MANCHESTER, KY, July 2S.-Five
gamer men never looked through the
sights of a Winchester than Granville,
George, Pies, Carlo and Peter Philpot.
Granville, or "Peg-Leg," as his friends
call him, was a Federal soldier and several
until the battle of Stone river, where he
lost his right leg. He was noted for his
cool courage In battle and his universal
good-humor. George Philpot has been
forced into several ARRAYS and has al
ways carried himself with the true Phil
pot courage. Pies Philpot ST. has always
been of a quiet disposition, but when the
emergency comes up he stands his ground
without fiinching. Peter and Carlo are
young men. In the battle with Aaron
Morris and the Griffins on Monday of last
week these young men distinguished
themselves by keeping the enemy at bay
and routing him. 1t was Peter who shot
off the top of Aaron Morris head and put
several more bullets through him before
he fell from his horse. He is remarkably
quick on the trigger and is considered
one of the best rife and revolver shots in
Clay county. He is an athlete in build
and appearance and can walk twenty-five
miles a day over the mountains. Carlo
has just attained his majority and has
boyish appearance, but he, too, is handy
