John aoxIe.s Battle Bun

John a. Boyle. OF Newton. took part
in the civil war. and liked TO tell
about his experiences. At a meeting
one evening he told about the expe-
rience he had at the battle OF Bull
Run, as follows: Il saw the men
drop their guns and run. SO dropped
mine and ran, too. but I was chased
by one OF the enemy. who had his
gun In his hand. ! ran the fellow a
good race for two miles. and then /
stumbled and fell. and was expecting
him to come W and shoot me- He
didn't come, so looked around TO see
where he WIS. and TO my surprise
saw him sprawled out on the ground
about two yards from me- / got up
and looked at him. and saw that he
had died from apoplexy."
Boyie's hearers asked what he did
next. and he replied: Il wept for the
man that ! had run to death."--Bos-
ton Herald.

How the kiekers Were Glad Enough

Possibly a description OF some OF
the experiences Of my regiment may
interest some OF your readers. espe-
cially the boys OF the Ninth corps. and
particularly those OF the One Hundred
and Eighty-Sixth New York. writes a
correspondent OF the National Trib-

fellows, liable TO do most anything.

10 the front We joined tho corps at
PEBBLES farm about the 23d or gath Of
October, 1864. pitching our camp in Pom

why 1t was called this. for there was
not a poplar tree within mile
About three days after our arrival we
were sent 10 take part in that little

see that the boys who had been the
biggest kickers while working in the
trenches at City Point made the most
strenuous efforts to fortify their posi-
ton against the enemy. taking the
pick and shovel without a word and
working with the greatest speed until
the works were completed. But the
incident l wish TO relate took Mace
