TRAGEDIES IN CAMP.


Chicago Herald: Tragedies in
our own camps-outside of battles
were more common than the public
knows" said distinguished soldier in
attendance upon the recent reunion of
the Army of the Tennessee.
THE shooting of Major General Mel
son at Louisville by Brigadier General
jeff c. Davis, because Nelson in a fit
of anger had called Davis a long string
of hard names, is one of the few that
came to the surface. You wouldn't
think it. probably. but 1 myself was
once so close to a tragedy that it makes
my gray hairs rise up as L recall it.
@ 8 @
while a number of officers of the
regiment were in the majors tent l
said something that a captain took ex-
ceptiOns TO, and a war of words fol-
lowed. When he pumped out, You are
a liari I struck out with my right and
set him to bleeding. He came back
at me like a tiger-cat We clinched,
and for three or four minutes had it
hot and sharp; then the others sepa-
rated us. He made all sorts of threats.
was adjutant. He ranked me, and 1
confess that for a time | did fear that
he would make me trouble in the way
of a court-martial. but the matter
seemed to blow over.
@ g g
''One fall afternoon the captain in
vited me TO take a walk with him.
Thinking that our troubles had COM
pletely healed, l consented. On the
way back to camp we passed through
an orchard. / climbed a tree to get
some apples. Just as 1 reached for an
apple / saw the captain reach for his
revolver and glare at me like a fiend.
Instantly I lOosed my hold and dropped
to the ground. Selling a stake, 1 took
my place by his side and said: Now,
you cowardly dog. put up that gun or
I'll brain you. This time he was kept
on a hot griddle for a month, though
of reporting his attempt to assassinate
me.
1.-THE next fight we got into We made
up for good and all, and remained fast
friends until the final roundup. when
General Joe Johnston had his men
throw down their guns and go home
to make a crop It happened in this
way: The colonel had given orders TO
form line of battle. AS adjutant, it
was my duty to see that each captain
carried out the order. When 1 reached
the would-be assassin and had per-
formed my duty and started to go away
he called out, 'Adjutant, come back
When 1 complied he took my hand,
looked me squarely in the eye, and
said: Lieutenant, can you forgive me
for all my meanness to you? 1 hope
so. I.have never had a good hour since
that incident in the orchard
with all my heart, captain. No one
but you and myself knows anything
about the little affair

US while in the army We
never met after being mustered out
He died three years ago. OF course 1
could have sent him out of the army
in disgrace and placed him in the pen
itentiary after he was out, but I've al
ways been glad I did not. He was a
good soldier in battle. as brave as they
made them. but a bulldog in camp. He
left the army a major. His name?
