Devil
Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: November 11, 2008
Caption: Devil's Den From the Slyder Farm
Additional Description: Looking north from the Slyder Farm. This view gives an idea of the battlefield geometry in the south part of the battlefield. On the profile of the open top of the Devil's Den is the distinct 99th Pennsylvania Monument (and the 124th New York Monument is seen if one looks closely). Smith's Battery had four guns on the crest of the Devil's Den, firing on the advancing Confederates. Triangle Field where the 1st Texas advanced is just in front of the Den, to the left. Rose Run joins Plum Run in the fields in front of the Devil's Den.
