He left there on the last train going eo Macon. where he was put in charge or a redout on the bank of the river In few days Macon was surrendered 10 the Federals and a cordon was thrown around the city about dark. rms boy and three others made their escape, Gaining the swamps they worked their way up the river for several miles during the night Next morning he got across the river. sur rounded Macon and struck the Cen tral Railroad about twenty miles be- low and followed the track of Sher- man toward Savannah. The Federal General had shown in this march to the sea that War is He'll" a fact in- pressed upon all who saw the awful devastation along this route.
 The Ogechee river was to be cross- ca. The railroad tresrIe was gone but the iron rails on ono side reached nearly to the other bank. The lad 'cooned' 1t as far as the rails extend- ed. then jumped in and swan tho rest of the distance. The Cconee was, the next river, which was much swollen from recent rains. It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon in April, and the weary traVeleT sat beneath the branch es of a fine old oak. wondering how he was to get across. He could see tt long distance down the road and his joy was great when he discovered an object approaching, which proved to be a man. He hailed him when near enough and asked assistance. The man went down into clump of willows and brought out a batteau, and padding across to the young sol- dier. took him safely over the stream.
 Reaching Augusta he was paroled. The war was over.
 There were incidents in every com pany of great bravery shown by the youngest boys in the command. They knew no fear. or were ever ready to do their full duty. It was always their guns which formed the first part of the stack after long and tiresome march. All were not heroes, but honor is due every private soldier who fought faithfully for home and country.

 Chapter, U. ID. C.

Madam President and Ladies-Hav- ing been appointed on committee to write the history of the Greenville Camp of Confederate Veterans, as first organized. together with the biog- raphy of the man, or hero, for whom the camp was named, I have made what effort I could to get material for the work, but have not been able to learn more than that the camp was organized Soon afterwards a delegate, T. M. Bragg was sent to represent the camp at Houston, Texas. in 1894.
 The camp may be said to have been born and died In the same year. The members, for one reason or another, mainly for lack of funds, failed to meet and keep up the organization so that it disintegrated entirely. A short time ago new camp was formed. under different name, the history of which will be given by the other mem Der of the committee. Mrs. R. A. Lee The original camp was named in honor of Colonel Sam Adams Through the kindness and courtesy of a friend incidents of his life which submit with this.
 Colonel Sam Adams was born in South Carolina. March 5, 1929; killed in battle July 21st, 1864.
 When one seeks to lift a sable cur tain which has been dropped for over forty years, to disclose a real living personality, it is found to be impossi ble to bring all the life tints back again. but when character stands forth in somewhat rugged outline rugged from strength, and rugged from iniexibility of purpose, the task is somewhat less difficult. Colonel Adams of the 33rd Alabama Regiment was such personality. His father was d planter and had amassed a small com petence. Young Samuel was the mot ambitious of his sons and after hay ing attended the district school he was sent to Columbia College, South Caro- lima, where he graduated. His pur- pose was to become a lawyer; and deciding to undertake his own sup port. he secured the position as teach CT of the boys school in GreenVille, Alabama where he taught for two years before beginning the study Of law. He was admitted to the practice before the Greenville Bar. Later he formed d partnership with Hilary A. Herbert. Coming as a stranger to Alabama, MT. Adams had so gained the confidence and good wiz of the people that although politically he was Democrat, and the county Whig, he was elected to the State Legislature as q member of the House of Repre- sentatives; and served two terms, making a fine record of his services there. At this time, the long contin- ued agitation between the North and the South concerning the question of slavery and State Rights, became acute.
 Secession followed and war resulted.
 MT. Adams responded to his coun- try's call. raised d regiment of men. was elected Colonel and reported for

