fifty
years ago today in the battle of An
tietam. The battle was one of the
most terrible of the civil war. The
Union forces were in command of
General Mcclellan and the Confed-
crates were led by General Lee, who
had been joined the previous day by
'Stonewall' Jackson About 100, 1000
men were engaged, and the conflict
ragged with great fury from daylight
until dark. The Federals were re-
neatedly repulsed, but at night both
armies held the same positions as in
the morning. In the eleven hours
fighting about 5000 of the North
ern Army and 10000 of the Confed-
crate Army fell, in addition to many
thousands which died after the battle.
