A PATHETIC INCIDENT.


Gentle and brave amid the ranks he rode,
And felt the steed beneath him proud
and true:
Gentle and brave The steed beneath him
strode,
And felt my masters hand will guide
me through"
And hour on hour. through dying and
through dead,
And lashed by rain from heaven. and
hail from hell,
From morn to eve. unscathed alike, they
sped.
He saw the shattered limb, the heavins
breast,
And eyes entreating aid he could not
With kiss on kiss the velvet noszle
pressed.
And longed. yet ioathed. its agony to
end.
And needless for awhile how trumpet
blared,
Or round him roared and flashed the
fiery zone.
He, who all day the battles worst had
dared,
Now dared not brave the bivouac alone.
Then in one sob fond farewell he spoke,
The loaded death with hand reluctant
drew.
o dear dumb friends! o patient Of our
yoke!
There's many q heart, ye know not,
aches for you.

just outside. ''They seem to have got

these, firing on the Red Cross"
For a few seconds there was silence
as the men realized their danger. The
angry growl OF the quick-frers was
every now and then punctuated by
the long, deep-mouthed baying of the
larger guns
"They are aiming at usl" shouted a
man. running into the tent with his
right arm hanging helplessly by his
side.
Immediately there was violent
concussion; the air was filled with
dust, smoke and pungeant smell,
and the end of the tent lit up with a
or four men sprang forward, and the
fire was extinguished.
''The devils are firing at us!" cried
the sergeant. "The next shot will
count a bit II I am not mistaken"
Scarcely were the words out Of his
mouth when huge rent suddenly
opened in the canvas, and q shell
dropped right into the middle of the
tent. The wounded ducked under
their covering as II they would bury
themselves beneath the ground. The
doctor, with another, rushed forward;
but Private Cory was before them.
"Not you. doctor!" he shouted, as
he Aeized the bomb
'Quick, my man! Into the bucket
with It'll" said the doctor. "No!
There's no water! My Cod"
But Cory had dashed through the
opening and was running like hare.
They were all dumfounded for mo-
ment. Then a cheer broke from them
when they realized what he was doing
"a cheer In which dying men joined.
Throw II away! Now! Throw I'll"
yelled the doctor after him.
Still he ran. The music of what he
knew was their applause rang in his
ears. Nothing had ever sounded so

more yards, then with a tremendous

fell on his face.
