Which He ACCUSES ANOTHER

GEORGETOWN, Del, Feb. l2.-Jame-
Dcshields, the prosecuting witness

lays II he had ever experienced any
embarrassments occasioned by the
resentments Of those who suffered in
war days or had been in any way an
aoyed by those with whom he had had
experience in war days.
Gen. Sherman meditated a moment
or two and then, with the cordial
smile which was characteristic Of him
in days OF peace. replied that he did
suffer from one postiferous annoyance
which was continued for some years
after the close of the war.
In the campaign which followed the
battle OF Shiloh sometimes called
Pittsburgh Landong-Gen. Sherman
had as a body servant a quaint but
faithful colored man who was assid-
uoUs in his attentions and who always
took especial pains TO find something
with which to tempt Gen. Sherman's
appetite.
Occasionally he brought to the gen.
eral pork in good enough condition TO
be boiled so that it could be eaten
with hard tack and greens with relish.
But Whenever Gen. Sherman asked
this colored man where he got the
dehcacies-for meat OF that kind was
then delicacy-the man always re-
piled that he found them, aud would
give no other explanation.
Upon one occasion this colorod man
came TO the generals tent bringing
a very tempting piece OF cheese. 1t
was n delicacy especially acceptable
TO Gen Sherman at that time. But
when he asked the servant where he
got the cheese. the sole reply was,
General, ] found it,"
After a while. Gen. Sherman learn
ed a sutier claimed that the colored
servant took the cheese from the suit
ler's tent The sutler afterward
made demand upon Gen. Sherman
for payment for this cheese. The de-
mand was denied, but the sutler kept
at IT, After the war was ended. when
ever he rad an opportunity he poster
ID Gen. Sherman
There was no moral or legal obli-
CATION to make payment to the sut.
Ter, for there was no proof that the
colored man had actually found the
cheese in the suffers store. This pes
teling, Gen. Sherman said. after a
time became d greater annoyance tC
him than any other experience OF hii
after the war. in fact about the only
one He could. he said. have put an
end TO il il he had paid the man, but
he did not believe that he ought tc
buy freedom from annoyance by max
ing any payment. At last. the de-
rnand ceased and Gen. Sherman said
that from that time on all his asso-
Citations and experiences were de
lightful.
