TO THE VETERANS OF THE
@, A. r.

THE following poem was written by the
wife of a civil war veteran and sent to
the National Tribune The author, al
though nearly II years of age, and it is
many years since the war, has not for
gotten the heart throbs of the long ago.1
Twas easy to march in the morning,
When heart-throbs and limbs were
strong,
When blast of life's bugle was calling.
Like strains of beautiful song,
When the drum taps called you to ac-
ton,
And comrades We're by your side.
So easy to march in column,
Each firmly stepping side by side
How bravely you entered the conflict.
Cheers greeted each moment of time,
And honor was crownfng your efforts,
When life seemed almost sublime,
With friends standing by to support
And lift their voices in praise.
Your heart never tired, but only in
spired
Your flag of success to raise
When the work dragged on in the even
And the friends that cheered were
And the praises of men were silent
That piped so loudly at morn,
And you missed the dear old companions
Who started in life with you,
You sadly stood by the tattered Flag
Alone with the living few
Twas hard to keep stepping in silence,
When your path had lonesome grown,
Life's bitter cup a soldier must drink,
Without a sigh a groan,
And this was the test of your courage,
A test that you dare not shirk,
In the bright days and the dark ones
You must faithfully do your work
Yes battle when plaudits may cheer
you,
March when your comrades are gone,
Faithful and valiant forward press on,
And smile in spite of the wrong.
In the bright days and the dark ones,
Faithful, valiant and bright,
Ready for battle or marching on,
Out in the darkness of night
Those only who march to the music
But fail when the battle is on,
Are not the loyal, the true and brave
Who stand by the muff1ed drum,
1t may be your march will be silent,
AS you step to the taps of the drum
When the battle of life is finished,
And your work as a soldier is oohe-

for musketry and on the second floor
large door was provided for the use
of swivels or light cannon.
These b1ockhouses were usually To-
Gated at strategic points, and were
well stocked with provisions and am
munition.
Of the great number formerly exist
ing in New England but three remain,
and they are in Maine. One is at Wis
casset, another at Fort Kent, and the
third and most famous one is standing
at Winslow, across the river from
Waterville.
The one at Wins1ow is the subject of
the photograph, taken by the Boston
Globe artist. Erected in 1854, it was
originally one of the three blockhouses,
all connected by a stockade. They
were placed at the junction of the Ken
nebec and Sebasticook rivers. The
strategic importance will be easily un-
derstood when you reflect that the
Kennebec is SO deep and rapid at this
point that the French and Indians
found it impossible to ascend the river
in their light batteaux or canoes, so
the route was by Sebastlcook, the
French settlement.
Many battles were fought around the
blockhouse shown, and its wooden
walls contain a great quantity of bull
lets, although many have been extract
ed. The tragedies of war have been
enacted here; treaties have been con-
cluded and troops quartered within
and around the walls.
The sachem of the Abenakis tribe Of
Indians was murdered just outside its
walls after a debauch. In fact, its his
tory is so connected with the stirring
period of the French wars that the
Maine Historical society has come to
it's rescue, and it is now protected
against further depredations and de-
cay.

HISTORIC BUILDING IN EAST.
Wooden Walls of Old sIoekhouse Full
of Bullets. ~

During the French and Indian wars
the favorite style of fortification was
the wooden blockhouse-
Their slight cost, the proximity Of
the material, and the rapidity of cree
ton, together with their Impervious-
ness to the arms of that period, COM
bined to make them ideal forts.
The usual type, as represented in
the photograph, was twostory build
ing about 20 feet square. the upper
story oyerhanging the lower one about
IL inches. The overhang enabled the
defenders to guard against insidious
attack. Boards were raised and scald-
ing water was often turned on the
heads or backs of the Indians. Some
times heavy stones were dropped with
crushing effect, and at any time fire.
arms might be discharged at short
range at the assailants.
The logs used in the construction
were hewn about eight inches square
and dovetailed at the ends. Loopholes
were provided at convenient intervals

asked OF Anita, who waited in the
hall.
They're gone; they told me not to

The dim cool dining-room was not

WITH GENERAL GRANT.
"Reminiscences of Officer Who Served
Under Him at Vicksburg.

