Official Records of the Union Army.
Lieutenant Thomas Hooton, of Co. D., was doing his whole duty nobly, rallying and regulating his company, when a heavy grape-shot passed entirely through his right thigh nearly up to the body. He was carried to the rear, passing his men and urging them on, and he lived but a short time.
