| Jesus condemned. Matt. 27: III26.
Read from the first verse. Golden
Text-"Christ Jesus came into the
world to save sinners" l Tim. 1: s.
After the Lords supper, they went
out into the Mount of Olives, and Je.
sus told them that they would all be
offended because of Him that night,
and that Peter would deny Him. But
they all said that they would die first.
Their they all came to Gethsemane,
and Jesus took Peter, James and John
apart to watch with Him while He
prayed, saying, go, My Father, if it
be possible, let this cup pass from Ne:
nevertheless, not as l will, but as
Thou wilt.
And when Judas Iscariot came with
great multitude, and said, "Hail,
Master" and kissed Him. For be
had arranged to betray him with a
kiss. Aud when Peter drew his
sword and wounded one of them. Je-
sus healed him, and said to Peter,
put up thy sword Thinkest thou
that / cannot now pray to My Father,
and he shall presently give Me more
than twelve millions of angels, But
how then shall the scriptures be full
filled, that this it must be-"
Then all the disciples forsook Him
and fled. And Jesus was taken to
Caiphas, the high prieet, and the
council; and Peter followed afar off.
They sought false witness to put Him
to death, aud He answered nothing to
their accusation, When asked if He
were the Christ, He said, Thou hast
said: Nevertheless l say unto you,
hereafter shall We see the Son of man
sitting on the right hand of power,
and coming in the clouds of heaven. "
Then they condemned him to death,
and spit in His face and the servants
struck Him. Then Peter denied Him,
and remembering the word of the
Lord, he went out and wept bitterly.
In the morning Jesus was taken be-
fore PLATE, the Governor. Then Ju.
das Iscariot repented and went and
hanged himself Again Jesus answer
ed nothing to the accusation against
Him.
Pilot asked the mob whether he
should release to them, robber nam
ed Barabbas, or Jesus, according L
his custom at the passover feast. Anc
Pilates wife warned him that Jesu:
was a Just man, and that she had sui
fered many things in a dream becaus,
OF Him. But the chief priests per
suaded the multitude that they SHOULD
ask Barabbas. and destroy Jesus. AnC
when Pilot asked, "What shall ! dc
then with Jesus2' they cried out
/ Cruelty him. Then PLATE willing
to please the mob, said, Il am limo
, cent of the blood of this Just person
see YOU to il" And all the peopl
answered, His blood be on us auC
our children. Then Plate released
the robber unto the people, and de
livered Jesus, when he had scoprge'
Him, to be crucifed
A terrible story, not yet ended bu
al, that you and I can do now, is t
see that our lives please him, "wh
for the JOY that was set before Hin
endured the cross, and to remembe
that without faith it is impossible t
please Him"

