at the battle of fredericksburg in 1862, while shells from the federal guns were bursting over the heads of the retreating skirmishers of the confederate army, colour sergeant buck denman was behind the corner of a house taking sight for a last shot at the federals. rough in manner but withal a noble, tender-hearted man, he suddenly saw a three-year-old girl toddling out of an alley accompanied by a dog. she was giving chase to a shell rolling along the pavement.
buck's hand dropped from the trigger. a moment and he has grouded his gun, dashed out into the hell of shot and shell, swept his right arm round the girl, gained cover again and with the girl clasped to his breast and musket trailing in his left hand is trotting after the boys up to the heights.
