A Story Of the Rebellion.
Redacld'. Letter to Cincinnati Commsrci

RedAcldr Letter to Cincinnati Commercial.
Gen. Harry White, of Pennsylvania,
tells me of an incident, which | repeat,
not from any disposition to stir ND nm
pleasant memories, or add to the stock
of bloody shirts. bat because it is one
of the unwritten little incidents of the
great Civil War. After his attempt to
escape, disguised MS a surgeon, he was
placed in solitary confinement at Rich
mond. He was in darkness and gloom,
and began to despair Of regaining his
own liberty, or living to see the success
Of the Federal arms. Yet he received
encouragement from an unexpected
quarter. BY digging little hole he
communicated with the occupant of
the adjoining cell. "Who are YOU ?" he
asked. "A Tennessee Union mar" was
the reply. Then the Tennesseean told
his story. He pilotcd a company of
Union men through the mountains to
Camp Dick Robinson. in Kentucky,
where they entered the army. He went
back for more. He ventured to sleep
at home one night. The conscript-
hunters surrounded his house at day
light. He fled out of the back door.
Headed OIL, he returned to the house,
the soldiers closing in on him all around.
His wife ran out crying to him to sur
render. He would not, but went for
his gun. The soldiers fired. The bull
lets missed him, but his wife fell dead
in his arms. He was hurried away leav-
ing her lying there; no time for burial,
no time for tears, no time to kneel and
see If the spark Of life was really gone.
Yet this plain man from the mountains
Of Tennessee, with no one to herald his
heroism or mourn for him if he died
in the dungeon, spoke words Of encour-
agement to the Responding Federal
General. He said: General, we must
not give up this fight for the Union UNI
der forty years yet
