toms experience was the hardest strain
on eredulity. says the Globe-Democrat.
Jim was fighting the best he knowed
how" He was In the thickest of the
assault on Snodgrass Hill. As he
charged across the road and over the
field toward the Dyer farm Jim caught
q glimpse of the house he was born in.
But valor did not make jim forget
discretion. He took advantage OF all
the pine trees he could when going
into and coming out of the fight. On
his back was strapped his knapsack.
and over the knapsack was rolled his
blanket. The two made hump which
projected beyond the trees behind
which jim took temporary shelter.
When Jim unloaded his knapsaok and
blanket the night after the battle he
found that thirty-seven bullets had
penetrated 1t.
"Yes. SIR" said Jim, looking the
listener straight in the eyes. Thirty
seven bullets had gone into my blanket
and knapsack-thirty-seven bullets
and two buckshot II I had that
blanket and knapsack now would not
take 81. 900 for them. After the battle
l gave them to mother and told her to
keep them for me until I came back
from the war. But yeu know how IL

Thing get lost don't know what
became Of the blanket or knapsack."
There was only one veteran who
told a story which approached that Of
Jim Brotherton In picturesqueness.
He was Private Sinnatt who came all
the way from Virginia to attend the
reunion. Private Sinnett was particu-
larly anxious to meet and renew ac-
Qusintance with some of the Twelfth
Georgians A big man Of the Twelfth
Georgia saved his life, Private Sinnatt
said. He explained how.
When he got into what seemed to
him the hottest place he had ever
found. Private Sinnatt lay down be-
hind tree which wasn't moro than

lay there wondering how long It would
be before he would be hit strapping 4
fellow from the Twelfth Georgia grab
bed him by the leg, lifted him from
behind the tree and lay down where
he had been. Sinnatt says the Georg-
ian was about twice as big as he WAS
He couldn't lick him. 80 he made the
best of a bad situation, crawled up
close behind the Georgian and kept
quiet. II wasn't but few minutes
until bullet struck the Georgian and
killed him. Sinnatt lay still behind
the body. which stopped fifteen bullets
before the wave Of battle passed on.
That Is why Private Sinnatt says he

L.P. THOMAS & son co,

For the same reason you don't.tie up your
horse to an empty manger for months at
time, you don't want to put in your wheat
this fall without an ample quantity of food
enough to grow full crop of wheat and sue
ceeding grass
To supply this plant food in the proper
shape is our business. We say proper shape
because anybody can mix little South
Carolina Rock and Kainit together and call
it a fertilizer: but twenty three years ex-
perience at the business, with our complete
facilities, has enabled us to make fertiliz-
ers that will produce the desired results.
There isn't any question about it. You will
say so too. if you have used our goods, and
if you haven't. you can get them and all de-
sired information from our agents. The
Thomas Phosphates are standard and thor
oughly guaranteed.
