Luke had noticed that their numbers
were hourly increasing. Patriotic farmers
and their sons, apprized Of the approach of
the army, FASTENED TO join it and swell their
numbers. They came bringing their own
guns and ition, and such arms, at
close range, were not to be despised.
"We've got q full company unorganized,
an they want leader. They're ready to
sign muster roll and 60 in. I've made up
nv mind to have you their Captain"
This was an honor of which Luke had not
yet dreamed He thought the recruits
might prefer to choose Captain from their
own numbers. But Captain Smart assured
him that such would not be the case. They
were without any organization and strangers
10 each other
"Come with me, We'll get 'em in line,
take their names, and see Il l don't pull
we through"
The unorganized men were got together
and Captain Smart made them short
speech, and then called upon Mr.. Mason,
whom he REPRESENTED as one Of their num-
Der, to deliver another; after which their
names were placed on an extempore muster
roll and all sworn in.
"Its your duty next to elect Officers, said

CHAPTER w.
A SAUCY REBEL.

Again the boaster halted and fixed his
eyes on the resolute soldier upon the gate.
There was no installing the intent OF the
recruit, and turning about lack said:
"Oh, come on; the main army III ketch
up wi us Directly"
His companions gave utterance to shouts
OF derisive laughter, and followed the
cowed bully down the road.
"Yc've got grit N no mistake" Arkan-
saw Tom sad when the others were gone
al swow, believe ye'd n shed his blood 4
he'd a done it,"
II certainly would" Luke answered, de-
scendng from his perch.
In a few moments stragglsrs began to
come along and the men We're kept busy TO
prevent their stealing something or doing
some damage.
The main column at last came in view,
with Captain Smart at the head.
"Ye've saved it so far. see,n he said.
~ have, Captain, but came very nearly
shooting one man TO do it."
"You did right. If We find any O them
prowin', or at any devilment here, let 'em
have it. know old Jordan Neff, and he's
good square man, and no N shall harm his
follerin' US. The meanest ar alters in tn
r'ar. Better stay here till the last uns gone
by"
AS Luke intended asking this permission,
he readily asscnted. The main column Of
about two hundred men, which Captain
Smart called an army, moved on.
The Captain was correct when he said I:
"The meanest ar alters in TIL r'ar," as
Luke soon discovered. 1t took no little
courage and determination to hold the
scoundrels in check. He was forced to
knock one down aud prod another with his
bayonet before the stragglers of the rear
guard could be induced to give up the idea
OF plundering the house
BY the time the last straggler had gone
by, leaving the house unmolested, the main
body of troops was some four or five miles
away.

took the body of their comrade to the
house of Union man, where it was left for
burial. As they were hurrying down the

way out of the thicket at the road side

appeared into the bushes.
/ "There is some mystery about this black
fellow" said Luke. ~ wish l could
fathom it."
Late that evening they overlook the main
body The little army was encamped on the
banks Of q creek, and rumors of an attack on
the rear had come to them. Luke and his
companions were supposed to have been
killed or captured, and Captain Smart was
overjoyed to see them.

Captain, taking the recruit aside. "Ive

Joined them in the feast.
Having satisfied their appettes the five
soldiers went to the front yard, where they
saw the advance guard Of the little army
coming down the hill.
"Take your places in front of the fence,
and allow no one TO come inside, !" said Luke.
The first soldier who attempted to force
his way inside was stopped by Arkansaw
Tom, who said

The man turned to his companions, who

Luke cast q glance at the old house be-
meath whose friendly roof he had passed
his happiest days 1t was the home of his
friends, the home of his betrothed-and in
the attic was the old wooden cradle which
had borne his infant form on the flood. This

But lack was not quite so ready to go as
