As he did so, a minie ball passed through his saddle and embedded itself in his upper thigh near the groin. He was helped down from his horse but refused to leave the field until the outcome was apparent. An aide propped him up against an empty ammunition case and applied a tourniquet to his wound by winding a piece of cloth around a pistol barrel. </div> <bR> <div> This carving, in Butternut, depicts General Hancock, with the pistol barrel tourniquet around his leg, intently following the battle as it progresses. </div> <bR> <div> The piece is currently on display in the Southwood Sculpture Studio</div> <bR> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="48553d90.png" border=0 width="595" height="473" ALT="Paint Shop Pro Image" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <A HREF="cwcarvings.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Civil War Woodcarvings"><IMG SRC="2bd464f0.jpg" border=0 width="70" height="79" ALIGN="LEFT" HSPACE="20" VSPACE="0"></A></div> <div> More Woodcarvings on Civil War subjects</div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2"> <tr> <td> <div align="center"><a href="http://search.directnic.com/?aff=9"><img src="http://banners.directnic.com/search/dnsearchad011.gif" width="468" height="60" border="0" alt="directNIC Search"></a></div> </td> </tr> </table> <CENTER> <font color="#FF0000" size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Hosted by <a href="http://www.directnic.com/" target="_top" style="color: red">directNIC.com</a></font> <br><br>  <script language="Javascript"> // do not make any changes to anything past this point or tracking script will not work var data; document.cookie='__support_check=1'; if (location.host) { var domain_name = '&d=' + location.host; } else { var domain_name = '&d=unknown'; } if (document.referrer) { var referrer_website = '&r=' + document.referrer; } else { var referrer_website = '&r=unknown'; } if (navigator.appName) { var browser_name = '&b=' + escape(navigator.appName); } else { var browser_name = '&b=unknown'; } if (navigator.userAgent) { var full_browser_info = '&fbi=' + escape(navigator.userAgent); } else { var full_browser_info = '&fbi=unknown'; } if (navigator.appVersion) { var app_version = '&aV=' + escape(navigator.appVersion); } else { var app_version = '&aV=unknown'; } if (navigator.javaEnabled()) { var java_enabled = '&jE=' + navigator.javaEnabled(); } else { var java_enabled = '&jE=unknown'; } if (screen.width) { var screen_width = '&sw=' + screen.width; } else { var screen_width = '&sw=unknown'; } if (screen.height) { var screen_height = '&sh=' + screen.height; } else { var screen_height = '&sh=unknown'; } if (screen.colorDepth) { var color_depth = '&cd=' + screen.colorDepth; } else { var color_depth = '&cd=unknown'; } data = 'a=track' + domain_name + referrer_website + browser_name + full_browser_info + app_version; data = data + java_enabled + screen_width + screen_height + color_depth; document.write('<img border=0 hspace=0 vspace=0 src="http://stats.directnic.com/tracker.php?' + data + '">'); </script> <noscript> <img border=0 hspace=0 vspace=0 src="http://stats.directnic.com/tracker.php?a=noscript"> </noscript>  </CENTER></body>
