THE BRAVE BOY OF IA.
Who Was He7--Brief Narrative of tbe Eremy
 in Tuskaoosa m 1865.

They had crossed the river upon the wooden bridge that spanned the Black Warrior. They accomplished their de- structive work of burning the quarter masters building and stores which was located just in the rear of the store now occupied by Messrs. Prince & Son. Just across the street opposite they burned the Washington hotel. where is now To- cated the Metropolitan store of Messrs. Friedman & Rosenau. This building had been used as a military prison during the war, ttere being at one time within its walls about 1000 federal prisoners. Among these raiders, commanded by General Crockston, there were perhaps some soldiers who had been entertained in this hotel by mine host Morley, who was afterwards sacrificed for his ap
 parent inhospitality by the federal gov ernment. Next in turn was burned the University of Alabama (and here l hope the conservative element of the north will excuse the general verdict of wan dalism" in the unwarranted and uncalled- for burning of the chapel, which con- taned the library, chemical apparatus and other valuable educational ilnple- ments and utensils that cannot now be replaced) This building. known as the Old Rotunda. was very near the heart of every alnmnus. It was separated

ing thereon materials for building or re- pairing, if 1t be done in such a way as to occasion the least inconvenience to the public and the obstruction be not eontin- ued for an unreasonab ble length of time.
 So, too, a private person carrying on
 business may occupy a portion of the
 street for reasonable length of time for the necessary purpose of receiving and delivering his goods. A street may also
 be used for the purpose of moving a
 building from one place to another, pro- Vided 1t be done in a reasonable and ju~ dicious manner. Streets may be lawfully
 used for other purposes than the accom- modation of the travelling publ :, provid- ed such use be not inconsistent with the
 reasonably free passage of travellers over them Slight inconveniences and oc
 casional Interruptions in the use Of
 street, which are temporary and req
 sonable, are not Illegal merely because the public may not, for the time being
 have the full use of the highway If a person finds it necessary to obstruct
 a public street, he must see to it that the
 inconvenience to the travelling
 public be as slight as possible, and that it
 be allowed to continue for a reasonable
 time only. And a reasonable time Is
 such as is necessary, in the ordinary
 course of business. for it's removal. A
 teamster has no right to keep his team
 standing in the street in such a manner
 as to impede travel for an unnecessary
 length of time. If his wagon breaks
 down and he is compelled to throw his
 goods upon the street, he must remove
 them out of the way in a reasonable
 time. A tradesman has no right to de-
 post his goods and wares on the street
 for the purpose of exposing them for sale. An individual has no right to ap- propriate part of the street to his eX- elusive use in carrying on his business, even though enough space be left for the massage of the public Nor has a store keeper any right to use the sidewalk in front of his store as sort of annex to his place of business. If a mans prem ises are not sufficiently extensive for the transaction of his business without en- croaching upon the street or sidewalk, he is bound to seek more spacious quar- ters elsewhere. The public convenience | is paramount to the necessities of private
Birmingham state herald., 1895-12-22

individuals" No doubt the habitual and constant occupation of material DOT tion of the sidewalk for displaying goods for sale, which would naturally interfere with public passage, would be declared nuisance per SC.
 Speaking of permanent structures, he says: "Permanent structures obstruct- ing streets and interfering, with their unimpeded use by the public are noisances, which may be abated, al- though there be space left for the passage of the public. The following are instances of such structures held to be nuisances: A barn occupying nearly half of the street in a populous village; a show case in front of a store extending beyond the house line; bay window 16 feet above the sidewalk and projecting 3h feet over the sidewalk; bridge ex- tending across the street from the second story of a building on one side ofthe street to the second story of building on the opposite side Supported by the buildings and being 13 feet and inches above ground); a hay scales in the street in front of the owners premises; fruit stand encroaching upon the sidewalk; show board extending 111a inches over the sidewalk in front of shop; wooden awning in front of store extending over the sidewalk. But in Hawkins vs Sanders, 45 Mich. 491, 1t was held that such an awning was not per SC a nuisance. So, too, in Osborn vs. Union
 
