CRUEL DISCIPLINE.
A Kentucky Soldier Left to Exposure
with His Skull Fractured.

NEWPORT NEWS. VA. Dec. p
Special.-Just before the First Kentucky
Regiment left Pier No 8. Saturday night
on its march to the train. which was 10
take Il home, there appeared at the pier
two privates-Henry Renctt, of Company
/. and Henry c. Erehme. Of Company
b. both under the influence Of liquor and
both intent upon getting aboard the
transport. The sentinel had orders 10
permit none OF the soldiers 10 90 aboard
the YES ,el aGd so informed the men.
They persisted I'm their determination
and finding that words proved Of no avail
the seminal whose name is not known
here, rcsorted TO his gun. with the hayo-
urt of which he dubbed both men about
the head.
Reffett fell TO the pier with his skull
badly fractured and Brchme went down
a'so seriously injured. The regimental
surgeon was called. He hastily put a
few stitches in Reflects head, and turn
ed the man over 10 some members Of the
hospital corps, after which he had the
ambulance at Old Point telcphoned for.
II was bitterly cold. but the injured
men were left lying on the pier with no
protection from the cutting wind. When
the ambulance arrived two hours later,
Renctt had been dead half an hour. and
Brehme was almost dead from his hurts
coupled with the cold and exposure. Both
the living and the dead were taken TO
Old Point and the sentinel went on 70
Louisville with his regiment The mat
ter was kept very quiet and nothing was
known of IL until yesterday morning.
when the death Of Reffett was reported
to the civil authorities and an inquest
ordered.
The jury was promptly on hand. but
after waiting for an hour and a half for
the corpse. adjourned for dinner. In the
afternoon. the corpse was on hand in
coffin several inches too short for it. but
there was not a single witness 20 the
affair, and the coroner was obliged TO
postpone the inquest until the 18th In
slant.
1t is the opinion Of at least one medical
man who examined the body that Ref
fett's life might have been saved by pro-
per treatment. though the chances
against him were great. In any event
few stitches in the head of man whose
skull had been fractured and upon whose
brain a clot of blood was rapidly forming
was not calculated to effect cure.

and that Henry G. Brehme who is in the

this theory Is correct viii not be known
