Slept Through Fight.

About the LATEST man on record
comes to light in rcminisccncc Of the
civil war. One night, during the sum-
mcr of 1862, Il detachment Of General
Kirby Smiths troops clashcd with a
portion of the Federal forces near
Richmond. Ky.
In the very centre of this dark bat
tlefield, so the story goes, stood the
house of Peter Van der HauScn, an
old Dutchman, who was noted among
his neighbors for being the LATEST
man in that section.
So, around this house, struggling
back and forth through the Hollan-
der's garden of weeds and wild flow
ers, the two hostile forces fierccly
struggled while the darkness was riv-
cn by the flash of m,,skcts and the
roar of artillery.
The next morning, MS soon rs the
ncighboring farmers dared poke their
noses out of doors, they hurried over
to old Peters to see if, by happy
fate, he were yet alive. Entering the
bullet riddled house and flying mp the
stairs. they burst into Peters bed
room, horror depicted on the faces.
What was their amazement, however,
to behold the Hollmdcr snoring
peacefully away as if sleep were the
one and only JOY Of his life.
BY persistent shaking they woke
him partially. "Get up, Peter!" cried
one neighbor. care you wounded, Pet
ergo
"No,' yawned the Hollandcr Then
he sat up and gazed bewilderedly at
the familiar faces about him. "Vas
ISIS what is the matter9'
"Matter!' cried they; didn't You
hear the awful noise outside last
night -
"Noise? Yes. | did hear the thun-
dering noise.'
"And didn't You see the flashes
of fire7'
eyes, but I turned over and went
to sleep again.
"Went to sleep again! Man, don't
you know what that meant? Don't
You know this house is shat tered -
For Il moment the slccp-dazcd Peter
seemed to be undecided whether to
get out of bed. Then, slowly rolling
over into his trousers, he said, $50

which pirates to an nnhumorous ex-
tent about it's sense of humor, but the
real thing, the inner vision of truth
which is the beginning of wisdom and
it's end.
He liked and enjoyed all the real
things of life and despised the UNI
real. For instance, he had real
friends. Only few people, even in
private life, have real friends in their
old age. But among the great history
shows still smaller proportion so
blessed
That was one keynote Of his char
acter, but along with his simple love
of truth there existed cognate qual-
ity which, however, does not always
accompany it; and that WAS an active
sense of responsibility to some power
higher than ourselves. In one of these
rare moments in his unusually light
conversation when he broke through
his habit,ml reserve and showed
what he thought about deeply, he
once said to one of his friends: 81
don't see how II democratic people,
struggling and fighting for its needs
and desires, can continue to exist as
a free people without the idea Of
something invisible above them to
which they believe themselves ac-
countablc. -
Like all great truths, this has been
said before. The point here is that
he believed it, and that in these two
Fundamental qualities. the vision of
truth, and the sense Of one s unshirk-
able accountability, ana in courage,
which was their offspring, are to be
found the determining motives of his
life.-Jesse Lynch Williams. in Col
