May 14, 1862 – Ohio Losses at Pittsburg Landing
Thomas W. Giles, one of the Cadiz company, that was wounded at Pittsburg Landing, arrived at home on last Saturday evening. He has been for the past month at the St. Louis Hospital. He was shot through the left hip with a musket ball. His wound is doing very well; and he thinks that by using cane he will in a short time be able again to shoulder his musket in defence of the Constitution and the Union.
