perfection Of the new technic.'
AS for the dean of music critics,
Henry +. Krehbiel, he would have
none of this sort of music and took
q whole column to explain why. Nor
could Deems Taylor Of the World
make head or tail of what Mr.. Casella
was trying to picture as happening on
this particular midnight. Richard
Aldrich, of the "Times" was almost
equally adverse in his judgment, de-
Tending his position by reminding the
public that because hard words are
said about new music does not neces-
sarily prove that it is good music, SIM
ply because it has often happened
that what has ultimately proved to be
a masterpiece was at first received
with derision. Among the younger
critics the attitude was more flexible.
Whether this fexibility is justified
time alone can tell.
A CONSPICUOUS feature Of these ad-
verse criticisms is that they all ac-
knowledge Casella's sincerity. No
one has called him poseur or man
seeking merely to astonish. All speak
of him as a composer believing in
himself and in that particular phase
of modernism of which he has for
many years been a foremost champi-
on in Europe. And all express as
tonishment that in some of his COM
positions the outline of his classical
life is so plainly visible.
Casella's first recital, given Nov
ember s, was expected to be his only
appearance in this capacity in New
York during the season. But such
was the interest he created that sec
ond and then third recital have been
arranged. And, just as Richard
Strauss left this country II years ago
more famous as a conductor than as
a composer, so may Casella leave
more famous as a pianist than as a
composer. And, unlike Strauss, he
may return in less than II years with
his achievement as composer far
outweighing any other claim he may
have to the worlds homage.

head of his men dashed acrcss the
river to the scene of the BATH; but
Shelby and the others had gone, car
rying their prisoners with hem. The
British pursued no further. Shelby
said afterward that this battle was
'the hardest and best fought action
that he was ever in" for there was a
large number of officers with him as
volunteers. Our troops were think
ing of making attack on Ninety Six
but Just then they learned of he dis
aster that had befallen our arms at
Camden and decided to retreat to
their friendly mountain to the north
west. They were pursued by s:rong
detachment of the men of the emo
torious Ferguson" who at one time
were only thirty minutes ride behind
the Americans; but being unaware of
this, turned back. Shelby and his
men went to their homes beyond the
mountains; Clarke took the mountain
trails and went back to Georgia; and
Williams took the prisoners and re-
tired to Hillsboro. Thus ended this
brilliant episode for the American
arms.

Shelby was on the right, Williams
in the center and Clarke on the left,
with twenty horsemen on the flank
under Josiah Culbertson. Capt. In
man, who had already done signal
service in Georgia, with about twen-
ty five mounted mer. went forward as
a decoy, to fire upon the British at
the ford, to provoke them to cross and
gradually to lead them into the am
bush prepare " Shelby and the 9TH
ers. The plan worked to perfection
and the British came forward in high
glee at forcing Inman at the point Of
the bayonet. Inman still kept up the
pretended resistance till the British
were near enough for our men to
"see the whites of their eyes" AS
the enemy were in about seventy
yards of the Americans, they being in
some confusion in the ardor of the
pursuit, were met with an unexpected
and deadly fire from our side, but
they bravely rallied and with force
numerically superior to ours, at
the point of the bayonet pressed on
the right wing of Shelby, which grad
ually gave way but his left wing hold
ing it's position. Clarke sent small
force to Snelby's assistance and this
relief was timely indeed; At this
juncture, Innes who led the attack
was shot from his horse by one of the
ri1emen from over the mountains,
upon which occurrence Shelby rallied
his men and gradually forcer the as
saulting party back, Culbertson's
fanking party doing yeoman service
just then. Major Fraser was also seen
to be wounded. Several of the offic-
ers of the enemy were shot down and
in the resulting confusion, Clarke and
the others made furious attack on
the enemy and soon drove them off the
field after about twenty minutes of
fighting, in much disorder. Capt.
Inman was pressing them with his
usual zeal and fell pierced by many
balls. The vocal discords made by
the retreating British together with
the means of the dying, with the yells
of the pursuers, the smoke, the noise
of battle-all made the occasion one
of great and exciting dramatic inter-
est. The whole thing soon became

with sword and rifle, butchered all
the enemy who were overtaken. Ma
ny of the British were shot as they
were crossing the rocky Enoree.
Capt. Sam Moore followed across
the river above where the main cross
ing was made, and fell into the enc
nnys fanks with such force that they
fled more wildly than ever. Some of
those who had been left behind at the
garrisons, even before the Tories had
recrossed the river, had begun to
make tracks toward the fort at Ninety
Six.
When the patrolling party who had
gone down the river returned and
learned of the complete rout, their
commanding officer with terrible
oath rose in his stirrups and at the

BATTEE OF MUSGROVE'S MILL.

1.
Th fight at Musgrove's mill was one
of the important battles of the Revo-
luton in South Carolina and shines
ike a brilliant jewel out of an un-
certain past. The date was August
18Th, 1889. This was only two days
after the disastrous defeat of Gates
at what is known as the Battle Of
Camden" but the participants in the
Musgrove affair were ignorant of the
results at Camden.
The leaders on the American side
were: Col. Shelby from the Holston
River Country in Tennessee (then
North Carolina, Col. Elijah Clarke
Of Georgia and Col. Williams, whose
home was on Little River, near the
Newberry-Laurens line, as l am in
formed. There had been some fight
ing at the cold Iron Works" some
miles further north than the Mus
grove place and Col. Ferguson had
left his wounded at Musgrove's and
had pushed on to the neighborhood of
what is now the city of Winnsboro to
await news of the battle of Camden.
Shelby and the others were camped at
Smiths ford near the North Carolina
line about forty miles away from
Musgrove's, on the evening Of the
18th of August. About two hundred
men left Smiths ford about sundown
of the 18th, and riding all night ar
rived about one mile north of the
Enoree, where the mill is located,
about dawn of the 18th. 1t was
agreed by Shelby, Williams and
Clarke that the commnad should be
held by all three jointly; and they
sent out a scouting party, who came
into conflict with Tory patrol, sew
eral being injured on each side. At
this juncture our people learned that
the British had been reinforced by
Capt. Innes from Ninety Six with a
troop of two hundred men-the regu-
lar garrison at Musgrove's being un-
der British officer, Major Fraser.
Some have conjectured that the entire
British force was five hundred men.
Our forces decided that it would be
rash to attack so large body of men
and that it would be equally hazard
Gus to retreat; and they were left no
alternative but to fight.
When the patrol came in with news
of the slight skirmish, there was wild
excitement in the British camp. Capt.
Innes was for marching over at once
and "bagging the whole lot Of scurvy
ragmufins" without waiting for the
patrol of one hundred men who had
gone about eight miles away, to re-
turn; and this was decided on.
Our forces took a position on
timbered ridge about half mile on
the other side of the mill and ford.
The lines were in semi-circle on the
top of the hill about three hundred
yards in length, concealed by the
woods, with a hastily improvised
breastwork of such material as was
at hand.
