Miner's Journal, 5/14/1864


The killed and wounded of our regiments in the Late Battles - the 96th, 48th, 50th and other regiments in which they are gallant souls from Schuylkill County, have undoubtedly suffered in the battles of the week in Virginia, and the anxiety to hear from them, is intense in this community. We were in hopes that we would be able to furnish this week, some intelligence of the casualties, but what we have received so far is meager.

We learn from a letter in yesterday's Philadelphia Inquirer dated 'Spottsylvania Court House May 11' that in the terrible battle of Tuesday last, May Levi Huber of the 96th Regiment was seriously wounded. His many friends trust that it will not preclude his recovery, for he is a gallant officer and an estimable citizen.

The only names wounded that we have seen published in the daily papers up to yesterday are as follows:
96th Regiment, P.V.
H. C. Neathamer, thigh;
Michael Yoast, arm;
John Donegan, hand;
Jos. Eick, hand;
Solomon Mayer, groin;
Chas. Eick, leg;
George Moyer, Co. E.
