Nothing Could Get Away from Him.

“One of the amusing things about the fight,” said Col. Goodnow, as he gazed at the panorama Battle of Atlanta, “happened under my eye. Sergeant King, of my command,in the heat of the fight, came on to a set of false teeth that had dropped out of the mouth of a poor fellow who had been shot. He. picked them up, showed them to me, and said he didn’t propose to let Anything of that kind get away from him while gold was worth $1.75. He was as unconcerned about it as though dfeath was not being dealt on every side.”— St. I'aul Pioneer Press.
