The opposing armies applied many;
different names to each other during
the war. At the outset "Reb" and
"Secesh" were favorite terms as APP
plying to the Confederates. Along In
1862 "Grayback" and "Butternut''
we're often used, both derived from the
uniforms the Co~nfederates wore. Many
of their uniforms were of a butternut
color, dyed reddish brown with butter
nut bark. But some time In 1864, as
the story goes, two pickets, one from
each army, were haunting each other.

be a rebel as to be a Johnny Bull. The
