Turning to the prisoner, I asked:
What did you do when you re-
ceived this letter."
Il made application for a furlough,
and it was rejected; again l made ap-
plication. and it was rejected; athird
time l made application, and it was
rejected and that night, as I wandered
backward and forward in the camp
thinking of my home, with the mild
eyes OF Lucy looking up to me, and
the burning words OF Mary sinking
in ny brain. was no longer the Con-
federate soldier. but 1 was the father
Of Lucy and me husband of Mary.
and | would have passed those lines if
every gun in the battery had fired up
on me. went to my home. Mary
ran out to meet me; her angel arms
embraced me, and she whispered:
"Oh, Edward, l am so happy, I am
glad you got your furlough; she must
have ielt me shudder for she turned
pale as death. and catching her breath
at every word she said:
Have you come home without
furlough? Oh. Edward go back, go
back! Let me and my children go
down to the, grave, but oh, for Hea-
ven's sake save the honor Of our
name
And here I am. gentlemen-not
brought here by military power, but
in obedience to the command OF Mary,
to abide the sentence OF your court.
Every officer of that court martial
felt the force of the prisoners words.
Before them stood in beatihc vision,
an eloquent pleader for husband and
fathers wrongs but they had been
trained by their great leader, Robert
E. Lee, to tread. the path OF: duty,
though the lightning's fash scorch-
ed the ground beneath their feet and
each in his turn pronunced the YER
dict-"guilty."
Fortunately Tor humanity-fortu-
nately for the Confederacy-the pro-
ceedings OF the court were reviewed
BY the commanding general and upon
the record was written:
"Headquarters Army Northern Vir-
ginia-The finding OF the court IS ap-
proved. The prisoner is pardoned and
will report TO his command"
(Signed) "Robt. T. Lee, General"
During subsequent battle when
She. and she'll were falling like tor
rents my attention was directed to
the fact that one OF our batteries was
being silenced by the enemy. When
I reached the battery. every gun had
been disrnounted but ore and by it
stood Edward Cooper, blood stream
ing from his side. He called to say:
tell me. have I saved the honor OF
Mary and Lucy?" and he once more
sent a shell through the enemy's
ranks and Edward Cooper. the hero,
sank to the ground by his gun. dead.
While these men who thought they
were doing their duty as the men who
should pass upon tine deserter a SEN
tence OF death. the great heart OF Lee
felt for the condemned man and par
doned him and he proved good SOL
dier.
And thus thousands stood to duty
who never got to their loved ones. but
filled a soldiers grave-The I. 5.
blanket their winding sheet-tar from
their loved ones. And those who are
living are fast passing over to rest
under the shade OF the tree OF lite.
