The devil waa tha first coacher. He

Rebecca at the well she was walking

ly welcome. The reason for this waa
that on the great Issue wa were a di
vided family. My aiaier Carey, who
was then iweoty-two. favored the
Confederate, while I. a girl of nine
teen, favored the Union cause. We
were both reasonably attractive and
had plenty of attention from the offi
cers visiting our bouse. Father wss a
colonel In the Confederate army and
my brother Sam a lleotenant In the
Federal army. But neither of there
waa fighting la our neighborhood.
Possibly we girl might hsv wslted
a long while for husbands bad It not
been for the great Influx of soldiers
Into oar neighborhood. The conse
quence of this Influx was the engage
ment of Carey aad myself soon after
their coming. 1 to Captain Boot, a
Federal; Carey to Captain Fltxbugb.
a Confederate officer.
. At one time whea we were la, the
Confederate lines the general com
mandlng rode up to the bouse and
asked my mother If the would give
him a room In which to meet some of
his Beers. She offered the parlor, and
bo sent messengers with orders for the
officers to report to him there at once.
Within half an hoar they bad assem
bled and were all generals. I sur
mised that something Important waa
on foot and wiabed that I might bear
what It waa In order to tranxnilt It to
my friend of the other side. Under
aeath the parlor la which the confer
ence was held was the cellar I went
down there, but could hear nothing
There was no other position I could
take to enable me to gain my In
formation of what was being disease
ed In the parlor. Besides, Carey was
watching me.
When the council waa ended and the
generate bad departed I went Into the
parlor and looked about, hoping to dis
cover something possibly a bit of
paper that bad been dropped to Indi
cate what had bqrn the subject of
discussion. There were some tiny
pieces on the floor which I picked op
and put together, but only figures bad
been put on the' whole before It had
been torn to scrape. I kept the bit
and found out afterward that tbey
figured the strength of the different
divisions of tbe Confederate army In
that location. "
But there wa not enough In tbl to
satisfy me. and I looked further. A
stove In the room, owing to tbe condi
tion of the negroes consequent upon
tbe excitement of war. bad not been
removed for the eummer. In my hunt
I opened It door. ' Lying on the ashes
of previous wood fires was a fragment
of paper tbe rest of which was burn
ed. Taking it out I saw that It was
memoranda written In lead pencil. Jlut
anfortonately not one-half remained.
What waa left of tbe writing was aa
