Written soon after the war.
Editor the Times Dispatch,
Sir:
AS constant reader of your paper
and an old Confederate soldier. | en-

member of the 18th Virginia Regi-
ment. | wish to write what private

1864. On that day my regiment. 2

and Georgia Brigade we're on the

Very early that morning we were
ordered to move at n double-quick in
rear of point known as the death
Angle'-"Horse Shoe Bend" where
we formed line of battle in quick
time
Then General r. +. Lee and Gen.
j. b. Gordon rode up in front of my
regiment and told us that Gen. John
sons division had been captured, and
/ that unless we could retake the works
(three lines) he (Gen. Lee) would
have to retreat. He said he wanted
the Virginians and Georgians to stand
together, and when General Gordon

he General Leg would lead us. Just

THE MOST SERIOUS PHASE OF
THE SUBJECT.

There is phase-and the mos.
serious one-of the illicit manufac-
turer and sale of liquor in this and
other communities, which has per
haps not been duly emphasized. The
present "wave of crime" manifests
itself in only one direction-thc sale
of liquor. The mere fact that the
law is violated in the sale of liquor,
is not the chief thing The principle
is the same in the violation of law
in any direction. If party were tn
sell shoes, merchandise or any other
article in violation of law, the prin-
ciple would be the same A man is
just as culpablc, in the eyes Of the
law, who sells books or any com
modify whatsoever, without lie
ense and in defiance of the law, as
is the moonshners. If merchant
were to set up to sell groceries, dry
goods, automobiles or any commodity
whatsoever, in defiance of the laws
of the state, he would be Il violator
of the law. and would be so consider
ed. And so, the selling of liquor in
the community, which is causing so
much anxiety, trouble and cost in
money is only an incident-an indi-
cation of lawless condition exist
ing in society. a straw may show
the direction of the wind. A chip on
the surface indicates the direction
in which the stream is flowing. The
chip itself is only an incident. The
illicit sale of liquor is chip-it
shows the direction of the current.
1t points Enthusiastically to a condi-
ton of lawlessness amongst us-a
defiance of the laws of the State
and condition which should give
concern to every lover of morality
and safety.
This broader view of existing con-
dtions is not, seemingly app -eciat-
ed by the public. That we have. in
this county and other counties md
communities all over the state. u
large element Of lawless population
should give the churches, Sunda,
school workers as well as the autho
rites, deep concern. The violation
of the one law opens the way fol
the violation of all laws. a violatio,
of the law by citizen of the com
munity, knowingly and wilfully in
dicates that under the skin exists al
nnba,1{L,, o,,,,,,,,o1
The question recurs: What are w,
going to do about it? Can evil b
overcome with good? There are
large number of churches, minister
Sunday schools, public schools, al
army of good men and women il
this county and State, who are lay
abiding religious and moral. Nr
these great forces functioning?
all being done that can be and Shout
be, done to correct the evils exist
ing? Courts of justice are goo,
tools to employ. Some advocate an
justify powder and bullets. Thes
weapons will never eradicate ev
and sin. The moral and religion
forces of the country. properly OF
gained, inspired and guided ca
suppress any evil.
Other means employed heretofol
seem to be futile. We sing "Rescu
the Perishing," but singing wor
turn the trick, something else mu.
be done besides sing or preach frc'
the pulpit. We've been doing thcs
religious things for years and year
A change of tactics would sem |
imperatively demanded.

Report Of Grand Jury, Sep.
TENDER Term, 1921.
Thursday, Sept. 9th, 1921.

The Grand Jury visited and
inspected the County Farm,
found condition in general, good,
stock in good condition, feed of
all kinds well taken care of, as
buildings would permit. All
farming tools and Implements
stored away in sheds as far as
possible. We found the house
clean and sanitary so far As the
present accommodations would
permit.
The Grand Jury recommends
that the County Court have the
plumbing in the toilet so repair
ed that better ventilation for the
scape nf bad odor may be pro
vided. Also that a gasoline en-.
CINE be placed at the we'll to
pump wafer to the upper stories
80 that plenty of water can be
had for the keeping OF the toilet
in a sanitary coalition. We al.
so recon mend that they nuild a
chicken house for the proper
housing of the chickens. Also
that all wood work on the main
building be painted.
The records in the County
Clerk office do not show II com
plete settlement with the Coun,
ty Highway Board from May
1919, to May 1920, and from May
1920, to May 1921, therefore we
recommend that a settlement be
made at once with the Court
and that said settlementbe made
a matter of record IN the County
Clerk $ Office and published III
the County papers.
We further recon mend that
this account be audited by the
office uf the State Auditor.
We, the Grand Jury, find the
jail to be in Il good sanitary con
dition. with the exception uf the
closet ON the ground floor of the
north room. We Recommend
that the plumbing be so repaired
that it can be kept sanitary. 9th
