She found the note and read it
dozen times without pause. her eyes
leaping along the lines back and forth

Jean stepped closer to her while she
sobbed again like little child.
She pulled him to her and held him
tightly against her breast while she
once more read the note through blind

to her they bore the message of desola-

them until they echoed from vague dis

without apparent sympathy:

has been dead for ten years. Mrs. Ken
dali is member of the Methodist church

well known, loved and respected as any

three years it has been a well known fact
that she has been fast losing her health

her. She had it treated for one year by
a specialist all to no avail and the cancer
commenced to grow very fast and nearly

her nose. In this condition on Nov. |,

PEACH TREE CREEK.

On July 18th, Gen. Johnston was re-
lieved Of the command Of the rebel army
and Gen. Hood assigned in his place; and
at once there was a change Of tactics from
defensive to aggressive. In the forenoon
Of July 20 the Corps crossed Peach Tree
Creek and took up position with skir-
mishers thrown out. The march Of the
morning had been very severe, over poorly
constructed roads, and through dense
thickets, and the men were taking heed.
ed rest During the afternoon, about
n. H., the enemy sailed from his works in
force and fell in line of battle upon New
tons Division of the Fourteenth Corps.
The force of the attack came mainly upon
the Twentieth Corps, who. although un-
covered, and compelled to fight on compar-
atively open ground, after a severe battle
drove the enemy back to his intrench-
ments.
The advance of the enemy was discov-
cred by Private Henry Cist, Co. L, 33d

together they rallied their commands

BY the promptness of these two officers,
especially CGl. Coburn, a serious disaster
was no doubt averted. After the battle

N. Y. applied for pension under the
Act Of June p, 1880, or rather for an in
crease of pension, on account of heart dis
ease. The Examining Surgeons told him
if he had any business to transact he had
better do it at once. The Secretary Of
the Board told me that they recommended
Durham for the highest pension the law
would allow. Durham came home, sick
ened and died of heart failure. A few
