NUMBER 2S

lment was ordered out on picket, and per- formed that duty until o'clock of the I'd instant, when we were relieved, and took a position behind the rail fence and l50 paces farther to the right of the place we occupied before going out on picket.
 We remained in this position, exposed to the enemy's batteries and sharpshoot- CTS, until P. m., when we were ordered to the extreme right, behind a stone wall on each side of lane, below the battery opposite the cemetery entrance Two companies were advanced to the grain field near the woods, through which the enemy were rapidly advaF eing. Weooy- cred the wall on each side of the lane by compelling about 900 stragglers, who had no commander, to fall into our line. We had not more than time to form behind the wall bcasre the enemy were discover ed advancing rapidly upon us on our right and a full brigade obliquely toward our left. When within 150 paces of us, we poured destructive fire upon them, which thinned their ranks and checked their advance. We fired several yolleys by battalion, after which they charged upon us. We had hand-to-hand conflict with them, firmly held our ground, and drove them back.
 Soon after, some of the troops on our left giving way, the rebels succeeded in getting in our rear. We again drove them back and held our position. It was during this conflict that Major Brady was wounded by a fragment of shell, which hit him upon the right shoulder. After the enemy had been driven back, the firing ceased, excepting occasional shots from their sharpshooters.
 We were relieved by the Fourth Ohio Volunteers, and were ordered to change front to the left behind a wall running at right angles with the one we had just oc- cupied, and fronting the town, and where the enemy entered on our left. We re- mained at this wall all night and during the whole of the Sd instant, exposed to a cross-fire of the rebel batteries and their | sharpshooters. With the latter our best marksmen exchanged shots, and succeed | ed in dislodging many of them. When the regiment entered the engage ment on the 1st instant, it numbered F | officers and 369 enlisted men. We report | at the present time officers and 120 en- listed men. Capt Wilson French and Lieutenant Bartram are the only officers known to have been taken prisoners. The former was wounded in the first day s engagement. We are uu. aware that either of them was paroled.
 [zThe regiment behaved gallantly. No troops in the world could behave better. Both officers and men are deserving of great credit for their coolness and bray cry throughout the entire three days bat tie.
 There are many deserving of especial mention for bravery on the field, but tn ey are so numerous will not undertake to give their names. The coolness and bravery displayed by the officers and men of Company D exceeded anything I ever saw. I am, general, your most obedient servant,-CA. c.

Judge Bleckley has some very original ideas which he sometimes expresses ir rendering his decisions.

Westmacott was standing as rigid as a
statue in the center of the room, with
lighted taper in her right hand. For an
instant they caught glimpse of her
stern face and her white collar. Then
the blind fell back into position, and the
two figures disappeared from their view.

Supporting his aunt head upOn his knee.
For long time all was silent within
the house. The light still stood motion
less as though Mrs. w estmacott remained
rigidly in the one position, while from
time to time shadow passed in front Of
it to show that her midnight visitor was
pacing up and down in front of her
Once they saw his outline clearly, with
his hands outstretched as if in appeal OF
entreaty. Then suddenly there was a
dull sound, a cry, the noise of fall, tie
taper was extinguished, and dark fig
ure fled in the moonlight, rushed acrou5
the garden and vanished amid the shrubs
at the farther side.
Then only did the two old ladies I'M
derstand that they had looked on while
a tragedy had been enacted. "Help!"
they cried, and ''help!' in their high,
thin voices, timidly at first, but gather
ing volume as they went On until The
Wilderness rang with their shrieks
Lights shone in all the windows oppo-
site, chains ratified, bars were unshot,
doors opened, and out rushed friends to
the rescue. Harold, with a stick; the
admiral, with his sword, his gray head
and bare feet protruding from either
end of long, brown ulster; finally DR..
Walker, with a poker, all ran to the
Westmacotts. The door had been al
ready opened, and they crowded tu-
multuously into the front room.
Charles Westmacott, white to his lips,
was kneeling on the floor supporting his
aunt's head upon his knee. She lay out
stretched, dressed in her ordinary clothes,
the extinguished taper still grasped in
her hand, no mark or wound upon her
pale, placid and senseless.
"Thank God, you are come, doctor"
said Charles, looking up. "Do tell me
how she is, and what should do
DR.. Walker knee1ed beside her and
passed his left hand over her head, while
he grasped her pulse W til the right.
She has had terrible blow" said he.
1t must have been with some blunt
weapon. Here is the place, behind the
ear. But she is a woman of extraordi-
nary physical powers. Her pulse is full
and slow. There is no stertor. 1t is my
belief that she is merely stunned and
that she is in no danger at all.
''Thank God for that!'
I'VE must get her to bed We shall
carry her up stairs, and then I shall send

CHAPTER XVII.
IN PORT At LAST.


Day had broken before the several den
liens Of The Wilderness had all returned
to their homes, the police finished their
inquiries, and all come back to it's nor
NAL quiet. Mrs. Westmacott had been
left sleeping peacefully with a small
choral draft to steady her nerves and
a handkerchief soaked in arnica bound
round her head. 1t was with some sur
prise, therefore, that the admiral re-
ceived a note from her about 10 o'clock
asking him to be good enough to step in to
her. He hurried in, fearing that she might
have taken some turn f"-' the worse, but
he was treasured ~ sitting Up III
her bed, with Cl;; .,->4 ida Walker in
attendance upon her. She had removed
the handkerchief and had put on a little
cap with pink ribbons and maroon
dressing jacket daintily fulled at tie
neck and sleeves.
my dear FRIEND" said she as he ell
tered, Il wish to make a last few re-
marks to you. No, no." she continued,
laughing as she saw look Of dismay
upon his face, Il shall not dream Of
dying for at least another 30 years. A
woman should be ashamed to die before
she is 70. Y ish, Clara, that yo1 would
ask your father to step I'd. "a you,
Ida, just pass me my cigarc, ,c& iii open
me bottle OF stout"
"Now, them" she continued as the
doctor joined their party, Il don't quite
know what | ought to say to you, adj
miral. You want some very plain speak
ing to-"
"'Pon my word, ma'am, [ don't know
what you are talking about"
THE idea Of you at your age talking
of going to sea and leaving that dear pa
tent little wife Of yours at home, who
has seen nothing Of you all her life! It's
all very well for you. You have the Efc,
and the change, and the excitement, but
you don't think of her eating her heart
out in droary London lodging. You
men are all the same"
well, ma'am, since you know SO
much, you probably know also that
have sold my pension. How am | to live
if do not turn my hand to work?''
Mrs. Westmacott produced large
registered envelope from beneath the
sheets and tossed it over to the old sea-
man.
"That excuse won't do. There are
your pension papers. just see if they
are right"
He broke tho seal, and out tumbled the
very papers which he had made over tc
McAdam two days before.
But what am | to do with these now?
he cried in bewilderment.
You will put them in q safe place, OF
get a friend to do so, and if you do yoU1
duty you will go to your wife and beg hel
pardon for having even for al instant
thought of leaving her"
The admiral passed his hand over hi;
rugged forehead. This is very good Of
you, ma'am,'' said he, very good an(
kind, and know that you are stancl
