Albert 6. Johnston Again.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: | see in
your issue of Sept. % Duncan Macarthur, Co
II, Texas Rangers, Enterprise, Ind. Ter,
takes exceptions to my article of Sept 5 as
to Gen. Johnston being carried off the field
at Shiloh by Union sold iers, and proceeds to
give the names Of the parties who took part
In that affair, and further SAYS of all the
preposterous claims ever heard of this is the
worst, and asks when did those men do
this 2" Mr.. Macarthur, we will see further
on when we did this. He also states that
zen. Johnston was wounded and borne
from his horse by Gov. Harris, of tennessee.
L don't doubt this, fer history states as
much. As to Gen. Johnston being ACCOM-
panied on the field by his staff, which Mr..
Macarthur names, it is quite likely that he
was, for all Commanding Generals are He
was also accompanied by about 10000 Con-
federate soldiers at the same time, as get
the figures from history.

Shiloh, and / claim so now, and, further,

are other things that could state in con-

withhold it, and will give it to the public
when asked the proper question. Now, if
he was not carried off the field by Union
soldiers, why was there flag of truce sent
back on the morning of the 9Th of April,

That "Pianer" Music.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: AT one time
in the early part of the late irrepressible con-
fiict the LIST Pa. Pirates, an organization COM
posed mainly of the hardy backwOOds element,
lumbermen and miners, were in the vicinity
of Chattanooga. They were assigned to a
camp, but not brigaded. The Colonel
thought it would be good scheme to COM
mence operations at once, and without fur
Their ado he ordered Maj. B to take five
companies with rations for three days, and
scout the country in almost any direction he
chose to 90. -
Accordingly, the Major and his detachment
started out without any definite plan of
action, but with "a vague idea that where the
woods were the thickest he could find the
most rebels. He pitched for the woods He
had not got far before ,he realized the neces-
slty OF pioneer corps. and not having the
tools necessary to equip such corps, detailed
from his own command, he concluded to send
back to camp for detail, so he selected his
messenger and hastily penciled on the blank
part of letter he had in his blouse pocket
the following reauisition: Colonel, please
send me three pianers.R The communication
reached the Colonel, and it only took him
one minute and IL seconds to get mad" red
hot He sat down to his board ON a bar.
rel " and scribbled the following!
Maj. B, what in h do you want
with three planers ?? What is the matter
with your drummer and fifer? Who in h
is going to play them when you get them?
Perhaps you think with your remarkable tai
ent for making noise you can play them
yourself, and intend to give the rebs mus-
cal sore-eye out there in the woods. Now, if
you can't go any further without the pianers,
you march your command back to camp, and
Ipromise you that will place you and your
squad under arrest. But, on q second
thought, if you intend to play them yourself,
it might be good scheme, after all, as your
music would clear the woods of rebs and
everything else with ears to hear. Now,
when you receive this you take back track at
once, and I'll find somebody who can scout
without pianer music. &c. r. g., Colonel.

in check while our main column was falling

in check while our main column was falling
back.
The 4th moved back as fast as possible
and became engaged with the rebel infantry
As we were charging noticed good many
gray suits in the road which the boys had
captured, and which they had under the ex-
element concluded they did not want when
going into a fight
As we were Just ready to dismount to
fight on foot Col. Lsmson, commanding our
regiment was disabled somehow in d smeunt-
ing and Mai. Austin, of the ID battalion, was
badly wounded in the arm. Both had TO re-
tire from the field, leaving the regiment
under the command of Maj. Purdy aud Capt.
Dickerson, of Co. M.
While in line Private James Buchanan,
spoken OF before, was mortally wounded, and
died IN short time alter just in rear OF eur
horses. He was a brave and gallant soldier /;
met soldiers death, and was buried not
very far from where he fell, Ia his uniform OF
blue, along the roadside we fell back.
The firing was kept up for some time here,
and 1t WAS intensely hot that afternoon about
3 o'clock of the 29tb of July. At times the
perspiration would roll down our faces in
such profusion that we could barely see to
shoot.
After holding the rebel forces in check for
nearly an hour, we fell back and barricaded
the road with rails; then held the position
until we were about to be fapked. We
moved rapidly to the next barricade, and
defended it in the same way. We thus
fought our way back all that afternoon,
holding the enemy at bay without any seri-
Gus loss. We continued our march all night,
tired and worn out. Many dropped out of
the ranks during that nights march, and
were no doubt captured the following mern-
ing, as our cavalry moved forward all the
time and the rebels followed.
The National tribune., 1895-10-31

1t was about noon July 30 that we crossed
the West Point Railroad at point nearly Is
miles below Palmetto, where we had torn
up the track in coming over. We moved
cut some two miles from the railroad to-
| ward the Chattaboochee, coming into a large
cleared tract, with woods to right aud front.
| Here our cavalry was halted and our bat
| terry of two guns placed into position, facing
toward the northwest as near as | can rec
oliect The prisoners were placed in rear Of
the battery, and the different regiments
| given position.
1t was very evident that stand was to be
made here, and thai the rebels were in close
proximity and would soon test our courage
10 the utmost. As soon as our lines were
formed aud everything in readiness, the Alb
Ind. and a part of the I'd Ind, with Ken
lucky regiment was ordered to advance and
feel for the enemy, and, if possible, open a
road to the river. We moved out as ordered,
and soon found the rebels posted in our front
in the woods. The timber was so dense that
we had to fight dismounied, and we drove
them some distance.
The rebel infantry soon changed position
and charged Oh our right and came in our
rear, yelling and firing, driving us in turn
and cutting off our command from the main
forces left in position in the field. The diff
ferent regiments got mixed up fighting
among the trees, some of the officers got
separated from their men, and confusion
ensued. About the last shot from the reb-
els struck In the head horse mounted by
Sergeant of Co. L. He reared and fell on his
back. The Sergeant was not hurt, but was
dismounted, and think was captured, as |
never heard of him afterward.
Maj. Purdy was standing near me at this
time, aud inquired for Capt. Dickerson, re-
marking at the same time. that he wanted
him for the rear-guard, as he was the coolest
man in the business.
The Major, after attempting to hold the
men of the different regiments in line with
little success moved toward the river a short
distance. Our scattered forces were gotten
together as much possible. and it was de-
clded that our only chance of escape was TO
make for the Chattahoochee and cross. After
getting the command in order it moved
on without nlolestation. The rebels evil
IDENTIFY turned back and attacked Gen. Nc
Cook where we left him in the field. 1t was
late IN the afternoon of the Both when we
started for the river, probably 10 miles dis
tant and 1T was long IN the night before the
rear-guard reached the river, having had
much difficulty in finding the road in the
darkness and thick timber along the river

We here found the indefatigable Mai.

The night was consumed in this work
without rest or accident, and all had
crossed safely at daylight. The mules were
driven in after the horses were across. and
several went under the waters of the Chatta-
hoochee never more to be ridden again
AS soon as all were over the command
mounted and moved up the west bank of the
river, crossing near Sweet Water Bridge.

far IN the rear; but towards evening found

horses having DS-s. abandoned, and we con-

a short distance from the road and sleep
under the evergreen shade, with revolver in
hand, till morning.
How sound and sweet that sleep! The
sun was shining brightly when we awoke
and we hurriedly started for the command,
We soon found mules and horses which had
been abandoned during the night by the
command, and we all rode into camp
mounted.
As we reached the camp the morning of
Aug. i our cavalry was just ready to move
out, and we fell in and marched to near
