He rejoined the regiment at St. Helena in June (it having reunited there from Botany Bay Island and Bay Point), pending the result of his trial. His absence on a 20 days' leave had actually been prolonged to 168 days. He went on duty with Co. I, then at Bay Point (Co. E there, too), and no more questions were asked. After arriving at Folly Island, he was again detached for special duty by Gen. Seymour, who directed him (9 July 1863) to duty with a flotilla of large scows, in which were the troops on the morning of 10th, and then were used as a ferry between Folly and Morris, after the troops had succeeded in landing on Morris. The ferry having been established, Lient. Wadlia at once rejoined the regiment on Morris, about nightfall of the 10th. Though detailed, he had been substantially with the regiment during the battle of the 10th.
The Engineer and Ordnance Departments again asserted their claims on Wadlia, and he assisted in building the first batteries erected on Morris Island by our forces. afterward known as the First Parallel. Lieut. Wadlia was with the regiment (Co. I) in that memorable assault on Wagner, 18 July 1863, and did himself credit. Following the defeat, Wadlia was sent to Pulaski for several 100 and 200-pounder Parrott guns and their carriages, for siege work. On his return, he mounted the gun so widely known as the "Swamp Angel." The following particulars concerning this famous gun will be of interest. He says : -
. . . Col. Serrell of the Engineers came to my quarters and asked me if I was willing to be detailed to mount a gun out in the marsh that would throw shells into Charleston . . . After a thorough explanation of the work in hand, and the perils attending it, and an agreement that the boat should be filled with timbers, so as to bring an even bearing and strain on all parts, by the Engineers, I consented to undertake the task of loading, transporting, unloading and mounting the gun. That night I visited the works where the mounting was to be done, and in a small boat traced the windings of the creek, which lay between the Battery and James Island. out into Light-HIonse Iulet, near Charleston Harbor, then back of the Inlet and up the narrow, winding water course that led up to where the gun was to be shipped, in the rear of the Left Batteries on Morris Island. The dan- gers were enough to unsteady one's nerves.
" The gun was a 200-pounder Parrott [erroneously reported to be a 300- pounder .- D.E.], weighing about 18.000 pounds, and was to be loaded on a surf boat about 20 feet long and & feet beam, and taken several miles through water courses barely sufficient to float it at high water. The boat would be like an egg-shell under the gun, and if landed at the bottom of one of those muddy creeks would have been a total loss, never to be regained, besides being an irreparable loss at that especial time and possibly subject the loser to dismissal from the service. At the time appointed, just before high tide, a detail of men and the boat were ready. Long stringers were laid, one end resting on the boat, the gun rolled on and ' chocked ' securely. The boat moved cantiously out of the shallow creek into the deeper waters of Light- House Inlet, where it was held two nights and two days waiting for the completion of the works and the building of the landing at the battery. The boat was loaded so the gunwale was not more than six inches out of water, and the boat had to be pumped out often and kept on an even keel in smooth water. I ' stayed with him,' as the cowboys say of the bucking broncho, and literally ate and slept by that gun.
" When everything was in order, the boat with its precious freight was towed by a small boat to the landing of the battery, the timbers laid as a land- ing, and the gun rolled into the battery. This was the work of one night. The night following, the gun was mounted, and I reported to Headquarters and was offered the command of the battery, with a detail from my regiment; but declined on account of my health, which the marshes of the Savannah

had already ruined . . . . the command was given to the Ninth Maine . the gun on trial was found not elevated enough, and I again went with a de- tail and removed the wheels from the chassis, and lowered the carriage to the platform, which gave the desired elevation -38 degrees. This gun threw long conical shells 8 inches in diameter. Owing to the weight of the pro- jectile, the friction to be overcome to give it the spiral motion at such au elevation, the strain was so great that after a short time the breach blew out of the reinforce, throwing the gun, now nothing but a hollow tube, upon the parapet in front. Two 10-inch sea-coast mortars were put in its place, and were inimediately dubbed the . Marsh Hens.' The wrecked . Swamp Angel' being now in the way, I was sent again with a detail of men ; and we turned the gun parallel with the parapet [muzzle to the right. - D. E. ] and buried it therein, where it lay till the government removed it shortly after 1870 . .
" A word as to the construction of the works . the location was on a wide extent of marsh, covered with water at high tide, between James and Morris Islands, on the banks of an unfordable creek, which gave protection from the enemy and made it convenient to transport material in boats. The soft mud was filled with small poles thrust down into it; then timbers laid parallel, with short spaces between, with poles laid in the mud, and bags of sand to fill up even. Then timbers were laid across and spaces filled as before. A parapet 8 feet thick at bottom and 6 feet at top, and 6 feet high, was built on three sides of a square space. A platform was laid in this enclosure, on which the gun was mounted. All the material was taken from Morris Island about six miles [circuitous ] . . . . this is my re- membrance of the works, etc., as I saw them several times in the course of construction."
