"Really neat. Walk up and take a look out!"
"While the signs commemorate a small artillery battery position early in the war, this spot's major strategic importance is in as a Confederate position during Gettysburg retreat in mid-July 1863. 8th IL Cav fought valiantly against rebels covering retreat."
"Nice view for a minute, that's about it. Captain Abner Doubleday, erroneously credited as "inventing" baseball, had a Union artillery company here on this hill, and played plenty of baseball with his men to while away the hours too."
