of the craven of their comrades who

hnd told their stories many a time, but
eaeb listened to the other with much
of the original Interest nnd a respect
that hnd crown with years. This H

EB WAS SO 8TCrn IT WAS 1MPOHSIBLK TO
QLT ANVTHIMl OUT OK HIM
of the general and his staff. Cue moru
ing an otlicer of a picket post sent to
beaiiijuarters a country bumpkin wlio
had driven his cow rixbt up to our
lino. The Keiierul askeii him why he
bucked up against an army with uo
better support than u cow, und he suid
he bud bail his cow iu pasture down
below and didn't know our men were
there. He was questioned about the
Confederate forces In the retfon from
whence he had come, but he wan so
stupid that it was Impossible tu Eft
anything out of him As to numbers.
It wa.s always "a tieap o' horse sobers."
or "ri'ht smart o cannons." or "11 t nil
regiment o walkin' meu " The general
soon Kave over uestionltiK him and
issued orders that he be permitted to
drive bis cow on homeward.
Two or three days Inter, while talk
ins with one of the aids, he told me
that a circular order hnd been sent out
from general headquarters for nil coin
mnnders to look out for a spy who had
first appeared driving a cow. pretend
inc to have got confused without the
picket line. A few hours later a man in
Federal uniform hnd been picked up
by the provost guard for being absent
from his command without n pass
While Inquiries were being made about
him he bad given the guard the slip
nnd hnd disappeared At our head
quarters we wondered If the country
mini we had passed nnd this straggler
were not one nnd the same man
While we were talking utiout It a
telegram came In from the left of our
command stating that a man wlio was
trying to steal through our picket line
to go smith had been tired on. nut had
disappeared in n wood thick with tan
gled undergrowth The otlicer of the
post sent u sergeant with twelve men
into the wood, who deployed to cover
the ground und swept out every live
thing there A man wus seen run
ning to a small village, or, rattier, a
clump of houses, hnlf a mile distant,
and before be could be captured had
disappeared among 11 group of a tew
men, more women and a lot ot etui
dren When our men got there tliey
couldn't tell which ot the men iney
had chased The sergeant sent a pri
vate to report the matter to the otli
cer of the ticket post, while the others
surrounded the people so that none ot
them should net away The otlicer re
ported the situation to the general, atid
the general sent for me.
After going over all this that I've
been telling you tiie general told hie
to go over with part of the escort and
exercise my Ingenuity to discover the
man who had tried to steal through
the picket line. "A spy." be said, "has
undoubtedly been moving about our
camps collecting information and is
trying to get south with It I rely on
you to Hnd out which one ot these peo

Considering that it would 1st do use
to question the women, I concluded to
adopt the general's suggestion. I stood
the men In line, ordered the sergeant j
to draw lu his command and assemble
them for a tiring squad. When the
two lines faced each other I told the
citlccua that If they tlidu't glv up the
niau who bad heeu chased In among
them I would shoot every one of thetu. I
Of course 1 only did It to effect uy I
purpose, for 1 had no ordcra to carry
out the threat and wouldn't hare been I
so Inhuman as to do so If 1 hnd. I
They all turned white, but not a man
spoke I gave (he word to the sqund !
to aim, and yet uo one flinched. I was ;
about to Rive up my bluff name-when
a window sash In one of t tie houses
went up aud a man put bis bead out ,
of the window.
"Don't shoot, cap'n." be said "I'm ,
your man." i
Delighted at the result of my e-
j pedlent, I turned my firing squad over ;
I to me sergenui sou sent me iwo men j
I hnd brought with me to arrest the i
I man n-hn lltlil roll f ftMMitlt It nroviwl
to be very young sea rccly eighteen. I j
sea l tied his face with a view to dis
cover if he were the fellow who had
driven the in, but saw no resem- j
blance. though 1 did not consider this
of Importance, for he had probably
been made up for every character he
bad played.
I searched him, but. Oudlug no pa
pers, directed the men to search every
bouse lu the place. I was not sur
prised that they fqund nothing, for
there had been pleuty of time to urn
any paers he might hnv carried.
Not finding any documentary evidence.
I took til in to headquarters.
lie was the pluckiest young fellow
I ever saw. The general questioned
blm and cross questioned til m, but
could get nothing out of blm Asked,
if be was the man who drove the cow. 1
he said "No." lie also denied that be j
was the man tn Federal uniform who
bad eluded the provost guard. All he j
would admit was that be was tbe man I
wbo hnd been chased by the pickets
out of the wood and into the village.
Well, the case was reortcd to gen ,
eral headquarters vlth the expectation j
that we would tie ordered to send j
the spy there. No such order came I
No general likes hanging a spy. and
they didn't propose to do It further up j
when they could shove It en to us be
low. That s one of the benellts of high '
rank. We were oniereii to try the
youngster by iliiih'hciid court martini
and hang him m mi. e He i con

No one believed this story told by a
man as a last resort to save his life,
and preparations were made for the
execution next morning About mid
night a telegram canie from general
headquarters countermanding the or

wns suspected, searched and full lu
formation found upon him concerning
the strength, equipment, etc., of our
corps d'armee He was to be eiecuted
at once aud had confirmed tbe story
of the young man Dow In our hands.
I never suw a more relieved, a hap

After the wur I went south to find
