OLD SOLDIER TELLS OF. 1.-THE STIR
RING DAYS OF LONG AGO.

April 9Th, 54 years ago, RObt. E. Lee
surrendered to General Grant. A. M.
Idol, Of this city, tells of incidents be-
fore and at the time of surrender as
follows:
''On Sunday April 2, 1865, we fought
the terrible battle known as Five
Forks where General Grant fanked us
and broke ~ouE lines. causing us, to re
treat. We started to retreat about 4
o'clock that afternoon. Our command
reached the Aippomattox about dark
that evening. Our corps, commanded
by Gen. j. B. Gordon, as brave a, man
as ever graced a battlefield, was or
dered to bring up the, rear which we
did, skirmishing the greater portion
of each day and marching at night to
reach our army. On the afternoon OF
Friday, April Z, we fought our last
battle known as Sailors Greek, near
Farmville, Va. On Saturdy there was
very little firing during the day.
<On Saturday night we camped near
Appomattox court house. Early on
Sunday morning we were ordered to
fall in line crossed the creek near the
village, passed through the town re
distance, and formed line of bait e
along a hillside near a. fence. Remain
ing there but a short time the sharp
shooters were ordered to move for
ward The command to which [ be-
longed known as first battalion, North
Carolina sharpshO composed OF
two companies, taken from the old 21st
North Carolina regiment which when
mustered into service had II cOmpa-
nies, companies A and B, the company
which I belonged composed that
battalion commanded by Maj. R. E.
Wilson who lost one of his legs on
the morning of Sunday, April 2, in a
charge. To make the story short, we
lost six commissioned officers out of
eight, and so per cent of our bat
talon. III
GAS have already stated, the sharp
shooters commanded as a whole by
Major Devon, of South Carolina, pass
ed on over the brow Or crest of the
hill. When WE started down across
the field the Union army threw out it's
line of sharpshooters which was al
most equal to our line of battle. We
moved forward quite distance when
we were ordered to halt:
Immediately the news came down
our line that we had surrendered and
we were ordered to the rear only to
find that our. command had moved
back and had stacked arms. Some
were shedding tears, some were ours
ing and so on.
''I have related just few things
that happened 81 years ago today
when one among the most noble, brave
and honorable who, being so greatly
outnumbered, to save his own men,
surrendered his shattered forces to
General Grant, not whipped but over
powered

PRESIDENT IS RUNNING THE
Il WHOLE BUSINESS.

Raleigh, April 10. - Champ Clark,
former speaker OF the house of repre-.
sentatives spending tonight in Raj
eigh, declared that "the league of ma
tions plan as finally amended, will sat
isfy every reasonable human being.
The league of nations is not a new
idea; it is as old as the nations them
selves. I think President Wilson is
running the whole business over
there" After a slight pause the Miss
ouri statesman. said: ''He ought to,
and that's all there is about the
league of nations the league can be
discussed in two minutes.
Questioned as to universal military
training, Mr.. Clark said: Every per-
son on earth with any sense who does
not make money out of war wants
peace and eternal peace" He ex-
pressed himself as dead against uni
versal training for America" which he
prophesied will never come" There
is not chance of that program being
adopted. Ask any soldier back from
France what he thinks of it and he
will tell you he's against it. I ask all
the folks who come in my office about
it and they all are opposed to it."
