a very stubborn man. while, the contrary
among Grants most valuable characteristics were
his open-mindedness and his wonderful faculty of
putting lessons once learned into practice.
Behind that impassve face this silent man was
holding substantial scheme for putting down the
secession. This scheme embraced the general
movements of all the great armies of the United
States and involved the intelligent cooperation
of half score of loyal general commanders.
Grant had evidently such implicit confidence in
this general plan that incident of battle, march
or siege could disturb his equanimity.
Only once in my presence In that whole cam
paign did he betray the slightest perturbation or
vexation. That was with his chief subordinate
the fatal morning of the Petersburg mine ex
plosion. After the mine had been fired it was
absolutely necessary thar the assault should he in
stantly made. We waited long time to hear the
cheers of the men they would charge through
the breach. At last, facing the stalwart com
msnder of the army. he cried: "Why don't the
boys go in?" And on Meatie--to whom this seemed
a new idea7-starting. to -stQmyser some reply,
Grant gave him one look of intense disgust. and.
wheeling his horse, rushed headiong to the front
An example of this resolute faith occurred at
the Wilderness. When affairs were In the most
terrible confusion on our left, an officer rode up
and reported, in an excited manner that Han
cock had been cut off and captured Grant was
sitting on the ground with his back to a tree. He
did not even get to his feet. He quietly took his
pipe from his mouth and said that hs-did not be-
Iieve it. And he was right. II was during this
battle that he gave me "a characteristics. message
to insert In my dispatch TO the Tribune. "TeTI the
people that everything is going syimmlpgly down
here" This was in the midst of an engagement
which was at least indecisive. and in which all hs
plans were being frustrated

Gen. Granville M Dodge, whose story of the hear
ing makes companion piece to the last days Of
Nathan Hale. Here is the story General Dodge
tells it.:
81 took him to my private office and told him
it was very serious charge brought against him;
that he a spy. and from what found upon
his person, he had accurate information in regard
to my army and must know where he obtained
1t. told him he a young and did not
seem to realize the danger he was in. Up to that
time he had said nothing but then he replied in
a most respectful and dignifed manner:
General Dodge, 1 know the danger of my
situation and I am willing to take the
quences.'
az know that I'll have to die, but I will not tell
where I got the information. And there is no
power on earth that can make me tell. You are
doing your duty soldier and 1 am doing
mine. If have to die, do so feeling that am
doing my duty to God and my country
81 pleaded with him and urged him with all the
power that possessed to give me some chance to
his life, for 1 had discovered that he a
most admirable young fellow, with the highest
character and strictest integrity. He then said:
1T is useless to talk to me. l do not intend to do
it. You can court-martial me- but 1 will not betray
the trust reposed in me-. He thanked me for the
interest had taken in him, and sent him back
to prison. I Immediately called a court-nartial
to try him."
Even then the boy received offers of liberty II
he would betray his confederate. He would not.
