DEATH BEFORE ATLANTA Good war-date letter from Harlan P. Martin 123rd N.Y. Vols. 2pp. 8vo. ""3 miles North of Atlanta"" July 23 1864. Martin writes his mother in part: ""…The regiment was in a fight the 20th and lost heavily…our brigade was used up pretty badly. John Darcy was shot throughout the head & died…the ball went in the back side of his head and came out over his eye…George Donly…was killed…The Regiment lost 88 men killed & wounded…The 141st N.Y. had every officer but 2 killed…our men had no breastworks and lost heavily…they tried to break our center but failed…they are building breast works within a few rods of the rebel works…lots of dead rebels that are not buried on the battle field the maggots crawling over them…"".
