guide was known from its formation as
the "Old Iron Brigade" That statement
is incorrect. The brigade in which the
22d served was never known as the Iron
Brigade. He further says that the bri-
gade composed Of the above-named reSi-
ments was the First Brigade, First Divi-
sion, First Corps. That statement is also
incorrect.
No brigade was ever mentioned as the
Iron Brigade until Sept II, 1862, at the
battle Of South Mountain, Nd, when the
title was given to the brigade composed
of the I'd, 9th and 7th Wis. and the 18th
Ind. This was the First Brigade, First
Division. First Corps.
The brigade to which ID. S. Chaplin be
longed to was the Second Brigade, First

The Southern Unionists.

Capt. Thomas T. Leonard, Co. /, Sd
VT, Austin, Mimi, writes:
Il have often thought about those gal
liant Union men who lived on the border
of and in the rebel States during the
civil war, and what sacrifices they made
for the Union. All honor to them. They
were brave men, and women, too, for they
all suffered rather than give up their ale
glance TO the Union. / would esteem
it q great pleasure to clasp the hand of
each and tell how much / appreciate what
they did and suffered that the Union
might live. The soldiers of the Northern
States, with our loved ones far removed
from the immediate scenes of conflict,
were simply risking themselves, knowing
that their dear ones were safe. But the
border Unionists risked not only them
selves, but the happiness, safety and,
many times. the lives of those dear to
them. They were grand, noble men and
women, and they should ever be remem-
bered as those who offered all for the
preservation cf this Union, deserving of
all praise for their loyalty and patriotism.

Lemonade and Iced Ten.

Lemonade as it is usually made is too
weak and is not allowed to stand long
enough on the ice. Made with plenty
of lemons and nearly as many oranges
with carbonic water and some fruit it
is incompatible.
Iced tea is a grateful dinner drink
and should be poured warm from the
pot upon the ice in the glass that 1t is
TO be served in. The lemon and sugar
can be added at the discretion of the
individual. Coffee frappe is delightful
In summer when it is very cold and
served with whipped cream.

In locating the Virginia and South
western railroad through the AlleghaEics
from Virginia into Tennessee advantage
was taken of a natural tunnel which is
one of the wonders of the world. The
distance through this tunnel is about
1000 feet. and so nearly perfect is the
tunnel that only GO feet Of blasting was
necessary. The region is of limestone

Mrs. c. Muller, probably one Of the

Literally the name describes the de-

patients In the use of the device by
