<< That makes a lot more sense now. I had never seen that kind of crossing
of wires of the college for the seminary, to be honest. I was assuming
that they had tracked back along the northern fencelines of the College
over to the Seminary, then into town via the Chambersburg corridor. >>
There's also an account from Osborn. 11th Corps artillery brigade commander,
which unfortunately I don't have ready to hand, which also refers to the
Seminary when it's clear from context he was referring to the college.
Really a reasonable enough mistake to make, under the circumstances, for
people who didn't have any prior knowledge of which instiution was which.
