/ the certificate of my right to COM
mand without a committee. The gen.
eral was glad for my sake.
Meanwhile, my girls learned of my
arrival. They formed ranks, desiring
TO give me a cheerful welcome. My
presence seemed to have buoyed up
their depressed spirits. After COM
mending the women on their reception
went with them to mess. 1t was
my custom to eat the same food as
the girls. Only I seldom ate with
them. Before eating, I usually super
vised the mess, satisfying myself that
everything was plentiful and in good
order. I knew from experience that

Was it the promotion that put me
in happy mood, or my return to the

attached? I don't know But after
dinner it occurred to me that it would
! be the right thing to let the girls
! have some fun. So I suggested a
game and my soldiers took it up Joy
ously. AS the game proceeded, many
men gathered around the circle in
which 1t was going on. They watched
anxiously, clearly desirous to play
too. but not daring to join in for fear
lest / order the girls away. 1t was
! n great pleasure to observe how these

pate in the sports. But 1 looked In
different.
Finally they sent several delegates
to express their desire to me.

to you"

The soldiers reasoned that this was
no more than fair and consented to
such an arrangement. When they
asked me why I was so anxious to

wanted to ayenge my husband who
was slain early in the war. For this

For several days this state OF af-

became so annoyed that they ordered
their artillery to lombard my posi-

the opening of the big guns caused
tremendous excitement. Many of the
