The Coo In The Flue It wasn’t an owl, nor a “hant” in the chimney at the Library Annex Tuesday morning. It was a brace of pigeons cooing comfortably under the protective concrete slab capping the brick chimney, the open flue act- ing like a sounding board. Don ‘Weidner erected a tall ladder and apprehended the culpits. “Cut the coo in the flue, shoo,” he advised, with a flap of his hand. | The pigeons took off. “Lawrenceburg is still trying to maintain its precarious identity as a typical American city. Every inow and then you can buy some- | thing that wasn’t made in Japan.” hy 2 IT ALL ADDS UP... the day of withdrawel . . . ea there's no loss of interest on mone Interest is earned on every dollar // withdrawn during quarter, rom the day of deposit te savings account balances for $5 to $100,000 . . . provided the eccount remains open to the end © of the quarter.

We were in Noxen a few days but were unable to see you, so will try again on our next trip East. Both of my. grandfathers were in the Civil War and if you can find anything concerning their rec- ords, I would be glad to have it. Harry Osborn was a Sergeant in Company K, 106th Pennsylvania Volunteers. This is taken from the stone in Dimmock, Susquehanna County, Cemetery. On the Pennsyl- vania Monument at Gettysburg his name seems to be Henry Osborn. I have been told that he enlisted while on a hunting trip in western Pennsylvania. The other is Miles F. Newberry, Company F, 53rd Pennsylvania In- fantry as taken from the monument in Beaumont Cemetery. Yours very truly Harry Osborn Dear Harry: Both of your grandfathers were in one of the toughest fighting units in the Civil War—The Second Corps commanded by ja great Penn- sylvanian, Mayor General Winfield Norristown, Pa., and Brig. General John Gibbon, another favorite. the Army of the Potomac. One of seven Federal Corps at Gettysburg, the Second was com- posed of 13,000 men divided into three Divisions. The [First Division made up of four Brigades, was com- manded by Brig. Gen. John ‘C. Cald- well. Your grandfather Miles F. New- berry, served with Company F, 53rd Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, in the Fourth Brigade commanded by Col. John R. Brooke. Commander of the 53rd Regiment was Lieut. Col. Richards ‘McMichael. Other regi- ments fighting beside youf grand- father in the Fourth Brigade were 27th Connecticut; 2nd Delaware; 64th. New York and 145 Pennsyl- vania. The 53rd lost eleven enlisted men; 11 officers and 56 enlisted men wounded and 6 enlisted men capt- ured or missing at Gettysburg. The Second Corps was not en- gaged in the first days fighting on July 1st at Gettysburg, but was encamped about two miles from the field that night at 10. The following day it arrived on the field at 7 a.m. and went into position on Cemetery Ridge about one mile north of Lit- tle Round Top, where there was little action until about 4 p.m., when the Fourth Brigade was ordered to the assistance of General Dan Sick- le’s Third Corps, going into: battle line at the edge of the wheat field at the double-quick. Enemy artil- lery fire was taking a heavy toll. The Brigade gallantly responded, and dashing forward broke the enemy’s second line and mounting the high ground beyond the Run, drove the enemy's artillery from its position. It was in this charge and at this time that the 53rd Pennsyl- vania reached the identical spot now marked by its monument. This monument is surmounted by a mustached infantryman in full marching equipment, rifle in hand, bayonet affixed, and wearing an overcoat. I'm sure none of them wore overcoats during, those hot July days "in 1863 and why the soldier on the monument wears one is ‘beyond me. The regiment. had advanced so far and was so strongly assailed by forces on both flanks that it was forced to retire, and none too soon because it was almost enveloped before it. reached and repassed the wheatfield where .it reformed be- hind stonewalls. It being then about 7 pm. and the fighting for the day practically over, it reformed on Cemetery Ridge where it dug rifle pits. ‘It saw little action on July 3rd when Pickett’s main charge was some distance to its right. Neither the regiment nor the Brigade was directly engaged, but the skirmish ES ‘0000000000000 0edb 00’ A Services Week at your own place of worship 0000000000000060000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000 WELCOME WAGON FRANCES IVES ‘BU 17-4467 ; 7 MRS.

But since the Southern skirmishers refrained from firing they were permitted to pass through the regiment's lines unmolested and were taken prisoners. The 53rd was recruited in North Central Pennsylvania and Luzerne County. Its total highest enroll- ment was 2080 and carried into action at Gettysburg only 135 of- ficers and men, 82 of whom were reported as killed, wounded, mis- sing on captured. Mustered in November 7, 1861, it reenlisted December 22, 1863 and was mustered out June 30, 1865. It saw action in seven of the battles of the Peninsula campaign; was in neither of the Bull Run Battles, but was at Antietam, Gettysburg, Wilderness, Spotsyl- vania, Cold Harbor, Petersburg and Appomattox. Space does not permit more de- tail, but since both of your grand- fathers were in the Second Corps, I would suggest that you would enjoy these books: The Battle of Gettysburg by Frank Aretas Has- kell, a young officer on General John Gibbon’s staff, who wrote it as a letter to his brother within Tucker. The first is published by Houghton Mifflin Co.; the second by Bobbs-Merrill. (Next week Sgt. Harry Osborn, Co. K.. 106th Regiment Pennsyl- vania Volunteers) Working Papers Fe .

Frank Oatridge Jr. regained conscious- ness briefly the following morning, and lapsed again into a stupor. Late reports are that he is now doing well. Frank, son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Oatridge, Carverton Road, apparently caught his foot in the spokes on a down-grade. The area, scrutinized by Assistant Chief Jess Coslett, showed no sign of skid marks in- dicating a hit-run accident. The boy, bleeding and wuncons- cious, was taken by a passing mot- orist to Trucksville Fire House, then to Dr. Richard Crompton’s office. Dr. Crompton called Kingston Town- ship ambulance for the trip to Nes- bitt.
