an the Donna Anna; which. If any one had.
he'd most likely got as'inst Spencer's gun:
wharfore. it's as well mebby that this lack
luster feeliu' prevails.
Its about the tenth day since the Dom
ma Anna gladdens US first. Orders comes UP
from Vera cruz for the Pine Knot Cavaliers
TO repair TO the coast an embark for New
Orleans. The word IS passed an our little
jimcrow camp buzzes Xix. bees with US get
tin ready 10 hit the trail. Spencer asks
leave. an then saddles up an starts at
once: he says he's got n trick or two 10
turl in Vera Cruz before We sails. That's
the last we-alis ever beholds Of Lootenant
Jack Spencer.
when Spencer don't show up none in
Vera Cruz, an the ship throws loose with
out him.. he's marked "missin' on the
company's books. IL he's Il private. nov. it
would have been deserted; but bein'
Spencer's an officer, they makes 1t miss
in" An they gets It right at that; Spen-
tin ready to hit the trail. Spencer asks
don't come back to Tennessee none. he
don't even send no word. nor make so much
as n signal smoke 10 let on where he's at.
This we're to some is more or less dlsap-
p'intin'.
"'Thar's n lady back in Tennessee which
Spencer's made overtures to before he goes
to war that time to wed. Young she is:
beautiful. h~igh-grade. corn-fed, an all that:
an comes of one OF the most cleau-straw
families of the whole Cumberland country.

OF two sorts. II a loved one. tender an
troo. turns up missin' at roll call. an the
phenomenon amt accompanied with ex-
plantations. one sort O. thinks he's quit an
the other thinks he's killed. Spencer's in
amorata. Is OF the former. She's got what
the neighbors calls ''hoss sense" She listens
to what little there Is to tell OF Spencer's
fadin' from our midst that Plaza Perdita
day. shrugs her shoulders an turns her
back on Spencer's mem'rr. An the next
news you gets is Of how. inside Of three
months. she jumps some gent who's of his
gyard an Is lulled into %feelin's OF false Sc
coority, ropes. throws. ties an weds him a
heap. an he wakes up to find he's a gone
fawnskin. an to realize his peril after he's
onder It's hoofs. That's what the Cumber-
land lady does. I makes no comments: I
simply rebates 1t. an then opens q door
an let's her out OF the story.

year before ever I hear ag'in OF Lootenant
