In August, 1893, work was begun on
a Presbyterian church in this town. By
April of the following year the build

debt was incurred in erecting the build

once damaged by Il wind-stOrm, while
the work was in progress, and once
struck by lightning since completion. Not
withstanding these hindrances the little
band of members worked heroically, and
yesterday they were much gratified at
seeing the last dollar of indebtedness
on the building cancelled 1t was a day
of JOY among the members and the en-
tire community rejoices with them over
their success. The third Sunday in May,

which to have the building dedicated.

THAT CRUEL WAR-SHERMAN Ms
ARMY ENTERS RALEIGH.
by Joseph A. Harris in Hillsboro Oh
server)

On the 18th day of April, 1865, early in
the morning, and while the bursting
bombshells caused by the burning of the
n. G. r. II. depot, were flying thick and
fast, Sherman's army entered Raleigh.
Just enough rain had fallen TO lay the
dust For several days Johnson's army,
estimated to be between 10000 and 40
600 strong, had been passing through
Raleigh going towards Durham. The
night before the Yenkees entered Raj
eigh, the city was filled with stragglers,
and many of the stores were robbed. |
remember distinctly seeing the Yankee
cavalry marching up Fayetteville street.
Just as the advance guard arrived in
front of the old market house | heard
the report of gun. The Yankee caval-
nv broke ranks, some going into market
square and others into Kuester's alley,
but they soon rallied and charged up
Fayetteville street. | went to the capitol
square and pretty soon the Yankee caval-
ry brought in a Confederate prisoner,
Lieut.. Walsh, of Texas, who was mem
Der of Wheeler's cavalry. | was stand
ing close to Washington's statue and
very near General Fitzpatrick when he
gave his order to hang Walsh. After
inquiring about what Walsh had been
doing, and being told by his capitors that
he had fired upon the army after the
city had surrendered, General Fitzpatrick
said
"Take him out where no ladies can
see him, and hang him.
Walsh replied: Il die for my coun-
try"
Fitzpatrick said: You die thief and
robber."
| saw the Yankee cavalry when they
led him off to hang him. He was hung
on a tree in the southeast corner of a
large grove. between the Confederate
cemetery and Lovejoys academy. Miss
Annie Loyejoy, the beautiful and highly
accomplished daughter of our old school
teacher, Mr.. J. NJ. Lovejoy, gave his re-
mains decent burial on the north bank
of Gray's branch, small stream near
where he was hung.
Pretty soon after Lieut. Walsh was
led off to be hung, another detachment
of Yankee cavalry arrived with another
Confederate prisoner, Lieut.. James, a
one-armed officer who was Provost Mar
shall of Raleigh when the Yankees took
the city Gen. Fitzpatrick was told that
Lieut. James was captured while trying
to get out of the way of the Yankee
army Fitzpatrick said he would treat
James like he had given orders to treat
Walsh, if he was guilty of the same
thing James replied: You can do as
you please. sir!"
In a few minutes a flag of truce
brought in a Confederate with message
to the Yankee General, and my recollec-
ton is that Gen. Fitzpatrick gave orders
to repass the messenger with his COM
pliments to Gen. Hampton, saying: Tell
Gen. Hampton l will have no further
communication with him except with
the sword and the bullet"

ton reached Raleigh, Mr.. w. r. Richard
son told me of it in whisper and warned
me not to repeat it. AS soon as the news
was made public, all was excitement
and confusion. The safe guards in the
homes of the citizens were doubled, and
buckets of water were provided and kept
ready nm case they should be needed. A
strong guard was placed between the
city and a corps of Illinois troops who
camped near fuckers old mill, to pre-
vent them from coming to Raleigh and
burning the city as they threatened they
would do.
The above are the recollections of a
man who was at the time Sherman's
army entered Raleigh, lad of between
sixteen and seventeen years of age.
