-Four days before I went to the front
with my regiment we had little girl
baby. She is now grown, and you all
ways see her with me at any social
gathering, Well, in our army the
furlOughs came very rarely. When
we got into line there was no great
chance for man to get home. 1t was
about three years afterward that few
of us were one night going down the
Mississippi on river steamer. | had
been sick and was returning to my
command, but pretty well broken up
even then. As for money, we did not
have any, and the night was hot as l
laid down on the deck, my throat al
most parched with thirst. Pretty soon
little girl came along with a big
glass of lemonade. tell you it look

it, stopped minute. looked doubtful
ly at me, and finally came up to my
side. "You looked as if you wanted
something to drink, she said, and of.
fered me the glass. 1t wasn't quite
the square thing to do, but l took il
and handed it back to her empty. 1t
was like nectar to me. Then | thank.
ed the little creature and sent her
away. Soon after, just like every
child, she came back, leadidg her
mother to see the poor soldier BY
Jupiter, it was my wife, and the girl
was the baby whom | had last seen a
baby but just born. You can imagine
the reunion. They were with my
brothers family, and just happened tC
be going down the river. That was
the only time during the four years
fighting that l saw my wife and baby
and under these circumstances what
man would ever forget it?
