a scar on the hand of another, and inter

curious way, and told the following story
in regard to it:

felt very tired, and so sat down on u rock
and shot from there. | was just loading
up my gun when a long, lean, lank fell

| never saw a man run so fast in all
my adventurous life, and l could see that

tree or rock. | noticed a lull in the fight,
and CHANGING asidefsaw that both armies
had stopped fighting and were straining
their eyes to see the race.
That raised my courage, and | forgot
all about being tired. Just then | made
a squirt of speed, and as | did so l felt
something strike my hand which spread
out like the fan of u windmill.

just then something hit him and he fell

hand. On closer investigation | found
that there was a bullet hole in the palm.
The dead man had a bullet hole in his
breast, and | am positive in my belief
that both wounds were made by he

bullet that | had fired at the Confederate.
