HOW p|GMAN AND LATOEN
RETURNED FROM the WAR
"reminiscences OF DR.. Pendle-
tons Company At Close
OF the Strife.

Beaver Dam, KY, Aug. Alter
the last battle had been fought on
the Attn day of May, 1865, the 9th
XIV. battle flag that had waved over
our boys on so many hard contested
battlefelds was folded up. never to
wave over our boys again, in the
little town of Washington, Ga.
when we received our paroles, If
lam not mistaken, there were %
of our boys remaining out of 100
that left Ohio and Muhlenberg
counties four years before with DR..
j. f.. Pendleton to fight for the
cause of the South. We were pa
rolled without any money and not
much clothing and were many miles
from home. We were to return
home as best we could. We had
nothing to eat, but the Federal au-
thorities informed us that If we
would go to Augusta, Ca, they
Nouid issue us rations and give us
transportation home.
After being delayed at Washing
ton some days, trying to sell our
horses, we left for Augusta, which
was about rs miles distant. Now
there were two boys in our compa-
nv known as Pigman and Ladder.
They started through horseback
and the balance of us went on the
train. Steve Rowan failed to sell
his horse and gave 1t to Pigman to
sell for him, as he went through
the country. Now, Pigman and
Ihdden were travelling through a
devastated country and they tried
every farm they passed to get some
thing to eat and failed.
The first or second day in the ev-
ening they stopped at farmhouse.
A lady came out and they told her
they wanted their suppers and had
the money to pay for it, but the
good lady informed them she had
nothing for them. They still had
Rowan's horse and being again re-
fused any thing to eat, Pigman be-
came desperate and said: Madam,
Vhave a good horse. saddle and bril-
die that we will give you for our
suppers and our horses being fed
She then said: Lead the horse in
the yard and let me look at him."
After looking at the horse she told
them to dismOunt and said: IF
you will put up with my fare. it
will be a trade" She had a negro
woman to get corn out of the eel
lar for their horses and gave them
a good old-fashioned supper.
They arrived in Augusta. where
We were all together again. The
Federal Government had given us
to eat. Rowan saw that
Mis- horse was gone and was delight
ed over their selling it. as he had
failed. He asked Pigman what he
received for his horse. Pigman in
formed him he had done well with
his horse-that he had sold him
for a good meal for himself and
Laden.
After few days Pigman, Char
lie Chinn and myself started for
home. We got as far as Chatta-
nooga. where they put us in prison
and informed us we would not be
Hermitted to come home, but would
be sent back South. But after

Players Put Demands Up
TO Baseball Mu0nutes

that he Is not under salary. he is forced
to remain Idle for n period Of ten days
unless one of eight particular teams
should want him"
The players hold that an "uncondl-
tional' release should be what It rur-
ports to be, and that the player so re-
leased should he free to contract for
the future. Dealing with this question,
the request OF the players says:
AT the present time. when a major
league player receives ten days notice
of his unconditional release, he Is not
permitted during that time to sign with
any team outside Of the league in which
he has been playing. n team in tho
other major league should offer him 500
per month and Q team In his old league
500. he must accept the latter ofYer.
Thus. notwithstanding the fact that he
has received his 'unconditionai' releas se
and that he knows he will b without a
job at the expiration Of the ten days. he
cannot do business with any team out
Of his league
Protection for the veteran player Is
also asked for In the petition In these
words:
Records show that tho big league lifJ
OF a player is only few years. When
a man has given the best years of his
life to organized ball. Is reaching the
end of his baseball career and Is nd
longer wanted in the class In which he
has rendered service we believe he
