Hanging of David s. .cfeigh by
Gen. David Hunter.

In connection with the notice of
the destE Of Gen. Hunter. and his
raid up tlie Valley. and the. hanging
of Mr.. David S. creigH! the Rock
bridge County Neses says: -sa
But the most fiendish set 81 the
eipe6itiou was the hanging, on Himsy
prete&t. in Rockhridge county, of Mr.:
David S. !Creigf, an excellent and
honorable man, one Of the most proth-
inent and devoted members OF. the
Presbyterian church in Leyisburg,
of which the weli-remsmbered Rev.
DR.. McElhany was so long the pastor.
Mr.. Creigh also held different posi-
tions of trust in his county, in which
no man bad higher standing. The
story of Hunters crime is brief! Mr.
CreiglI, being beyond the ass Tor
service in the army, Was residing on
his farm at the time OF his arrest. a
short time before a camp-folIower of
the Federal army came to his house
intent on plundcr, and after forcibly
entering several rooms, was about TO
continue his search, when he was
forbidden to open the door of \ room
in which, as he was informed. lady
member of the family lay sick. Re,
gartlless of protestatious, he persisted
in making his way furthet;, whet Mr.
Creigh sttenfted, to Stop him. =. A
desperate struggle =, ensued, Mt.
Creigh was unarmed when they Crap
pied, but he saved his life by taking
that of the ruffian with an AK, that was
handed him by old Aunt Sally a
family servant. The. hostility. be-
tween the Southern people and the
Federal soldicry being bitter at the
time, it Vas deemed best to hide the
deed. 1t is said thSt, i .wtite man
who had learned tue fact commune
Gated it to a negro, who some timo
afterwards ran away to the Federal
army and disclosed the secret. When
the Federal army next passed through
Greenbrier Mr.. Creigh was arrested
and taken to Rockbridge county
He was given no opportunity, for de!
fence, but was banged hy Hunters
order. That Bfr. Creigh had slain
the invader of his home. and the
assailant of his life was not, sufficient
to weigh in his favor. Thus was
this good and upright man made the
victim of military-rather say un-
militarY-brutality, i..., r. -
"It is related by the late Col, B.
II. Jones, in his work, Prison Press
and Poetry that Federal chapiaitii
passing through Lewisburg soon after
the tragic death of this unfortunate
man, and calling at the house OF Rey,
DR.. McEihany, was invited to remain
to dinner, but refused to do so, say
ing, with much feeling, that he could
not break bread in a Southern
house since the murder of David 8.

MISCELLANEOUS.
An Incident of the War.

Col,, Wm. W. BIackford. of the
First Regiment of Engineer Troops,
Army of Northern Virginia, formerly
member of the staff Of Gen. j. E. B.
Stuart) furnishes to. the thirteenth
volume of the SoNther, Historical
Pdpers, recently issued; the. following
account witnessed by him on the 9th
of April, 1868:
During large part of the day of
the surrender at tAppomattox, General
Lee and his staff remained in an apple
orchard near the, village. The road
from this orchard to army headquar-
ters lay through little YatEey, apd
upon the hills on either side consid-
erable portion of OUR force were en-
camped.
After arranging the details of
the surrender, Lee mounted his horse
to return to his quarters. Always an
imposing figure, his appearance that
day was particularly noble and strik-
ing in the full dress uniform he had
put on, with sword and sash. He
rode his favorite horse, Traveller, n
superb iron gray, SO well known in
the army, and his seat in the saddle
was the perfection of firmness and
manly grace.
One of Travellers pecuIiarities was
that when the troops cheered his
master, as they invariably did when
he passed, the animal appeared to
appreciate the compliment as paid in
part to himself. and would toss his
head Mt every shout. The men rel
ished the Joke so much that they
sometimesrepeated their cheers to see
the horse bow to them, as they called
it. Upon this occasion, when their
great commander appeared, the men
came trimming down to the road along
which he was approaching, and. the
writer. seeing that something of in
terest was about to happen, mounted
his horse and followed. In few mo-
ments wall of men had formed on
each side of the road as far as the eye
could reach. At first they began
cheering as he passed, and Traveller
tossed his head at almost every step.
but presently sobs mingled with the
cheers, and, before half the distance
was passed, choked all other utter
ance.
'TakiHg off their hats reverentIy.
they abandoned all attempt at control
over their feelings, and grim, bearded
veterans wept aloud. General Off
GERS, who had followed the men to the
road, sat on their horses, hat In hand,
with tears streaming from their eyes.
Many words of affection and symPa-
thy were heard. One man, extending
both arms with an impressive gesture,
said, love you just as we'll as ever,
Gen. Lee After he had passed.
many, throwing themselves on the
grouud, covered their faces and cried
like children.
Gen. Lee rode the whole distance
with his bat in his hand. and with
tears trickting down his cheeks. No
one who was present csa ever forget
| the scene"
