BLOODY POND.
A Historic Spot in tIs Battlefield Of
Chickamauga.

The confederate veterans spent the
last day of the Chattanooga reunion
upon the battlefield They came
down by train loads and scattered in
all directions to go over the ground on
which they fought. With rarely an ex-
ception this was the first visit since the
battle. Scenes and experiences came
back with marvellous distinctness A
little south of where the hardest fight
ing was done there is a peculiar de-
preston. The country road curves to
avoid one side of it. The other half
breaks in upon a cornfeld. Natives
call the place sink. Water collects
there. Bloody Pond" the place is
called. Many of the veterans walked
down to look at it as soon as they left
the cars. AS they stood around the
edges they told of the sights they
saw there in the closing hours of the
battle.
There is more forest than farm in
the topography of Chickamauga.
Springs are few. and. although each
farmhouse has a well, there was no
water supply for a fighting army. In
making provision for the three thou
sand veterans the Chattanooga COM
mittee had barrels of water hauled
from a considerable distance. 1t is
not ditteult TO understand what must
have been the condition when the one
hundred thousand soldiers were march
ing and counter-marching charging
and retreating, over these ridges,
across these fields, and through these
pine forest glades.
So long as they were resting on
Chickamauga river, or so long as they
could reach it from reasonable dis
lance, the confederates relied upon that
for water. But Sunday carried the tide
of battle two miles to the west of the
river. And then it was that BLOODY
Pond received its name and became one
of the historic spots on the field.
Wounded men by hundreds dragged
themselves toward the pond Some,
crazed by feverish thirst, staggered to
the edge and threw themselves in.
Many died, as they lay there within
sight begging for just a drop. When
Monday morning came there was no
more horrifying scene than that pre-
sented in and around Bloody Pond
Corpses foated on the alter and corpses
lay higher than the pine cones all
around the edges. Both armies were
presented in the CHASTITY scene.
we could drink anything in the
form of water those days" one of the
veterans said, as he looked at Bloody
Pond. American Tribune.

ASLEEP AT HIS POST.

Ihe Veteran EnterLains Ills Comrades
with a story.
Sometimes" remarked the veteran,
as the members Of the Old Soldiers
club pulled themselves together, some
times a soldier may be caught asleep on
his post in n dangerous place and not
be shot for It, but it isn't safe to take
any risks / remember one night what
happened down in Georgia. We had
been on a weeks hard march over a
dreadful rough country, getting mighty
little sleep and pestered by the Johnnie
scouts at every ford, and whenever
they could get close to us in the hills,
and it WAS about as much as we could
do TO get along at all. One night we
went into camp in the neighbor aood of
the enemy and our sentinels were eau
toned TO be extra careful. We had
with us a young fellow of seventeen.
who wasn't afraid of anything, and in
dozen fights he had done wonders,
but this marching had about tuckered
HIM out, and he was wreck. lie was
still nervy though, and when he was de-
tailed as a sentry he never said word,
but braced up and went to his post.
| was to relieve him. and when
the time came cur squad started
out with the corporal for the
posts. His was in the tieklishest
place near ford, and as we come
| towards him, we could see him march
ing up and down as steady as clock
work; and l felt good, for / was half
afraid the boy couldn't stand il. As

pits in front of our brigade. As our
side of the ridge was nearly perpe
dicular, it became a nice question he
to get the gun into the position pre-
pared for it, but Col. Woods and Capt.
artillery. were equal to the occasion. A
spur of the ridge projected northward
and terminated rather abruptly about
two hundred yards from the main
ridge, and from this point the start was
made.
Everything being ready, and each
man in place, Capt. Landgraber's voice
sounded the command: Forward"
The horses seemed to know it was nee
essary to put forth their greatest
strength and speed. for in less time
than it takes to describe they had
rushed over that three hundred yards
of open, unprotected ground in plain
view and short range of the enemy.
The confederate works swarmed with
men observing closely the whole pro-
ceeding from start TO finish, and per-
feet storm of bullets fell around that
heroic gun crew. but they accomplished
their object without man being hurt.
One of the horses was hit, and fell, but
jumped up and finished the race. 1t
seems almost a miracle that gun
drawn by four horses could travel
three hundred yards--every foot of the
distance under calling fire and at
short without a man or horse
being killed.
My pen is not able to portray that
scene, nor is my gift of language suf
icient to describe il in the manner it
deserves. | can only say every man
engaged in that artillery charge, from
captain TO private, was hero, whose
conduct deserved the highest praise.
There were many such, no doubt, but
know of no other action of such bold
ness during the late war. H. A.

Stirring Scene That Was Enacted In

A Stirring Scene That Was Enacted In
Front of yicksburg.
When our army under Gen. Grant
closed in around Vicksburg we took
possession "a the outer line of works,
the confederates falling back to the
next line. These works were long,
continuous trenches on the crests of
several ridges surrounding the city in
the form of semicircle having its base
on the river. Between these ridges
was narrow valley having the same
general course and direction as the
ridges.
The brigade to which the writer be-
longed had its position on the north of
the city, extending eastward from the
river and embracing the ridge that
made north to Haines' Bluff on the
Yazoo river. After securing the outer
lines so easily we were ordered to
charge upon the next line on May 10,
and again the 22d of May, if rny mem

These two assaults proved unavail-

A CONFEDERATE brigadier affirms
that single epigrammatic expression
from a private soldier convinced him
late in the civil war that there were
other things than the arms OF the fed
eral government working against the
south. What the soldier said to his
superior was: ''Genl, it begins to look
to me as eff this was a rich mans war
and pc mans fight" That convinced
the general that the southern cracker
was beginning TO wonder what profit
would ne to him from the triumph
Of the eonfederacy and the rich slave
holders.
