News From company d.
CAMP LEE. NEAR cHARlnsros.

May z, 1895
EDITOR SPIRIT With your permis-
sion we will send you a few items from
our camp. Everything is moving along
with military discipline and the boys are
fast becoming accustomed to camp life.
There has been very little drilling, the
most duty that has been done is guard
duty. The boys all with one accord say
they are having an immense time. The
rumors of war do not, as one would sup
pose, put damper on their enjoyment.
The only trouble that is being experienced
now is swimming through the mud. It
commenced raining on Thursday and the
elements are still falling. and makes our
camp quite deso1ate looking place; but
outside of this. everybody is content and
calmly waiting for orders to move to the
front. The boys are quite loud in their
praise of Capt. Pyne, who is doing every
thing in his power for their comfort and
enjoyment. Those who remained here
were sorry to see the rest of the company
go home. but as they could not be forced
to stay and thought best to go home,
those who did stay wish them Gods
speed.
At two o'clock we were called before
the Examining Broad, and ont of the
company of 90 there were 81 who passed
a successful examination. Capt. Pyne is
deserving of much credit for the honors
which are paid to old Co. l. May the
flag of the brave ever float over the rep
resentatives of noble old Jefferson. and
may her sons receive their share of its
glories. We will close for this time,
promising to let you hear from us again.

WRITTEN BY JOHN T. HUMPHREYS


The following song written by Major John
T. Humphreys, found in an old music book in
possession of Mrs. Col. John T. Gibson and
kindly contributed to the columns of the
SPIRIT OF JEFFERSON, was set to music in
1851 by j. Il. Heuitt, and at that time was
much sung in tho parlors of the South. Ma
jOr Humphreys is the brother of David
Humphreys, Esq, of Norfolk, Va. The au-
thor of the song was born and brought up on
the farm pear this place now belonging to the
Misses McCurdy, studied law with Col John
II, Gibson in this place. removed to Little
Rock, Ark where he was a successful prac-
titioner at the bar, and after the war between
the States settled In San Francisco, and in the
midst of q lucrative practice died about three
or four years ago. During our war he COM
manded battery, and did good service for
the stars aud bars:
See the golden star above us
Printed on the scarlet fold,
Wrought by those who always love us,
Flag of Cuba fring'd with gold.
Come to battle, southern legions?
Conc for freedoms cause,
o come
Till your tread shall shake the regions
Where VIC offer Jou home.
CHORUS.
Flag of Cuba! dipp'd in scarlet,
Southern beauties proudly smile
On thy bright and golden starlit
Floating Ger our sunny isle.
Monarch fall and thrones are crumbling,
While we battle to he free.
Freedoms thundcrs far are rumbling
Der the land and on the sea.
Blood hath reek'd on broad Savannah,
Shall that blood flow unredressed,
Give the breeze our bounteous banner,
And the struggle will DC bless'd.

The Secretary of War has notified Gov.
Atkinson that the West Virginia troops
will be sent to Chicamauga as soon as
mustered in. It is now given out that
eighteen thousand regulars will be sent
to Cuba as speedily as possible. to be fol-

Chicamauga. It therefore seems more
than probable that our West Virginia
boys may have taste of real war, in its
worst phases, in very short while.
