George W's Georgia Lament" gives
promise of bearing fruit soon Hardly
anyone in the Georgia brigade thinks
forty days will find the soldiers of the
Empire State of the South in Texas
The tests of the last few days seem to

And other incidents make all believe
that the time is drawing nearer for
them to quite the border.

The Georgia troops, aided by the
33rd Michigan, completely route the
Ohio brigade commanded by Gen.
Speaks, and in a second Gettysburg
the tables were turned. If there had
been a war correspondent present, the
communication to his paper would
have read like the above. But on one
hut the desert, and a few thousand
boys clad in khaki witnessed the great
battle of The Mesa" But even if there
was no one present to record the
bloody encounter the Georgia boys with

boys return. Company l will sit
around Hooks or back of the tele-
phone exchange in Americus. and tell
of the bone-headed Ohio boys who
walked right between two fires. And
the Arlington Guards, a detachment Of
Co. l. when they reach Calhoun coun-
ty, will sit around the courthouse, spit
tobacco juice, and talk about Sergeant
Bernard Bostwick's brave charge with
orders from headquarters.
1t was really great big battle, with
plenty of ammunition, and ten thous-

keep their powder dry" The order
was received early Tuesday morning

Enemy Machine Gun Squad Routed
AT ten o'clock the enemy was found,
and the Albany (Ga.) company was the
first to reach the firing line. Captain
Saye secured a good position on hill.
Company / was next to reach the scene
of the hostilities, and together with
the Albany company routed the enc

endeavOring to entrench. Following
sharp fire by the Georgians, the Ohio
boys retreated, and the Southerns took
their position Here's where the mas
sacre occurred. The Second Georgia
regiment was deployed on long line,
the strongest positions held by them
were two hills, with a smaller rise be-
tween them. A battalion of Ohio troops
rushed to the smaller hill and became
exposed to the fire of the entire Second
Georgia regiment, resulting disas-

here, and the Georgia boys turned Their

In the afternoon the Fifth Georgia and

sent to occupy the positions captured
by the wiregrass boys, and at two
o'clock the Ohioans ran up their white
flag, and Gettysburg was reversed.
