Excerpt from Miller and Soldier: First Lieutenant Third New York Cavalry Member of the Loyal Legion This is not a ghost story nor a piece of fiction of any kind; for I-pride myself on trying at least to be a real man, and on having served two quite real and useful functions in life for about fifty years that of a practical miller, having worked in some fifty different flouting mills, and for four years a soldier in the. Federal Cavalry, where I had some quite trying experiences. The very unusual character of one of these was the-occa tsion which in the first instance led to the writing of this little work. I was a First Lieutenant in command of Company C, Third New' York Cavalry, which formed a part of the First Brigade of General Kautz' Cavalry Division of the Army of the Potomac, during the campaign of 1864. On October 6th of that year I was in command of the vi dette posts in front of the picket-line of our Brigade to the right of the Darbytown road not many miles from Richmond. Which city we expected to reach. I got there on the evening of the next day, but not in the way I anticipated. Our vidette posts were located on the night of the oth in an open field beyond a rail fence, a few rods from a piece of woods. Across this field and stretching round our right was another piece of woods. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
