A VETERANS STORY.
Recalls Civil War Disaster When 480
Perished in Burning Troop Ship.

"Only two of us are now living who
made our escape from the fiery flames
of the General Lyon, when 480 souls
were hushed by the hand of death on
March 81, 1866, and both reside in ILL.,
nois," said Michael s. Brockett, old
soldier and farmer of Enfield, ILL.,, as
he retold the narrowing incidents of
the disaster that came as a capsheaf
'of cruelty to the last days of the civil
war and was surpassed in horror only
by the burning of the Sultana on the
Mississippi in which 700 sick and
wounded soldiers perished..
The memory Of that fatal Friday
morning will never leave me-" said
Brockett. as he began the story, "and
yet 1t seems fresh and as vivid as
though 1t occurred but yesterday. It
seems that I can see the blaze as it
carries destruction in its path; hear
the agonizing shrieks of the doomed
Of flames driving death in hideous
form to hundreds on board the ILL.,

1T was about ten o'clock Friday
morning, March 81, that fire broke out
A barrel of kerosene oil In the porter's
room was broken by the rough sea,
and the contents soaked down ON the
two lower decks, saturating them. The
sea was rough and when the stream of
oil struck the furnace the flames
