TALKS OF THE CIVIL WAR
"reminiscences OF The Times That Tried
Mems Souls

Truly lone touch of nature makes
the whole world kim. 1t was a
pathetic scene this morning enacted
in the Capital office when an old
Union soldier came IN and gave 81
for the old Confederate who is i'll
at West Annapolis.
The old Union soldier called him
self Republican and all that, but
he said IL cannot let an old Con-
federate soldier go hungry or want
anything while | have a dollar in
my pocket, for it was Confederate
soldier who gave me food when
lay wounded on the battle field at
Bull Run.

and left. perhaps to die. | had lain
there from Wednesday until Satur-
day, when some Confederate soldiers

give me food. for | was hungry The
Confederates had no more than they
needed, but this one took from his
sack piece of fat bacon and hard
bread. Nothing ever tasted sweeter
to me than that food, and | believe it
saved my life.
AT that time | was engaged to a
lady who was my first wife, but is
now dead She had two brothers if
the Confederate Army. After the in
cident on the battlefield we all were
ordered to Washington. There / met
some Confederates and we began re-
lating war "reminiscences. One SOL

field and having given him the bacon
and bread in his knapsack. | said it

With tears in his eyes the old
