Wlien they reached the summit of Little Round Top they did not have time to fix tlieir Imyonets, but rushed doul)le ([uick "front into line" on the right of the 2olh Me. , conniianded by Col. 57 chamberlain. Col. Chamberlain, with these reinforcements, charged and drove Law's men down to the valley below and maintained pos- session of Little Ronnd Top ever thereafter. That is the time we came within ten min- utes of losing Little Ronnd Top, the key of the field in front of Ronnd Top, beyond a d...oubt. In that movement Col. O'Rorke was killed. The balance of Weed's Brigade was ordered np to Little Ronnd Top. It was the troops of Weed's Brigade that aided in drag- ging the guns of Battery D, 5th U. S. , to the summit of Little Round Top by hand and by ropes. It must be remembered that at that time there were no roads around that great hill, it being utterly impossible to get guns there by horses ; but when they got the guns up the men could not use them. Devil's Den was then in possession of the enemy, and the sharpshooters were there in force and had range on Little Round Top and were picking our men off rapidlJ^ As fast as they went to their guns they were shot down.
