Colonel Daniel Alexander Ledbetter was born near Pendleton, S. C., in what was then Pickens district, in July, 1828, the son of Abner and Sarah (Calhoun) Ledbetter. His father died in 1830 and three years later his mother was married to Col. John C. Miller, a farmer of the same district. Young Ledbetter grew up on Colonel Miller's farm, much of the business of which was managed by him while he was yet a boy. His education was limited, the greater part of it being obtained in the schools at Colonel Miller's farm, much of the business of which was managed by him while he was yet a boy. His education was limited, the greater part of it being obtained in the schools at old Pendleton. He served an apprenticeship as a millwright under Col. M. R. Hunnicutt, became a master mechanic and acquired considerable property in the practice of his craft. His honesty and decision of character made him a favorite with every one who knew him. When quite a young man he was elected captain of militia, then major and later colonel. He was six feet four inches in height, of fine figure, and was possessed of a stentorian voice, which could easily be heard amid the din of battl

at 4 P. M., a large force of the enemy's cavalry was observed endeavoring to gain our rear. I was ordered with the regiment to form line obliquely to the rear, faced toward them. As soon as formed, and while awaiting expected cavalry charge, the enemy from a hill up the river (one and a half miles farther on) opened with artillery, doing no damage and creating no panic in my command, when I moved off, as ordered by Colonel Barrett, in retreat, furnishing 140 men for skirmishers, under Captains Miller and Coffin and Lieutenants Foster and Mead. They kept the enemy at a respectful distance at all times and did their duty in the best possible manner. Some temporary confusion was created by a portion of the 34th Indiana breaking through my regiment at double quick while I was marching in quick time, but order was immediately restored. The retreat was conducted by the right flank, for the reason that the nearest body of the enemy, 250 strong, with two pieces of artillery, were evident
