into the field, and battles we've being
fought, but the principle was still being
discussed, and men eminent as jurists,
statesmen and journalists were still di-
vided. Kenton was dismissed to be re-
turned to his fellow prisoners. Only
One guard accompanied him.
Half way between headquarters and
the spot where the prisoners were be.
ing held under guard they encoun-
tered two men bringing in a wounded
mar on II stretcher. The victim proved
to DO tho guards brother. For a mo-
ment he forgot his prisoner, and when
he had recovered from his excitement
over tho discovery he no longer had a
prisoner. Kenton had walked off into
the darkness and made good his escape.
And now as the night drew on apace
and the cold rain steadily beat down
upon the battlefield parties of men went
forth in search Of the wounded. They
cared not for the dead. At the front
there is but little sentiment or sympa-
thy for the wounded. They are cared for
because many Of them will recover to
fight in some other battle. They were
found in the open fields, in the burrows
half full Of water, in the deeper bitches
skirting the forest, among the trees and
bushes dripping with the rainfall.
Some cried out in the darkness with the
broken voices Of lost children; others
prayed or cursed or wept. And here
and there, with their faces buriedin the
grass or dirt or with faces upturned to
the sky of night and eyes half open,
were dead men, a Thousand or more.
The morrow would do for them. The
dead of a battlefield ask nothing. The
living give them a covering of a few
inches of blood soaked s0il, and give
that grudgingly. -

10 part of the south witnessed so
much Of the wreck and misery Of war
rs the Shenandoah valley. Its high
ways, fields and forests, its houses, barns
and sheds, its every breeze by day and
night for three long years, echoed the
fierce shouts Of contestants and the
groans Of wounded men. Nature made
it a garden. War converted it into q
vast graveyard.
The Federals had begun their march
up the valley from Harper's Ferry.
Jackson was ordered over to bar the
way. Historians may write with pref
udice and politicians speak in bitter
ness. Let us be fair and conscientious,
even IL we cannot be neutral. Jack
sons first battle was on tho broad fields
of Kernstown. All historians who have
written for the future have pronounced
him a wonderful man in the science Of
war. Before his command was fairly in
the valley Royal Kenton and others
were far ahead, scouting for Informal
ton. Their reports decided Jackson on
moving swiftly up and attacking the
Federals as they reached Kernstown.
He was beaten back and fairly routed,
but that was to be tho first and only
time.
AS Jackson own brigade swept for
ward into the fight Kenton was in the
ranks Of the Shenandoah guards. On
his right was Steve Brayton, on his left
Ike Baxter. He had known but little
Of his company since detailed for scout
duty. He OWNED that Captain Wyle's
hitterness had intensified, and that the

The pair had been slowly walking

CHAPTER X.

When the troop had disappeared up
he dusty highway, Kentou returned 10
the house to say gQodby to its inmates,
and half an hour later he had turned
his face southwark, satisfied that he had
secured all information possible for a
scout to pick up. The farmer posted
him rs to where he would likely strike
the Confederate outposts and warned
him what highways to avoid, but on
that very day Mcclellan was pushing
his cavalry forward and seizing new
territory. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon
rs Kenton, who had been travelling in
the fields and under cover Of the forest,
was about TO cross a highway he heard
the click, click Of q carbine, and a voice
called to him:
Halt where you are, or You are a
dead man!'
1t was d Federal vidette, dismounted
and posted among the bushes which
fringed the highway. Kenton looked
up to find himself covered by q carbine.
Both were on the same side Of the road.
He had approached the vidette in lear,
and had be exercised more vigilance

time TO avoid him. The men We're not
over 80 feet apart when kenton got the
summons to halt.
Many Of the Federal troops We're still
dressed in the gray uniforms supplied
BY their respective states, while the
~Confederates had variety Of uniforms,
and It was difficult 10 detect one side
from the other. The vidette had done
his duty in hating the prowler, but he
was not sure what sort Of game he had
bagged.
Throw up your hands," he com.
handed as he advanced.
Kenton obeyed. He was armed only
with a revolver, and as that was hidden
from sight he appeared defenseless.
Now, then, who are YOU" asked
the Federal as he came to a halt scarce
six feet away.
Knight ask youths same question, y
replied the scout, making a great effort
to appear cool and Indifferent.
Il know you might, but | guess you

"Ihave information to give"

"Oh, it makes a difference, does it?
