marched through solid walls of spec

Some, it is true. were forced to
drop from the Life of march, but
thousands, bending under the weight
of years, toiled through the streets,
held to their line of duty by a spirit
which carried them through Vicks-
burg, Chickamagua, Chattanooga,

Antietam, Cold Harbor, the Wilder
