TESTIMONY AS TO ZOOK'S HEROISM.


The following letter, placed in the hands of the writer on the 25th of July last (1882), while participating in the ceremonies incident to nn- veiling the shaft erected by the comrades of Zonk on the spot where he fell, is historical in its details and conveys in pathetic terms the story of Zook's patriotic discrimination between sensibilities requiring obedience to orders and an enlightened comprehension of manly and heroic duty in the hour of supreme necessity. We quote the letter in the exact phraseology received, leaving the blanks to attest the modesty of the gallant author :


"NEW YORK, July 21, 1882.


"To the Commander of Zook Post, No. 11, G. A. R., Department of Pennsylvania.


" Sin : It having been brought to my attention by accident that your Post was abont to unveil a shaft in comeunnoration of General Zook, who fell at Gettysburg, I am unable to resist the opportunity to record, for aught I know for the first time, that which, in the interest of history, justice and heroic patriotism, isdue to a deceased comrade whose memory should be honored among men. I did not personally know General Zook, and never met him but once, and that was a few minutes before his dieath. The brigade he was then commanding comprised the middle of the column of a division (Caldwell's) of the Second Corps which was mov- ing towards the support of the Third Corps on the afternoon of July 2, 1863, when the battle of that day had been purposely precipitated by the latter corps to save the army from being fatally flanked. As the Third Corps did not have a single regiment at that moment in reserve, the prompt dis- position of this supporting column of reinforcements was of vital necessity.


" A CRITICAL INTERVIEW.


" While Major -, who was then attached to the Third Corps staff, was conveying an urgent message to Zook's division commander re- specting the disposition to be made of this supporting column, he en- countered the brigade which, ou inquiry, proved to be Zook's. Seeking that officer at its head, the major asked General Zook where his division general could be found, explaining the urgency, which, indeed, was clear to every soldier in the column. It was apparent that before the major could ride to Zook's superior officer and have orders regularly conveyed back again to Zook, the latter's regiments would have passed beyond the point where fresh troops were instantly required. Zook was asked if under the circumstances, he would not immediately detach his troops from the column und move into action right where they were riding. He replied politely, but with soldierly mien, that his orders were


to follow the column. Repeating the request, the major asked Zook to assume the responsibility of compliance, promising to protect him and to return to him, as soon as possilde, with a formal order from the proper officer. Zouk and the major were utter strangers to each other. It was a critical interview. There was no time to parley. The exhausted lines of Birney's division were stubbornly fighting a corps. It was obvious, too, that Zook, as well as the major, appreciated that neither the request nor compliance with it could be considered withiu the strict limits of regular military propriety. 'sir,' said Zuok, with a calm, firm look, full of significance, 'if you will give me the order of General Sickles, I will obey it.' 'Then,' was answered, 'General Sickles' order is, general, that you file your brigade to the right and move into action here.'


" ZOOK'S GALLANT RESPONSE.


"To the surprise and delight of Major -, Zook promptly wheeled bis horse out of the colminn, gave the command 'File right,' and gal- lantly marched his brigade into the battle-line and himself to his death. Few men would have acted as Zook did. Yet had he acted otherwise it might have changed the fate of the day. It was such acts that won Get- tysburg. Indeed, history will record that it was the spirit of just such acts in every rank that began, continued, conducted and concluded the battle of Gettysburg, regardless, if not in spite, of orders. Zook gave little heed to the promise to send him ratified orders, but silently ac- knowledging the tbanks tendered him, busied himself with his work in hand, in which he so speedily fell. Thus it was that a soldier of disin- terested devotion, patriotic instinct, thoughtful courage and sublime com- radeship met his death at Gettysburg. This is my only apology for in- truding now among bis more immediate comrades and friends.


" Yours very respectfully, "HENRY EDWIN TREMAIN,


" Formerly Brevet Brigadier-General und A. D. C. United States Volunteers."

DEATH OF GENERAL ZOOK.


A writer in the Philadelphia Sunday Transcript of March 12, 1864, in describing the scene at this particular time, says : " When they reached the ground the disordered troops impeded the advance of the brigade. ' If you can't get out of the way,' cried Zook, 'lie down and I'll march over you.' " The meu were ordered to lie down, and the chivalrie Zook and his splendid brigade did march over them and into the deadly breach. Here, among the granite rocks and boulders of the wheat-field, in com- mand of invincible troops, who had followed bim in battle from Fair Oaks to Gettysburg, whose courage and endurance were never questioned, marching under a national flag to fill a gap in an imperiled line of battle, his conduet and that of his men involving results affecting the entire field of operations, surrounded by a brave and efficient staff, he was for the time being the most conspicuous man on the field and fell in the flood-tide of his truly distinguished and manly career. At or about three o'clock p.M. the fatal bullet went crashing through his body. Leaning forward on his horse, he was caught in the arms of Captains Favill and Brown, of his staff, to whom he said : " It's all up with me, Favill." He was carried from the field an object of sympathy, and died on the afternoon of the following day. He was cool and composed to the last moment of his life. About fifteen minutes before his death he quietly inquired of his attending physician how long he had to live, hav- ing previously requested his adjutant-general to ascertain and advise him bow the battle was going. Just at this moment Captain Favill reported "that the bands had been ordered to the front, flags were flying and the enemy were in retreat." "Then I am perfectly satisfied," said the general, "and ready to die." In the hour of victory for the cause he loved and served so well, "satisfied" and "ready to die, " his great and fearless soul went ont from his suffering body, amidst scenes and sounds, joys and triumphs, thundered forth by the victorious Army of the Poto- mac, from Culp's Hill on the right to Round Top on the left.


AS I'NIQUE MEMORIAL SHAFT.


Among the many memorials placed upon the battle-field of Gettysburg none is more original in design, pleasing in taste, inexpensive and, withal, so enduring as Zook's. A hinge granite boulder, near the spot where Zook fell, rises out of the earth, measuring about nine feet in diameter at the soil line or base, rounded in irregular form to a cone or apex, about five feet from the earth's surface. Tuto the top of this rock- mound a blue marble shaft is sunk and wedged with the most durable material known to the art of masonry. Tbe shaft is eight feet high, six- teen inches at the base, tapering in pleasing proportion to a rounded top. The blue marble is conspicuous in contrast with the prevailing gray tiut of the rock, while at some distance rock and shaft seem tbe most prominent object upon the famous wheat-field. Here, on the 25th of July 1882, assembled tbe comrades of the lamented Zook, mingling with them companions of his boyhood from the hills of Valley Forge, to do honor to his distinguished service to the country and memorialize his untimely death, Ilere, to the charming melody and anthems of praise, deepened by the impressive voice of prayer, the spot was solemnly dedi- cated and made historic for all time to come .- En.
