Long ago, the year that I visited Gettysburg, I walked along much of the ridge held by the Confederates.

Up in the trunks of several of the trees, were holes where the Union rifle rounds struck. They were black holes, and they seeped a bit of black and slightly leaden “sap.”

Clapping madly. Didn’t see anything like that. Incredibly neat!
