YANK AND JOHNNY REB.
\ Pathetic Incident of One of the Civil
War Battles.


William Wilkerson, who was for
many years jailer of Fayette county,
and who was noted for his fidelity to
truth, related the following pathetic in
cident of heroism which he witnessed
shortly after the battle of Richmond,
Ky, in 1862:
"A son of my friend. Hon. 'Cassius M.
Clay. was killed in the fight at Rich
mond, and it was my duty to visit the
battlefield to identify the body and take
it to his fathers home. While riding
slowly over the scene of the battle 1
heard groans, which I was sure came
from a cOrnfield near at hand. Look
ing down the corn rows I soon discov-
cred two wounded soldiers lying about
forty yards apart. One was a Federal
and the other was a Confederate. A
cannon ball had broken and terribly
mangled both of the Confederate's legs
while the Federal was shot through the
body and thigh
L am dying for water heard the
Federal say just as 1 discovered them.
His words sounded as if they came
from a parched mouth.

when the painful journey was fin
ished he offered his canteen to the Fed.
eral, who took it and drank eagerly,
the water seeming to sizzle as it passed
down his parched throat. Then, with a.
deep sigh of relief, he reached out to
the Confederate, and it was plain to see
as they clasped hands and looked into
each others eyes that whatever of hate
may have ranked once in the hearts of
these men had now given place to mu-
tual sympathy and love. Even while I
watched them saw the Confederate
body CULVER as If in a spasm of pain,
and when his head dropped to the
ground L knew that hero had crossed
the dark river. The Federal kissed the
dead hero's hand repeatedly, and cried
like child until had him removed to
the hospital, where he, too, died the
next day."-Lexington Leader.
