He took us to his house, it being now
dark, introduced us to his wife and sis

was not safe to have the rebels know
that he harbored us. After supper we
bade our host good-by. My feet were

this time, as neither of my friends could
provide me with boots The country at
that time was full of bushwhackers. We
took the road, and whenever we heard
anything approaching, either real or
imaginary, we piled over the fence. and
lay there until the way was clear again.
We tramped nearly all night, but to-
wards morning l began to give out. My
feet became so sore that it was almost
impossible to walk, and l told the Lieu
tenant to go on ahead and reach camp,
but he declared he would not desert
me, but would walk ahead and then sit
down and wait for me to come along.
1t reminded me of the story in our old
readers about the Hare and the Tor

by some logs, and as it was quite cool
we lay close and went to sleep. Nhen
We awoke the sun was shining in our

The Fight at the BloclihOusc.

Editor National Tribune: / was n
member Of Co. G, 9th Tenn. Cav, and
was in camp at Bolivar Tenn, when a
detail from different commands was
made up, and some 800 of us were put
in box cars and run to jackson, Tenn.
When we got there the report was that
Forrest, with about 1000 men, was on
his way from Lexington, Tenn, to Hum
boldt, on the Mobile 6s Ohio Railroad,
some 80 miles north of jackson, where
we had commissary and ammunition
stores
1t was necessary to check him. so we
were ordered to Humboldt, and upon
reaching the blockhouse on Forkadear
River, Forrest and his men had reached
Humboldt and had succeeded in burn
ing the commissary and magazine and
tearing UP the railroad track to within
200 yards of the blockhouse; but the
men in the blockhouse had not surren-
dered, having held them off pretty well
all day.
Forrest planted two pieces of cannon
on the bluff some half-ilile cas-: of us,
and fired several shots at us ION the
train. but did no damage We crossed
the river and went after them, and ran
them out of town. We laid the track
again that night as fbtst we tould, and
ran our train into town and Went to the
stockade. Forrest, With his hfen. stayed
with us three days and nights, but did
not attack us. We got pretty hungry
during this time, and Nvere9 relieved by
some regiments of Kansas Jsiyhawkers.
Forrest retreated up the RAILROAD, tear
ing it up and playing havoc GENERALLY as
he went. The Kansas Jayhswkers did
not overtake him, and we alp went back
to Bolivar. If any Of the boys who
were in the blockhohse will write me 1

Editor National Tribune: So many Of

word. Our brigade of the Fourth Corps
built breastworks near Rough and
Ready, parallel with the railroad, Aug.
81, 1854. On the morning of Sept. l
we moved to the railroad, and advanced
toward Jonesboro, destroying the road
by burning the ties and bending the
rails. We continued advancing along
the road, destroying it until within
three-fourths of a mile from the Con-

Bayles as to the hanging OF Two Face
and two other Indians at Fort Lara
mie, sometime in July, 1865. l would
say, that if my memory serves me right
that when my regiment, the 9Th Mich.
Cav, got to Fort Laramie. we saw three
Indians hanging out on the hill south
west of the fort, l should judge about
one mile from the fort, and were told
that these three Indians had brought
a white woman and wanted to ex-
change her for hog meat, and when
Gen. Connor inquired of her how the
Indians had used her she told him.
He then ordered a court martial of the
Indians, and when they brought in a
verdict of guilty and recommended that
the Indians be hanged, the General
approved and ordered the Indians to

trace chains, and hung there for sew
