Or the winding rivers be red;
They Danish our anger forever,
When they laurel the graves of our
dead"
About forty-seven years after this !
cruel battle was fought, Sunday, June
%, 1911, I was on the same battlefield
pointing out to my companions where
Gen. Hampton was on his fine war
horse, where Gen. Butler rode up and
down the lines, where Gen. Young
rode, where Major Barker was severe
ly wounded, where Col. Zimmerman !
Davis behaved so gallantly, where
Preston Hampton was killed and
young Wade Hampton vas wounded, !
where gallant Hugh Farley IS shot
in the cheek, where DR.. Taylor was
busy dressing the wounds of the gal
liant boys in the ranks, where Capt.
Goodwin, of the 9Th South Carolina
cavalry, with about forty men, charg- !
ed Yankee battery, where Col. JEFF
fords, of the 5th South Carolina caval- /
ry, was killed, where the gallant Major
Hart, of Harris battery, lost his leg,
and where different incidents happen
ed.
Among them was where eGn. Duno-
wants headquarters we're in the
month of September, 1864. The oak
trees are still standing where Glenn
Davis, Postelle Wood, Ben Raysor,
Press Burch and slept on the ground
with nothing to cover with save the
canopy of heaven and our saddle
blankets. And how the water
would run under US when the rain fell,
but we were young then and laughed
at hardships.
Our cavalry camped that month be-
tween the White Oak road and the
Borgess. Mill pond. There is no mill
now by the dam site.
Under these trees, where we slept,
there is a shanty inhabited by good
old woman, IA years old, who lived
only few miles away when battle was
fought. She gave me some mimic balls
that she picked up very near the oak
trees. There is no trace of the large
oaks where Major Barker was wound
ed.
When I looked over the field and
thought of the men that we're killed
that day, and how all the horses we
rode On both sides during the war had
turned to dust, as we'll as nearly all
the men who took part in that cruel
war, I was almost tempted to shed
tears. But there is always humorous
side even on the battlefield. When
thought that all was dust T was re-
minded of the young lady, who married
a. Mr.. Dust. After the honeymoon had
sunk beneath the matrimnial horizon
it was then, oh then, that they quar-
relied, and she went home to her faith
er, and he said to her, ''My daughter,
thou art Dust and unto Dust thou shalt
return" and she busted.
My good friend, Major Mat Hough,
visited this same battlefield in June,
1910, where he, with eighty dismount-
ed men, had fought brigade of Yam
KEGS in, this memorable battle, killing
many of them, for Hough and his men
got behind an old breastwork. They
covered themselves with glory. Lanes
North Carolina. brigade and Barks-
dale's Mississippi brigade came to his
rescue and saved him. Last June,
when he stood all alone On the same
old breastwork, he thought Of the past
and Wept When he told me about it
l thought of the boy on the burning
deck eating peanuts by the peck,
whence all but he had fed.

JUST An ORPHAN

We are pretty much of an
orphan today. Our home is turned
topsy turvey by its boss and Mrs.
Harry Bruce who entertained sixty
or more of their lady friends this
afternoon. They say the rooms
are beautifully decorated. but all
we saw this morning was lot of.
different colored paper ribbons
tackled all around the walls near
the ceilings and conferred at the
electric chandeliers in the center.
When We left home this morning,
we were told not to return for
dinner or supper as there would be
nothing doing along those lines
today. The ladies will have a big
time today and so will we.
We called at the hose this fore
no on and could hardly get through
for the chairs and tables that
crowded the rooms. No wonder
that Mrs. F. T. Doll and Miss
Jessie Harris volunteered to assist
the hostesses in taking care of their
guests. They'll need assistance in
lodging the chairs. tables and
other furniture that clutter up the
house. But then they'll have q

1 CHARMING ISLAND

Last week Senator Raynor of
Maryland made:a interesting speech
on our relations with Mexico and
Japan and the Monroe doctrine a
distinguished form the Roosevelt
doctrine. x
In the course Of his speech, he
gave the following description of
am. one ofour island possessions:
1T is also stated that the situa-
ton at Guam is threatening and
gives evidence of IN intention on
the part Of Japan to prepare for
hostilites. Guam is one of our
princely volcanic possessions in the
Pacific bequeathed to us by the
Spanish War. 1t is one Of the
Ladrone Islands. or Islands of
thieves" thus named because when
they were discovered the art Of
stealing from each other was the
principal industry and delightful
occupation of their Inhabitants.
Guam is about 5000 miles west Of
San Francisc" and about 1892
miles from Yokohnma. 1t was
brought into captivity as a
martin prize by the American
cruiser Charleston. which, with
single shot, leveled its formidable
battlements and took possession of
this volcanic eruption in the name
of the United States. The old. Span
ish governor. who had been there
from time immemorial, was under
the impression that the Americans
were salnting him and appeared
upon the deck of the ship to tender
his apologies for not having any
powder with which to return the
compliment. He never discovered
the terrible state of affairs until
the Spanish colors were lower ed
from the parapet and the colors of
the Union floating in triumph
over this priceless gem Of the sea.
Guam is a charming spot and
one of the most lustrous and bril-
liant jewels in our orien tai galaxy.
Its principal products are vipers.
snakes. lizards, wild swine. rats and
castor-oil. and il the island were
put up at auction today. with all
