Ho participated in the taking of Forts Henry , Donaldson , etc. , and at Shiloh was severely Wounded In the arm , and was sent to a hospital in OhlQ. Before ho fairly recovered ho hast ened back to his regiment , but circumstances induced him to resign and go back to his na tive place ( Troy , N.

Colonel McConlho's last words wore : "Close upon the colors , men 1" His loss was sincerely re gretted , not more sp to his numerous friends t liome , to whom ho was affectionately en deared by the i > ossesslon of great social powers , than among the ofllccrs and men of the regiment. Ho had reached with the regi ment the line of intrenchments held by the enemy , and had stepped upon the embank ment when ho was shot , and instantly ex pired. The color bearer had been wounded : Lieutenant Colonel Aldcn seized the standard nml planted it one Of the very Hi st on the rebel works , when he , too , fell with n wound that happily was not mortal.
