Obituary
We have been kindly furnished the following information concerning the loss in Co. B; Eleven wounded and one killed - Gilman Storrs, a son of William Storrs of Montpelier, was the first one hit, wounded inside, and died in a few moments. The Company took his death very hard, and "felt terribly when we consigned him to his grave."
