Capturing a Locomotive: A History of Secret Service in the Late War.

by William Pittenger

"Storm'd at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well;
Into the jaws of death,
Into the mouth of hell,
Rode the six hundred.
* * * * * *
"They that had fought so well
Came through the jaws of death
Back from the mouth of hell,
All that was left of them—
Left of six hundred."
Tennyson's Charge of the Light Brigade.
