"The most odious part ofthe ceremony

services OF Gen. Taylor. we. Are. A;a.lehs-
ed 10 Inc Nashville 0nhoPolitan. Gen.
Taylor is kenluckiaa by birth, and is
said to have been born in 1890, which
would make him Sc years OF age. Ac.
cording to the 0rthopolilsn, he entered
The army in 1908, Immediately after the
attack on the Chesapeake, and has been
in the service Of his country from tina,
time to the present. Having entered the
army as lieutenant Of infantry, he had
risen to the command Of a company, al
the beginning Of the las. war.
For his gallan. defence of Fort Harri.
son on the 4ih September 1912, president
Madison conferred upon him the brevet
rank of major, and he is now the oldest
breve, in the army. 10 1892 he became
the colonel Of the 9th infantry; with this
regiment he went to Florida in 1896,
where he was always foremost in dan.

0n,he 25th December, 1896, Col. Tay.
lor, at the head of a detachment Of about
SO men, composed of the parts of the
let, 4th and 9Th regiments Of u. States
infantry, and some Missouri, volunteers
met about 700 Indians, under Alligator,
Sam Jones, and Coa.coo-che, on the banks
of the G-ke-cho-bee. w. @@s FL
This battle was sought BY the Indians,
for the day before the engagement, Col.
Tsyler received a challenge from Alliga-
tor, telling him where TO find him, and
baniering him 10 come on. Col. Taylor
desiring nothing better, Immediately push.
ed on at a rapid march 10 the expected
battle-ground, fearful tina. the willy Indi-
an might change his purpose. The In
dams had strong position in a thick
swamp, covered in front by small stream,
whose ,quicksands rendered j. almost i'm.
passible, but Col Taylor pushed through
the quicksands and swamps in the face Of
deadly fire from concealed foe, driving
the Indians before him. ii 81
The action was long and severe. The
Indians yielding the ground inch by inch,
and then only at the point of the bayonet.
After three hours bloody contest the In.
dams were routed and pursued with great,
slaughter, until night. This was the last
stand the Indians ever made, in, u large
body, and the only instance in which they
voluntarily gave battle. Though, Col.
Taylor won the day, j, was at the ex-
pense Of l39 killed and wounded--more
than one fourth of The whole force. Two
colonies, (Col. Thompson of the 9th in.
ian,ry, and Col. Gentry Of the Missouri
volunteers fell at the head of the troops.
Capt. Vanswearingen and Lieuls. Brooke
and carrier also fell in the engagement. u
During the whole of the engagement,
Col. Taylor remained on horseback, pass
ing from point to point, cheering his men
to the conflict, and exposed to the Indian
rifle at every moment. ss
For this batle, Mr.. Poinsett, secretary
Of war, rendered merited praise TO all en-
gagged, in his communication in Congress.
