In the not august nights and turned over
I the company to the care Of another pilot.
Some OF the refugees had money and
pressed it on him; others had none and
were destitute OF food. While the travellers
rested in a secluded camp the big hearted
mountaineer went out among the farmers
and laid out all the money that had been
given him in food for the poor fellows who
were starving.
When Ellis again reached Carter county.
the troubles there had increased. This
county Is Oh the northern slope of Smoky
mountains, in an angle between North
Carolina and Virginia, where the COnfed-
crates had full sway. Union recruiting
officers had penetrated there without armed
troops and the enemy was cruelty energetic
in stamping out the camps Of the would
be Union soldiers. Civil war was at its
height and no man safe unless he wore the
gray. A full company Of 100 men was
piloted by Ellis through TO Kentucky in
November and his boldness and skill in
the adventure led to further expeditions
His next party was so large that the Con
federates were aroused and followed the
trail as far as Powell river. The men ford
ed the river, guns in hand, and turning in
midstream kept the enemy at bay After
crossing, the refugees entered deep woods
and scattered, effectually binding the trail.
These men reached the Union lines and by
that time the fame of Ellis was such that
refugees and recruits in the mountains,
bound northward, would not march with
out him as leader. He changed the route
to Knoxville after that post fell into Union
hands. When the Confederate prisons
were moved to the extreme south in 1864,
he guided escaped prisoners from the Car
DINA mountains to the Union lines in
Tennessee or kentucky. it CHANGED that
when he struck General Gillcm's camp
near Morristown, in October, 1864, there
was a battle on hand between Gillem's
troops and NCrCa1's old brigade, under
General Vaughn. Ellis volunteered 10 fight
and, as lac expressed IL. Crjoycd himself
''fnely in helping r.. lie Confederate
out of Morri-,own.' When he set out
again for his native hills il was with au-
thority TO drum up recruits for the Thir-

slow for him. He preferred the stirring
though dangerous life of scout and guide,
although he was the hardest hunted Union
Tennesseean in all that mountain range.
By an agreement with his commander
he went back to Carter county to drum up
recruits for the regiment at large. The
Confederates had meanwhile become more
and more alert and hostile, and when he
reported back to camp with his batch
he announced that on his next trip he
must be furnished patrol, or he would be
compelled to ''bushwhack" in retaliation
for the methods used by the enemy. 4 de
tachment OF 80 Garter county recruits was
given him. On nearing the hills they
found themselves pursued, and Ellis final
" determined to turn on his hunters.
With few raw recruits added TO his com
pany he formed three attachments and
marched into Elizabethtown. The Confed-
crates fed at u gallop and plunged into
Doe river Some were shot off their horses
and by the time they reached the opposite
bank the fighting scout was at their heels,
far in the lead of his men, for he rode "A
steed as impetuous as her master. Dash
ing on, the Confederates led Ellis a race
and getting him q good stretch in advance
of his comrades wheeled 10 fight. Two of
them he quickly disarIned and turned over
to his men. who came up in nick of time.
The Confederates then scattered, Ellis fol-
lowing up q party of three Coming to
close quarters, the scout knocked one man
down by hurting n pistol at him butt end

away. The one PROSTATE on the ground
arose and took aim at Ellis, but the nimble
mountaineer stunned him by another blow
and chung to the captive until his conf
rades arrived. In this lively skirmish three
ConfederataS yycrc killed and / captured.
Ellis continued his trip TO the mountains,
sending out moro recruits TO Thomas
camps in Knoxville. BY that time all Ten
neSsee was clear OF enemies, excepting
guerrillas and raiders. Ellis was soon called
on to turn his attention TO the region east of
Smoky mountains. While Stoneman was
riding south through the Carolinas, Ellis
and his band secuted the country between
Stoncman's route and the Tennessee Dor
der. On this service he picked up numer-
Gus stragglers from Lees army, and reach
ing Greenville, y. G, late in April heard
the glad tidings of surrender.

pass through the lines and ascertain what
the prospects were for relief to the loyal
people Of east Tennessee. The Confederates
were rigidly enforcing a CONSUMPTION OF

Interview with the Union commander there

Cemetery Notice.

The management OF the South Gem
etery have necessarily entailed great
expense in which every person who
have relatives buried there-outside
of the pOtter's field-are directly in
terested. This expense has accrued in
the surveying and plating of Of
every lot in the cemetery, and must
be paid at once. The labOrer is
worthy OF his hire. The original
price for lots 2sx30 feet, was put at
$500, a price insufficient to bear eX-
penses. But that everyone may have
an equal showing, it has been deemed
advisable 10 continue the present
price for 30 days from this date, after
which all lots unsOld will be held at
SO each. Every resident in Ardmore
and vicinity is directly interested in
this matter, and your appreciation OF
the management, and concurrence in
the foregoing is earnestly hoped for.
A plat Of the cemetery, drawn by Mr..
Ressler, who surveyed every lot, can
be found at my Office on CaddO street,
where lots can be selected and re-
ceipts for same obtained.
This notice applies alike TO those
who already hold lots, as on no ac-
count will receipts be given until the
money is paid.

In reference 10 the above we will
state that the ARDMoREITE has the
facts concerning the shooting and
the results. Gillenwater il seems
went to Norman to take possession Of
a hotel which he had rented. He was
induced togo into a gambling hell
where he was robbed of his money
and then assaulted in a manner which
resulted fatally he dying the following
night. The principal TO the tragedy
made his escape. but three or four

A CHASTITY FIND.
The Bones OF N Man Pound Be-
meath N Pile ORRock.

One day last week while little son
Of Mr.. William Harmon, living near
Illinois Bend, was rabbit hunting. he
made a CHASTITY discovery.
His dog treed rabbit under d pile
Of rock, and the boy ran his hand
through an opening in the rock feel
ing for the rabbit. Instead of finding
the rabbit he drew out the skull of a
man. He hastened home and told his
father of his find.
Mr.. Harmon went to the scene 0
the discovery. and removing the rocks
was hOrritied to find the skeleton Of
man. The skull had a bullet hole
through it, showing that the man
had met tragic death, and the body
had been thrown into cavity be-
tween two large bOulderS, and then
covered up with small stones.
After finding the skeleton, the next
question that confronted Mr.. Har-
mon was, whose skeleton was it?
1t was known that about eight
years ago George Nandervee, a young
man who worked for Mr.. McAnnis,
near Illinois Bend, mysteriously dis
appeared, and nothing has been
! heard from him from that day to this.
he had e75 in money when he lei~
ana 1t has been the theory Of many
oil this time that he was a victim Cf
l0al play. His brothers who live in
Aautman county, had made diligent
search for him, and have spent con-
SIDERABLE sum in a vain effort TO get
sumo trace Of their lost brother.
II was also remembered that young
Nandervee, was man OF small stat
ufe and had cripple foot.
on Investigation it was found that
Tue skeleton unearthed by Mr.. Har-
non was that Of small man, and the
OOnes OF one foot showed that he was
acripple.
There is no clew to the perpetrators
y, the Infamous crime, and very likely
'ne murderer and robber will never
receive his punishment this side OF
the hnal Judgment.
