High Compliment to Capt. Shaw.
Some days ago we received letter
from Gen. Ben. La Bree. author Of
1.-The Pictorial Battles of the Civil
War, '"Echoes Of the. Battlefield anG
Quarterback ETC., ETC., and editor o.
that admirable work 1.-The Confederate
Soldier in the Civil War" advertised
in this paper, Louisville, KY, asking
that we send him another copy of the
GOLD LEAF of date Sept. 23rd. con.
tanning the speech of Capt. W. B.
Shaw delivered at the picnic and re.
union Of old soldiers in Henderson. In
stating the object of such request Gen
La Bree said:
81 have read this speech, and | think
it is the finest that ever came to my no
tice. This speech ought to be in every
Southern family. l intend to preserve
it and give it publicity whenever l can. .
Gen. La Bree wrote to Capt. Shaw
and asked permission to make such use
of his speech as he saw fit. Being per.
mitted to read this letter we had re.
quest to make also. It was that we
be allowed to print part of the letter
in question, approaching the compli
ment paid to Henderson man as we
did. In his letter to Capt. Shaw Gen
La Bree says:
