The Teutonic movement against the
Russians for the capture of Russian
Poland and Warsaw is again in full
swing. Although the conquest Of this
province is apparently foreshadowed.
the Germans will undoubtedly lose
heavily in the effort. and the victory
may well be equal to defeat. By the
end of summer the Germans may be
in possession Of Warsaw. and their
lines stretching north and south against
the Russian front. But the amount
they must pay will be appalling. Rus

Recalls War Times

Next Monday, June 21st, reminds
me that on June 21st, 1864, Battery
3, First Maryland Light Artillery,
better known as Shows Battery, re-
ceived its greatest disaster of the war.
We had campaigned from Martens
burg, Va, to Lynchburg, passing up
the Shenandoah Valley with 10000
men and with four field batteries of
artillery, We met defeat at New Mar
ket by Breckenridge troops, fell back
to Cedar Creek and General Siegel
was relieved of command and General
Hunter put in command. Then COM
menced Hunters raid up the Shenan-
doah Valley. 1t was Gen. Hunter who
destroyed the beautiful valley of Vir-
ginia, and made it untenable for the
Rebels. We were successful at Mt.
Hope, or Piedmont There We fought
and defeated the "Rebs" and killed
their Commanding General Jones. A
Confederate captain told me he was as
fine a man as the South had. On the
DIST of June the artillery had to fight
Earley's brigade of cavalry, known as
Jenkins Brigade. Shows Battery that
morning lost four pieces of artillery,
4 caissors, battery wagon and forge.
Also % men and ! lieutenant were
taken prisoners, and 90 horses We're
killed out of 112 When the fight was
over. we had but two pieces of artil-
lery and % horses left. The writer
was among the prisoners and went to
AnderSonville for six months, of which
we Will write later on.
