Note
|
From the Brief History of Company "B", it appears that Ellis was a private and killed at the battle of Missionary Ridge. In a history of this Company by Mr. Sol Emanuel, a soldier of Company "A", he states tha "among the killed was the splendid soldier E. Russ." He also writes "It seems hardly fair to designate special names as worthy of note in a command where practically all deserve special mention, but the writer of this, too young to be an enlisted soldier, spent so much of his timewith his father, Captian Tolar, that he was called 'the boy of the regiment,' was attracted by certain personalities, whom he cannot refrain from mentioning. ..... Lieut. E. T. Lewis, also a brave officer, had a peculiarity of always turning hishead and face rather to one side and chin tucked down, when he went into battle as though he was facing a violent hail storm, but he never waivered from his place in the line." |
