Civil War Artillery
First Regiment Light Artillery
A correspondent of the New York Herald wrote as follows: " Attached to Scribner's Brigade was the famous Loomis Battery, —that gallant gentleman no longer in command, but he had a worthy successor; and, though the battery no longer exists but to be turned against us, Loomis may feel proud that his battery and men expired in a blaze of glory, lieutenant Van Pelt, in command of the battery, in
dying at his guns, has given to the history of the war an incident which will form one of its brightest pages.
