No Use for Guards.

In the spring OF 1862 when
Sheridan's cavalry moved up the
Shenandoah Valley to have last
wrestle with Early's troopers, a
halt was made by portion OF the
Union force near Waynesboro'.
Guards were thrown ont TO protect
property, and, among others the
house of lone and aged widow
received such protection. Two
dismounted cavalry-men were sta
toned at the front door and it was
half an hour or so before any stir
IN or around the house gave token
that 1t was Inhabited. Then the
widow limped to the door on a
crutrh and called one OF the
guards to her and asked:
"What are you doing hereW
ave are guards to protect you
and your property" was the re-
ply.
"Wel', you needn't fool away any
time here. Early he come and he
took our hay. Then Sheridan
come and took our corn. Then
Mosby he stole our hams and 'ta-
ters. Then Sheridan took our
fionr and cider. Then Early run
off all our horses. All had left
