THE ARTILLERY-WAGON.

Fig. 66.

Weight complete, 1868 pounds.

This wagon, on the canvas cover of which is painted its name and the designation of the battery, is made of white oak, and is for carrying the knapsacks, ammunition for small-arms, spare small-arms, and spare intrenching tools of the battery. It has the same track as the other artillery-carriages, and the axles are self-oiling, one filling lasting a month.

The capacity of the interior is for 120 knapsacks, weighing about 3000 pounds.
