MAJOR HERNDON'S WAR
MEMORIES

MEMORIES
Among the trustees Of Berea
gathered at Commencement was the
venerable Major Herndon, Of Lancas-
ter, Kentucky, who was distinguished
some years ago by his maintenance Of
the local option law in Garrard,
Lincoln, and neighboring counties.
He was native of Estill county,
studying law with his old com
mander, Colonel Barnes.
A representative of The Citizen
drew from him some vivid reminis-
cences of the Civil War. Those Of
greatest interest concerned Kirby
Smiths invasion of Kentucky. Hern-
don was present at the battle of
Perryville and Enew the details Of
the Battle Of Richmond from com.
rades and neighbors who were there.
The Battle Of Richmond ought never
to have been fought. The Union
commander, Manson, was not a
trained soldier, and disobeyed orders
which would have stationed him at
Lancaster so as to prevent the South
ern Army from pressing on to Lex
ington for fear Of force on their
flank. But Manson was anxious to
fight a battle and put his small and
unframed army in the path Of Kirby
Smiths advance at a point just south
of the Mt. Zion church house between
Berea and Richmond OF course, his
forces were speedily out fianked and
routed. General Nelson, his supe
rior officer, arrived on the field after
the battle was already lost. He was
a West Pointer and strict disciplin-
arian and man of frey passions.
He tried to turn back the retreating
soldiers, and when they failed TO
obey, struck some of them with the
back of his saber In a short time
he was carried wounded from the
field, and il was the belief Of many
that he was wounded by one Of his
own men.
Kirby Smith and Bragg, who came
in by another road, dominated the
State for nearly six weeks, gather
ing much booty and undertaking to
inaugurate a Confederate governor
at Frankfort-ceremoni that were
interrupted by Union cannon balls
and ended in a precipitate evacua-
ton of the city.
Gradually they were withdrawing
from the State when they fell in
with Union forces at Perryville and
were compelled to fight. Colonel
Barnes regiment, Of which Herndon
was a member, was rushed at double
quick for a distance Of eight miles,
pausing at intervals to lie down on
the roadside and catch their breath.
They reached the field just in time to
see the Southern forces broken and
in fight.
General Buell., the Union command
er, was accounted derelict in allow
ing the enemy TO escape with so
much booty. He was strangely in
active in his tent during the battle
and as his loyalty was not challeng-
ed, he was suspected Of being intoxi-
Gated
Major Herndon is something past
seventy-seven years of age and has
been a trustee Of Berea since 1897.

Senator Lodge Lays Plan Be- fore Plenary Session of
 Arms Conference.
TEN YEAR AGREEMENT
 FOR FOUR COUNTRIES
Paves the Way for Settle ment of the American
 Reduction Proposals.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-United States Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, of Massachusetts, member of the American delegation, today formally laid before the plenary session of the arms conferences a draft of the proposed Four Power treaty which will supplant the Anglo-Japanese alliance and pave the way for the acceptance of the American naval reduction proposals.
 The treaty proposal is a ten year agreement in which Great Britain. Japan, France and the United States bind themselves in respect to their existing rights in insular possessions and dominicns in the Pacific and in case of disputes which cannot be settled by diplomacy, agree to a joint conference among themselves. Any party may withdraw from the Four Power treaty on twelve months notice.
 The treaty requires approval or the Senate for confirmation.
 The proposed treaty was not sign ed formally today but has been. iaxs itialed by representatives of the four powers as affirmed. f..sa Lodge Gives Views. iGe
 Senator Lodge said, in part: The surest way to prevent war and to remove the causes of war, over great area of the globes surface is by reliance upon good faith and honesty of the intentions of nations which sign a treaty solving all dif- ferences through a process of diplo macy and joint consideration and conciliation.
 No doubt we shall hear t said that the region which this agree ment applies is one most unlikely to give birth to serious disputes and thtrefore an agreemnt of this char acter is of little consequence.
 '.History unhappily has shown that there is no corner of the earth so remote or so valueless that it is, incapable of giving cause for con- troversy or war"
 Declarations Made. | Former Premier Viviani,. of France, declared that he conference has fully and entirely succeeded" and that France adhered to the pact without reservation.
 1 Arthur James Balfour asserted the treaty will benefit international ar rangements He referred to the abro- gation of the Anglo-Japanese Ali ance and said there had never been any intent in 1t to touch the in- terests of the United States.
 Prince Tokugawa voiced Japan's qualification over the pact
