Dear Sir--In your paper Of tn,day, you
publish AN account Of u certain flag, lately

the "l3utte Ilag" Of the lst Va. Cavalry,
preserved by Sergeant Zimmerman, of the
| l4th Louisiana lnIantry. III the lust charge Ut
Abpomn,tox G. H., when its capture ap.

Having had the honor of commanding the
"lst Va. Cavalry" most of tho timo during

The remnant Of once proud snd beautiful

motto, "Sic Semper Tymnuis" in field of
blpe merinu with its silver fringe and tusscl,
It emblem Of glorious Virginia in 1861, alas

shot away and only the re.nuant now send

IIpl of the regiment, (COl. Drake, to give it
to me, which he did, aud have hul it over

ano,her State flag.
Gen. Stewart afterwards presented my rcgi.
ment with a Battle Gag, the memorable ''Stnrs
and Bars" Mt that time the OnIy flag used in
our army, and selected Sergeant Payne of
o. 10" from Rockbridge county-a soldier
of iine character, entirely Trustworthy, and of
updoubted courage, US my color Sergeant, and
Joubtles, no has the flag now, preserving it
as memcn,o Of the regiment, he served so
long and so faithfully.
IS to the danger Of its capture at Apo
mottor I know il surely a mistake. The
cnynIry charge referred to, was the very hlst
