Battery K
Civil War Newspaper Clippings --
We had some half dozen wounded in the battery, all of the 11th N. Y.; none of them so seriously as to endanger life or limbs. I regret to say that Solomon Goodbread, our cook, was wounded on Saturday whilst serving coffee and beef to our exhausted boys on the battle-field. --The ball was sent by a rebel sharp-shooter, and entered the loins near the back-bone, passing out through the abdomen. I fear he will not survive, even if he is not already dead. It appears though that he did survive this wound
