Mrs. w. III. c. Whiting.

The wife of Major General w. II. c..
Whiting was Miss Kate Davis Walker,
the second daughter of Maj John
Walker and Eliza Morehead. She was
born in Wilmington on the 14th of
October 1886, and was descended
from distinguished ancestry, being a
great niece of General John (Jack)
Walker of the First Regiment of
North Carolina Continental Troops, a
granddaughter of General Thomas
Davis, and great grand niece of Col.
Thomas owen, of Revolutionary fame.
She was pupil of Madame Clements
school in Wilmington and completed
her education at the Streeter School
in Baltimore. Her fathers home was
noted for its profuse hospitality, and
the young soldiers of the u. S. En-
gineering Corps stationed at Fort
Johnston, were frequent guests. 1t
was in that way that she became ac-
quainted with her future husband.
She was married at the early age OF
twenty years, and Immediately be-
gan her married life at whatever ar
my post Captain Whiting was called
to. and bore the inconvenience and
privations of such life with cheerful
ness and patience, always happy
wherever he was One of her brides
maids has described her, as she was
at the time of her marriage, as being
a woman of rare beauty of person
and character, of queenly dignity and
bearing, her sweet manner winning
her husbands friends and making
them her own. Upon the opening OF
the War Between the States, Captain
Whiting left the service of the u. S.
Army and cast his fortune with the
people of the South. Mrs. Whiting
was generally near him, being one of
those heroic souls that had no fears
of the danger of army life, and ready
to share in the privations endured by
the Southern troops. She was always
cheerful, and useful as well, to those
around, who were in suffering and
distress. Her hopeful and cheerful
disposition did not desert her even in
the terrible calamity that befell her
when her husband was MORALLY
wounded at the fall of Fort Fisher He
died a prisoner of war at Governors
Island, New York, on the 10th of
March, 1865. Mrs. Whiting was now
alone, not having been blest with chill
dren. She made her home among her
early friends and family in Whining
ton and otter a while was enabled tC
take up the broken thread of her life,
and in acts of generosity and unself-
iShneSS to find some measure of hap
pineSS, although she could never be
induced to mingle again in society.
However, she was accessible always to
her friends who highly priced her
companionship. Her sudden death on
the 21st of November, 1901, was a
great shock and distress to her friends
and the community in which she lived
She was one of the original members
of the Cape Fear Chapter of the
Daughters of the Confederacy, which
body passed a beautiful memorial
upon her.

Mrs. Stephen ID. Ramseur.

Mrs. Ramseur was Miss Ellen f..
Richmond, born at Woodside, the old
Richmond homestead, near Milton, n
c., on the 2Sth of December. 1916. She
LAS married to General Ramseur on
the 22nd of October, 1868. Their love
1Cr each other begun when the two
were quite young, and the biographer
of the General General w. r. Cox
tells us that the betrothel was a long
Gre, due to the eXigencies of the pub
lie service which forbade an earlier
contamination of his hopes, and that
in the marriage he was made supreme
ly happy. Within a few DAYS before
the close of the first year of their mar
riage Heaven sent to the young wife 4
little daughter to comfort her in the
overwhelming sorrow soon to overtake
her in the death of her husband. He
vas mortally wounded on October 10,
1854, at Belle Grove and died a pris-
oner of war the next day at the head
quarters of General Sheridan. Every
attention was paid him in his last
hours His body was embalmed and
sent through the lines to his friends.
The impression made by the life, char
acter and death of her husband was
lasting. All through life her remem-
brance of him was the ruling passion
and interest. She lived in retirement
devoting herself to the care of an in
valid mother, and rearing her child.
She was woman of the deepest piety.
beautiful in person and in character.
Her death occurred at the home of her
sister. Mrs. William j. Montgomery. in

The first that l remember was that
the young men began to gather to-
gether to drill. In nv fathers house
five came to stay for some weeks, and
drilled daily. They had bought "Har-
dies Tactics" and as five were too
few to perform the evolutions we girls
were called on to swell the numbers.
We drilled with broOms in the wide
hall of the country house, it was the
first business after breakfast. In the
afternoons we practiced pistol shoot
ing at a mark. We thought 1t great
fun, and not for a moment did any
one in that gay set look to traglcal
issue in the terrible war cloud then
lowering over the land. We girls
taught our Poll PARROT to say "Hur-
rah for Jeff" Down with the Yam
kees!" and to sing "DiXie." She car
ried both words and tune nicely. My
father thought Down with the Yam
KEGS too mild to convey his senti-
ments, and taught Polly to substitute
a word less euphonious, but more ex-
pressive, and Polly accepted the
change with enthusiasm we sha.

What is this solemn sound We hear,
1t breaks upon a nations ear,
Like Oceans sob upon the shore,
The wall of storms whose wrath is DER
From proud Virginia s mountains
grand
1t swells through all our Southern
land.
A country mourning DER it's slain
Who gave their lives, and not in vain
Since in its heart their memory
blooms
Fresh as the flowers upon their tombs
Their toll Is Ger, their labors cease,
In war they died, but died for peace.
They bravely fought and nobly fell,
And fame their glorious deeds shall
tell,
When she DEGREES a crown of bay,
No power on earth her hand can
And on these grave a wreath is laid
No storms can change, no time can
fade.
When she has placed this deathless
crown,
Let woman cast her roses down
And love and fame forever stand
guard OF honor hand in hand
Around these graves where hero'S lie
Who fought for right, nor feared TO
die.
Mary Bayard Clarke.
