" He got out of the line of shells and bullets wherethere was no call for his presence, and when the only justificationfor remaining would be to gratify idle curiosity. Yet, when dutycalled, when there was need to know both the facts, and the truth tobe deduced from the facts, whistling bullets or screeching shellsnever sufficed to drive him away. His coolness with pen and pencil, amid the dropping fire of the enemy, made heroes of many a soldierwhose nerves were not as strong as was the instin...ct of his legs torun. The lady librarian of Dover, N. H. , thus writes: "An old soldier whom I was once showing through the library stoppedshort in front of Coffin's books and looked at them with muchinterest. He said that at his first battle, --I think it wasFredericksburg, but of this I am not sure, --he was scared almost todeath. He was a mere boy, and when his regiment was ordered to thefront and the shot was lively around him, he would have run away if hehad dared. But a little distance off, he saw a man standing under thelee of a tree and writing away as coolly as if he were standing at adesk.
