A man mover appreciates hts want OF
power or realizes how utterly helpless 1t
Is possible for him to become so much
as when he tries to check tho low OF a
beautiful woman's tears. by an effort
of will, rather than because of my we'll
meant attempt to pacify her, Carrie
Brent brushed the tears from herchoeks,
and, springing to her feet, cried out In q
voice full Of pleading and passion:
"Oh, Captain Watts, save my brother!
Do not lot your people become his MUIR
derers,''
Feeling that 1t would be cruel to re-
peat to her what General Boyle had
told me or to assure her Of my own ina
bility to assist her, said, vaguely:
"For your sake and your mothers, as
well as in tho interest of humanity, you
may depend on my doing every thing in
my power for your brother. But should
like to ask what you know about his
case"
II can tell you Franks story as he
told it to mo, and never knew him to
lie," sho replied.
'Is it not true that Frank was in cit
liens drcss when captured?" asked.

/ was very sure that the officers who
tried Frank Brent were not influenced
in their vexdict by the fact of his not
being in uniform.
''His command" said, sis reported
to be down near Cumberland Gap. How
does he explain his being two hundred
miles away from it and within our lines
when captured?'
81 will conccde that he was rash in
coming into this part Of the State as he
did," she answered promptly; but his
purpose was not to play the spy"
"What then was his purpose?'
"You know Miss Matte Vernon and
her FAMILY at VersallleS?
"Yes, very we'll"
"And you may have heard that since
even before the trouble Frank has been
devoted to her?"
had heard something Of this, but
1 also knew that Miss Vernon and her
family were in favor of tho Union and
that it was generally believed that she
was engaged to Howard Scott, young
Kentuckian then on General Carriers
staff; so simply nodded in response to
Carries question.
Learning that Mattio Vernon was
very ILL.,, she continued. Frank, in the
hope OF seeing her, was making his way
through to Versailles when he was capt
ured; then, to make sure Of convicting
him, they charged him with murder
that was committed whom he was away
with his command in East Tennessee"
This, of course, was her brothers
story. and she, at least, believed it as II
it were Holy Writ.
Asking her to remain where she was
for the present, l secured pass from
the provost marshal and went down to

house in which the condemned man was
confined.

The boy was we'll mounted, and his

my fathers house was the fine blue
grass farm of the Widow Brent, the
black boys mistress and the mother of
Miss Carrie Brent, whose remarkable
