! from the Union camp and about 500
yards from the Shenandoah River. He

Z to 8 p. M, and the next morning from
1 to 3 o'clock. The pickets heard the
Confederate army crossing the Shenan-
doah River, but as they had been in
formed on Oct. Is that Clusters cavalry
would camp in their front, they mistook
the enemy for the Union cavalry.
About $3.50 n. m, Oct. 10, Sergeant
and six men were sent to reinforce the
pickets, the writer being one of the Party.
After they had taken their position on
the picket line the dense fog which had

the same time they heard heavy firing to
the right, in the direction Of Strasburg.
The rebels moved forward and fired a vol

90 yards away. After returning the fire
the pickets withdrew to the reserve post,
and soon the entire body was driven back
on the regiment, about 1000 yards away.
Heavy firing ensued and Maj. Furney was
taken prisoner. OF the picket party, all

he tried hard to capture the place, and
undoubtedly would have done so, had il
not been for our gunboats, lying off
the city, throwing shot and shell over the

federate forces outnumbered ours three to
one; great many of our boys were ON fhe

the superior numbers Of the Confederates.

A Southern Unionist.

Comrade Aug. NJ. Bolding, of Pasceola,
Ark, writes that he has been a reader
Of The National Tribune since 1880. Coin
rade Bolding was n Southern Unionist.
His mother was a widow with three sons
and one daughter. At family meeting
it was decided that they would remain
loyal to the Union. His elder brother, a
half-brother, brother-in-law and several
nelghbors, at night meeting in the
woods, decided to proceed to the Federal
lines. Comrade Bolding and his younger
brother decided to remain at home. The
younger brother at that time was only IA
years old and the writer was but 90 Com
rade Bolding for six long months made
his home in the woods, his only compan-
ion being large dog. At night he slept
in cypress tree with the dog as guard
One morning he was awakened by his dog
and found two young women, whose hus-
bands were in the Confederate army, gath
erlng grapes near his hiding place Neither
OF these women could write, and as their
husbands were in the Confederate army
Comrade Bolding in return for food wrote
letters to these rebel soldiers. The women
kept him supplied with food for several
weeks, but fearing capture he moved to
another point in the woods. Later he was
taken prisoner by band of guerrillas
ana held until July, 1862, when he es-
capped and went home. His mother sue
ceeded in reaching the Federal lines. 30

HIS INCREASE CLAIM REJECTED.

D. j. Matheny, Co. f, 55th ILL.,, Chand-
Ter, Okla, complains of very harsh treat
ment at the hands of Commissioner
Evans. The comrade writes he received
a gunshot wound in the right forearm at
Kenesaw Mountain, June 27, 1864, and
On account of such wound was granted a
pension of Sc per month. In October,
1893, it became necessary to amputate
the arm in order to save his life. Com
rade Matheny applied for an increase un-
der the old law, and filed the aftidavits
of four doctors to prove that amputation
was necessary. Three pieces of lead
were taken from the wound at the time
of amputation. March %, 1901, the COM
rade received a notice from II. Clay
Evans rejecting the claim on the ground
that SO is all you are entitled to under
the law; amputation of right arm above
the elbow is not accepted as pension
cause" This decision was rendered by
the Pension Bureau in the face of the
testimony of four doctors who had at
tended Comrade Matheny.
