y Scene to Be Remembered.

Charles B. Thomas, 51th y. Y Cav,
Chicago, ILL.,, writes:
I'm his Memoirs Sheridan says: I
did not pass through Newtown, but
around it, as the streets were so full of
troops that / was unable TO do so, pass
ing to the left of the pike I believe
the General was a little mixed as to
the exact place he did return to the
pike. He came back to 1t before hav-
ing passed entirely around the place.
Comrade Merret n. Chaffy, of my COM
pany, IF, 5th ". Y. Cav.), and then the
Commissary-Ser and myself had
been in the town to the right and west
of the turnpike or main street, on
vacant lot near the corner of a cross
street, for nearly an hour. resting and
grazing our horses. There were no
panic-stricken soldiers near US; every
thing was very quiet, and none near us
in large body, tho we could hear and
knew there was quite a force, a part of
the Nineteenth Corps, division, in
charge of wagon train, northeast of
the town, bivouacked on the right of
the pike.
ION hearing the cheering in the d.
rection of Winchester the Sergeant and
/ concluded that there was something
taking place of great interest, SO we
mounted our horses and rode to the
pike. We had just reached there when
after an officer of his staff or an orderly
had passed. we swung in behind and
followed, and halted under the shade of
a tree, and there witnessed a scene that
can never be efaced from my memory.
The General and the one soldier passed
from the pike to the right through n
gap in the stone wall or fence, and
crossed a cleared field to the headquar-
tiers of Gen. Weight. The first soldier
to see or discover that Gen. Sheridan
had arrived was an Orderly-Sergeant
lying on the ground in rear of his COM
pany, on the right of the second regi-
ment from the left of the line, as the
men at this time were lying on their
faces, many no doubt asleep. When
the General passed this Sergeant rolled
over onto his left side. AS he did so
the gallant horse and rider from Win
chester, 20 miles away. flashed by the
line of his vision. He leaped to his feet
and shouted in n loud voice: Sheridan
has comet" The line. extending into
the woods, arose and began TO cheer,
and threw hats, caps and canteens-in
fact anything they could get held of,
up into the air.
The 1st VT. Cav. had to their credit
IS pieces of artillery, besides many
other captures. The 5th N. Y. Cav.
had % pieces, also making many other
captures that night. including three
battle flags. A receipt to each regiment
was given by Gen. Custer for every
thing captured by them. 1 have copy

Indians Are Learning.

One of the very oldest divorce suits
ever heard of is probably that which
was field in Carson City, New, the other
day by Piute Indian squaw. Her name
is Minnie Galbreth, and she had some
education. She married an Indian some
seven years ago with the church Cere-
mony. A missionary among Indians
by the name of Dr. Pike officiated. Min
ME was a very canny young sGuaw, and
ministered to the nicer necessities of
Carson City by doing very excellent
laundry work. If her work was fine,
her prices were finer, for she managed
to lay aside several thousand dollars.
All this happened before Minnie was
married. Now there is a little papoose.
The papoose's papa is altogether too
fond of 81 CIR more varieties of tangle-
foot In other words. he is alleged by
~ wife to be n confirmed drinker. He
was arrested recently for beating her
and half killing the baby. Minnie has
now filed n suit for divorce, saying that

Sheridan'S Horse,

William II. Beach, First Lieutenant
and Adjutant, 1st n. Y. Cav, Seneca
Falls, N. Y, writes:
My regiment, the Isl n. Y. Gin
coln) Cav, was in PowelPs Division,
encamped on the road between Win
chester and Front Royal The Pay
master had visited us, and Oct. II a
large detail of the regiment escorted
him to Martinsburg. Gen. VIM. H.
Seward, son OF the Secretary of State,
was in command of that post. Two of
the officers of my regiment, Capt. Jas.
ID. Stevenson and Capt. e. c. Watkins,
were serving on Gen. Stewards staff. l
remember hearing Capt. Stevenson say
that he and Watkins gave up their
room at the United States Hotel that
night TO Gen. Sheridan. who had just
returned from Washington.
II had had some acquaintance with
Gen. Seward, and l recently wrote him
asking him to give me his recollections
for the benefit of The National Tribune
readers. He writes: 1T is my present
recollection that Gen. Sheridan arrived
in Martinsburg from Washington with
some of his staff about dark on the
evening of Oct Il, and remained over
night at Mrs. Straub's United States
Hotel, where Capt. E. A. Watkins, my

