had gone and what she was doing.
AS for me. would not have raised
my hand TO know. My sisters pres

had little In common. On the other
hand. loved Billy. her baby. from
the first instant when | had caught
sight Of him In Marion's arms In the
station. To have my sister 20 and
leave the baby to me seemed the
happiest possible solution OF my diff
ficulties. For. as ! explained to
Stella:
"Why should wear myself out
trying To find out where Marion Is?
She IL old enough TO take care OF
herself: and II | were to find her,
you see. wouldn't want her back
again"
Beth" replied Stella, you are

Stella's idea OF where and how my

she must have obtained a position

love for Billy was so great that II
was rather a joy than otherwise TO
have his complete care devolve
upon me. Accordingly IT was Stella
who took the initiative in our
search for my sister After n few
pointed inquiries. which brought us
no real information. Stella said to
me:
There's Just one way OF doing
this. Beth. and doing II quickly.

MEDAL PRESENTED
COLONEL MOSbY
OF VIRGINIA HON.
ORS ONE OF MOST NOTED
ALUMNI

Charlottesville, Feb. 15.-The Uni
versity of Virginia, his alma mater, has
conferred upon Colonel John S. Mosby,
of Confederate guerrilla war fame.
bronze medal of honor as an appre-
citation OF the dignity. diligence and
sagacity with which you have served
your reunited country at home and
abroad" The medal was presented
Colonel Moshy at his home in Wash
ington, Saturday. by DIR. Charles w.
Kent in behalf Of President Edwin A.
Alderman and the university faculty.
The old warrior was deeply affected
by the gift.
The presentation of the medal will
doubtless pave the way for q RE-
union between Colonel Mosby and
thousands of his griends in Virginia.
Forty years ago Colonel Mosby and
many of his Virginia friends became
estranged because of his Friendship for
President Grant Colonel Mosby be-
came the target of bitter denunciation
and attacks by many In his native
State when he supported the former
Union general for President. AT one
time the feeling was so intense that
Colonel Moshy accepted commission
abroad
DR. Kent. in his address presenting
the wedai to Colonel Mostly refers to
the friendship General Grant as well as
General Lee had for him.
