upon them and surprised them in
their beds. That company was un.
der the command of young Daily,
whose father was proprietor Of the
old hotel at Oakland, some sixty
miles further westward on the line
of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad.
1t was junior Daily's Intimate knowl-
edge of the surrounding country that
had enabled him to make the raid
over the mountain paths. Before
day had dawned he was riding away
with the prisoners. He made straight
for the hotel at Oakland, which was
then Within the Confederate lines,
proposing to keep his captives there
until he might have chance to fow-
ard them toa Southern prison. But
at the hotel were his sisters, Misses
Mary and Fanny Daily, two bloom.
ing beauties, whose loveliness had
been nourished by the mountain air
and the trout. yeniSon and wafnes for
which the hosiery was famous. Gem
eral Crook and his staff suberdiaates
were given liberty under parole, and
he and Miss Mary Daily soon found
themselves drifting into the safe hor-
Dor of mutual affection. This was all
the more remarkable because Miss
Daily was as fierce a Confederate as
her brother, but love in this case
conquered the war enmities, and
when she and General Crook parted
1t was with the understanding that
they would meet again and would be
married. The promise was faith
fully kept, and the wedding t1ok
place soon after the conclusion Of
h0stiities. In the quarter of a GEN.
tury that has elapsed since then she
had been his constant compaion to
the day of his death. Most of his
service in those twenty-five years
had been on the frontier and occupied
with fighting Indians, but there were
none of his campaigns from which
she was absent. Her courage was
equal to that of any veteran, and
gentleWoman as she is, there were
no perils from which she would
finch. Her husband was as proud
or her as she was of him, aud during
the intervals of frontier service, when
they visited Washington. she was a
center Of observation and praise.
