 "Don't you hear that faint rumb1ing noise, Phil? That's the hoof beats of cavalry"
 "Silence there!'' called the colonel.
 No-one spoke again but, bending my ear forward, I could hear the far drum of thehorses' hcofs, and knew that the English army was coming. Old Put raised his head and snutfed the air. A red gleam appeared upon the horizon and broadened rapidly. A thrill and a deep murmur ran the length and breadth of our army.
 "Oh, if those militiamen will only stand until the general bids them re- tire!'' groaned the colonel. That he believed they would not I knew, since it is hard thing for new men to stand the rush of seasoned army superior in numbers and equip ment.

 We were but little army, only 900 strong, but many of us had come great distances and from places wide apart. An arc of ], ,OOO miles would scarce cover all our homes. There were the militia, South Carolinians and Georgians, raw troops, whom one can never trust; then the little remnant of the brigade that De Kalb had led on the fatal day of Camden, splendid soldiers whose line the whole British army could not brcaa, the survivors now eager to ayenge the disgrace their brethren suffered on that day; then the stapch Virginia troops, that we knew would never fail, and near them our two or three score of cavalry men under Westinghouse little army, I say again, but led by such leaders as Morgan, Washington, Howard and Pickens! Down the slopes the sentinels were on watch, but there was no fear of a surprise, for the scouts were just bringing ill word that Tarleton could not come before daylight, and then, owing to the slope and the open ground, his approach would be seen for great distance.
 The new men talked the most, some about the coming battle, eagerly, volu- bly,, others about things the farthest from it, but in the same eager, voluble, unreal tone. The veterans were silent mostly, and already with the calm and hardihood of long usage were seeking the rest and sleep which they knew they would need A tall, thin man, with wild face, whom I took to be one of the preachers at the great revival meetings so common on the border, rose in the midst of the camp and be- gan to speak Some listened. and some

 The long line of the British overlap ped the Continentals, whom they out numbered three to one, and the general, whose gigantic figure l could see through the haze of smoke, ordered them to retreat lest they should be f1anked.
 Again the British cheer boomed out when they saw the regulars giving ground, for now they were sure that victory was theirs, though more hardly won than they had thought. But the retreat of the regulars was only feint and to give time for the militiamen be- hind them to come again into action General Morgan galloped toward us, waving his sword to Washington. and every one of us knew that our moment had come.
 'Forwardn n' was the single command of our leader, and the reins and the sa- bers swung free as we swept in semi circle around the line of our friends and then at the enemy. At the same moment the regulars, ceasing to yield, charged the astonished foe and poured i'll a volley at close range, while the militiamen threw themselves in g solid mass upon the British flank.
 We of the cavalry were but 80 strong, with 50 more sncunted volunteers be- hind us under Major Mccall, but we were compact body of strong horses and strong horsemen, with shortened rifles and flashing sabers, and we were driven straight at the heart of the enc my like the cold edge of q chisel.
 We slashed into the British, already reeling from the shock of the .Continen tals and the militiamen, and they crumpled up before us like dry paper before fire. Our rifles were e,nptied, and the sabers were doing the silent but more deadly work Amid all the Wild din of the shouting and the musketry and the blur of the smoke and the flame knew little that was doing except hack, hack, and I was glad of it. could hear steel gritting on bone, and the smell of leather and smoke and blood arose, but the smoke was still in my eyes, and could only see enough to strike and keep on striking.

 "They don't appear to move,' whis- pered Patterson. ''Their line looks as firm as if it were made of iron.''
 Hike untempered iron, guess, :" replied--"break like glass at the first shot,
 A bugle sounded in the front of the British lines, and its notes, loud and mellow, came to us, but from our ranks rose only the-heavy breathing and the shuffling of men and horses
 The trumpet call was followed by a cheer from more than thousand threats. and then the British rushed upon us. The brass fieldpieces on their Hanks opened with the thunder that be- tokens the artillery, and mingled with their roar were the rattle of the small arms, the throb of the drums and the cla1norous hoof beats of their numerous cavalry.
 The face of their red line blazed with fire, their red uniforms glowing through it like a bloody gleam, while the pol ished bayonets flashed in front.
 ''They are firing too soon and coming too fast,'' said Colonel Washington. By God, look at those militiamenl ] They are standing like the Massachu- setts farmers at Bunker Hill.''
 It was so. The raw line of plowboys never wavered. It bent nowhere and was still as straight and strong as an iron bar. The plowboys kNelt down, and, as the British cheer rose and the red line flaming in front swept nearer, up went the long barreled border rifles fancied that could hear Pickens' com:-:c.cd to fire, but l did not, and then asl the rifles along a line sixth of mile long were fired so close to- gether that the discharge was like the explosion of the greatest cannon in all the world.
 The smoke rose in a thick black cloud, which moment later foated dozen feet above the earth and revealed the British squares, shattered and stopped, the ground in front of them red with the fallen, the officers shouting and re- forming their lines, while our own blow lads, still as steady as the hills, were reloading their rifles with swift and steady hands.

Even as our cheer was echo- ing it was delivered with all the cool ness and deadly precision of the first. Again the British line reeled and stop ped, but they were veterans, led by the fiery Tarleton, and they came on third time, only te meet the third of those deadly yolleys, which swept down their front lines and blocked the way with their own dead and dying.
 "The battle is won already" shouted Colonel Washington, land it's the
 farmer boys of South Carolina and Georgia who have won it''
 Never did veteran troops show more gallantry and tenacity than those same farmer boys on that day. Two volleys were all that were asked of them, yet not merely once or twice, but many times, they poured in their deadly vol leys at close range, again and again hurling back the British veterans, who doubled them in number and were SUD- ported by artillery and many cavalry,
 while we old soldiers in the two lines
 behind stood silent, not a gun or a sa-
 Der raised, and watched their valor. They retired at last, not broken, but in perfect order and at the command of Pickens, that we who stood behind them might have the chance to do our part of
 the days work.
 The smoke hung low i'll clouds and half hid either army, British and Amer ican. A brilliant sun above pierced through it in places and gleamed on clumps of men, some fallen, some still fighting. Shrieks and groans strove for | place with the curses and shouts. Again rose the British cheer from the threats of all those who stood, for, the militiamen retiring before them, they thought it was battle won, and | they charged with fresh courage and
 vigor, pouring forward in a red ava