given in the story OF the Nineteenth
Georgia. That was a story Of fighting
| quartermasser this one Of the tradi-
tionai @. d. who is everything else but
a fighter.
While the Forty eighth was maneu-
vering around Culpeper before the bat
| tie Of Fredericksburg one Of the soldiers
picked up a clock weight and decided
to have some fun with it. Attaching a
piece CT artillery fuse, he carried it to
fire where he saw tho qua-termaster
and number of others telling campfire
stories. Displaying his contrivance,
which he called a shell. he declared
that he was going to put it into the fire
for the fun of the thing. The @. NJ,
skeptical at first as to the soldier ear
nestness, began to plead with him not to
do it, but when the wag threw it in the
fire the noncombatant broke for the
rear at the first sputter Of the fuse and
didn't stop running until he had dashed
through thicket as thorny as BRAN
BILE bush and tripped over tent rope,
bringing down the pole and setting the
whole camp in an uproar. Whether he
ever learned to take the joke or not his
tory doesn't state, but leaves him sit
ting in his tent all in tremor and
swearing to shoot the next man who
threw shell into the fire in his pres.
snce.
The Forty eighth was again lucky at
Fredericksburg and suffered little loss,
but the hardships of the winter follow
ing made up with interest for all the
fayors of battle. The winter encamp-
ment was at United States ford, point
of danger for Lees army. During Jan
uary and February, 1858, the Georgians
lay at the ford, building Notifications
for its defense. The men had no tents
or other form of shelter than what they
constructed out of materials gathered
in the forest Rations were poor, and
often the men had none at all. Added
to this the clothing was very scant and
the ground covered with snow or ice
most of the time.
Toward the end of February the regi-
ment hailed an order to move out of the
wilderness of suffering, but the change
Was IlOb IUT bH6 UbbLSE dG buG OutS6t,
The soldiers set out with freshly fall
en- snow IS inches deep on the ground
and halted for the night near Freder-
icksburg. 1t rained and then turned
cold, so that the men, lying without
shelter, were first soaked with rain and
then had their clothing frozen till their
bodies were bound in icy armor. Taking
up the march, they moved to Guinea
station and entered quarters in camp
recently vacated by other troops. After
a month of comparative rest the Geor
gians were summoned to the battle Of
Charlottesville. They fought in two
separate affairs, with a loss of 10 killed
and 35 wounded.
In the first fight the boy hero of the
regiment, Captain Kendrick, was killed,
He was only 10 years of age, but was
so ga. liant ON the field that he had been
promoted from the ranks to the head Of
his company by the votes of his COM
rades.
In June the regiment started for
Pennsylvania on a forced march of 20
miles day, with the weather SO hot
that many soldiers tainted on the way.
Soon the pace was reduced to 10 miles
daily, and the column, numbering 325

to the chief command. The ten com
panies forming the regiment were old
local bands. having fancy titles, such
as Guards, ""Tigers" and Rangers. "
The colonel was taken from the only
company bearing the name of "Tigers. !"
He proved worthy the name. for he
stopped bullet in every battle. some
times two and three.
OF course the old companies had their
captains, but none Of them seems to have
rebelled against the jumping of Private
William Gibson TO the colonelcy. They
all stuck to the colors until killed--as
most of them were--or disabled in serv-
ice.

A great deal of heavy marching fell
to the lot of the Forty eighth after Get
tysburg, bat the regiment passed
through the Wilderness and other early
battles of 1864 with little loss. Soon
after reaching Petersburg in June it en-
gagged in an attack ON the Federal posi-
ton on the Weldon railroad The as
sault fell upon Gibbons division Of the
Second corps. Several Federal flags
were taken, and the Georgians faced a
CALLING fire, but drove Gibbons men
from the works and held them. Next
day, June 23, the regiment fought hand
to hand with the Eighty third Pennsyl-
yauia and captured its flag
The last battle recorded in the history
from which these notes are taken was
that Of the Petersburg Crater" where
the regiment charged to the mouth of
the pit under a storm of bullets greater
than ever faced before. The annals say
the dead lay thicker in front of the
Georgians than on any previous field
Three times the staff of the flag was cut
in two by shots and the banner itself
was pierced by 103 bullets that day.
Out of the handful in the regiment 80
were killed and wounded, making a
total in two years of SAT men shot
down. OF the number 1S9 were killed.
With the victims of wounds and disease
the death loss amounted to 550, or 40
per cent of the number enrolled.

In May, 1862. the Forty eighth left
Charleston for the seat of war in Vir
ginia. 1t was full regiment of 1,00C
soldiers.
The first battle of this fine new regi
ment was at Mechaniesville, on the
Chickahominy, June 20. With the Forty.
fourth Georgia and two North Carolina
regiments, constituting Ripley's bri-
gade, it took part in the charge made
about SHUTDOWN that day upon the Fed
eral position at Beaver Dam creek The
Forty fourth Georgia and First North
Carolina marched directly upon the
front of the enemy's position, facing his
batteries and musketry fire.
On the fang of the main column,
where the Forty eighth charged, the
bullets flew like hail, but the regiment,
although it advanced to the bank of the
creek, escaped with loss of only sc
men.
Next day when Lees whole army
attacked Fitz John Porter's line al
Gaines Mill Ripley's brigade lay in re
serve. Although not called into action,
it was under fire some hours, and the
Forty eighth lost nine men killed and
wounded.
