"Old Jacks

The following afiifea1csddoijte ) IS told by
General Lindsay. WalkeEs..
1t was the battle of Cedar Noun
tain. I commanded a regiment of
artillery then, and worked my guns
until the metal:yas almost too hot
TO hold the charge. There was a
fearful infantry fight going,on, and
one of our divisieas @as hroken all
to pieces ny an overwhelming on
set of the Yankees, who had thrown
a heavy force on. onr front and
flank. Seeing tie disorder I left
my guns aDd'tfIFe VERY self in front
of the retreating division and
strove to rally them,:and I was I'M
ploriDg, cemInaAdipg, and cqrSing
especially; fo,sAtsl rate. just
then I felt ashapd on my shoulder.

ceived GeferaRJsessson., Knowing
his horror of profane language l

can never forget him. One hand
on my she4lder,ator we were both
mounted, the other raised as if in
prayer, instead of a reproAf lbs l ex.
pected, lie simply said 4..Ibat's it,
Colonel; send them up!'
The next morning, after the bat
tie, Gen. A. P. Hill called ms to
visit Old Jack OH military bust
ness. begged to beexcused from
the duty, aRtlete}fa ssesssA. r.. Hill
the reason; he; only. laughed in his
quiet manner, and. ordered me to
come on. 1 went with him. feeling
as mean as.asttgg Wits, a tin pan
tied to bis tail. On reaching his
tent Jackson receWed US cordially,
and made no mention of yester-
days doing, but I opened athe
subject by saying:
General, | want to apologize to
you for my condnct yesterday.
You owe me no apology, he said;
on the contrary, | am greatly in
,lebred to you for your assistance
in rallying my troops.
But do apologize, ] said, for l
nsed language in your presence, not
only unbecomIng an officer. but
certainly wrong IN I. Christian gen.
tleman.
Old Jack passed the matter over.
But, l am sorry for it, General;
but my case is something similar
to my old coloredman Charles, whom
I owned before the war. He
was a splendid steer driver, and
drove my OK team. One day, shcrt-
ly after a big religious revival,
Charles came to me and asked to
be transferred and lowered into a
common field hand. / asked him
what he meant. Gaze am baptis-
ed. he replied. Why, What the de
vii has baptism got to do with you
driving my OK teamg i asked.
Then he said, its got heap to d }
with it, Marse Linsey; dem oxen
don't understand nothing but Gus
siu' and swearing. And then be add
ell in a tone that carried conviction
to my mind, "Marse Linsay. no mig
ger can drive u pair listers and
serve his Lord at the same timer

and serve my Maker too
