One of the Gamest of modern fights. From the times-dispatch, December 10th, 1905. No equal area of the American continent so drenched in blood. Sharpsburg or Antietam. Fifteenth Virginia, of Semmes' brigade, McLaws' division, at the crisis. In many a nook and cranny of Virginia, far from the madding crowd, is some old soldier, scarred with wounds, who without pay and without title, did deeds for his State and the Southern cause which, had he served a victorious people, would have crowned his name with honors, perpetuated his fame, and brought to him the emoluments with which fortune endows her favorites. Though such things came not to him, it has never soured his temper nor disturbed the serenity of his spirit.

Thirty-Second Virginia Infantry at Sharpsburg. From the Times-dispatch, September 30 1906 Graphic story of work done on one of the bloodiest Fields—Forty-five per cent Lost—Shot at from behind a stone Fence—Samples of personal courage. Editor Times—Dispatch: Sir,—On December 10, 1905, you published in the Confederate Column an acount of the part the 15th Virginia Regiment took in that awful battle of Sharpsburg on September 17, 1862. It was written by that noble and gallant gentleman, Colonel E. M. Morrison. The hope was then expressed that some soldier who was there would do for the 32nd Virginia Regiment what Colonel Morrison had done for the 15th Virginia. I have waited for nearly one year to see if some one more competent than I would respond, but so far I have seen no account of the 32nd Virginia, and the old regiment was there, and did her full duty, having lost 45 per cent. in killed and wounded.
