Roster of the Buckingham Yancey Guard. 159
regimental band played the old tune, " Carry Me Back to Old Vir- ginia Shore," and hardly a dry eye could be seen in the entire assemblage.
James Spencer. Dead. Many of these soldiers marked " dead " I am sure were either killed in battle or died from their wounds. James Spencer was a true and gallant Confederate soldier.
LED AT GETTYSBURG.
Charles R. Steger. The foremost man in the great charge of Pickett's Division at Gettysburg except the gallant Lieutenant- Colonel Rawley Martin, of another regiment who wears that dis- tinguished honor. Charles R. Steger was sitting straddle of a cannon on the heights cheering with all his might, and states that the Fed- eral army had commenced to retreat when he was grabbed in the collar and jerked down. Stephen A. Duncan, a gallant soldier of another command was near him.
John Steger. Wounded and lost his left leg at the battle of Games' Mill.
Lewis Tindall. Killed at the second battle of Cold Harbor. His life had previously been saved by a Bible sent him by his mother which had been placed over his heart. He was among the very bravest of the brave.
Jefferson Walker. He was a native of Florida, and promoted to the rank of lieutenant in another company and fell in the forefront of battle. Nature seems to have vied with herself in endowing alike his body and his mind.
