Book Description
Excerpt from The History of Battery a First Regiment Rhode Island Light Artillery in the War to Preserve the Union, 1861-1865 Comrades of Battery A: It affords me great pleasure to present to you a record of the service of our battery during the period we were battling for the sacred cause of the Union. Of all the light batteries Rhode Island sent to the field, none ever excelled the Second, or Battery A in efficiency, endurance, or the intelligence of its men. It was well said by an officer of the Second Army Corps that "Battery A will stay and fight without officers." It is not an easy task to thus record our services, and, without doubt, there will be many who will not agree with me in all the statements I have made. But we must remember there are no two persons who see alike. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Not illustrated. 1904 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER IV Fro.m Harper's Ferry To Fair Oaks N the 28th we crossed the Potomac on a pontoon hridge just above the abutments of the railroad bridge (that structure having been burned), and entered the town at the Government Armory, passing the engine house captured and occupied by John Brown on his memorable foray into Virginia, Oct. 16, 1859. The loopholes made in the building, which he used as a fort still remained. Going up the hill through the village towards Boliver Heights we were quartered in some brick buildings belonging to the Government, which were used for tenements for people who worked in the armory. We here beheld a very peculiar sight; every garden in the village was fenced with musket stocks, with butts up, crossed like an old-fashioned Virginia fence. It was a very odd fence but did not last long after the soldiers took possession of the place. We remained here until March 7th, having a good chance to look around. It was a grand and impressive view which greeted our vision in every direction whichever way we looked, either up the Shenandoah or Loudon Valley or down the Potomac River, the Maryland Heights or Loudon Heights. The writer of the "Life and Letters of John Brown" says: "Harper's Ferry was named for Robert Harper, an English millwright, who obtained a grant of it in 1748 from Lord Fairfax, the friend of Washington. The first survey of this tract was made by Washington, who is said to have selected the Ferry in 1794 as the site of a national armory. The scenery has been described by Jefferson in his 'Notes on Virginia, ' written shortly before the death of Robert Harper in 1782, presenting the view from Jefferson's rock, above the village. He said: "'You stand on a very high point of land; on your right comes up...
