liberal and doesn't know how many

always said that the things Jim Sloan
did ought to be put in book form. As
brilliant. daring scout, he had no
match. | used to go to see Gen.
Hampton nearly every year and the
old commander never tired Of talking
about the clever tricks and thrilling
adventures of Jim Sloan"
Mr.. Harris was told he would be
excused from further talk, if he would
only tell Of his last ambush of the
enemy after the war. "Oh, yes," he
said, that was after the surrender.
A garrison Of federal troops we're sta
toned in Concord and they had been
terrorising the people, depredating
and stealing nightly nearly everything
they could fnd. One Sunday they
came to our house near Poplar Tent,
thinking there was no one at home.
Father, mother, sister and Brother
Jay, had gone TO church. 1 caught
three of them in the act of stealing
and marching them to the house at
the L.stol's point 1 made them pull off
their coats, l took cow-hide in one
hand and pistol in the other and
gave each one 100 lashes. They cried
for pain and offered to pay any price
to be let off. Brother Charles who
had been asleep was awakened by the
noise. was exhausted, and he then
laid on the rawhide while I continued
to cover them with the pistol. The
shirt of every one Of them was red
when they left, and no Yankee or
freedman ever stole anything from us
for four years afterwards.
Father, fearing they would take
my life for the chastisement, went to
consult Gen. D. II. Hill, who was
then editing The Land We Love in
Charlotte. Gen. Hill laughed till he
YES =esk, aud assured father that
depredators would not trouble us
again, and they didn't.
1t is just to Mr.. Harris to say that
he will be surprised to see this article
in print. Shakespeare Harris is
modest man, and can rarely be pre-
vailed upon to talk about himself, and
when he does, he always minimises
his share in the exploit OK battle.

sesame" to his heart. Start the con-
versation about Jim Sloan, the friend
and sharer of his privations and dan.
gers. he will incidentally introduce
the parts he also played in important
dramas. He could not do otherwise,
for the lives of Sloan and himself are
interviewer in the same crimsoned
warp and woof.
My explanation to Mr.. Harris for
thus publishing private conversation
is that he possesses the knowledge Of
much that should be made history in
the recital Of the leading events and
forces Of the civil conflict. Wade
Hampton, in discussing his troops in
action, once told friend that if he
had "a battalion composed Of men Ike
Shakespeare Harris and Jim Sloan, he
could whip the largest army in the
world"

The Duke Of Wellington once met
by sccident an officer in state of ine-
briefly. "Look here, sir" said the
Iron Duke, "what would you do if
you met one Of your men in the con-

officer drew himself up, gave the mill

gravity: 81 would not condescend to

He returned home last week, and has
some interesting stories to tell about
the mammoth crowd Of visitors pres

suffered by many Of them. Among
other things he said that he stood in
line for two or three days while there
in the hope OF reaching the railroad
validating Office and finally abandoned
the attempt, being apparently no near
er success when he gave up than
when he started. He said that the
railroads gave notice that they would
recognize tickets that had not been
validated, and this was why he did
not hold out to the end. Mr.. Epps
relates story something like this:
"The train stopped at small town
