disgrace. So they considered it, and
they were further humihated by the
jeers and filings from comrades as they
filed past.

Kenton had nothing to say. He was

worse. In his pocket at that very hour

pany, and again he found only one man
to give him greeting. Steve Brayton
chuckled with satisfaction as he extend
ed his hand and asked for particulars.
The others only gave him looks OF dis
trust. When kenton was asked regard
ing Rerbe Parker and had made his ex-
plantations, Steve grew thoughtful and
serious and finally replied:
Its a good joke on the captain. but
I'm troubled as to how it will end up.

Dod blast the fules anyway Why can t

The crisis came next day. Reube
Parker had been carried into the Fed
eral camps as prisoner, but 0wing to
the confusion and excitement was not
strictly guarded and managed to make
his escape and arrive at Confederate
headquarters less than "a hours after
Kenton. After a brief interview with
Captain Wyle the pair proceeded TO
General Jackson's headquarters, and
when they left il Royal Kenton was
sent for. General Jackson was plain,
blunt spoken man. Even while plan
ming the great campaign on which he
was to enter within three or four days
he had determined to give this matter
attention. Reube Parker had charged
kenton with bringing about his capture
for revenge. Captain Wyle had stated
that he and all his company distrusted
his loyalty. The general asked the scout
for statement of facts, and Kenton
gave IL to him, concealing no occurrence
from the date Of his enlistment. The
general listened attenAvely and without
interruption. Then Reube Parker. who
had been sent for and was in waiting.
was ushered in 60 confront Kenton. He
was bad man. but not nervy one. IN
five minutes IL was apparent that he had
lied, and he was dismissed. Then Ken
ton was asked 10 step out, and Steve
Brayton. whom he had several times re-
forred 10, was ushered in. He told a
straight story, and II was greatly to the
discredit of Captain wyle. When Ken
ton again returned TO the generals pres
ence, the latter kindly said:

and / do not see bow can mend il Just
yet. / will, however, do what think
is best for all.

and Brayton being detailed temporarily

Jackson had looked his last upon the
shenandoah. He was to become Lees $

fall In the darkness on the bush lined

took his place. and the dead Ashby was
replaced by Stuart to lead the cavalry.
Let us go back to Royal Kenton. We
left him inst as Reube Parker had been
made prisoner by Federal scouting
party. Reube basely sought TO betray
him, but he failed of his purpose. The
Federal captain beat up the neighbor-
hood as thoroughly as possible, but Ken
ton slipped through his fingers and re-
turned to Jackson TO make his report.
IL was his information, seconded no
doubt by that of others, which decided
Jsckson's move 10 Front Royal. While
the general seemed pleased Mt Kenton s
succcE, the latter could not fail to per-
ceive that something was yet amiss. In
bis own mind he felt sure that he was
mistrusted and IL was easy TO conclude
why. Not that he had failed in any one
particular TO do his duty, but that the
officers and men Of bis own company,
for reasons already given, were seeking
his downfall. When he had finished

commanders had been instructed to
avoid TINS and watch the mighty move

sides of the Chickahominy, with the
spires of Richmond in view. His front
wss miles long and defended by rifle
pits, earthworks, felled trees and nat
ural distractions. More than 100, 900
Federals faced Lee along this line. Be-
hind them were camps and wagon trains
and field hospitals and supplies cumber-
ing the ground for miles and miles.
Mcclellan was about TO attack. He
was even writing his order when Lee
fell upon his wing at Mechanicsville.
That was a feint. The fight at Meadow
Bridge, directly in front of his center,
was piece of strategy. The assault
upon his wing at Cold Harbor was
meant to annihilate him. The battle
ground was made mp of swamps, cleared
fields, patches of forest. timber covered
hills and old fields grown up to bushes
and briers. Mcclellan had two and
three lines of earthworks here, and here
his guns were planted as thickly as men
could work them. Longstreet and Hill
attacked here. They knew the strength
of the position; they had counted the
odds. There was no skirmishing, no
waiting. On front three miles long
tho Confedorates suddenly appeared and
rushed forward to the attack. Had
they numbered FIVE times as many they
would have been beaten back They
were repulsed again and again by the
fire which seemed 10 burn them off the
face of the earth, but those who lived
came back again more desperate than
before. Only their leaders knew why
tins terrible sacrifice was being offered
up TO the god OF war. Lee had planned
with Jackson. Jackson had left the val
ley by way of Browns gap 20 fall upon
Mcclellan S flank at Cold Harbor. The
sacrifice IN front was TO give jackson
time and TO mask his movement.
And so Longstreet and Hill advanced
again and again TO the sacrifice until
their dead and wounded outnumbered
the living. The afternoon sun was sink
ing lower and lower. By and by il was
only an hour high. Then the roar of
battle along the front suddenly ceased.
Had the remnants of regiments and
brigades become panic stricken at the
awful waste of life and fed from tho
field? Had they sullenly refused to- obey
orders TO advance again? Had Leo
given up all hope of success and with
drawn from that front? For five min
utes scarcely muslyet was discharged.

and dismayed the Federal flank. but
only for few minutes. Mcclellan was
not far away. He had fathoined Lee s
plans and discovered his true object.
The flank gave back until it had front
of mile long, and then it halted and
battled TO save that great army. What
was to be done must be done right there.
Re-enforcements were ordered mp, guns
advanced, and for an hour there was
such fighting as war had never witnessed
before.
On the Federal flank were swamp and
forest and tangled thicket. Engineers
had said that the nature of the ground
protected this flank. Wading through
swamps deep with ooze, bursting
through thickets which caught off their
caps and left their jackets in rags, ad-
vancing their lines amid the thick
forests, Jackson s men rushed to the at
tack. Time and time again the lines
were repulsed, but fresh troops poured
out OF the woods to take the places of
the dead and wounded, and the battle
grew more vindictive and murderous.
There is key TO every battlefield.
There is always key within a key.
Cold Harbof was the key of this great
field of slaughter. The exposed flank
was the key within the key. jackson
could count his dead by the thousand.
His entire force was mp, and he had
charged and stormed and battered in
vain.
The coming of night does not always
end battle, but as darkness shuts down
the combatants lose their desperation
and become more wary of each other.
Hunger. thirst and fatigue begin to tell.
AS the fire Of artillery and musketry
slackens the cries of the wounded are
heard, and those who have escaped un-
hurt begin 10 estimate the losses. If
Jackson could not break that flank be-
fore night shut down. then his sacrifices
had been in vain. "rben the thousands

They had TO traverse "A swamp and then
cross an open space ON which the dead
already lay touching each other. The
Texans had only begun their forward
movement when everE~piece of artillery
and every musket on that flank was
turned upon them. With yells of def
ance they rushed forward. The skele-
tons of men struck down in that swamp
were dug out years afterward as burial
parties sought for the dead Of the war.
Wounded men fell into the pools of
