iZ ’ I > I J z THE ENEMY’S ay w ‘ r a <7 * * •‘ whar ’ s you uns gwine ?” 1 had every reason to believe that my nerves were proof against shock, but when I heard the Confederate officer calling my companion Bell by name I felt for the instant more alarmed than I had ever been before or have ever been since, and if I had had to respond I am very sure my voice and manner would have betrayed me. Up to this time our greatest trouble was to avoid the search parties who were scouring the country for Confeder ate deserters and horse thieves, but here we were iu the enemy’s camp, disguised in his uniform and pretending to belong to his army. Detection now meant that f we should l>e treated as spies, and we both knew how relentlessly men of that character had been executed by both sides. My back was to the window, which was to my advantage, but Bell faced the light, and there was a set to his lips and a glint in his gray eyes that assured me tuat ne al least was not de moralized. "Well,” said the Confederate lieuten ant, after my companion, with a flood of original and rather startling profanity, had declared that he was not ‘Tom Bell, the Yankee scout,’ but liis cousin, “I’ll have to allow that I’m mistaken, for a man ought to know himself, but I'd have been willing to bet against big odds that you are the Bell who has been raising hell with our people over round Bun combe.” “Look me over," said Bell, aud he drew himself up for inspection. “Now, do you uns think I look like a d—d fool?” The officers laughed and declared he appeared to bo as sensible and brave a man as they had ever met. "But if I was Tom Bell ot Buncombe and come a trapesing ovali heah, I’d be the cussedest fool God Almighty ever made. Torn Bell of Buncombe's my cousin, and that ain’t to his discredit; but up to the time ho joined the Yanks, no man ever dared to look him in the eye and say he was a fool or a coward; cowardice don’t run in tlie blood, whether we nns fight fo’ the Confed'racy or agin hit.” This and much more of the same kind Bell rolled off with an earnestness and vehemence that carried conviction with it My only fear was that ho would overdo the matter by protesting too much. The officer apologized for his mistake; one of the four produced a canteen and proposed that we drink to better acquaintance, which we did, but I felt that this was only a truce and that the best thing we could do was to shako the dust of Carnesville from our feet as soon as possible. After supper I pnqiosed a walk to Bell, I and we went down past the little court house, about which were drawn np ■cores of wagous that had come in with the tax in kind. I felt certain that we were being watched and that it would be courting death to go back to the tav ern. I knew some men in Chenowith's regiment, two sqnadrons of which were then in the town and others were expect ed before morning. If I were recognized, the suspicion already directed to Bell would become a certainty and we should be arrested and treated as spies. All this I explained to him, and he agreed with me that our only hope lay in getting away from Carnesville as speedily as possible. It was now night, with a half moon overhead, and we were in good condition for a twenty-four hours’ march. We had just passed the wagon camp when we heard a quick ■tep behind ns and a voice calliug out: “Hello,boys! Whar’s you uns off to?” I turned, expecting to see a man with a musket, but to our great relief our chal lenger was Sim Sleigh, the teamster, with whom I had ridden into town. This man had been so outspoken in his denun ciation of the Confederate authorities and so eager to have the war brought to an end and so very kind, that ou the im pulse of the moment I determined to take him into our confidence, so far as was consistent with the story we had al ready told him. 1 jointed out that the chances were that Bell and myself would be made prisoners if we returned to the tavern, and that while we had nothing to fear from an honest investigation, tlie result must be to us a great deal of un necessary hardship and useless trouble; then I asked for his advice. To our surprise Sim Sleigh told us that he had heard it hinted that we were spies, ■nd that he was hunting us up to tell us of the danger when he met us. Ho as sured us that he had unbounded faith in us, and that he had explained to others where and how he had picked us up, aud that it was through his urging we had come on to Carnesville. All this Sim Sleigh told us with all the emphasis that profanity could add to liis statement: then he gave us each a hand and said: “By G—d, I’ll see you uns through. Make fo’ old Habersham. Once you uns is in the hills of old Habersham, hit’ll be like home.” Acting on his advice, we sat down un der a treo beside tlie road, but within full sight of the camp tires in the court house square. It was a half hour, and a very anxious one, before Sim Sleigh returned, and then his appearance startled us, for he came silently from the rear, accompanied by another man. Each carried a Burnside carbine and belts plentifully supplied with ammuni tion. The arms and equipments had been purloined from two drunken troop ers, who were then “sleeping hit off’’ in one of tho wagons. “Hit’s a blazin pity I couldn’t hook a couple of critters foh you uns to ride off on,” explained Sleigh, “but by keepiu yer off eyes peeled you uns may be able to pick some up.” I objected to the arms aud was called “a d—d fool” for my pains. “What’s a man iu these hills iu these yar times without a gun?” asked Sim ■ Sleigh contemptuously; then answering his own question: \V y, he s helpless as a babv in colic time. No. sir-ee. you ' be, for the man who had done all the talking asked if we had any papers about us that would prove our statements. I had the forged furloughs in my ragged and much stained note book, and ■TV* / i these I handed to the man. He opened I them in a way that showed he was not accustomed to such work; then he sud I J denly handed them hack, and said: “You nns ken read?” I said we both had that accomplish- j ment. “Wa'al, read them papers, and if so I be it should turn out that you uns can't read ’em right, then it'd be a doggone light bettah if you uns wussn'i never bawn.” I read the furloughs exactly aa 1 had uns haz got to be heeled right smart if j written them, the men and the boy yer bound foh home. And let me say. i watching me the while like hawks. gents, them guns ain’t meant foh orna Then I had to explain my object in car ment by no manner o’ means.

