trade was half dozen flutes, an extra suit OF
clothes, and 60 in cash. He was kindly re-
ceived by his brother, whom he had not
seen since boyhood, and was offered a job in
the meat stall, but he declined this because
he had prediction for the fur trade, which
ho considered more profitable. Hence he

Browne soon saw his value and sent him out

making. During the war he was ordered by
his superior officer to seize mansion in
Georgia, which was supposed to contain
something contraband. An old negro
"mammay" warned him off, and he tells tho
sequel:
Without paying much attention to the old
womaus talk, stepped upon tho porch, and,
though she tried to dotain me. pushed her
aside and put one hand against the half
opened door, and received u shock that will
last my lifetime. Slam Tho door was
jerked wide open, and right against my check
was placed the muzzle of big navy revolver,
and as saw the trigger jerk and hammer
fall said my prayers very quickly, for
thought it was all M with me, IL was so sud-
denly, tell you, boys, when that hammer
fell with dull thud, and nothing happened
for second it kind of stunned me. Then |
grabbed the revolver, and for the first time
realized that ii was n girl that had tried SO
desperately to shoot me. She struggled vi
ciously, and / am afraid / hurt her little,
but | thought she might have better luck the
next shot, and was not quite
ready to die then. She was very pretty,
but she did hate Yankees, and some Of
the abuses she heaped upon me really stung
me, for hate to be abused by any woman,
and especially by pretty, high-bred, dainty
one as she was. But the abuse was not the
worst had barely secured the revolver
and freed her from my grasp, when she
! picked up pail Of dirty water, with which
the black woman had evidently be scrubbing,
and just doused me with it from head to foot
1t was horrible. Dirty, soapy water in my
| eyes, face, and beard, everywhere, all over
my uniform and trying to run down into my
| boots. And then the woman laughed at me
so scornfully that for few minutes, while
was getting clear of the mess, did not inter-
fere with the boys, who had made both
women prisoners. When l finally recovered
my temper l made plain statement of the
case to them. l told the young lady-Aliss
Honey, the woman called her-that while |
did not wish to harm them in the
least, they should both BIO kept prisoners
unless they promised not to make
any of us. They finally promised,
but would neither of them speak to any of us,
or do the slightest thing for US as long as we
were there. Two years after the war l was
down in that country buying lands for some
northern people. The place looked just the
same as when / was there before. Mr.. Temple
had returned from the war minus an arm,
and Honey was nursing him. Their slaves
were all gone except that same old woman,
and they were having hard rub to get along.
Temple had land wanted, and l bought it,
after taking my time about 1t, and Honey is
my wife now. Ipromise you follows that If any
of you raid my Dearborn avenue home now
you will receive much more gracious re-
ception than I did the day took possession
of that southern home.
