Georgia farmer, writes Frank l.. Stan

vited merchant friend to dine with
him. The merchant was known for
his crankiness, and had once or twice
tried to shoot people for imagined
wrongs. The farmer had considera bic
business dealings with him, and they
were on the best Of terms. However,,
the farmer always kept a wary eye on
him. Several days after the dinner at
the farmers house, the merchant said
to him
L can't account for the queer feel
ings and impulses l have occasionally.
For instance, the other, day, when
was dining at your table, it suddenly
came into my mind to kill you, though
L had nothing in the world against
you. | had a pistol in my pocket at
the time, and once I bad my hand on
1T, when the strange feeling passed
from me-"
Don't let that bother YOU" said
the farmer " knowcd all about yonr
failin's in that line, and wusnt asleep
when l saw your hand to your hip
My son John wuz standin' in the hall
way back of you with q shotgun leveled
at you, an you jist did save your bacon
by changin' your mind. If you hadn't,
he'd or blowed daylight through you !"

Buchcls and Terry'sl he reported to
Gen. Richard Taylor, Just in timo to
participate in the battle of Mansfield,
on April 8. On the afternoon OF the
next day at the head Of these regi-
ments he led q splendid charge, had
two horses killed under him and re-
ceivcd slight wound in tho face, and
lost moro than half Of his mon, includ-
ing the dauntless Prussian, Col. August
Buchel. He WAS actively engaged in
tho pursuit OF tho enemy with many
engagements until May 81, when sick
ness caused his return to Shreveport.
Ills next service was with S. B. Maxoy,
in tho Indian Territory, where he was
assigned to tho command of division
OF cavalry at Hampstead, followed by
the surrounder soon aftcrward.
In 1865 Con. Bee removed TO Mexico
and remained there until 1867, when
he returned to Texas and has since
lived in San Antonia.

had given his voice for the doath Of
the thrce white mon, learning which
through their interpreters, they re-
solved on their course. They would
not sufcr Indian torture, but having
two pistols, thcy resolved that when
| the Indians should como to take tn en-
| to the stake, with one each would kill
u Comanchc and with tho other end
his own existence. But at last the
head chief OF ali the Comanchcs, Pa
ha-ya-ba, who presided in the council
arose and spoke. He said the Great
Spirit would not be pleased if the
Comanchcs killed tho messengers OF
peace. That the white flag must be
respected, or tho face OF the Grcnt
Spirit would be turned from them. At
the close OF that burning day, August
13, 1913, those three brave hearted
men bowed to God in thankfulncss for
their delivery, for they all profcssed
faith in His power and mercy.
When the first State Legislature
assembled on February lG, 1916, Gen.
Bee was elected Secretary Of the
Senate, but in May resigned, and in
response to the call of Gen. TAYLOR,
FASTENED to his assistance as u private
IN Capt. Ben McCulloch's company (A)
or Hays lst Texas cavalry, and served
tacEed service, and in the battle of
Monterey, whore one-third OF the COM
pany were killed or wounded. He
then became first lieutenant under
Con. Mirabcau B. Lamar in O. special
command stationed at Laredo to pro-
tect the frontier, and so remained
until the close Of tho war.
In 1853 Gen. Bee met Miss Mildred
Ia"ver' of an old Virginia and Georgia
family, who had recently removed
with her widowed mother from Ala
bama to Seguin, and in 1851 they were
married.
When the war broke out Gen. Bee
was splendidly situated rs PLANTER
and stock raiser on the San Antonio
River, in Goliad County. Peace,
prosperity and happiness blessed his
homo. He first, being nuturcd in tho
doctrine OF the State rights, rendered
service on the coast in command OF
militia, but in March, 1862, was APP
pointed brigadicr general in the Con-
tolerate army and placed in command
at Brownvillo, u delicate position from
its geographical location. His con.
duct there would fiji a volume in its
details and belongs to the regular his

was warmly approved by his Govern

During the following winter he COM
