. To sacrifice, to suffer, and if need be, to die : a history of the thirty-fourth New York Regiment. k of theRebellion, you will find your-self standing very nearlywhere the Thirty-fourthwould have stood had it beenpresent at that engagement.Just beyond, along theavenue, which is now morefrequently thronged than anyother on that great historicfield, are the markers, whichindicate where the brigadestood on that eventful thirdday of the battle, when Picketts Division emerged from yonder woods, and made its auda-cious march across these level fields.