Lieut. Wadlia then goes on to state that Headley's History of the Re- bellion is mistaken in its description of certain batteries, but notably as to the " Swamp Angel."
Our hero was mustered as Ist Lieutenant 31 July 1863. At one time in July, 1863, we find him on duty with D. He participated in the entire siege, being in command of K on that memorable morning (7 Sept. 1863) when the troops were ready to march in as a forlorn hope, and the fort (Wagner) was found to have been evacuated during the night.
All this time Lieut. Wadlia's case was pending - i.e., it had not been decided as to whether he should be made a citizen or still continue to wear shoulder straps. Data shows the embargo to have been removed from his pay (no offieer conld draw pay under such circumstances) in October, 1863: for on the 16th, at Morris Island, he got paid the magnificent sum of $1,047.66 (nearly a year's pay). This settled the question, but it was a long time coming. Presumably he invited his brother officers into his cloth resi- denee ; and they all " drank from the same canteen."
Lieut. Wadlia appears to have been in command of K from some time in September, 1863, to January, 1864, though he did not go with the company to Broad Island. The latter part of the time Co. K (and A and C) was on Broad Island, entting wood. Lieut. Wadiia was relieved by Capt. Stearns. on Broad Island, and returned to Morris Island, to G, about 23 Jan. 1864. He went to Florida with the regiment, and while there was on the drum-head court-martial case ( Miller shot).
In Virginia, he participated in the varions battles, with Co. G. at Drewry's Bluff, 13-16 May 1864. He was mustered as Captain 4 Jume and was transferred to Co. E. He was wounded in the calf of the leg 16 Aug. 1864, at Deep Bottom, Va. (otherwise called Flussell's Mills and Mine Run), while with his company (E) in the fore-front of the battle, being on the right of the regiment.
He renched Chesapeake Hospital, Hampton, Va., probably next day. Was in the hospital with Capt. (then Lient. ) White, Adjt. C'opp and the writer. The latter, after a few days, was permitted to room with Capt. Wadlia, who had a beautiful apartment, so far as location was concerned; for it looked directly out on the Roads and Fort Monroe, where all the shipping could be seen and all arrivals and departures observed. After awhile, to the dismay

of Capt. Wadlia, gangrene got into his wound; and the edict went forth that he must be removed to a tent outside, but near the main hospital, and have separate treatment. Well does the writer remember the look of sorrow as the gallant Captain was removed to his single ward - segregated, set apart, for sufficient reason, from his fellow-sufferers. Gangrene is no insignificant foe, by any means. The writer, who had became very much attached to his Captain (both in same company at time of wounds), took occasion to visit him frequently in his lonely tent; and when the writer was ordered to Annapolis, it was with great reluctance that he parted with his friend. It appears that the first gangrenous attack was repelled only to return and be fought again. Yet the Captain did not succumb.
Capt. Wadlia had a sick leave (date unknown) as soon as he was able to travel, and went home, reporting back to Washington, whence he was ordered to the officers' hospital at Annapolis (Naval Academy). He was there discharged, for disability, 10 Feb. 1865, by S. O. 66, W. D.
After the war Capt. Wadlia went West, finally settling at Greeley, Colorado, where, in 1890, he was engaged in agricultural pursuits. He at- tended the reunion at Weirs a few years prior and received a hearty wel- come.
NOTE. - Gen. Gillmore always spoke well of Wadlia and of his services on the Savannah. His book, containing report of Siege and Reduction of Fort Pulaski, page 58, Appendix C, says : -
7. Battery Burnside : .
Sergt. James E. Wilson, Co. A, U. S. Engineers. P. Maguire, Wadlie [blank here. - D.E.]
with a detachment of Eighth Maine Volunteers in three reliefs. [The italics are mine. - D.E.]
Such is fame. Gen. Gillmore, indirectly, gave Sergt. Wadlia discredit by failing to give him proper credit. Again his book, " Operations Against Charleston, 1863," says on page 147 (really Brig .- Gen. Turner's report) : -
" The piece [referring to ' Swamp Angel.' - D.E.] was mounted under the supervision of Lieut. Wadlie, Seventh New Hampshire [fame again; the italics are mine. - D.E.]. who deserves great credit for the accomplish- ment of this work, donc under so many difficulties."
Again, in the same book (really Col. Serrell's report), page 285, par. 115 : " On the night of the 17th of Aug. (1863) the Marsh Battery [this was its official name. - D.E.] was ready for the gun, and Lieut. Wadlie [the italics mine. - D. E. ] Third New Hampshire Volunteers, and Lient. Parsons, Volunteer Engineers, made their preparations to put the gun in place."
These are the credits Wadlia got, and with these he had to be content.
