Richmond. Va, November 4.-There is now living in the city of Richmond a mid de aged woman, well preserved and still beautiful, although the mother of grown up family, who was the heroine of one Of the prettiest romanees that ever filled the pages of the great book of fact which is written with words that are stronger than fiction.
 It was a war romance, and the scene was laid in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, where the two young people lived. One whom we will call Morgan, for the lack of better name, loved one Addie, and when the war broke out in 1881 the two were all but engaged.
 All butt
 What a world of difference lies in these two little words. As the powder smell rose in the south, Addie became fired with the spirit of patriotism. She loved Morgan pretty well-but not well enough to marry him! Now, if he were only soldier!
 Addie and Morgan talked 1t over, and It was agreed that he should go to the war and win his stripes. And perhaps, atter he had won them, and after peace had been restored, who knows, but
 Addie would say no more. She could not consis tently do so. She was not in love- In fact her son today says she was even al that time dead cold, on him. But Mor- gan would not take no for an answer. lie wanted Addie to marry him and as she was a. very progressive, proud spirited girl he faneied that the only way to compel her love was by winning laurels in battle.
 Addie was fierce little rebel at heart a real southerner, Confederate to the Done and ready to shed her last drop of blood for her country. She gloried in battle talk

 A RTCFHrIOND GIRL

But if Addie was thus hckle she was punished for itl
 As soon as Morgan got into the fleld ne wrote to Addie, but she, wicked girl, aia not answer him. Perhaps she would have told you with southern girls soft, sweet accent, that she did not correspond Wlth young men. Perhaps she would nave Inaoe the strong minded excuse that sne was busy fitting out soldiers with lint and band ages. Or she may have been just naughty and said to herself, "Oh, bother!'
 But poor Morgan in the field did not take the matter lightly. Having gone 10 the war for a girl he wanted the girls love; He was not contented to walt; ne Wanteu to tell her his love and to hear her say that there was hope for him.
 So he wrote again. Here is the letter The southern veterans who were at fore Wright will recognize the stationery and will see at the head, the face of the noble gentleman whom they so dearly loved.
 There were brave deeds performed at
 5rt Wright. And blood was shed by the bucket The earth was dyed with 1t so that the grass did not grow for years The let ter is reproduced here precisely as he wrote it. You can see the same trembly lines, un- certain yet firm.
 Dear Addie:-
 "The heading of this epistle will inform you of my whereabouts. l belong to the Southern Confederacy for the next twelve months. Camp life is bitter life, sweet tened by the reflection that l am obey1ng the call of my country and the desire of you-the object of my existence. speak positively from the fact that you are southern rights woman. To secure your love and approbation is the height or my ambition. This, however, is an old tale, often told. I wrote you few weeks ago
The age-herald., 1899-11-05

and amused herself making small articles stages of the war and the women of the south had not learned what their soldiers wanted, nor what they could do for them. A stern lesson was to come later, a lesson which would tell the taste of bitterness, a lesson which, while awful in it's rigor, would develop the southern woman and make her the proud self-reliant woman which she is today.
 But our story is of long before that. Then the southern gorl was a doll, pretty plaything, thoroughbred lady, who could ride a horse and entertain a houseful of people, but who knew nothing of the big world outside
 Addie loved an ideal; she may have read about him in her novels; may have wept over him in the tales of old time chivalry and war, but she did not know him In the flesh and she did not see him in Morgan. No, he would not do.
 Then he suggested that he go to the war. To this she eagerly agreed No, she would not give him her promise first, but she would think of him and remember him al- ways.
 So Morgan went to the war and Addie stayed a home.
 Perhaps, as soon as he was gone, she thought of another hero. Perhaps any one of dozen of her young men filled her heart equally with him. Perhaps she sent oth- CTS to the war determined with southern girls coquetry to test each; and to marry the one who stood the ordeal best.
The age-herald., 1899-11-05

and no answer yet-what damper to my feelings.
 q sometimes think that I was born to suffer; consequently l find myself exclaim- ing who has sinned, l or my progenitors? If entreaty and importantly could avail anything with you I certainly should have succeeded. We are expecting an attack every day from the Cairo troops. We are well fortifed-near ten thousand troops here. There will undoubt tedly be great bloodshed at this point, and it may be that I may fall a living sacrifice in defense of my country. If so, to know that you love me would rob death of its terrors. The idea of my dying unloved by you is intol- erable. I expected to return next Septem- Der and claim you as mine, but circum- stances make it impossible. So ask when the war is over will you be mine? Please write me soon. The value that I set upon a letter from you can be felt but not ex- pressed. When the musket balls fall thick around me I will think or and fight the harder for my Addie. You must excuse every imperfection Tn this letter. I am using poplar log for my desk"
 After he had written the letter he put it in his pocket and decided to mail it at the first opportunity.
 But the opportunity never came, That very day the garrison at Fort Wright was surprised and a firence skirmisil followed. Morgan fell shot through the heart. The Cairo troops engaged the entire ten thous- and at Fort Wright and Morgan was one of the first of the living sacrifices. Who
The age-herald., 1899-11-05

knows but that death was. as he patheti- cally said robbed of its terrors," at the last moment by the thought that, after all she might love him.
 After the battle Addie's father, who was tn the same regiment, buried Morgan but, before he laid him under the sod, he took the papers from his pocket and among them was the letter to Addie.
 Well, the father read 1t and sent it home to his daughter. She had heard of Nor gan's fall but was not prepared for the let ter. When she read 1t through, she was heart broken and the boy who had failed to win her love in his life time won it in death. He had died to get that which he so much wanted And it came to him, a tardy rewardl
 After this sad episode Addie determined

10 live and die maiden; and though she was pretty and had many suitors, she would marry none.
 By and by, however, the right man came along, man from Richmond, and Addis married him, though before she did so, she told him ali about the boy of the battle field who had died to win her love; and she also told him that she could never love anyone else as we'll as she loved him, when it was too late!
 That was a long time ago, and today Addie, happy with a grown up family around her, in her comfortable Richmond home, seldom thinks of Morgan, but when sha doas so at is with a pang of remorse; for she can never forget his devotion, nor the sad letter he write on his death day
