A War Incident.


D. G. Hughes returned to his
home in Carroll county, Arkansas,
Wednesday. The visit of Mr..
Hughes to Oak Grove, after an alb
sence of twenty seven years, re-
calls the story of his miraculous
escape from death during the war
between the states. Mr.. Hughes
then beardless boy, clerking in
his fathers store at Montgomery
City, Mo-, was, together with
three other men of Southern sym
pathies, captured by a company Of
Federal soldiers. They were tax
en- out on the prairie near the
town and told to kneel on the
ground, as their time to die had
come. Mr. Hughes inquired why
they were to be put to death, and
the Federal officer jabbed him with
a sword and told him to shut his
mouth. The prisononers were
then given three minutes to make
their peace with God. The Fed
eral company was drawn upin
line four feet deep around the
men to be slaughtered. Hughes
knew it was death anyway, and he
and one Of the other prisoners
made a dash for liberty. Their un-
looked for move was so sudden,
that they broke thru the ranks, be-
fore the ITO Federals could recov-
er from their surprise. Many shots
were fred at Hughes and his COM
panion. One of them took effect
and Hughes right shoulder was
badly shattered. His companion
escaped without injury. The other
two men were shot to pieces and
bayonets ran thru their bodies. Mr..
Hughes hid in a small ravine for
several hours, and one time the
Federals, who were hunting him,
walked within ten feet of him. The
Federal captains name was Kir-
by. When Hughes recovered, he
came to Jackson county, and
Joined Quantrell, and it is likely
that many blue coat met death
at his hands. Mr.. Hughes is now
a well-to-do farmer of Carroll coun-
ty, Ark.-Oak Grove Banner.
D. Q. Hughes is brother of the
late Judge E. NJ. Hughes of this
city. Hughes companion in his
escape from the Federals was Car
son Nunnelly, an uncle to Mrs.
Marshall Washington. OF the
remaining two men who were shot
to death, one was Carson Nunnel-
Ily's father, Mrs. Washington's
grandfather. - Montgomery City
Standard.
To the above the MESSAGE might
add that brother of d. G. Hughes
resides in this city, Mr.. Arnold
Hughes. He is a most worthy
gentleman, prominent worker in
the M. w. A. order and editor of
Modern WoOdcraft, published in
this city.
