the following: ''Rev. DR.. J. P. Smith. of
the Central Presbyterian. conducted ser
vices at the Soldiers Home, Sunday, and
after the services he was introduced to Mr..
VIM. Keys, Of Staunton. who was with Dr..
Smith at Charlottesville and assisted him
in carrying General Stonewall jackson
from the field. DR.. Smith was an aide-de-
camp to General Jackson, and was one of
the first to reach the side Of the General
after he received his mortal wounds. 1t
transpired in the conversation between the
Doctor and Mr.. Keys that the latter was a
member of an Irish company attached to
the Twenty-seventh Virginia Infantry,
and that he was also in the immediate vi
cinity of General Jackson when he was
wounded. He it was who carried one side
of the litter on which the General was
taken from the field.
''Dr. Smith had forgotten Mr.. Keys, but
the old soldier had not forgotten the Doc
tor, and he recalled to his mind every little
incident in connection with the circum-
stance.
ITO a Dispatch man yesterday DR.
Smith said that the meeting was one OF
great pleasure to him. and, although at the
time he could not recall the old soldier, his
memory has been somewhat freshened
since, and he proposes to go out to thu
home at an early date and renew his con
VersatiOn with him.

stores. We mean in all the stOres-cloth-
ing, confectionery, jewelry, provision, dry
goods, book. chinaware, hardware, shoe and
even the drug stores, for here the drug
stores make speciality every Christmas OF
having Christmas goods on sale. Prepare
ton for Christmas sales runs through
every store in Staunton if we leave out the
tin and plumbing establishments. The
range of prices is low down on the horl-
zon-we see good mechanical toys as low as
ten cents, and some toys at one cent. In
useful gifts, the prices are far below any
ever offered in Staunton before. We give
list of those announcing through the
VINDICATOR columns their Christmas
goods, and we can conscientiously recon-
mend every one of the establishments to
our county and city friends. To our
county friends we would give the advice
to come to town early before the stocks
are picked over-for the Christmas buyers
