Patrick Mooney was one of the best and bravest soldiers in General Meade'a army, and it is his delight of a winter or summer night to tell of his experience towards the close of the third day of Gettysburg. " Faith, I had been peggin' away at the Eebs. all day long, a-loadin' an' a-firin', an' a-firin' an' a-loadin', whin up comes the Gineral hisself. He halted his horse, an' stood awatchin' me fur a while, an' finally he ups an' shouts : — ' There, Private Mooney, you can go to the rear. You've kilt full enough mm fur wan day! 1 "
