subordinate leaders of fighting
troops, except those who score a great
triumph on some noted field, are slow
in coming into the honors merited by
their prowess in battle Thousands Of
Federal veterans remember that they
fought against a Gen. Evans on East
ern battlefields, but how many know
that there were two of the name in
the armies of the Confederacy, both
gallant and ubiquitous when there was
work to be done? Clement A. Evans
began his soldier career as lieutenant
in the Thirty-First Georgia fighting his
first battles under Stonewall Jackson.
He served to the end of the war in the
Virginia campaign and laid down the
sword of a major-general at Appomat-
tox
AS colonel of the Thirty-first regi-
ment Evans received his first wound at
Gaines Mill in 1852. Having given proof
of good soldier stuff in command Of
regiment, he was often called upon to
take the post of danger with the Thir-
ty-first. A good regiment and a good
leader make a strong team. The writ
er was one of the proud and confident
boys in blue who climbed up Marye's
Heights May 3, 1862 and stood on the
crest all next day, boasting not a little
over the conquest of those frowning
hills. AS soon as it grew dark enough
to steal away safely he was going to-
wards Banks ford among the Skin
mishing rear guard of Sedgewicl's
corps d armee. We skirmishers had a
lively fight in the cleaning with some
plucky skirmishers in gray, firing in
retreat, man against man. Long after
the war 1 learned that Evans led the
skirmish line, composed of his own
regiment of Georgians. 1 remarked the
gallantry Of their advance at the time,
for we first welcomed them from am
bush, and had a masked battery on the
spot to help us with canister. 1t seems
that Evans was SO vigorous in attack
ing with skirmish line that his bril-
gade commander, John B. Gordon, was
forced to throw in other regiments to
back up the charge, and in this way
the heights were recaptured within
twenty four hours after we took them
by storming. That race for Banks
ford ahead of Evans skirmishers was
my first and last run from the enemy,
and I shall never forget it. One incl
dent recall. Just before our battery
retired from the skirmish line I saw
the shots pillow through the solid ranks
of Gordon's troops, marching as re-
serves to Evans line, and hurl men
into the air peacemeal With undaunt-
ed valor the ranks closed the gaps and
marched steadily forward on the guns.
No wonder that we concluded Marye's
Heights was no place for our bivouac
that second night.
Evans gallantry at Fredericksburg
placed him at the head of Gordons old

IN charge OF Brakeman Lanphere, and run

the Susquehanna. A wound received in
Gordon's fight with Barlow, on the plain
north of Gettysburg, consecrated his
promotion to the rank Of brigadier
general The winter following Evans
managed small fight on the Rapidan
and came out gloriously, in spite of
the odds against him. In one Of the
Federal "Reminiscences a division Of
Warren's corps crossed at Mortons
ford and Evans was told to attack and
drive it off. With no aid but a light
battery he kept up a fight for some
hours and finally gave a parting shot
to Warren's troops as they recrossed
the river.

The Daughters Of the Confeder.
acy.

D
Editor Of the Staunton Vindicator:
One of theprlncipal features Of the Rich
mond reunion, to the ladies of our State,
was the convention held in lice Camp
Hall, on July lst, by the "Grand Divis-
ion" of the Daughters Of the Confederacy.
The meeting was called to order by Mrs.
Garrett of Charlottesville, President Of
the Grand Division, and was opened with
prayer by Mrs. Geo. Bagby of Richmond.
The most important business for dis
cussion was whether we should join the
''United Daughters of the South, or SIM
ply remain the "Grand Division of Vir-
ginia."
There seemed very little advantage to be
gained by joining the United Daughters,
except that Virginia now has the unmerit-
ed reputation OF being exclusive, which
impression it was not desirable to confirm.
By joining the ''United Daughter" we
have an extra assessment of 1Oc year per
capita, and must have charter which
costs So.
The question was fully discussed and
admitted of some spirited remarks both
pro and con. Mrs. Randolph Of Richmond,
referred to the good work done by Lee
Camp in the building Of the Soldiers
Home; they are an individual Camp. In
her opinion the limited Camps" only go
round to reunions and have good time
generally. These remarks were warmly
taken up by the delegate from Danville,
who argued for uniting. There are now
in Virginia q Chapters, all members Of the
"Grand Division and 1 think only have
been invited to join the limited Daugh-
ters' as separate Chapters.
After the matter was fully discussed,
Mrs. Randolph put the motion as follows
"that We join the United Daughters as a
Grand Division only, thereby maintaining
our State Rights; the motion was seconded
by Mrs. Wilson OF StauntOn, and carried
unanimously, each Chapter voting aye as
it's name was called.
In joining, as Grand Division, we have
our delegates and, as matter of course,
have voice in all meetings, whereas, if the
OuaPCCio Jolu oCp"i "eCly, CuCy u1sV0 III
votes, but must abide by the results.
may also add that we have never been
asked to. join as Grand Division, and
hence this action is little premature on
our part, so that we must not feel badly if
we are left to do tour own sweet will, in
caring for and preserving the memory of
the gallant heroes, who now rest from their
labors, and of those who came from far and
near to the Richmond Reunion, who will
probably pass away before another one.
The sight of the tattered old flags kindled
a flame of enthusiasm in every heart that
hope will never grow dim. and trust that
each wife and daughter i'll StauntOn and
Augusta county will feel it her pleasure
and privilege to join the j. E. B. Stuart
Chapter, Daughters Of the Confederacy
which meets in Stonewall Jackson Camp
room, the third Wednesday in every
month. that we may be a power. within
ourselves, to do much good.
At the Richmond meeting it was also
voted to present Miss Winnie Davis with
one of our badges, at the reception, July
I'd, given by the ''Sons of Veterans All
honor to them as well as to the Daughters.
