PYRAMIDS OF PAIN

Boils show the blood is in a riotous, feverish
condition, or that it has grown too weak and slug
gish to throw off the bodily impurities, which
then concentrate at some spot, and carbuncle
or boil is the result. To one already enfeebled
by disease boils seem to come with more freouencv

large. Col. Dave Fleming, the redoubt-
able captain and manager Of the Hill
Biliei,' was In personal command of
his team, being stationed at second base,
and that explains in part Of the fearful
humping h's side received. Col. Flem-
ing played clean game, missing or
fumbling the entire eight chances which
went his way. He refused to accept
and one time wouldn't take
the ball when player walked up and
offered it In his hand. At the bat he
was terror, especially with men on
bases. He swung savagely each time,
and rent great holes in the air. He
tried to stir the beachers to mutiny
against the umpire once for calling him
out on strikes. but the bleachers told
him to ''chase It," and he gave it up.
Another game will be played soon.

Hood, Cleburne and CRANBERRY Quarrel
They halted for dinner at late houl
just south of Blanton's Chapel. when
there was some more misunderstood
ing between Hood, Cleburne and
CRANBERRY. Gregory overheard it al
but did not pay much attention to 1T !;
his present impression is that there
were some words between them, as
to Cleburne or Granbery being put in
the extreme advance, and some chafing
and dissatisfaction because some OF
the troops were so slow in coming up.
The Great Blunder Occurs.
About sun down Cieburne had got
his infantry up TO the pike about a
mile south OF Spring Hill, and there
WAS a sharp sk1rmish with the Federal
forces marching north on the pike,
which lasted till after dark. The
Duck River Riflemen were with their
command in the advance, and the for
ward movement OF the Twenty fourth
was stopped by staff officer. The
regiment remained in position near
McCutcheon s creek throughout the
night, eagerly expecting the order to
resume the advance ana cut the train
IN retreat on the pike-but the order
never came.
That Fatal Tuesday Night, Nov. 30,
1854.
Hood made army headquarters that
night at Capt. Thompson s, two miles
ana half south of Spring Hill. AL
most as soon as headquarters were es-
tablished, Hood come out of the house
and sat on a log some two hundred
yards from the house, near the fisn-
pond. Gregory was there in attend
ance, and saw courlerS frequently
come, and from what he overheard,
their reports were that the enemy
were giving way. Granbery was there
ON the log with Hood for quite while,
but Gregory's impression is that Gle

conference with Gen. Stewart, who
had arrived about dark.

FEAST that Tuesday evening for these

After marching north on the pike tC

Spring Hill, his guide took him
east up the private pike leading to Col.

That night the Confederate army re-
manned close to the Columbia pike, in
easy hailing distance of the Federal
forces that with trains fifteen miles
long were crowding the pike in the
hurried retreat to Franklin and Nash
vile. One of the Federal officers said
that in riding up and down the line
they had to remain close to the column
to keep from riding over the Confed-
crate pickets. A single column thrown
across the road would in all probability
have routed Schofield s entire command.

they had marched from Lynnville t,

: they had marched from Lynnville tC
Columbia by night less than a week
before. and had been constantly in
trinching since that time often in the
rain, and frequently with scanty food
and fuel. And now to be again on the
retreat by night, with the prospect of
a night attack by the Confederates in
position and flank with strong force,
to say nothing of Lee crowding them
in the rear, was extremely trying.
! Cox's Division led the retreat to
Franklin, as it had done from Lynn
vile to Columbia; arriving at Frank
! lin about sunrise on the morning of
the Both, his brokendow soldiers were
allowed one hour for rest and break
fast, and then Immediately began
work on the line of intrenchments on
the Columbia pike at the Carter house
and the old gin. AS the other COM
mands arrived, they too were put to
work on the Notifications, which were
already strong from long occupation by
the Federals as an outpost of Nashville.
By three O'Clock these works were in
good order, and Schotield s trains were
across Harpeth River and well on the
way to Nashville.
BY this time the Confederate forces
in pursuit came in sight and com
menced deploying. Schofeld did not
think that Hood would attack these
strong works in front, but would at
tempt anothe flank movement, which
would be comparatively easy, with the
river forbade almost anywhere. But
in this he was mistaken, for Hood at
once began to prepare for battle. He
evidnetly was chatting under the dis
appointment and the blunder of the |
night before at Spring Hill. and he |
probably had thought all day of the |
storm of criticism Schofield s escape |
would provoke throughout the country. |
And then, possibly he had heard NUT
terings from the men of his army that
day and he determined to retrieve
everything by defeating Schofield in
open battle.
