But to return to Mr.. John Tisdale: He de-
termined to proceed through to Mill Creek
trusting to so impress the Confederate sol
diers on the route regarding his mission
that they would permit him to pass. When
he reached the first outpost beyond Strib-
ling Springs his pass was demanded, but
upon hearing Mr.. Tisdale's story the
officer permitted him to pass, and gave him
note for presentation TO any other Con-
federate soldiers he might encounter
he was welcomed by all. The engagement
OF his son to Helen was duly discussed and
happily arranged to the entire satisfaction
of all the parties concerned.
Mr. Tisdale soon took his departure, his
son riding the horse, while the loving, faith.

Not very many months subsequent to
these events the Confederate banner was
fured forever. and George and Helen were
quietly married.

employ at Staunton. A few weeks before
leaving this post l called TO bid all the
Tisdale family good-by. Returning by a
shorter route we met Federal soldier and
particularly bright-looking youth, both
on horseback.
During our brief conversation learned
that the soldier was Serg't Hawkins, OF the
pendleton County home guards. or swamp

that the youth was Charles Morris. from
near Mill Creek. and was on a visit to his
sister, Mrs. George Tisdale. l had never

when they both laughed heartily and ad-
mitted the fact, and the soldier recalled
having met me at Capt. Bonds at Mill
Creek in '64. and also remembered the story
of our barricading the house of Mrs. Mallow,
to resist the rebel raiders. We then shook
hands and parted with these gallant men;
and this closes our little romance of the

WONDERFUL NATURAL CURIOSITY.
About 35 or 40 miles from Staunton,
Va, and about 80 miles north of the Great
Bald Mountain, in West Augusta County,
is one of the most wonderful natural curl
osities of the North Mountain. Al this
point, at some unknown past time. the
mountain has been literally cleft asunder
crosswise. There remains between the
two parts of the mountain rocky. sandy
gorge extending from near Pendletom
County through the mountain to Augusta
County on the east. This mighty gorge
is very broad at each entrance, and grad
ually grows narrower toward the center and
point there is Il pathway TO the other side
of sthe gorge not more than three feet wide,

and wonderfully concealed by nature with
a very thick growth Of young oak bushes
five or six feet in hight.
The writer passed over this strangely
concealed pathway in 1864 during the
month of July, guided by the famous
guide and hunter, James Todd, and his
son, Washington Todd. BY the very few

had shrewdly surmised that the "spooks'

and the father having returned. consulta
ton was held when it was unanimously de
cided that the three Young men should
immediately depart through the Con-
federate lines for Mill Creek. Hasty prepa-
| rations were made; each was supplied with
a good six-shooter and a few rounds of
ammunition, light overcoat for use in the
mountains at night, and some uncooked
bacon and bread. while Robertson returned
| To his home to bid good-by to his family and
supply himself with means.
Mr.. TiSdale divided all the good money
III his possession with his two sons, keeping
one-third for himself. There was none
other 10 bid good-by, as Mr.. John Tisdale
had been widower for several years. The
young schoOlmaSter soon returned. and the
three young men, after bidding Mr. T'isdaie
an aftectionatc good-by, crossed the pike
alter midnight. shaping their course
directly Tor the Mennonite settlement near
the Stribling Springs, some IA miles east
OF Staunton, where George TiSdale was
well and favorably known, and where he
was informed that his party could not pass
through White Oak Lick to procure the
services of Mr. Todd, the guide, as the road
and by-WayS from the Springs to near the
Lick wer" guarded by Confederate cav
airy, their purpose being 10 attack Mr.. Todd
and the refugees, having learned that a
party was about 10 leave White Oak Lick
ior the North under the guidance of Mr..
Todd. Their Mennonite friends advised
that the party should move along the base
OF the North Mountain towards the north
until near the Great Divide" then take an
oblique mountain path and reach the
spooks' secret pathway; sleep, then cross
over and pass down the mountains TO
Pendleton and to Mill Creek village, the
most of the route George Tisdale being ia
miliar with.
The party rapidly passed on and reached
the 'Spooks' Crossing" at sundown, where
they rested and slept until morning, when
they, after refreshing themselves at the
spring and cooking and eating some bacon.
cautiously proceeded on their way by much
the same route pursued by the writer of this
story nearly "a year later. Reaching the
foot of the mountain and crossing the
south Fork" they reached II point within a
mile. or less. of the village Of Mill Creek.
Worn out by their long tramp. they could not
go farther; they left the road some 30 yards,
and near little ridge dropped down on
s me leaves and slept soJIndly. This was
about midnight of the second day after
leaving the Mennonite settlement.

house then went into committee of the
whole and took up the consideration of
the army bill. MIR. Hull explained the
details of the bill. which he said fol-
lowed practically the scheme already
twice endorsed by the house.
Mr.. Cochran (MissourD. who follow
ed Mr.. Hull. introduced the political
phase of the question. He charged

and he appealed to his colleagues to
stand unflinchingly against the sub
