AT GETTYSBURG.
O. the Field Ano.r the Enemy ..a
in the Hespitals Cared for
~ Patriotic Women.

1t may be interesting to the present
generation to know things not re-
corded in history that happened in the
dark days Of the nations life, and how
q certain feeling existed among some
who were fighting against Old Glory,
and also how the wants of the wound
ed and dying were ministered to by
those noble women whose lives are de-
voted to purity and to God. and by
those whose patriotism was the bright
est jewel in their every deed.
About noon on the first day of July,
1868, at the memorable battle of Gettys-
burg, just as our lines were being
driven back, and while trying to lift
the colors of our regiment that had
fallen to the ground, was struck down
by two balls. This happened on knoll
back Of the seminary, toward Willough-
by run. Our line fell back about so
yards farther. then rallied, and for q
half hour held that position. To be eff
fective the firing from both sides had
to be as close to the top of the knoll as
possible. You can imagine what an
interesting time had during that half
hour, as received a third shot from
our own men, and had my haversack
and cartridge box torn from me while
lying in that position.
About four o'clock, after our men had
been driven to Cemetery hill, q North
Carolina lieutenant, belonging to the
regiment commanding the rear guard
of the confederate army, approached
me. He was very jubilant, and told of
the great victory that they had won,
how they were going On in the morning
to Harrisburg, thence to Washington
city, and SO on until the whole northern
army was wiped out.
told him that such might be the
case, but that moro than likely they
would find some obstacles on their way.

WAR STORIES NOT RECORDED
A. Old Detroit veteran Tell. some
Funny Tales-A Sample Of
His Stock.

An old soldier Of Detroit has q
couple OF stories of the late war that
will not be preserved in the archives of
accepted history.
"In the Pioneer brigade to which I
belonged" relates this veteran, "there
was q Wisconsin man who seemed to
have the gift of perpetual good feeling.
After Bragg had left Tullahoma ON his
way to some safer locality. we pushed
on to Elk river to repair bridge. The
Wisconsin man, whom remember aa
Hank, went down the stream little
way to take swim, and while he was
.disporting himself in the water five Of
Bragg's boys appeared on the bank.
covered him with their guns and cor
daily invited him to come in out of the
wet. He promptly yielded to the per-
suasion, dressed while laughingly tell
ing his captors that if there had been
but four of them he would have de-
clined to recognize them as his supe-
rior land force, and fought them from
the water.
''While the prisoner was awaiting
an order to march. the five surprised
him by stacking their arms, notifying
him that they surrendered, and asking
to be taken into camp. Like hundreds
of others in lower Tennessee during
the summer of 1868, they were tired Of
the fight and glad to get within our
lines.
"Thc last time was at national
encampnent came across the hero of
the occasion, and I'll be blowed if he
wasn't telling in solemn earnest how
he made sudden dash upon those five
Johnnies, surrounded them, disarmed
them and marched them to hendquar-
ters. Such stories are apt to grow,
even with one who participated in the
event, and l was convinced that Hank
thought he was telling the gospel
truth"
The veterans other story is about
big member of the Red Sash brigade,
who had done yeoman service in the
pine woods of Michigan before he en-
tered the army. II didn't see this"
he acknowledges, "but 1 can bring the
proof of it If it be demanded. At the
Bull Run retreat the woodsmanstopped
to assist wounded comrade. While
he was doing this Good Samaritan
work he was suddenly surrounded by
pursuers and ordered to surrender.
He had not yet been wcaned from the
favorite method of fighting in the lum-
ber camps, so he threw aside his gun
and bayonet as useless membranes
and sailed in fbr rough and tumble. re-
peatedly announcing that he could lick
the whole outfit. The onslaught was
so sudden and SO ludicrous that those
assaulted were temporarily paralyzed
by laughter and half dozen of them
had gone down with damaged heads or
bleeding noses before they could rally.
Then the bold runcher was taken by
good-natured cxertion of force. and
was only reconciled when assured
that some man would be found to do
him battle in rough and tumble. De

strange thoughts about the flag and the
struggle that was going on in our land.
This incident showed the feeling
that existed among large number of
the confederate troops, and especially
among those of North Carolina. What
a glorious inspiration it is to-day to
see both the north and the south Wy
ing with each other to show who can
pay the most honor to Old Glory.
The next evening about five o'clock
four of our men who had been cap
tured carried me about a mile and put
me in the basement of barn. The
following morning, the memorable Sd
of July, found me right along the con-
federate line of battle, with battery
mt each end of the barn. Our batteries
were sending messages in the shape of
shot and shell intended for the rebels,
but we were in as much danger
and as liable to catch them as they
were, ard it soon became evident that
the barn was in danger of being fired
and the 500 or 600 men who were quar-
tered there burned up.
Then It was that the kind-hearted
confederate commander gave orders
that the men be carried out to place
of safety. We were taken to house
