His after life is known to every Alabama schoolboy or should be. lie saw ser vice in Mexico and in 1861 he formed a Confederate regiment. There peins no available arms for the soldiers he equipped them out of his private purse at an expense of s2S,ooo in gold.
 At Shiloh when General Gladden. was wounded on the first day he LOOK charge of his brigade. On the second day two horses were killed under him and he was severely wounded. on ms recovery he led his regiment through the Kentucky campaign. AL Chlcha- mauga he struck Shermans flank, rout- ed him and captured IT pieces or ar tillery. He was wounded again al Franklin. When Gen. Edward Johnson was captured at Nashville he led that division out of a difficult situation. With Johnston he passed through ms native state. now In ruins, to the close of the war in North Carollna' Alter the war he engaged in business in New York city, where his death occurred in 1882.
 The other four generals were of Cam den's best blood Their deeds of valor have been written into the history of the south. and of the country, and need no eulogy just here One fact respecting James Bordenave Villipigne may be of in- terest It is said that he rode horseback from I,tah to South Carolina in order to place his services at the disposal of his beloved state, for her protection. How the fires of patriotism must have burned within that ardent soul So much for the generals. That the spirit of patriotism animated no less the privates than the or ficers is shown by the fact that with a voting population of only l2oo men, Kershaw gave 150O men, or more to the cause which was lost
 In the list of privates We find the rame If Richard Kirkland, who immor- talized himself at Fredericksburg through q deed of bravery and of surpassing kind ness. such as is probably not eclipsed ill all history. How we'll he had learned the lesson of the Good Samaritan Is shown in the following sketch: Kirkland was the son of farmer in the upper part of Kershaw county and enlisted as pri- vate when mere boy. He was made lieu tenant after Fredericksburg. It seems that cn the day after Fredericksburg General Kershaw's brigade, to which Kirkland belonger. occupied the road at the foot of Mary's hill. About 15O yards in front of the road was a stone wall. Across 1t sikes' division of United States regu- lars. 5000 strong, lay. The skirmishing was incessant, and between the lines and the wall lay the dead and wounded fed erals The cries of the wounded and dy- ing had sounded all night and all day. Kirkland stood it until he could do so no longer. Then going from one officer to another sought permission to carry

Letters to the Editor
Camden, S., C., in Civil War ] tha Editnr of Tha A Ape-Harald. :.

| To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 | The Charleston S. C., Sunday News of
 May 21, 1911, prints an account of the dedication at Camden, S. C., on May 20 of two drinking fountains, one to the
 memory of the six generals given by this patriotic little town to the Con l federate cause; the other in memory of Richard Kirkland, a son of Kershaw l county. of which Camden is the cap ital, who won undying fame on the battlefield of Frederick ksburg The ded- l lication of these memorials should be of immediate interest to Alabamians since two of the six generals whom Cam den has thus honored enlisted from Alabama. I refer to Generals Deas and Cantey. The, names of the six gen. erals are Kennedy, Deas, Kershaw, Can- tey, Chestnut and Villepique General James Cantey was born in or near Camden in 1918, was educated and practiced law there and served Ker-
 shaw in the legislature. He served in
 Captain Moffatt's command in the war
 with Mexico and was wounded at Cher
 ubusco. He settled in Alabama in
 1S49 and at the beginning of hostilities
 in '61 formed a regiment and was
 elected colonel of the same. He was
 with the beloved Stonewall during his
 Sh enandoah campaign and was pro-
 noted on his recommendation for val
 iant service at Cross Keys and Port
 Republic. In 1868 he formed bri-
 gade and led it through the bloody campaign from Missionary Ridge through Dalton, Resaca, Atlanta, the Hundred Days and on to Bentonville.
 He was for time in command of three
 brigades and at the end of the war
 he had reached the rank of major gen eral. General Cantey lies buried here In

I want your permission to give those poor fellows some water" At first the general refused, but after again warn- ing Kirkland he finally consented. Filling as many canteens as he could carry Kirk land leaped over the wall into the midst of thousands of flying bullets and his dying foes and gave them water at the risk of his own life.
 After giving water to several of the dying federals the federal army saw his mission and gave a mighty cheer and ceased firing. For one hour and a half he ministered thus. and both sides seeing, understood, and his life was safe" Kirk land was killed at the battle of Chicka- mauga.
