A Thrilling War Incident.
DUEL BETWEEN FEDERAL AND CoNFEDER-
ATE COMMANDERS.

A Confederate surgeon writes to Chica-
go paper:
On the 10Th day of June 1861 witnessed
a duel between Captain Jones, command
ing Federal scout, and Capt. Fry, COM
manding rebel scout, in Greene county,
East Tennessee. These two men had been
fighting each other for six months, with the
fortunes of battle in favor of one and then
the other. Their commands were encamped
on either side of Lick creek, large and
sluggish stream, too deep to ford and too
| shallow for ferry boat but there q bridge
spanncd the stream for the convenience of
the travelling public. Each of them guard
| ed this bridge, that communication should
go neither north nor south, as the railroad
track had been broken up months before.
After fighting each other for several months,
and contesting the point as to which should
| hold the bridge, they agreed to fight a duel,
the conqueror to hold the bridge undisputed
for the time being. Jones gave the chal-
lenge, and Fry accepted The terms We're
that they should fight with navy pistols at
twenty yards apart, deliberately walking
toward each other and firing until the last
chamber of their pistols was discharged, Jun
less one or the other fell before all the dis
charges were made. They chose their sec.
onds, and agreed upon a rebel surgeon (as
he was the only one in either command) to
attend them in case Of danger. Jones was
certainly finelooking fellow, with light
hair and blue eyes, five feet ten inches in
height, looking every inch the military
chicitain. He was man that soldiers
would admire and ladies regard with admira-
ton, ! never saw Il man more cool, de-
termined and heroic under such creum-
stances. have read of the deeds of ofchivalry
and knight errantry in the middle ages, and
of brave men embalmcd in modern poesy,
but when | saw this man Jones come to the
duelists' scratch, fighting, not for real or
supposed wrongs to himself, but as he
honestly thought for his country and the
glory of the flag, | could not help admiring
the man, Notwithstanding he fought for the
freedom of the negro, which was opposed
to. Fry was a man full six feet high, slend-
er, with long, wavy, curling hair, jet blacl;
eyes, wearing slouch hat and gray suit,aud
looking rather the demon than the man.
There was nothing ieroeou- about him; but
he bad that selt.suiicieut nouchalance that
said, II will kill you" Without doubt ha
was brave, cool and collected, and, although
suffering from terrible flesh wound in biz
left arm, received a week before, he mani.
Tested no symptoms Of distress, but seemed
ready for tie fight. The ground WAS stcppcl

have n smiling face, sho said,
have lest for all meet,
have a garland for my head
And all It's flowers are sweet
And so you call me gay, she said.
Grief taught mo this smile, she said,
And wrong did teach me this testing bold.
These flowers were pluckcd from garden-bed
While death chino was tolled;
And what now will you say b.? she said.
Behind no prison gate, she said,
Which slurs sunshine half mile
Live captiyes so uncontrolled
As souls behind smile;
Gods pity let us pray, she said
know my face is bright, she said
Such brightness dying suns dinusc,
bear upon my forehead shed
Tho sign OF what lose
The ending of my day. she said
II l dared leave this smile, she said,
And take moan upon my mouth
And tie cypress round my head,
And let my tears rllr smooth
1t were the happier way, she said.
And since that must not be, she said,
fain your bitter world would leave.
How calmly, calmly. smile the dead
Why do you not, therefore, grieve
The yea OF heaven Is yea, she said.
But In your bitter world, she said,
Face joys 4 costly mask to wear,
IT'S bought with pangs long nourished,
And rounded to despair
Griefs earnest makes lifes play, sno said.
Ye weep for those who weep? she said
All, fools! l bid you pass them by,
Go weep for those whose hearts have bled
What time their eyes were dry.
Whom sadder can say? she said.

off by the seconds, pistols loaded and ex-
changed, and the principals brought face to
face. shall never forget that meeting.
Jones, in his military, boyish mood, as they
shook hands, remarked that
A soldier braves death for a fanciful wreath.
When in glory's romantic career
Fry caught up the rest of the sentence,
and answered by saying
Yet he bends DER the foe when In battle laid low.
And bathes every wound with tear.
They turned around and walked back to
the point designated. Jones' second had
the word"fre," and he slowly said "One-
two--three-fre" They simultaneously
turned at the word "one," and instantly
fired. Neither was hurt They cooked their
pistols and deliberately walked toward each
other, firing as they went. At the fifth shot
Jones threw up his right hand, and, firing
his pistol in the air, sank down. Fry was
in the act of firing his last shot, but seeing
Jones fall, silently lowered his pistol,
dropped it to the ground, and sPrang to
Jones side, taking his head in his lap as he
set down, and asked him if he was hurt. L
discovered that Jones was shot through the
stomach, the bullet glancing around that
region, and coming out to the left of the
spinal column; beside, he had received three
other frightful flesh wounds in other portions
of his body. l dressed his wounds aud gave
him such stimulants as L had. He afterward
got WELL Fry received three wounds-one
breaking his left arm, one in the leg and the
other in the right side. After months Of
suffering, he got well. Neither of them
asked for discharge, but both resumed their
places as soon as they recovered, and they
fought the war out to the bitter end, and to-
day are partners in wholesale grocery
business, and verifying the sentiment of By
ron that "a soldier braves DEATH" &c.
