in the family section in Hollywood. The bullet-ridden battleflag of the Crenshaw Battery, draped in mourning, was placed at the head of the grave as the members of his old company filed in, and their sorrowful countenances betokened the high esteem in which their old commander was held. Captain Crenshaw commanded the battery from its organization until October 1, 1862; Lieutenant James Ellett commanded until December 13, 1862, when he was killed; Lieut. A. B. Johnston commanded until November, 1863; Captain Thomas Ellett commanded until the surrender at Appomattox. Captain J. Hampden Chamberlayne commanded temporarily for about two months until he was captured, a few days before the battle of Gettysburg, June, 1863. The company participated in forty-eight hard-fought battles and a good many skirmishes from first to last. The morale of the Crenshaw Battery was as good on the evening of the 8th of April, 1865, when it fired its last shot at Grant's army, as it was three year

Sherman moved forward on the 3d of February. Fully informed by his scouts of the strength and positions of the enemy, he did not expect any very serious resistance on its part. The real obstacle he had to overcome was the impossibility of maintaining his communications with Vicksburg. Indeed, to maintain them, after the example of all the Federal armies which had until then penetrated the enemy's country, it would have been necessary to repair the Meridian Railroad and follow step

There was a door in each in the centre of the long side with fireplace opposite. The pitch roof was made of four pieces of shelter tent. January 1, 1864, Captain Hutchins was absent and sick, and Lieut. Hanson was in command. He had been transferred from the Danvers company and commissioned November, 1863. One sergeant, two corporals and sixteen privates were sick and absent. Corporal Champlin died in the hospital about this time.
