FOUND A HIDING PLACE.
Then They Got . Big Surprise Whom
Daylight Appeared.

Ssy"SVs SNPp~-
The father of Joseph Altsheler. the
writer Of war stories. was Prussian
who came to this country few years
before the war between the states
broke out and settled In Barren county,
Kentucky BY reason Of his foreign
birth the elder Altsheler was not sub
ject to draft by either army when hos
tilities began, but his southern SYM
pathies made him obnoxious to a group
Of bushwhackers who, posing as Fed
erals, infested the vicinity Of the Ken
tucky-Tennessee state line.
One starless, mOOnless night In the
summer of 1868 neighbor came with
the word that the bushwackers were
on their way to kill Mr.. Altsheler and
another resident of the vicinity who
had been OutspOken in his approval of
secession. 1t was not certain, the mes
senger said. which road Of two the
marauders would take to reach the
homes Of their proposed victims; but 1t
was certain that they would be along
soon.
Mr. Aitsheler and the other threat
ened man gathered up blanket apiece
and went into the woods to hide. In
the darkness they speedily lost all
sense Of direction. For an hour they
wandered about. seeking suitable
camping place. Finally they came to
spot that was free of trees and
where the ground felt smooth under
foot. So they spread their blankets
and went to sleep, secure In the be-
lief that no bushwhacker could find
them there.
The rising sun, shining in their faces,
walked them. They sat up and looked
around. They had been asleep all
night at the only place where the
raiders could not have failed to find
them had their plans been carried out
at the forks of the county road.-Satur-