 Ferry company 53 Barb., 629, it was held that log of wood placed by the de- fendant in the public street at the threshold of its gate, was nuisance. MT. Freeman collects and cites a great array of au- thorties in support of the principles he lays down. We have read the most of them, as well as number of others. ana they establish to our entire satisfaction that Instructions of the kind in the pres ent cases are per SC nuisances. Being in themselves, without more, unlawful infringements of the public right to have the free use of the whole of the streets, which includes the sidewalks, for the purposes for which the streets were ded- icated or established, they are, without icated or established they are, without such cases evidence would not be admit ted that public injury did not result. Such evidence. beyond what the acts themselves manifest. would consist in the. opinions of witnesses merely. One
Birmingham state herald., 1895-12-22

jury might accord such weight to such opinions as to result in conviction, an- other in acquittal, when the acts are without dispute identical and unlawful, and the legal consequences of both are qecessarily the same, t would be ? very discordant administration of justice to have Costello convicted and Stathakis acquitted when both have, without ques- tion, committed the very same unlawfui acts, with the same consequences, merely because one jury viewed the opinions or men as to the consequences one way ana another jury the other way lnasmuch as the law upon the undisputed facts de- clares both the nature of the act and it's consequences, such opinions will not be received
 The rule is different where one is charged with an improper and detriment- al exercise of his public right 10 use the street Thus, for instance, as we nave seen a merchant has the right to use the street for receiving and delivering hls goods. but he must do so in reasonable and proper manner-in manner that will not unreasonably impede pubic travel. The act of using the street t9r such purposes is not in itself unlaW1ul' The unlawfulness of the act consists ln the unrea sonable manner of its perform ance, producing unnecessary pupllc IT. convenience. These are the elements which give the character of wrong to tna act otherwise right, and they must pc proven in order to establish the criminal offense. Indeed, it is not so much the improper manner of exercising the right, which constitutes the criminal otense, as the inconvenience to the pubic Wnlch results from that manner. Judge Ruthn in his opinion referred to supra, after stating the principle we quoted in reference to permanent structures drew the distinction between the two classes of cases as follows: But the very object of a highway is that it may be used. and though travel be it's pri- mary use, it still may be put to other reasonable uses; and whether particu- lar use of it. which does not of itself amount to a nuisance, is reasonable or not, is a question of fact to be judged Of by the jury according to the clrcum- stances of the case. Unlike the case of a permanent obstruction just referred to-,
Birmingham state herald., 1895-12-22

it is not the manner of using the high way which constitutes the nuisance, but the inconvenience of the public which proceeds from it, and unless such incon- yenience really be its consequence there is no offense committed" Nothing can better settle the principle than this emanation from so distinguished judge.
 Our own adjudications support our con clusion. State vs. Mobile, 5 Port. 279; Hoole vs. attorney-general. 22 Ala. 190; city council of Montgomery vs. Wright, 72 Ala. All; Webb vs. Demopolis, 95 Ala. 116
 The following are also some of the many authorities upon the questions here raised: Hart vs. Mayor, etc., 9 Wend. 571 GA Am. Dec. 165); Rung vs. Shone- berger. Watts, 23 (26 Am.

Desty, in his work on crim- inal law, states that front steps are part of the building, and when they project the building is in the highway. and such structure is a nuisance at common law, citing Com. vs. Blaisdell, 107 Mass. 235 Hyde vs Middlesex, 2 Gray. 267. Also. a stall for the sale of fruits and confec- tionares placed on a public footway is nuisance, though rent be paid to the ad- joining owner; citing Com. vs. Went worth Clark Pa. 324.
 The fact that Costellos stand was erected on the covering of the open way to the cellar is of no importance. Com. vs. Wilkinson, supra.

from the barracks and other buildings by not less than 300 feet. They should have left this as monument to those old au- thors of these valuable books, which would also have been a monument to themselves as men of education and learning, who respected this building as one dedicated to the Christian religion, literature, science and arts-bxt no! Van- dalism was running rampant all over this beautiful southland, and this. re- gardless of Gods teachings, must go with the balance by the torch of the in cendiary. This work of devastation fin- ished, they recrossed the river and con- pleted their destructive work by burning the bridge behind them that had borne them over. This they afterwards re- gretted, and wished to recross back into the city. By the sagacity and fore thought of our efficient mayor of that day, who is still alive, though. with Christian fortitude, is lingering with un- steady footballs upon the boundaries of the unknown world, he had secured the boats, flats, skiffs, etc.. over upon this side of the river.
 There was rumor that Confederate troops were approaching from towards Columbus. This exhilirated the desire upon the part of the federals to recross. ITO accomplish this end the following note was addressed to the mayor of the city: Send me over the flat boat and all your skiffs immediately, or l will take them by force. and as punishment for your disobedience let my men run riot over your city for four hours. J. B. Daugh, comanding." A terrible threat! Our city could make no defense. All her men were where duty called them, upon the battlefield. Tuskaloosa was select ed by tacit consent as an asylum for the women and children of other states. Our two large female schools were crowded with young ladies from all over the south This city at the foot of the moun- tains was looked upon as safe place of refuge. The mayor called together for consultation few citizens. They each heard this terrible threat. To refuse was to subject our community to mob worse than that now raging among the Armenians. In our defenseless condi- ton their request must be complied with, we must yield to the inevitable. It was the good fortune of "Veteran" to have been one of a party who less than six months before had captured In battle this identical Col J. B. Daugh, who.
Birmingham state herald., 1895-12-22

