Dear Aunt Jane:
l have been rumina,ing aoont the
war between the North and South,
ard though. it would Interest the
young sisters TO have a few Sketches
OF that time. The war caused my
school days to be stopped and caused
me to have TO 90 TO tue fields, to
make bread. aud 10 the wheel and
loom to make clothes. We made
bed clothes add table cloths a d
towels, and we we're proud of our
work. We spun and made all our
rope. Those we're busy days for
girls. Think OF it,! 1t the girls of
tnis day bad to work as | did they
would cry hard times sure enough.
l was living in the northern part
Of Mississippi during the war. l
have seen soldiers by the thousands.
| have been sorry tor the poor,
weary soldiers. l never saw bn,
) one regiment of the Northern men.
Itey ate supper near the house.
! Two officers came to the house and
called tor supper. My mother gave
i, them supper. We treated them
I kindly. 1t was hest 10 do so.
They fought one battle within
d, eight miles of where we lived a,
Brice's crossroads. AS l listened
to the guns / wondered how any
y could escape alive. The next day |
e and five o,Eer girls aud two married
s ladies went to the battlefield, but
when we got to where the dead aud
wounded were, one girl said she
e could not stand the sight, that she
should faint, + 70 we did not go to the
thickest OF the battle. | remember
we'll of two wounded Yankees lying
under the trees keeping the greer
flies off OF their wounds. One OF
/, the married women in our crowd
= said TO them 81 reckon you wish
you had stayed at home, don't you p
One OF them told her be had as 500

10 an old gin shelter, where the,
u were guarding some Yankee pris
oners. The Southern soldiers invite.

The Oldest lady in our crowd said
ID "Humph you have got enough
~ Yankees to make a Yankee pie.

Ruiz's band surrendered. It is known
besides that General Pando in order to
advance his plans for the proposed
campaign in Santiago de Cuba, greatly
weakened all the trochas, taking from
them several thousand men and much
artillery.
1t is regarded as certain in wei in
formed circles here that Generals Gomez
and Garcia, after refusing to confer
with General Pando, will, if they do
confer, after refusing the terms Of

visions from their comparatively we'll

and then inaugurate raid upon the
