G. X. Mitchell with the boys. He led the regiment to drive the rebel Gen. Forrest out of Memphis, Tenn.

As we marched down into a cotton field to support a battery we were comma-nded to lie down, which we did in a hurry, as the rebel bullets were whistling over us and the shells' were tearing up the ground ell around us.

John Barloyoorn must be buried so deep that a resurrection trumpet blast can never reach him. Everlasting sleep be thine, oh thou enemy of mankind! I think it was 6 or 7 years ago the bishop said there are two things the physician ought to do; prevent mental and bodily ailments and try to cure them.
