cannoneer

Two hours later those cannon were fired, and unluckily killed the cannoneer who had given Lilly a timely warning.

The cannoneer chose the densest red of the advancing mass, and sent the shot straight to the mark.

Yes, and the moat Fill'd up; the cannoneer hath done his parts; We may enter six abreast.

The gun was free to pass, and it passed, each cannoneer and driver looking once at John Agnor, lying dead with a steady face.

Many a cannoneer had sought rest on his back on the march, but none had ventured on so high a perch when going into battle.
