OF course at this season Of the
year Il young mans fancy lightly
turns to thoughts OF love, etc, but
that is no reason why he should not
'totc fair"
a reckless disregard of this IN
written law of loNc-making has
plunged Mr.. Crouch, Of Randolph,
Tenn, into the depths of humilia-
ton and woe. Mr.. Crouch by some
infrmity of his nature was unable
to keep his affections within bounds.
He became smittcn with the Misses
TcnplctOn, and in his tuSSCl with
Cupid vas knocked silly in II first
round.
The two sisters were unaware of
the double dealing of their lover
until they found that he was en-
gagged to 10th. Then there was a
display of decorating and coruS-
eating fireworks i'm tlie TcmplctCn
mansion that beat anything ever
witnessed within those dccorous
walls. Old man Tcmplcton held an
executive session with himself, ard
taking his trusty shotgun raidcd
Crouchc'S bailiwick and captured
the youngstcr. He marched his
prisoner before him to the Temple
ton residence, where he turned him
into the presence of the indignant
sisters.
The Misses Tcmplcton acted
with II neatncss and dispatch wor-
thy of the emergency. Theylockcd
the door and demanded an eXpla-
nation. The hang-dog faced Ro-
mco wiltcd. The young ladies
then proceeded to test the virtues
Of a horse-whip. Mr.. Crouch at
this juncturc recoliected an en-
gagcmcnt elsewhere, and unccre-
m~oniously took his departure, car
rying the window sash with him.
He had no particular use for the
sash, but as it seemed to come
handy he took il along,
Two days later the Randolp pa
pers announced the marriage OF
Mr.. Crouch to one of the spirited
heroines concerned in the affair
All is we'll that ends we'll.

During the war the "laSt man"
and "laSt ditch" were commonp hra-
scS, and, strange as it may sccm,
slys an exchange, they were loca-
ted at the end Of the war. On
Fourth of July morning, 1866, tif-
teen months after Lees surrender,
the secretary Of war, who had plan
ned Il fishing excursion to the falls
of the Potomac, received tClcgam
from the provost marShalS at Rich
mond, Va, stating that a >qurl
of Confederate soldiers were at his
office ready to dclivcrup their rnl
and be amncSticd. Knowing that
Joking of that description would
subject the pCrpctrator to court-
martial, he made IL bee line to the
White House to consult President
Johnson, which resulted in II trle-
| gram to the provost marshal: "Who
are they and where did they come
ftom ?" The answer was direct to
the point: Segcant TeWksbury and
| guard from Dismal Swamp. Did
not know the war was over" After
II good roar Of laughter the provost
marshal was ordered to receive
their capitulation.
Tewkabury, II Nirgian, ordered a
couple of GGorgians to come for
ward, give up their shooting-irons
and stick their FISTS to the "docy-
ment," resolving himself as the
last man and old Dismal
Swamp the last ditch. Tcwksbury's
description Of how he ascertaincd
the war was over was amusing,
He and his companions had been
posted on the edge of the swamp
to watch movements of Hanks from
Norfolk, with orders to remain ur.
til relieved. He never was relieV.
ed, and had subsistcd on game and
fish for three years. He met al
old negro who told him that the
war had been over about a year
which tickled him better than if Inc
had been kicked by IL mule, az ht
facctiously expressed it.
