The Dead OF '63.
From Pan Baren Local.

I.
In company with Cant Rnsa A..
Carter and Lee Kirkland. last Srnass. go
we visited the graves or two TTr;yys
soldiers who were buried IN fha De.,SIa
just north of town, fnow ona ~ ss.s
fields of Alex Carter's sarml in Ianm.0
| ry, 1863. They were under fha c.s,s.-
mand of General Davidsdh. who was
camped here in that year, but no nne
knows whether they were killed n I
skirmish hereabouts or came tO thar
death otherwise. Capt. Rose tells =.
the government has often written to
him concerning these two bodies with
view OF taking them up and remoy-
ing to the national cemetery. but ha
could never find any one who could ex-
actly locate them until he accidentally
mentioned the matter to Mr.. Carter
ana found that they were in his field 4
Few hundred yards from town. instead
or In the woods further north in which
he had spent 50 many hours in endeav.
orlng to find them. Mr.. G.. had rocks
piled on the graves to prevent the farm
hands from plowing over them. and
around these heaps dense thicket has
sprung up. Formerly and until few
years ago, large tree, with the name
company etc., of the sleeper, and date
or his death, stood beside each grave
but one Of them has entirely rotted
away, and the other has been blown
down with the inscription inclined to-
ward the earth. BY removing the
rocks and earth under one side Of the
log, however, we were enabled to de-
cipher the following inscription, which.
Ln0ugh written 22 years ago is still In N
Falr state of preservation.

many inquiries by the government
about them, it is hoped that steps will

remains where they will receive the
