tian's. 1 have eaten his hoe cake and pos
sum, slept beforo his rodo fireplace,
walked and hunted with him, studied
him from all sides, aud yet ho is as much
of an enigma as tho day'l first saw him
Ono evening, after a hard day's climb
In tho mountains beyond Athens. 1 camo
upon a log cabin near tho road I said
evening, because everything after 12 is
"evening" in tho south It was about 5
o'clock in tho afternoon A man sat on a
log at the door smoking aud whittling,
three children vvero playing about, and a
woman sat on tho door sill with elbows
on her knees and her faco in her hands
As I came near tho man looked up and said
"Howdy, stranger?"
Tho woman slowly lifted a faco tho color
of a sunflower, gazed at mo for half a
ininute, aud then added.
"IlowdyV"
Tho children sat down on tho log in n
bashful way, each sucking a linger, and
tho father pocketed his knife, knocked tho
ashes from his pipe and continued
"Make yerself right to hum, stranger
Children, bring the gourd, and you, Jen,
hunt up a bite to eat "
1 explained that all I asked was a drink
of water aud soma information about iho
route, but he spoko up with considerable
energy
"You must stop with us to-night.
There's no other place for ten miles whar'
they are fixed to take you in "
I demurred and ho inMsted, and I
finally sat down besido him Wo had
srareely begun a conversation when tho
Vomau looked up and drawled.
"Say. Hi "
"WhutV"
"Better git yer gun."
"Why?"
" 'Cause Robinson's coming."
The man vou up. passed tho woman,
ijid next moment came out with a rilio in
his hands He stood on the log and looked
down tho road, and as I cast my eyes in
that direction I suw a man leave tho road
aud take to a tree
"Yes. that's Robinson,
host ".Stranger, you'd

yourself I"
I s-at down on tho ground besido the
log, while tho children took cover on tho
other sine Tho woman never moved.
"Who is Robinson and what does ho
want?" I finally asked
"Lives down on the creek, and wants to
shoot me." was tho calm reply
"Ho's gittiu yer raugo, llil" remarked,
rather than exclaimed, tho woman.
Next moment a bullet whistled over my
head and the report of Robinson's rill
camo to our ears
"Ho couldn't hit a barn at tho end o
his gunl" muttered Hi, who stood with
riflo ready to raise to his faco
There was a long silence, and then ho
stepped down and said
"Uuess wod better go In, stranger
Robinson's an onery skunk, and is prob
ably creepiu' up on us for a clusser shot
Jist don't mind us, but make yerself to
hum."
"The door hud not been shut to after ns
as wo entered tho cabin when a bullet
struck it This aroused the spirit of the
woman, aud she exclaimed
"There. Hi Skivens. didn't I alius say
Robiuson was a coward?"
"Yes, you alius did "
"And you bev got to wipe him out?"
"Yes, I hev Tuin't uo use puttin up
with him uo moah "
"Ilavo you and Robinson been at this
thing very long?" I asked, as I sat down.
" 'IJout three years "
"It's what they call a feud, is it?"
"That's tho name, I guess I'd have
had him twice if my gun hadn't missed
fire, and he s hit mo once "
'Only a trilio. though," added the
woman, as if I would regard tho wound
as n stain upon his honor
"I'd like to see tho man as could kill
pop!" exclaimed tho oldest child, a girl
of 10.
"Go long, Nancy, and tako that with
youl" said the mother, as she bestowed a
bound cuff on tho ear
Robinson now fired a bullet through
tho only front wiudow aud uttered u war
whoop.
.'(join' to stand it?" queried tho woman
as she looked over to her husbaud
"In coiirco not Stranger. I'm sorry
for this miihs That onery Robiuson lias
took advantage of your beiu' hero to raise
a. furze Don't blanio it on to mo."
I excused him and asked him for tho
origin of the feud Ho could not gi o a
clear reason, and after ten minutes' argu
nient ho contented to let mo go out and
talk witli Robinson I opened tho door,
waved tho oulv white- cloth tho woman
could find in tlio house, and soon after
went out. Robiuson was behiud a treo
across tho road
"Howdy, btranger?" ho queried as I
camo up. "Has Hi surrendered?"
When I told himthat I had come to act
as a peacemaker ho laughed tho idea to
Bcoru.
"Didn't ho toll a hull bar room full of
fellers at Athens that ho could put mo on
my backr" ho liuwlod.
"And what olfcoY"
"Didn't ho call mo a sassafras chewer
and make fun of my shootinY'
I went back to HI. and ho roaiwl out
"Didn't ho brag of how ho could out

