guns and flags, tumbled over each
other at least two hundred yards down
the spur before they paused to take
breath Then they rolled down three
hundred yards, when, feeling them
selves out of harms way, they began to
count their bruises and scratches, and
then, the ludicrous plight they were
in striking them, they burst into
laughter.
Meanwhile Lieutenant A. was led to
a skiff on the bank of the river, rOwed
across, and successfully interviewed by
the officer in command Of the nearest
Confederate camp. The next day an
officer bearing a flag Of truce APP
preached our lines, and the Lieuten-
ants trunk was sent to him, with few
creature comforts designed to console
him in the hour of misfOrtunes.
His messmate, Lieutenant j., in
sisted that it was "all his own fault.
If he had not persisted In signaling at
night, where there was no necessity for
it, he would not have been captured.
Lieutenant A. was a prisoner about
four months. When he was exchanged
doubtless the information he was able
to give the people at Washington was
some compensation for his enforced in
activity.
The capture was easily accomplished.
The COnfederates across the river, see
ing the movements of the torch on the
mOuntain-top, made a detour after
crossing the river a little distance
above our picket lines. The guard
first established to protect the station
numbered hundreds. Then the seem
ing security caused the signal officers
| to reduce the number of men, until the
! guard consisted of twenty men and a
nOn-commissioned officer, which was
divided into four reliefs.-C Chicago

and on arrival at Augusta We learned
that Beacon, whose grave We dug and
whose coffin we buried, was not dead,
but desperately wounded and in the
hands Of the enemy, and in due time
recovered, was paroIed, and returned
to his company for duty. He lived to
serve out his three years, and on offer
ing to re-enlist was rejected. I met
him several times after the war, and
when I last heard from him he was
Clerk of Court in the State Of Kansas.
He is the only man of my acqUaint-
ance who was shot according to mill
tary orders, had his coffin made, and
his grave dug according to orders, and
yet lived to laugh at the whole matter.
Truly, truth Is stranger than fiction. "
