Seeing his exposed and perilous situation his staff implored him to retire, but he heeded them not. At another, when the death-sped iron hailed around him, he coolly remarked, "these balls are becoming excited. " Again : when the 2d Kentucky regiment, which had been ordered to support a hard-pressed column, was obliged to cross a ravine, and in avoiding the gullies, presented at a distance all the appearance of confusion and disorder, he cried out, in the fullness of grief, "that will not do, t...hat is not the way for Kentuchians to behave!" But in a few moments they had crossed the rugged places and were ascending the slope of the valley with the measured tread of war-worn veterans. On they moved until they reached the crest of the hill, where they met the enemy and delivered their fire with such deadly aim that he was soon in precipitate retreat. As they emerged from the valley his countenance gradually relaxed its bitterness of expression, and his feelings were wrought higher and higher as they pushed along to the work of death.
