Il was No. l man in my gun crew.
We had six pieces in our battery. We
caught the Yanks all right when we
came up. Some of them were playing
cards. Some were killing beef. Some
of them were playing the devil when
we came in. We found whisky. They
had their guns stacked, and they
didn't know we we're anywhere around.

1T was about 9 o'clock when
Jackson was shot. He went out to
see just how he caught the Fed

some new troops we're coming up, and
they did not know who he was. They
thought he was a Federal and shot
up his whole party"
Jackson died eight days later of
pneumonia. Lee mourned him like a
brother. DR.. Douglas S. Freeman of
Richmond, Civil War authority, who
broadcast a running description of

we can only have a fictitious

adherence Of religious intolerance,
made it clear that his refusal was
not to. be interpreted as an act of
indifference.
Carmody, in making public the

has asked only for investigation OF
the rights denied American citizens
and Of the cruel oppression by that
government of its own people,
sought by the Borah resolution"
The presidents reply, ne stated,

called for congressional determine

Mr.. Roosevelt told Carmody. a
