mauga and the order came to retreat his body was placed on a
caisson and carried ofif the field, being the only body carried off
the field on the night of September 20th, 1863, or as the 68th
Indiana said: "He saved our flag and we saved his body."
Shortly before his death he had been promoted to the Colonelcy

Dayton, Ohio, where his father and brother-in-law, Mr. James
Greer, formed a partnership for the manufacture and sale of
stoves. Rufus King entered into their employment in 1834 and
on his father's retirement from the business in 1845 succeeded
to the business with Mr. Greer until the decease of the latter in
1874 and thereafter conducted the business alone until 1884 when

many years. Mr. and Mrs. King are now spending the evening
