advance and the ravages of consump-

growth of the disease, but apparanetly
powerless to suggest remedy. Now,
however they have been apparently
converted to the idea, as explained by
DIR. Brown, the local government board
Inspector, that steps should be taken to
have sanitarium erected for the treat

GEN. N. B. FORESTS
BRIGHT STRATAGEM.

Athens, Ala, Aug. 81. - The
Northern Missionary Society that
finances Trinity College, the negro
school at this place, is erecting q
new brick building on Fort Hill,
which is to take the place Of the
college building destroyed by fire
not long ago. The walls Of the
building are nearing completion.
Anent the fort, there is told true
story which illustrates well the
sagacity and humanity of one of
the South's most rugged charac-
tiers, that born character leader,
N. B. Forrest.
There is no doubt of the truth
of this story of ruse de guerre
which saved many lives by pre-.
venting the taking of the fort by
storm. Old citizens who were eye
witnesses of the stratagem have
attested its correctness, and the
Courier, of Athens, published,
some years ago, an account OF the
affair from the pen of Hon. John
w. Morton, now Tennessee's Sec
rotary of State, and during the
Civil War Forests chief of artil-
Iery, but Gen. Forrest does not
mention the ruse in his official re-
port to th Q Assistant Adjutant
General at Selma, Ala, Maj. p.
Ellis.
The garrison was composed of
Aplored' troops, differed by white
n. Gen. Forrest made an APP
HI to the Federal Colonel in COM
land of the fort, Col. Wallace
Campbell, to surrender, based on
the strength of his force and on
humanity. The garrison was COM
posed Of negroes, but Forests
cavalry Of 1850 could not have
taken the place by storm without
great loss of life. In his report,

ent, Gen. Forrest says:
"While my troops were steadily
advancing on the fort, and the ar
tillery was pouring into it con-
centrated fire, | ordered halt
and the artillery ceased firing.
Knowing it would cost heavily to
storm and capture the enemy's
works, and wishing to prevent the
effusion of blood that | knew would
follow a successful assault, de-
determined to see If anything could
be accomplished by negotiations.
Accordingly, | sent Maj. Strange,
of my staff, with flag of truce,
demanding the surrender of the
fort and garrison. After much
apparent hesitancy, Col. Campbell
refused to make the surrender. /
returned to my command determ-
ined to renew the assault; but still
desiring to spare my men and the
massacre of the garrison, / sent
another flag requesting an inter
view with Col. Campbell at any
place he might designate outside
th g fort. I he interview was
granted. | assured Col. Campbell
that for the sake of humanity /
should do everything in my power
to prevent collision and for that
| invited him to examine
my troops for himself and Judge
of my ability to take his works.
H Q accompanied m along M Vi
lines and, after witnessing the
- n d enthusiasm of my
troops, he surrendered the fort
with its entire garrison"
A hasty sketch of the attack and
will show how bloodshed
was avoided. and how shrewdly a
brave, bold, fearless soldier can
play a trick of military legerde-
main. This was on the brilliant
raid that Forrest made into Middle
Tennessee in the fall of 1864. He

Thereupon Maj. Strange galloped
up to Morton, and exclaimed:

ton, turning in his saddle, ordered
Mayson to fire. The first shot
struck the top of the house, maxi
ing the dirt and plank fly, and the
next penetrated the house, killing
four negroes. A shot from Wal.
toms gun quicklyfollowed killing
two and wounding three. AT this
moment the gallant Federal Cap
tain, who had apparently changed
his mind suddenly as to when he
would choose to die, came rushing
out and waved his hat frantically
10 lieu Of flag, and yelled Justify:
II surrender, | surrender Gen.
Forrest rode forward in person to
meet him. The Captain, in great
excitement, exclaimed: you have
killed or wounded nearly all my
men. Your shells bore through
my blockhouse like an augur, sir.n
The garrison of the blockhouse
numbered thirty five. Forests
prisoners that day amounted to
about 1900.
A few years ago Capt. John w.
Morton visited Athens, and walk
ing down to the site of the burned
blockhouse, observed a small cedar
tree growing in the center Of the
embankment about the old walls.
He transplanted this evergreen
into his own yard in Nashville,
where it is hoped it has grown to
be reminder Of his prowess on
the Gath of September, 1864, when,
on the famous raid, the first fruits
of which were the capture Of the
fort at Athens.
The colored youth acquiring
knowledge under the shadow of
the historic fort should recognize
the humane spirit which caused
Gen. Forrest to tax his Ingenuity
to avoid bloodshed there, for his
good will towards the colored peo-
pie was shown more than once to
be no less than that of the eau
casian philanthropist who desires
to put within their reach the means
of expanding the mind and heart
Of earning self-support, and inn
proving the morals Of the indi-
yidual.
