brought from the North, and there was
always n large portion Of each regi-
ment dismounted for lack of horses.
| got to thinking about the matter,
and one day when I was at headuuar-
ters the subject of cavalry came up. /
said to Rosecrans:
I've got colonel in my division
that is always aci g for something to
do and his mon are Just like him.
They are never happy when they're
out of a job, and it puzzles me
like anything, sometimes, to keep
them busy. ] wish you'd let me mount
them as cavalry.
But we haven't the horses said
Rosecrnns.
That needn't bother YOU / re-
piled. You Just allow me to make n
reluisition for cavalry equipments, and
I'll not only mount the regiment but
the whole brigade
How are you going to do it, Rey-
nolds?' persisted Rosecrans.
That doesn't matter / answered.
You just gi,e me permission and the
requisition for tho equipments, and I'll
take care or the rest.
After little more talk got the per-
mission ont of Rosecrans, and hurried
over to Wilder's camp, who was over
loved at the news. So were his men.
| knew they would be all right. They
had all been born and brought up
among horses, and were as much at
home in the saddle us most men are in

better material for cavalry. We had
around headquarters then a lot Of
Stokes East Tcnncssolns q valuable
lot of fellows, devoutly loyal, good
fighters, and who knew all about the
country. | told Wilder to go ahead
with his scheme, and he disappeared
from camp alone with Stokes men and

They had gathered up more than

| went back to Rosecraus and talked

lim to come out to the front of his

some dared not; but there was one
loyal Lady, Mrs. Delaney, who freely
gave n slice of bread ard butter and
glass of milk so long as her little store
held out This was at IL great personal
risk to herself from the rebel element,
who would peroecute her when the
troops departed. Comrade John Balls

are three other comrades besides HIM
self who were with him, who will never
forget her Kindness, viz John Bresna-
han, of Wa ,hington, ID. O.: a. IL.

who will doubtless remember it. A few
days ago Comrade Baisley was sur
prised to receive the following letter
MARrINsBURG, w. Va.
Mr.. j. Balsley. Seymour, Ind.
RESPECTED SIR:-NOu will no doubt be
surprised to receive Il letter from me, whom
YOU have never seen, but, when you learn
who am, YOU will doubtless remember the
circumstances Lam writing to You in be-
half of my mother, whom Mr.. Bresnahan
recognized as the person who gave you and
him and others the bread and milk on
Banks retreat in 1862. She IS anxious that
each of YOU may have her picture You

mother fed on that day. and at other
times who have taken the trouble to ma
her She is so years old and failing very
fast MY father is dead and / maintain the

will send you the picture by mail
MISS Il. DELANEY.
Comrade Balsley, as may we'll be
imagined, was delighted to receive the
letter. He took it to his post that
night and read it, when, to his
further delight, that body voted Mrs.
Delaney resolution of thanks and ten
dollars with a request that they hoped
it would pay for picture for the post
that they might place it upon the wall
with others, the memories of whom
they greatly honored.
Surely, after lapse of twenty Eight
years, this recognition of her charity
at time when through the universities
of life and feebleness of age she can
appreciate it. is practical illustra-

the infantry, ana Jno ammunlGlOn
chests of the artillery filled. The cav
airy, well, they depended upon Provi-
dence and the bean poles they used to
carry. In those days that arm of the
service was a very insignificant factor.
/ had never seen any other but the
Pennsylvania Lancers up to that time,
and it was standing joke among the
boys when the lancers were met com
ing to the rear that the Johnnles were
near by because the cavalry was get
ting back. In my own arm of service
artillery | found many things that
were unpleasant, but [ never saw the
lancers go by that l did not experience
a sensation of contentment with my
own position.
1t often occurred to me how incon-
venient those long poles must be GO
ing thro Ugh the woods, and what they
would do with them in case of fight
with the Confederates. [ suppose the
intention of those who designed that
kind of an instrument was to have each
man run his spear through a Johnny,
sling him over his shoulder and ride
off. This was possible, provided the
Johnny was willing, but in case of an
objection the result would probably
have been diffe ~ent.
On Sunday evening before it was
hardly dark, the C0nfederates opened
cannonade with apparently every
available gun at their command, and
continued until something near 10
o'clock, when it ceased. To green men
at the bushes it seemed that this was
the prelude to the coming battle, but,
contrary to expectations, the early
dawn disclosed empty forts and rife
pits, and before the sun had risen the
Union army was filing into the strong
hold at Yorktown. The heavy guns
were left, but many Of them were
bursted, purposely OF accidentally,
was not known. Most of the ammuni-
ton not fired at us the night before
was left, and some of it utilized in
very ingenious way to blow the Yanks
into the middle of next week; for in
stance, at the Confederate headquar-
ters the dining table was found
very temptingly set for q hungry
soldier-a loaf of bread, cold meat,
pitcher of water, etc, were laid
upon the table Fortunately some
officer with his wits in active opera
ton, put guard over the building be-
fore any damage was done, when upon
close inspection it was found that to
every article upon the table was at
tached fine wire extending to the
magazine below and fastened to a per-
cussion shell that would have, when
exploded, fired the magazine and
blown the building and occupants into
the air.
Around Yorktown, along the road,
and further on at Williamsburg, we
found more of them, only differently
arranged; larger shells were buried in
the ground and fine wire attached TO
the cap and fastened to some perma
nent object short distance away, and
the wire laid close to the ground, so
that man or horse stepping upon it
would explode the shell. At the Will
iamsburg battle it was current, at the
time, that hundreds of these shells
were planted in front of the Confader
ate Notifications, aud that Confederate
prisoners we're compelled to dig them
up after the battle. This was many
years ago, and to me, at this time, it
seems more like an unpleasant dream
than anything else. &C. ii. Gates, IN
