Mrs. Pryor's pictures Of life in the
South IA the days when the Civil War
was drawing on are full OF color; dark
with suffering and privation are her rec
Ords Of the struggle in its progress. As
Il approached the end hunger tormented
civilian and soldier alike. Even the
commander In chief often lacked for
food. The author recalls the CHEEKY as
surance Of an Irish NJ. +. who was NJ
one time General Lees guest: You
should have seen Uncle Roberts dinner
to-day. madam, He had two biscuits
and he gave ne one" Another ;ime the
Irishman was chee-ier still: we had
glorious dinner to-day, Somebody sent
Uncle Robert box OF sardines." There
is an endearing glimpse Of Lee at the
table of a friend who had received gift
OF thing as rare in that place and time
as rubieS-,a turkey. General Lee con-
scented TO share IL with her. She helped
him at dinner 10 a moderate portion. for
there was only one turkey-like Charles
Lambs hare-and many friends Mrs.
Banister observed the general laying on
one side OF ms plate part of his snare Of
the turkey. and she regretted his loss OF
appetite. Madam he explained. Colonel
Taylor is not well, and / should be glad
tn be permitted 10 take this to him
Nobody in that region in those early
days Of '65 knew how next days food
could be obtained. and when II came it
was pitifully scanty. To Mrs. Pryor it
seems little short OF miracle that they
could continue TO exist on SO little food.
As for Lees soldiers. starvation had lett
the men with no resisting power with
which 10 combat even a slight wound.
They suffered. but the suffering Of the
Southern women was as great. There
is much tragt dy in the story, and no one
can read IL without admiration for the
courage and endurance which carried
them through such misery. An interest

tkeir clever contrivanee. Bits OF carpet
end morocco pocletbooks made into
boots for little children were better than
nothing. when money grew scarce the
wSfe OF the absent general cut up her
husbands dress coat and made for sale
well fitting gloves for women, with
gauntlets Of the silk lining. From these
and from gloves cut out OF the gray
flannel interlining she made hundreds OF
dollars in Confederate money, and so
kept the Pct, such as IL vas. a-boiling.

something worse the fabrication of
spurious quotations. He quotes in Illus

Roebuck boasted that he was not a party
man. Warren rose, and said that my
learned friends boast reminds me pain
fully OF the words OF Cicero. He who be-
longs TO no party is presumably too vile
for any" At the conclusion of the de-