This had an excellent effect. Si Kyle and his brother Mart last in tlie shop, that's all.” Sleigh gave us minute directions about j and his son Flint shook hands with us the roads as far as the Tallulah river in ; and promised to help ns through. We resumed our march with our the northern part of Habersham county, where, he assured us, we should find his strange allies, and about a mile beyond folks and a welcome. The two men ac the place of meeting we came to a bowl companied us about half a mile out on shaped valley, in the center of which the Walnut hill road, then advised us to 1 there was a cluster of log cabins. Here there was an extensive cornfield, and “cut dirt,” and we parted. It was about 9 o’clock when we start the cattle and mules grazing along the ed, and we knew that if we were missed i creek, with a number of tow headed pursuit would be made at once. We and nearly naked children watching fully realized what capture under the 1 them, showed that Mr. Si Kyle was circumstances meant, and we confirmed, more prosperous than the average with a strong hand clasp, tho resolution mountaineer. We were conducted into one of the “to die a fightin, but not to be took.” We were hurrying on at a double cabins and introduced to Mrs. Kyle, a quick, but had not gone a mile from the particularly gaunt woman, with very court house when we heard yelling away long, yellow teeth, and to her daughter, to the rear. We listened for a few min Sally, a wild eyed and rather pretty girl | utes; then came the pounding of gallop of sixteen, whose feet appeared to be as ing hoofs.

We handed that we should associate it with our- our guns and trappings to our host, and Mart Kyle, the brother, brought in a sel ves. To tho right of the road there was a rusty tin can full of vile smelling raw wood, and into this we plunged and con whisky and a gourd to drink it from.

As the horses swept by we and her daughter drinking with the could hear one of the men shouting out ready ease that comes of loug practice.

Before our supper of bread, bacon and returned to the road and hurried on iu the same direction, halting every half milk the gourd was again passed around, mile or so, while Bell placed his ear to aud to my surprise Si Kyle gave all the children a drink of whisky, explaining the ground to listen. Iu about an hour the soldiers came to me that “hit was the best thing in back at a walk, while we concealed our the world for worms;” then he asked a ! selves as Itefore. This time all doubts blessing. A majority of these moun as to their mission were set at rest by taineers are of Scotch-Irish descent, as the remarks which they shouted out as the names and physiognomies indicate, if all hands were deaf: “That Bell’s one and the asking of a blessing before meals of the damnedest scoundrels in the coun is simply the survival of an ancestral try.” “Ought to've strung ’em both up custom. It did not impress me as hav at once.” “Only think of letting’em walk ing any religious significance, for Mr. right out as if they owned the place."

We slung our carbines; then, each being already knew the ground we could cover provided with a pine knot torch, we on a forced march, and now we deter started out. About half a mile from the cabin we mined to exceed all our former efforts.

It was an American wedding, for the lace veil that Rose wore and which her great-grandmother had worn before her, was pinned on her head not only by stars and crescents of diamonds but by an American flag made of rubies, sap phires and diamonds, and which came from way across the water, bearing with it this message: “To the one Amer ican girl who taught me to honor all American women This comes from the man xvho as he could not win her will try for dear love's sake to win a woman like her." And as they came down the aisle of the church these two happy people, Rose and her lover, it seemed as if tho wed ding march sang that old, old song, “ 'Tis love, ’tis love that makes the world go round."
