<h3>WITH TWO GUNS, HOLD OFF AN ARMY.</h3>
<p>One Irish artilleryman was left behind, with one gun of his battery,
on the wrong bank of the Potomac, when the Union Army retreated before
Lee. This gunner actually telegraphed direct to the President as his
commander-in-chief that:</p>
<p>"I have the whole rebel army in my front. Send me another gun, and
I assure your honor that they shall not come over!"</p>
<p>This pleased the President greatly, who answered that the new Horatius
was to take counsel with his officer--if he could find him!