say in this note We can make no de- fense, as you are aware. Our men are where duty calls them--in front, where the true soldier is always to be found. Our city has been a place of refuge for many of the women and children of the Southern Confederacy. Their only de- fense is in you, true gentleman, who, no doubt, have left at home a mother wife and daughters, whose honor would be protected by true Confederate under similar circumstances. We can ask noth- ing less of ycu than to withdraw this threat and protect our loved ones as you would your own." Colonel Daugh com piled with this wish but requested that the boats be sent over immediately. In that case, If he crossed to the side of the city he would march directly through the streets, having issued an order to arrest and have punished any of his command who molested or committed any depreda- tion whatever while passing through our town. "Veteran," to the surprise of the lookers-on from the top of the hill on the side of the city, commenced to deliver the boats. When the last had been taken over over Colonel Daugh advanced and said Complimentary to you, for your former kindness to me, I will send a de- tail of my men to police your streets one of whom you will please take, with my compliments to the residence of Mrs Gen. R. E. Rodes as her private body guard Our venerable mayor and Vet cram promised their own lives as for felt if these men were molested while under their protection. The federals did not cross the river, but retreated towards Montevallo, on the west side of the Black Warrior, and joined the main body of .he command under General Wilson to att tack Selma, where one of the last bat ties of the civil war was fought.
 The object of writing this brief narra- tive is to ascertain who was the young boy of 14,who was as brave as an old sol dier who had been under fire and in many battles. He was made of such material as comes to the surface all over our southland when occasion rises for it to manifest itself. Speak out, young boy of IA in 1865. now man of more than 40 years. VETERAN.

when captured had been slightly wound ed. sVeteran" was detailed to take him In charge. and did assist the surgeon of the division to dress his wounds and otherwise cared for his comfort. This kindness met a responsive chord in Colonel Daugh's heart, who, when part ing, gave a card which read thus: "Should Captain Blank be captured by the federals, treat him kindly, as a re- ciproc31 favor for the kindness extended to J. g. Daugh, colonel commanding - reglhent, Ohio volunteers. When the note to the mayor met the eye of Vet eran" who was at home on furlough
 the name called to mind the capture of Col. J. B. Daugh whose card was stlll Tn the possession of "Veteran." With the the threatening note and the card in hand, he walked toward the river, to the astonishment of the mayor and citi- Zens who looked on with incredullty. When veteran" approached the old warehouse, located west of the bridge (slnce burnedD there was a young boy about IA years of age who had procured his fathers old rifle, and was lying under this building deliberately loading and shooting at the enemy upon the opposite bank. "Veteran" called to him to conceal his gun and come out from his impromp- tn breastworks and take him across the river in one of the skiffs. He complied as readily as an old soldier would, without a tremor or expression of fear upon hls sun-burnt checks He applied the paddle vigorously with unshaken nerve until the skiff landed in the midst of perhaps 1000 or more federal soldiers whom he had been shooting al but few moments be- fore. "Veteran" asked to be shown Col onei Daugh, whom he found sitting upon his horse upon the top of the bluf. The meeting between the blue and the gray was grotesque In the extreme. There was a mutual recogni- ton. The colonel dismounted and with a cordial grasp shook the hand and arm that was covered with the gray coat. After the usual greetings "Veteran" pre- sented the card given months ago, and also presented the threatening note writ ten to the mayor, which caused such consernation among our citizens, and said: "Colonel Daugh, you are gen tleman. You cannot mean what you

mingham does not confer it. Its pro- visions in regard to streets look to the bettcrment of streets for the public pur poses for which they were dedicated or acquired They do not empower the city to permit the streets to be diverted from their public use to private purposes by suffering individuals to obstruct and ap- propriate them. Such a thought was never in the legislative mind.