Mai. Samuel G. Glover, member OF
the Loyal Legion, was in reminiscent
mood the other night and among other
stories related this one of Gen. Grant
to a select few gathered around the
open fire, says the Chicago Record
Herald The question, did you ever
meet Gen. Grant" brought this reply:
ST remember well the first time ever
talked with Grant. 1t was at Vicks-
burg, and 1 was a mere boy in age,
though 1 had seen many months OF
service, as I went straight from old
Miami university when the call came.
ct had orders to go to Grants head
quarters on business pertaining to the
commissary department, and instead
of asking for the adjutant general, as
would have been proper, and who
would have given me the requisite in
formation, / stepped up to the sentinel
and asked for Gen. Grant. He pointed
to a small tent, which I entered and
found myself face to face with the
head of the army and in his own pri-
vate quarters. He was seated upon q
wooden stool, both elbows resting on
a table and his face was buried in his
hands. A map was spread out before
him, which he was evidently studying
with Keen interest WH0u L DTOhS III.
CHANGING up. and acknowledging the
best salute 1 could offer he asked my
errand. The information was given in
the kindest possible manner, with no
hint that could and should have gone
elsewhere for instructions, no dispIeas-
ure at being disturbed and 1 left with
boyish convictions that our general
was not only great soldier but most
after that / saw him frequently
riding over the works at Vfcksburg;
one day he dismounted and stood on a
spot which was exposed to the direct
fire of the enemy, it was at time
when the sight of head above the
earthworks was enough to call forth
most vicious shower of shot and shell
down on us, but there Grant stood ap-
parently deep IN thought Finally
soldier called to him and he turned
without tremor in his voice, begged
pardon for needlessly exposing the
men, and walked to a more secluded
part of the breastworks-"

AN INTERESTING RECORD.

The story comes to us, says the Ma
tionaI Tribune, of a class in the Sum
day school of the Associated Reformed
Presbyterian church of Chillicothe. o.,

ing the civil war, composed of nine
boys and taught by one Thomas Beach

and George Perkins. At the outbreak
of the rebellion teacher and boys went
into the Union army, and this is their
record: Thomas Beach became a
captain in the seventy-thfrd Ohio, and
after gallant service returned home,
and died several years after the war
OF the Bonner boys David also enlisted
in the seventy-third. was wounded at
the second Bull Run and supposed to
have been buried ON the field. as he
was never heard Of again. John Bon
ner served out hts time In some regi-
ment unknown, settled In the south
after the war, and died there, and
Henry Bonner belonged to Company
A, one hundred and forty-ninth Ohio,
and is now living in Oklahoma. James

to have been exhibited at one of the
county fairs back home The man
that raised it was an enterprising fell
low, and he had found out in some
way that by feeding milk to squash
vine tremendous squashes could be
raised. So he raised this one, and 1t
was a whopper- He had to drive a
long way to town over rough roads,
and unfortunately in unloading the
squash, it dropped to the ground and
burst. What was the owners surprise
to find that the milk which had ac-
cunulated in the squash had been

". al need just such = table in my

me this one?"
However humorously Vance might
have been disposed to treat his fiasco
in the cafe, the others at the station
house seemed to regard it differently.
Jimmy Fitz summed up the situa-
ton with his usual acumen-
THAT fellow has been hanging
around Pedro's Place since midnight
ON Thursday-the very night this
thing happened. He had never been
seen there before. He spent most of
the day Friday sitting in that wing
dow watching the hotel. Arthemise
says he slipped into the hotel twice
on Friday and was standing in the
upper hall when she saw him and ran
him out What was he doing there?
We don't know. The first time gem
tleman asks him a polite question
about 1t, he fights like a tiger, drops
a big pistol to the floor, and skins out.
You just bet your sweet life we'll
know mighty soon. Can he get out of
this town? Well, I reckon not. We
want to PROFOUND few tender in
quiries to the gentleman concerning
of his recent conduct before we bids
him an affectionate adios, Senor.''
1t meant a great deal for Jimmy
Fitz to say this much all at one time,
and to slam his fist down on the la
BILE when he was done.
Joe said nothing; Vance and Chau
dron agreed with FitZ.
After the gentlemen had come out
upon the street the police sergeant
said: Say, Jimmy, is you talkin'