"Whutelset"
"Didn't ho say wo run of! darin the

I wont back to Itobhiion, and lust as

A PLUCKY .MULE,
RUNNING THZ GAUNTLET OF A
CONFEDERATE CANNONADE.
Itnullnc n Load of
Ammunition Under
1 Iro from I'ort Sumter mill Mattery
Wiikiifi Critical Ztlunient the Ijtst
Shot Safe.
Sometimes tho mulo is called upon for
special service, requiring qualities for which
ho does not generally receive credit, Tho
lines were tightening about Charleston when
Admiral Dahlgren's lleet began orntions in
tlio harbor, and rendered it practicable for
tho troops on shore to ndvanco with sonio
hoo of being able to hold txiints previously
untenable. During tho night n detachment
of the Tenth corps dislodged a picket post tm
tho eastern end of Morris island, and wheu
daylight came had thrown up quite aformid
able beginning for a field work. Uutthoplaco
was within easy range of Fort Sumter and
Battery Wagner, and every Confederate gun
that could Ik) brought to bear began to drop
shell into the littleoarthwork. It was thought
that an attempt was nlioiit to bo made to
carry tho place by assault, and, while there
wero men enough to hold it, they weroa little
short of ammunition, Tho only practicable
road was a milo and a half of hard, smooth
sand beach, commanded from cud to end by
the Confederate batteries.
But there was n combination in tho Federal
camp that was equal to tho emergency;
namely, a fleet mulo and a plucky driver.
Tho mulo is mentioned llrst, ouly lecauso ho
has long since kicked his last kick, but tho
driver, if lie still survives, will acknowledge
that without tho mulo ho could not lmvodono
what ho did. It may bo assumed that tho
mule had a good feed of oats beforo ho was
.1.- .1.. , .!!.,..
v4utt.-vt o'uo iu inn iuu giiuimei, iiuti jHissioiy
tlio driver, too, may then havo felt justified
in fortifying the inner man. Be that as it
may, just beforo noon a few boxes of ammu
nition wero thrown intotho lightest avallablo
wagoti, and, after looking tho harness over
carefully, tho driver took his seat in tho
shelter of tho sand hills. Tho mulo stood
with his extensivo ears raking aft und a
wicked gleam iu his eye, ns if tho outs were
beginniug to riso into his brain.
"Gootl-by, boysl G'up, muler' and tho
equipago started down through tho dry sand
to the hard level of the beach. Mulo shook
his head nnd executed a tlemi-volt when ho
felt the damp sand under his feet, but driver
soothed him witli endearing words. It had not
not yet dawned upon tho Confederates that ths
expedition was intended for the relief of tho
garrison. But presently tho gleam of intel
ligence was indicated with a rush in tho
shapo of a 6hell from tho southeast angle
of Sumter. It struck tho water fairly
in line, ricocheted, and burst over in
tho marsh; but it was tho signal for action.
Up went tho whip, and tlio mulo gathered
his mighty hind legs under him. For a mo
ment it was uncertain whether ho was going
to kick or run, but a few remarks from tlio
driver convinced him that .there was .de
mand for forward movement, so ho "lit out
for all ho was worth." At least thirty guns
commanded that streteli of beach, mid they
pounded away as fast um they could be fired.
Now aud then a shell would burst rather too
near tho mule's ears for comfort, and ho
would nlieer violently and try to muko for
homo. But tho gallant driver plied the lash,
and held him to his work.
At length a ten inch shell toro up tho
beach and exploded so near that the mulo
was entirely demoralised; but not so his
driver. Leaping down from his seat ho
caught tho mulo by tho head, backed him
rapidly round once or twice, and was oir
again on tlio keen Jimii) before the cuiincrs
could get his raugo us a fixed object. On ho 1
went, anil at last dashed into tho redoubt;
but thero was no shelter in it for tho mule.
His ears waved conspicuously above the low
lying parajict.
Tho ammunition boxes wero tumbled out
unceremoniously, and themule's nose tainted1
for homo! With the lightened load and the
prospects of unlimited fodder, ho beat the pre
vious record. But the Confederate artillerists
wero ou their metal now. They had failed to
stop tho supplies, but their hearts burned for
revenge. Their shots, now camo more from
tho roar, nnd liet.s wero freely offered with no
takers, on what tho result would lie should
tho mule havo a fair chance to kick a ten
inch shell, as it were, "on (lie fly." Tim
crescendo scream of shell chasing him up tho
beach, lent wings to li is heels, and he lairly
flow toward the sheltering sand hills. There
wero only a few rods nioro to bo covered,
when somo careful gunner mado u close cal
culation ns to the lengthening range, and
pulled his lanyard almost in tho nick of time.
Tho huge moss of iron struck tlio Iteach, as it
6ccmed to tho anxious sjiectators, exactly be
hind tho wagon, and tho next instant noth
ing was to bo been thero but u cloud of white
smoke and brown sand. Iu an instant, how
ever, this flouted away, and tho mulo was
seen vigorously reducing to kindling wood
what was left of the quartermaster's wagon.
And tho driver, where is he Well, ho was
apparently knocked over by tho explosion,
but ho got on his feet in a moment, and,
having cut tho traces, was on tho mule's
back in another, waving his hat in rcsponso
to tho cheers that rolled across tho water
from Yaukeo blue jackets, from Confederate
garrisons, and from tho dark bluo masses
that crowned tho distant utuil dunes.
It is a pity that the driver's niinio has not
been preserved, for his daring net certainly
deserves recognition and reward. Perhaps
ho received both, but tho writer has been un
