 '-4r Selma, April Z This, the second day of April. 1904, Is the thirty-ninth anniversary Of the .-Iail oi Selma and the oldest inhabitants nave re- counted many interesting stories or the capture of the city by Wilson's Haiaers in '65. The city was taken without great deal of resistance Tor mere were ls" regulars of the Confectionery here, and ai- most inc entire defense was offered by citixen-soldiery who made a short but gallant fight to save their homes from falling into the hands of the enemy. The Federal troops advanced from Summer feldway and, using the Summerfield and the Range Line roads, approached rapidly. The first heavy gun was fired upon Selma from the eminence on the Summerfield road just two miles from town, and the main attack was made from that point.
 The city had been almost entirely en- compassed with earthworks, but these were of little use because of the paucity of the defenders, and Wilson's cavalry men entered the place with little trouble All the people in Selma were of course, in ferment of excitement and the out rages committed by the invaders caused much bitterness. The officers of the Raid CTS, however, prevented many indignitles from being offered to the residents in the town and this city suffered less than some of the places taken by the Northern troops.
