To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In- deed, he won the praise and good-will of every officer with whom he associated. An attack of James River fever sent him home, and he was not able to return to duty till next year, when he was appointed Cliief of Artillery to the Second Division of the Sixth Corps, and served as such, with his usual reckless gallantrj', on the Fredericksburg Heights, at the battle of Chancellorsville. At the time he was seriously ill, and the exertions he under- went at the battle proved his ruin. From that ...time forth — in comparison with the past and its goodly promise, his histor3' is almost a blank. A few references to him occur in letters written by his aunt, and two officers whose home was near his own. The former seems to have loved him most dearlj-, and to have been especially proud of him in those brilliant days when he served on the staff of Kearny. Both she and Kearn^^ himself remark on the wonderful improvement in the shy, distant, reticent 12 lad, by his sudden transition to active life.
