DAVIS At CLOSE RANGE.
Interesting Glimpse of the
President of the Confeder-
acy Among Friends.

An interesting glimpse of Jefferson
Davis and his personal escort in re-
treat at the end of the war, is pub
lished in the April Appleton's, from
the wartime diary of Georgian girl
whose journal has proved so inter-
estlng. Here is an extract:
about noon the town was thrown
into the widest excitement by the
arrival OF President Davis. He is
travelling with large escort of cav
airy, which seems TO me very i'm
prudent thing for man in his posi-
tion to do. He rode into town ahead
OF his escort, and as he was passing
by the bank where the Elzeys board.
the general and several other gentle
mon were sitting on the front porch.
and the instant they recognized him,
they took off their hats and received
him with every mark of respect due
the President of brave people. When
he refined in his horse all the staff who
were present advanced to hold the
reins and assist him to dismount,
while DR.. and Mrs Robertson hasten
cd to offer the hospitality of their
home. About forty of his Immediate
personal friends and attendants were
with him. and they were all half
starved, having tasted nothing for
twenty-four hours. Captain Erwin
came running home in great haste to
ask mother to send them something to
eat. as it was reported the Yankees
were approaching the town from two
opposite directions closing in unon
the President. and it was necessary
to hurry him off at once. There was
not so much as crust of bread ir.
our house. everything available hav-
ing been given to soldiers. There was
some bread In the kitchen that had
just been baked for party of SOL
ders. but they were willing to wait.
and begged some milk from Aun.
Sallie, and by adding to these our
own dinner as soon as Emily conll
finish cooking it. we contrived to get
together very respectable lunch We
had just sent it off when the Presi.
dents escort came in, followed by
couriers who brought the comforting
assurance that 1t was n false alarm
about the enemy being so near. By
this time the Presidents arrival has
become generally known, and people
began flocking to see him, but he went
to bed almost as soon as he got into
the house. and Mrs. Elzey would not
let him be walked. One of his friends
Colonel Thorburne, came to our
house. and went right to bed, and
slept fourteen hours on stretch. The

Many people never suspect their

troubles or they may lead to diabetes
or Brights disease. The best remedy
to use Is Doan's Kidney Pills. 1t