Sheridan, and carly next morning rode
out part way with him on the Win
chester pike, returning to my head
quarters during the morning. Gen.
Sheridan arrived at Winchester about
p. m. that day, remaining there over
night, and started early on the morn
ing of the 18th for Cedar Creek
1T has been stated that Sheridan
had been intending to withdraw his
army from Cedar Creek to Winchester
for the Winter, and with his engineers
had been looking over suitable places
for camps. At daylight on the 18th
an officer from the picket line about
Winchester brought word into town
that there was heavy firing along the
front. Between s and o'clock Sheri-
dan. with some Of his officers, mounted
and rode at walk out OF Winchester.
AT Mill Creek. a mile south of town,
the escort was waiting. AS the General
and his officers passed the escort fell
in behind them.
The sound of heavy firing came to
them. over hill a train that had
started FOR the front had halted. The
Quarternaster in charge stated that an
officer had come from the front and
advised him to so back with his train.
as the army had been attacked and
driven back. The officer having given
his warning had started for the front
again.
sheridan directed Maj. Forsyth to
select so of the best mounted men
from the escort. and said: You and
Capt. OKeefe will go with me- Then
he touched spur to his horse and was
OFF. Only a few of the escort were
able to keep in sight of him.
This same noble horse was intrust-

Brooklyn, n. Y, writes:
"Sheridans Shenandoah campaign
from August, 1864. to JAM. 1, 1865, just
five months of activity, resulted in 16,.
S52 Union killed, wounded and miss-
ing. The Confederate losses in killed
and wounded are not definitely known,
but from Aug. 1, 1864, to March 1,
1865, they lost in prisoners some $4,000,
of whom 1900 were unwounded. From
Aug. /, 1861, 10 Jan. 1, 1865, they lost
10l pieces of artillery, SO artillery car
riages and linbers, 35 caissons 1913
double sets OF artillery harness, two
anvils, 5,06f snIall-arms, $4,000 rounds

to the Confederacy and inhabitants OF

Of honor. The Vermont Commandery

Gen. T. 8. Peck, Of Burlington: Col. L.
@. Leavens, Of Richford, and Capt.

1862 enlisted in the 18th VT, in which
he became a Second Lieutenant. He

the 18th VT. Last year he presented
his native town with a monument which
was dedicated at the Annual Reunion

CAPTURE of Rsnlseur.

command of the 1st Vt. Cav. at Cedar
Creek Hartland, Vt. writes:
In the battle of Cedar Creek in The
National Tribune of Dec. 1, it is stated;

That statement is an error. Fred

burg That is true Sas to part of
their respective commands, but from
point few rods south of Cedar
Creek they both came down the same

Division Commander Harris.

J. w. Wolf. Co. A, 18th W. Va, Rock
land, o., writes:
Il have waited until now hoping some
of Gen. Harris's- old staff officers would
correct Comrade Karr's statement con-
corning Gen. T. NJ. Harris.
Gen. Harris Cat that time Colonel of
the 9th w. Va.) on the morning of the
battle at Cedar Creek was in command
of the Third Brigade. First Cor indie

Thoburn, of the LIST w. Va, was in COM
nland of the division, and was mortality
wounded on that morning. The COM
mand of the division then devolved
upon Gen. (then ColoneD Harris.
Il am not writing this statement from
memory alone, for the General told me
once that the division flag came to him
on the field that day. 1 also have a
published statement to the same effect,
prepared by the General. 1 think the
above correction shows conc!usively
that Maj. Karr has simply forgotten the
name of this division commander on
