Considerable lighting was carried on

one youth, a delicate boy who had
scarcely reached his fourteenth birthday,
the son of a prominent citizen OF Pow
hatan county.
His horse became disabled, and being
unfamiliar with the roads and the couu-
try generally, he became detached from
his comrades. and was taken BY the
Yankees, sent OFT TO Fort Deleware
where he languished and died. after
many month confinement.
Alas! poor child, uniting part,
Fate doomed, and with so soft heart
And from so slight as thine
The heart sickens adthe thought of the
many homes, and hearths made desolate,
by the many instances of this kind.
A Spartan mother indeed conld long
survive such a cruel stroke. but the
Southern women were simply human,
and succumbed as in the case of this
heartstricken parent, after vainly trying
for SO long to find where her boy was
incarcerated even
From the gray sire, whose trembling
hand
Could hardly buckle on his brand,
To the raw boy. whose shaft and bow
Were yet scarce terror to the crow

in the defence of the bridge, so impor-
lant to the Confederacy; for hourly
troops and provisions were being trans
ported to and from Richmond, via Dan
vile r. r. Companies of infantry sent
most timely to reinforce this militia
quiet, and never afterwards was the
place left without some garrison.
Our minds revert with pleasurable
emotions to the warm interest manifest
ed daily by the ladies of the neighbor-
hood who had opportunities of contrib
uting the traditional luxury, buttermilk,
and many homely products of the farm,
to the members of the 18th Georgia Bat
talon, and to the portion of the Sth
Virginia regiment who were stationed
there at different times during the war.
And tho, ''all things are fair in time of
war" (pillaging and rudenesses so com
mon with the enemy at the time, inclu
ded if we.may Judge by the experience Of
others no single instance of imposition
or reconsideration was known of having
occurred from these Southern gentlemen.
We escaped the many annoyances, at
the time of this raid, which many of our
near neighbors were subjected to, since
the Yankees could not reach the point
Of interest by the proposed route
and we felt very thankful that the bridge
