sonic incident which happened in the
Shenandoah valley in 1864 Near Mill
wood u regiment of cavalry halted one
night and went into camp One Of the
men. who was hungry. slipped away
and went off in the neighborhood to
get something to eat He rode up to a
cabin on farm in the dark and called
for the person inside to come cSt.
negro woman. known at that time
as an intelligent contraband, opened
the door and asked him what he want
ed. The soldier wished to be assured
of his safety before dismounting and
while eating his supper. so he inquired
of the woman If any one but herself
was there.
She replied, Yes: Mosby is here"
"Whatm said he in whisper. is
Mosby here?''
Yes she said; ''he is in the house. :.
The soldier put spurs to his horse
and dashed off to his company to carry
the news When he got there he in
formed the colonel that Mosby was in
a house not far away. The regiment
was soon mounted and went at fast
trot, thinking they had Aiosby in a
trap.
When they arrived at the negro wo-
mans house the colonel ordered his
men to surround it to prevent Mosby's
escape while he went in with a few to
take him dead or alive.
The woman again came to the door
of the cabin. The colonel inquired, rs
Mosby here?'
She innocently replied. Yes" so he
walked in
After the colonel got inside be looked
round But the woman seemed to be
all alone and utterly unconscious of
having so important person for a
guest
In loud voice the colonel demand
ed, Where is A1osby?"
Ere he, answered the terrified me-
gress. at the same time pointing to a
cradle on the floor.
The colonel looked into the cradle
and saw a little African pickaninny

the house wide experience as a
debater and law maker, which has
stood him well in hand In the contests
which have from time to time bern

is ready in debate and a bold adso-
cate of what he believes to be right,
and his ernest zeal for his cause and
eloquent presentation Of his facts
never fail to insure him hearing
when he rises to speak on the foot
His ability as a parliamentarian is
we'll recognized and has aided much
In the hrsiness of the house fer Il

Mr. Vandeventer secured the pass

were of great Importance. One was to
provide for the collection of the Eye
million dollars school fund, another to
provide for its Investment and
another OF vast importance to keep

homa He also has the distiction OF
passing a bill through both houses

Owing to his modesty, 1t is not gen
