EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: What
Comrade f. w. Dayton says about Fort
that same Co. ID. He neglected to tell
about Tom Vanderbilt and me. however.
Tom and l were sent back to find fallen
comrade and help him to Surgeons care;
When we returned to the fort we found
it vacated, and set off to find our regiment.
We took the track travelled by the rebels
when they skedaddled; but in the afternoon
found that we were in the rear of Lee
army, and that our friends were all on the
other side of the enemy's lines. We forth
with fell back in mastery way. with
out waiting for orders, or maps, and with
out regard to strategic position. 1t would
be easier for us to go around Lees army
than through it, you see-the shortest
road to the East is sometimes by way OF
the South Rain began to come at dark
and We crawled into the brush and lay
down. We could see big fires in Peters
burg, and hear explosions there of all
sorts, so far Us pitch. tone and defamation
was concerned. Two men who said they
were artillery buglers Joined us and said
that we were behind Lee. and would bet
ter get out of that. We told them we
weren't taking orders from heavy artillery
men any more, and that they better lie
down and keep hush. They said we were
lost, and would be picked up by Lee. Tom
told them to lie down. keep quiet. and be-
fore morning We would have about us
enough C0fpOfalS ana Sergeants 10 cap
ture Lees headquarters and it's guards.
In the morning, when the strangers took
off their overcoats we saw that one was
an artillery Corporal. the other an artil
lery Sergeant. About 2 O'Clock in the
night we could hear the rebels going past
and you may be sure that We didn't stand
up to count them We just got as tight
to the earth as we could flatten.- At day
light we got a sight of blue clothes and the
red clover leaf and then we were glad.
We attached ourselves to Pennsylvania

Participated in brush at Sailors Greek
and in the afternoon We found our own
regiment and were happy again.

refers to Charles +. Waldron, one of your
constituents, who died at his home in
Welaka, Fla, March 20. Frank VALID
ron served in Co. F, 10Th Ohio, and in the
Veteran Reserve Corps, from Oct 10,
1861, to Oct. ID, 1864; and as a Second
Lieutenant in Co. X, 9th u. S. Veteran
Vols, in Hancock's Corps, from March
to May IL, 1865. He participated in the
battles of Kernstown, Port Republic, Ce-
dar Mountain and Charlottesville.
AT the latter place he was a Sergeant,
and while intently watching and firing at
the enemy in his immediate front, he, be-
cause of deafness, did not hear the order
to fall back, and stood fast until he found
himself almost in the hands of the enemy.

Frank dropped his gun and became a
prisoner, but his captOr was so friendly
that later on, when the prisoner started
under guard for Richmond. they shook
hands and parted regretfully. In later
years Comrade WaldrOn made search
through the Richmond press for his old
foe, and after correspondence, and ex-
change of photographs, located him in
Richmond, and visited him there. The re-
suit was that the men became the warm

death more sincerely than Sergt Hall, of

Of the war Comrade Waldron moved to
Michigan, but later on settled in Florida,

vineyard. He was unasSuming i'm his bear

A Great Invention.

John A. Stransky, of Pukwanna, S. d.,
has received a patent for new smokeless
gunpowder that will revolutioniZe the
powder business and make the inventor
rich. He says it can be made for seven
cents per pound, and one pound will go as
far as two pounds of black powder, and
one and one-half of the best smokeless
powder. There is but slight report made
and the recoil or kick is not noticeable.
The powder is smokeless, and can be made
in any kitchen.
Mr. Stransky wants few agents to in
troduce this powder. He has agents who
are making as high as $3.50 per month.
