LEE PREVENTED THE DUEL.
An Affair in Which Gen. Longstreet Was
Concerned.

An Affair in Which Gen. Longstreet Was
Concerned.
81 heard Gen. Mosby tell story of
duel that came near being fought by
Gen. Longstreet and Gen. A. p Hill
during the Virginia campaign" said
Col. Edward Angler, a great admirer of
Longstreets valor.
"Mosby says" the colonel remarked,
that the battle of Gaines Mill was
fought and won almost exclusively by
Longstreet's Georgia soldiers. A paper
published in Richmond. called the Rich
mond Examiner, printed a very extern
sive description of the battle, but gave
all the credit to Gen. A. p. Hill, who
was also in the fight. The paper gave
the Georgia general and the Georgia
soldiers no praise at all. Longstreet's
adjutant called his attention to it with
a vehement protest The men were all
angered that after winning such hard
fought battle they should be robbed of
their rightful claim to victory. Long
street ordered his adjutant to reply
to it officially in the same paper,
which he did. Gen. Hill wrote to find
out who 1t was who had stamped his
account of the battle as false, and
Longstreet, somewhat provoked, wrote
on the back of Hills letter that he him
self did it. This, with the manner in
which it was given, caused Hill to send
a challenge to Longstreet which Lees
old war-horse was quick to accept
Everything was being arranged for the
rushed in upon the scene and COM
manded Longstreet to desist or he would
send him from the army. Longstreet
said he could not withdraw his accept
ance of the challenge until the chal-
lenge was withdrawn. By interior
ence the challenge was withdrawn and
the duel declared off. According to
Mosby's account, these two gallant
leaders came very near shooting at
each other. Washington Post

A little story is told in Bruce's Life
of Gen Houston" which illustrates the
familiar way in which military orders
were expressed sometimes during the
civil war. In certain battle con-
federate commander stood upon a hill

terry which was making havoc of his
troops. At the foot of the hill, on the

serves; by his side stood his aid-de-camp

eral, quietly, without turning his head,
but his lips quivering Il want them

Jerking his thumb over his shoulder

William Newly, and l was raised on
this farm"
Stranger still. the William Newly
who enlisted in Company D. Fortieth
Illinois, in August, 1861, was a fair
haired and blde-eyed man, while the
William Newly who returns from the
grave in 1891 is a man with black eyes
and with black hair. streaked heavily
with gray.
Yet, by certain marks on his person
and by the most searching tests to
which he has been put, the man is iden-
titled as the same William Newly
Seven of his former comrades of Com
pany D. all of whom were in the bury
ing detail that placed his body in the
trench, swear that he is the man they
knew and buried. His own mother
swears that he is her son, William
Newly
Eighteen months ago a vagrant was
admitted to the White county poor
house. He gave his name as William
Newly. stated that he had belonged to
Company D, Fortieth Illinois, during
the war, and that he had enlisted from
that county. An Official OF the poor
house spoke of the matter to one of the
Newly family, who are well known in
the county, and the son of the man who
had died" at Shiloh, visited the insti-
tuition. The pauper denied that he had
ever been married Members of the
family visited him, and from scars on
his person and the manner in which he
received them became convinced that
he was the missing man. AS a final
test his mother asked that he be taken
to his fathers grave. The old vagrant
was led to the place indicated, his
mother and three brothers standing be-
side him.
This is my fathers grave" he an
nounced to them quietly 81 built that
vault myself" And he told of where
he had quarried the sandstone, and
even gave the names of the two oxen
that had hauled the stone to the grave
He was then taken to his old home and
is now living there, although still main
tanning that he is not married. A num-
Der of survivors of Company d have
called upon him, and all identified him
as their former comrade-at- arms. Capt.
George was among the last of his for
mer comrades to see him. William
Newly did not remember his old COM
rade, but strange to say, talked of the
orderly sergeant of Company d" as
though that officer were not face to face
with him.
On the side of his head, just where
William Newly was shot at Shiloh,
Capt George saw the place where the
awful wound had been trephined The
man had faint recollection of what
happened at Shiloh He claims to have
been taken from the field by the con-
federates and sent to Andersonville
prison, where he lay for months, and
that afterward he had spent most of
the years at various poor-houses, at one
time, however, having been confined in
an insane asylum. Chicago Times.

THE DEAD ALIVE.
A Soldier Buried at Shiloh StIll Among
the Living.

A Soldier Buried at Shiloh Still Among
the Living.
At the battle of Shiloh, fought Sun
day, April g, 1862, Capt Gilbert J..
George, now of St Louis, was orderly
sergeant of Company D, Fortieth Illi-
nois Volunteers, of the Union forces.
Tuesday night, April S, 1862, Orderly
Sergeant George, in command of a bur-
ial detail of twelve privates of his COM
pany, buried in the trenches dug on the
battle field William Newly, also pri-
vate soldier of Company D, Fortieth IL
linois Volunteers. Nine men of that
company had been killed on the bloody
field of Shiloh, and Newby's body was
the third on the list to be wrapped
in blankets and be laid in a soldier S
sepulchre, the long and CHASTITY trench.
He was shot through the head, mus
ket ball having crashed into his brain
on the left side, just above and little
in the rear of the left ear.
On a recent Sunday Capt George,
who became a lieutenant at Shiloh,
left St Louis, and going to farmhouse
near Mill Shoals, White county, Ill
saw living the William Newly whom
he had buried on the battle field TWEEN
nine years ago and positively identified
him as Newly, the dead come to life"
For twenty-nine years the old soldier,
whose death and burial are duly re-
corded in the war department archives
at Washington, has been drifting from
poorhouse to poorhouse and from Ia
sane asylum to insane asylum, strange
and piteous wreck. He is now safe
with his wife and children on the very
farm from which he enlisted in 1861 at
