He then received the wound which caused his death. It was oc casioned by a six-pound cannon shot, which struck the middle of his right thigh, passed through it, and through the shoulders of his 176 MAJOR RINGGOLD. horse, and came out through the left thigh. Men and officers came to his assistance, but he waved them away, exclaiming, " Don't stay with me ; you have work to do go ahead. " He was immediately carried from the field under the direction of Dr. Byrne, who dressed his wounds. Although ...nearly all the an terior muscles were torn from each thigh, yet no bones were broken nor any important artery divided. His pain was trifling, and up to the time of his death, he conversed cheerfully with his attendants upon the incidents of the battle. He steadily grew worse, however, until one o'clock on the morning of the 10th, when he expired. His burial took place on the following day. Major Ringgold was formed by nature to be popular. No man possessed more the affection and obedience of the soldiers, and no one was ever more sincerely lamented.