duty to the Army of Tennessee; was assigned to Cleburne's Brigade. Cheat hams Division.
 In war as well as peace the quali- ties of the strong man that he was. asserted themselves. While maintain ing strict discipline he gained the re- spect and love of his men.
 In the battle of Perryville, he was wounded in the foot--the Achilles cord, and unfit for duty, he returned home to Greenville, Alabama, where he re- mained for a few, weeks.
 Then the portion of the Federal Army became menacing and while still walking with crutches he voluntarily cut short his leave, to return to his command
 A few hours before his departure, he was married to Miss Dora Herbert that being the consummation of a love, which had watched over her from her childhood.
 He left his bride for the dangers of the front at the conclusion of the mar riage feast.
 After the immediate danger of bat tie was over, and the armies had set tied down into winter quarters, his wound not having healed, he returned to his home and remained for a short time. These two occasions being his only absences from his post during his entire service.
 Tn July, 1863, Johnston's army in its masterly retreat before Sherman's ad- vance (with twice it's strength) had gained the victories of Resaca and Kennesaw Mountain and reached Att lanta. The 33rd Regiment. with others, was engaged in throwing up breastworks to protect the city.
 Colonel Adams was walking up and down the line of fortification, directing and encouraging his men to work un- der fire.
 His exposed condition made his sol- diers anxious about him and some who were devotedly attached to him urged him to seek the shelter of the breast works He thought 1t his duty to re- main, and refused to leave.
 ball entered his heart and the end had come.
 This bare outline but faintly reveals the warm. living. loving and strong personality of the man, which, all who came in contact with him left. Na- ture had cast him in one of her un- usual moulds. Great strength and great tenderness combined-plain of speech, sincere, yet kindly, his manner without affectation. yet love compell- ing-a Christian gentleman. his death indeed was a great sacrifice to his country's cause.

Nature was in her most attractive regalia on that bright morning in May. The birds were singing their sweetest songs. the sun had risen in his usual grandeur. and the fresh green leaves Of spring were glistening with a myriad of crystal drops, still clinging from the downpour of the previous night. The old flat cars loaded with cable chains. with the caboose attached was not creeping along, but making good time, There were happy faces, and beating hearts on board. For ca ble chains Was not the only freight, there Was human freight as we'll The orders had ome 70 evacuate Pen sacola, and this human freight was Captain Walt Zeigler's Company of Colonel Jones's brigade.

time to think of the.r own tatters. That mattered not.
 Those clothes of grey looked grand one year ago-their shoes new and strong. their blankets warm. But now. Why, it was a joke. John nies pants from knee down, were sewed in car-Iength stitches of big better. And their hats. they preferred not to discuss spring millinery. And footwear was a subject tabooed. But their faces were bright-God bless them! They had been fighting for their fresides, and they had fought their bravest.
 Every landmark was a glad wei come to them now. For they knew they had passed the county line, and were now In old Butler.
 The very brooks seemed to ripple them merry welcome home. and they would take long draughts of the fresh morning air, after the tedious night spent at the junction.
 Johnnie" called one soldier from the flat car, to his friend on the box car. did you know we were only twelve miles from home?" With a merry sparkle in the bright blue eyes. that even the horrors of war could not dim.
 The words had scarcely passed his lips. when the words resounded with a fearful crash. And the very earth trembled from the weight and thud of the engine and all the flat cars, weighted with their cable chains and soldiers. as all came crashing together through the bridge Heaven one mo- ment--oblivion, and worse, the next
 Johnnie saw his honored friend and life companion go down under that awful melee of engine, tender, box ears and cable chains
 He turned his head with a shudder, War had not given him so fearful spectacle as this. And then he turn ed, with few others who were un- injured and began the work of rescue. He had steadily kept his eye upon the spot in the water where he had seen his friend go down-and was working his way to the place.
 He could see a little movement now, and again in the water-but chains! chains everywhere! And there were so many dead to crawl over before he could get to that awful spot. At last 1t was reached, and the work begun of extricating that manly vigorous form from under the cruel chains When he was gently placed beside many other mangled heroes, a hand car was hur- riedly put into service. and he was lifted onto this. together with the dead.
 Thus was the entrance to home made! Life was left in this manly form, but unconsciousness was upon him for many days. And when the faithful doctor, after examination pro- nounced the words, spinal affection" the beloved hearts quailed. For they realized that many, many months of suffering and helplessness awaited this faithful hero.
