After hundreds had thus expressed for
our beloved chief their affection and sorrow
there came a young and stalwart cavalry
man with widespread sombrero, with rat
Ting sword and glngling spurs. Selling
the Generals hand in both of his he gave
a vigorous shake, and, with the tears
coursing down his cheeks. exclaimed, God
bless you, Generall Never mind, General.
We'll give EN- hell. yeti" Then. withdraw
ing TO a nearby plot of grass, he lay down
upon his face and wept. We could but
smile through our tears. 1t was indeed
almost a transition from the sublime to the
ridiculous, yet from the ~fullness of his
true heart he but expressed the sentiment
OF the thousands around, who would cheer
fully have sacrificed their lives for the
great man whom We all loved and whom
we to this day believe the greatest and no
blest man this country has ever produced.
With Il few s~ympathizing friends, whose
kindred feeling made them wonGrous
kind We retired to q convenient log 10
cogitate upon our future prospects. Soon
the Federal soldiers began to mingle with
ours, offering such consolation as they
could. not only in words, but in food and
drink. I was approached by a late enemy
who bore upon his shoulders several haver-
sacks of bread, meat and numerous can
teens of whisky.

during the whole war, having gene down
to Fort Moultrle December q, 1850. the day
after Major Anderson had abandoned that

to many of the dangers OF battle, and had

a few occasions when our reverse had COM
PEELED retreat, as at Sharpsburg and Gettys-

retreat was deliberate and orderly; there
was no hurry, no confusion. no disorder, and
SO We felt but little care or worry. How
different our experience at this time of
defeat and retreat! From the day on which
our lines were broken below Petersburg
according to my recollection, on the
third day of ApriD. until the morning
of the 9Th, it was a constant run both night
and day, with the never-ending accompani-
ment of cannon or musketry to spur US on

Soldiers Lived on Corn
Bread for Many Days.

We felt the full meaning for the first
time, of a retreat, and realized how our
friends on the other side must have en-
loved themselves at Bull Run or at second
Manassas. With little time or place to
sleep, and with less to eat, one may per-
haps imagine what our condition was when
We came to a halt near AppomattoN on the
morning of the 9Th. Like many others, l
had subsis.ed for many days on corn bread,
with no accompaniment of meat, or even
salt. On the 18th of April 1 could neither
beg nor steal a meal. On the Sth l had
the good fortune to discover. while roaming
promiscuousiy and disconsolately through
the woods in order to get beyond the range
of shot and shell. two large ears of corn,
These l seized with ayidIty. ground in an
old coffee mill. half baked in a shoulder
ing fire by the roadside. and so had my last
meal in the Confederacy; but one lit for
the gods"
We had been hearing for two or three
DAYS vague rumors OF surrender, and any
man who could see beyond his nose felt n
certainty of the truth. When we were
halted after our hard days run We laid
dow and wept; and as we rested by the
roadside, dirty, tired, disconsolate and hun
cry. we saw Custer, with the flowing locks.
ride by, full of fuss and bluster. Not long
after General Lee, with scant attendance,
rode to the front of our lines to meet
General Grant. with whom he remained in
conference perhaps an hour. Waiting and
watching anxiously, we saw him return.
and, being encompassed by a crowd of dis
organized soldiers. he dismounted by the
roadside and announced in his usual quiet
and dignifed way that he had surrendered
the army. as further resistance was at
that time vain; that General Grant had
been liberal in his conditions. and advised
all to go quietly to their homes and turn
their attention TO raising crops. Then every
man in that vast crowd pressed eagerly for
ward and endeavored to shake his hand In a
sad farewell.
