SHELBY COUNTY CIVIL WAR
-

Editorial Note :- Reprinted here is an excerpt from the diary of Sgt. (later Lt.) David Fately, a Flat Rock soldier in Co. D, 33rd Indiana. This was written on March 9 and 10, 1863, near Tullahoma, Tennessee, shortly after the battle of Thompson's Station, in which the Union forces were captured, and Fateley made prisoner. Reading of this passage should give us a clearer conception than we might otherwise have, of the suffering and hardships endured by the Boys in Blue in their efforts to save the Union.
The Passage :- "We were then kept in the court yard til noon before we got any thing to eat then we got two days rations of corn bread & fat meat & started for Tullahoma we came 9 miles & camped in a cedar grove we lay down to sleep at 9 & rested well til 3 when it commenced to rain & it just kept it up we got up & stood around our fires til 7 o'clock when we started on we have 12 miles to go yet it rained as hard as it could we had to cross five or six creeks & had to wade them I never saw such roads & never had such a time We got to Tullahoma at 4 & were wet tired and hungry & were put in a lot where the mud was shoe mouth deep & it pooring it down as fast as it could we only had a few sticks of green oak wood & we started a fire & crowded around it I have seen a great many sights but this beat all of them we had nothing to eat but meal & a little bacon we made some mush in our tin cups & ate it with our fat meat this was the best we could do I never saw men suffer as we do but you never hear a murmur out of us."

SHELBY COUNTY CIVIL WAR
Excerpts from the Poem
"RETROSPECTION" by William R. Hartpence Sgt. Major, 51st Indiana
"A vision floats before me, a phantom troop goes by, With bayonets glistening brightly, and banners waving high: Down to the fields of strife they go, with proud and gallant tread; Down to the feast of carnage-to the harvest of the dead.
We marched and bunked together, on the mountain-side and plain; On barks of trees we made our beds at Shiloh, in the rain; You nursed me in my sickness, and brought me back to life; Your cheers inspired my courage, in the din and heat of strife;
And so, my grizzled comrade, as we near life's ragged edge, I warm to you, and here renew, our old fraternal pledge. Our tramping days are nearly done; our sun is in the west; We're nearing camp ;- I see the light ! We soon will take our rest:
So, here's a health to you and yours, my comrades true and brave,- To the dear old flag we love so much,-forever may it wave !
