He wrote a letter once to Mr. Carter,

You see Mr. (.‘nrtor’e wile hm! been Con-

men, only sixty were left. You can
judge from that of what tho fighting
was at Churchill’s bridge. When they
called the roll in camp out. dny, Conky'
Stiles wasn't there.
Had we left him dead at the bridge, or
war he wounded, dying the more nwiul
