James Q Odle - Private
|
By letter from Lieutenant Clark, we learned the part borne by the Jay County boys in the great battle of Shiloh. They were in the thickest of the fight for 2 1/2 hours and during that time, the Rebels commenced their retreat. They fought bravely and well, though it was the first battle they had ever engaged in. It was a trying time to their nerve and courage. For nearly 2 days the battle had raged most furiously and more than half that time the Rebels had driven our men. The boys heard the cannonading from the opening roar and had seen hundreds of wounded and dying borne from the field. In these circumstances they were called into the field and placed in the center. It was marching into the jaws of death. But they went forward boldly and fought well. All honor to them. Jay County is proud of her soldiers. James was mortally wounded and died at the residence of his brother at Windsor, Randolph County, June 18, 1862.

In August of 1861 he responded to the call of his country for defenders, enlisting in Company 'I', 39th Indiana Infantry, in which he served the full term of three years attaining to the rank of Sergeant.
