Civil War Artillery
First Regiment Light Artillery
The loss of these guns, so long their every day companion, and their defenders at Perryville, Stone River, and Chickamauga, was a source of irredeemable sorrow, and they clung to the saved one like a mother to a saved child, when all but that one had perished in the storm of the angry sea.
But they were not doomed to mourn always; time was passing, and with it was to come their relief. Towards evening of the first day's battle one of the guns was delivered them with three caissons, with one disabled limber.
