Company E
William A Kain - Private
Detailed as regimental butcher. We have a number of letters, from National Archives and family collection. He was killed in action at Missionary Ridge, November 1863, moments after 'silencing' a sniper who had held up his squad in the 2nd line of rifle pits. William shot left handed and was the only one who could hit the sharpshooter. His descendants have items sent home from his haversack - pocket testament, postal currency, stencil, pocket watch, cap pouch.
