of Gettysburg


Caption: Devil's Den Ledge, Gettysburg, Pa.

One of the Natural landmarks that attract attention of tourists is the immense ledge of rocks in front of Round Top. it furnished shelter for Confederate sharpshooters who were picking off the gunners at the batteries on Little Round Top. The barricade of one is yet pointed out in the rear. He had been killed by the concussion of a shell, which had exploded at the crevice of the rock against which his head was leaning and when found, there was not a mark on his body.
