care Jubal Early, C. S. Shenandoah Yailey," which led to some vigorous cursing when old Jubal f-aw From aU accouuts he was a boss cussr. When tbe Laurel Brigade, under General Rosser. came to grief in the cavalry fight called Woodstock Hace" General Early was in Newmarket and the first information of the defeat was brought by a sko.iaddlin cavalryman, who was captured and brought to the General.

The man wore a sprig of laurel iu his oap, indioating that he was a Lauroi Brigader, and the General cursed hira soundiy and told him to throw away the laurel and replace it with some kind of running vine 38 a more appropriate emblem for their brigade. A few months later, while in winter camp near the men of his command were almost ready to break out in open mutiny on account of want of many comforts and necessaries, One day he was ridiug through camp when some of the men called out a he rode along, "Rains'" Hntiins!" Tonts!" Xiothes He said Blank- ctb!" "Blankets!" nothing until he reached the oamp ot the Laurel Brigade when they took up the cry and "rorage! fell oti his ear. When he got to the miidle of their camp he ruined in his horse and looked at them a moment and then called out with savage emphasis 'Woodstock races, you!" 'Woodstock races!" Whereupon there was a dead silence in that camp and he rode on his way smiling grimly. Ifc was told of him that when' commanding a regiment in one of the fights in the beginning ot tbe war an officer came to him in great excitement and said Colonel. the enemy are in our rear." Said the Colonel: "Well, sir, I'll be damned if we won't about face and then we will be in their rear." He was a sturdy old fighter and made as.

good a defense of the valley as was possible under the circumstances. He was very deficient in good cavalry, lm-boden, McNeil, O'Parrell, Gilmore, White, Mosby and other bodies of partisan rangers had the material in their commands to make a first class cavalry command il they had been consolidated in one brigade with an efficient commander, which, with Wickham's Brigade and Rosser's, would have given him an efficient body of cavalry. But the independent commands, under leaders who had been accustomed to range at will, were rather insubordinate when together and were very little service. Mosby had more brains than any of them aud managed to carry on a self-sustaining warfare and did not cost the Confederate Government One dollar for supplies during the entire war. He turned in an immense amount of property in the horses, mules, wagons and arms, to his government and his meu were always well mounted, well fed aud well armed.

One night I was going from Luray to Newmarket with a dispatch from General Torbert, to Gen eral Sheridan and met in Newmarket Gap a solitary horseman, who did not draw quite as quick as I did and so I took him into camp with me. He proved to be one of Mosby who had been away on a leave for a month. He had been to Baltimore during his trip. He II .1.1 i tola me tnat ne carried witn nim over $2,000 in greenbacks, whicn was his share of the money captured from some of our paymasters by Mosby. lie had worn our uniform and went free on lie passes taken from some of our men who had been captured on their way to the North or furlough.

I often met solitary horsemen while riding along through the woods, and sometimes my experience was of an ex citing nature. Generally they were Con federates, and as my business was not to fight or capture, but to get information, i usea to De Inonaiy witn all. was watchful, of course, and always had Derringer hid in my sieeve in case ot sudden attack; but a pcnet pistol, filled wuh good apple brandy, was the best weapon to use in dealing with strangers. and that and a plug of first class tobacco was my surest passport. Some ol the old valley cavalry used to buy counterfeit Confederate money in Philadelphia which came in sheets, each containing an assortment of notes.

one each of the denomioations'of $1,000, $500, 1100, $50 and $10. Each sheet was called a full hand. These we could buy for ten cents a sheet and when cut apart, rubbed with some dirt and carried for a few days between the folds of our saddle blankets to give them age and rone they were well calculated to deoeive ana passed readily among the people at the usu'al discount on grayback currency. Our men used it mainly for poker money and stranger going through the camp at night and seeing a light in tent and hearing one voice oall out, I will see your bet of $5,000 and raise you $10,000," or "I copper the ace for $15,000, would be very apt to think he was among a iot ot milhonares This money could not be passed by tne men generally, put tne scouts used i i' i it ireeiy auu uon i a. now wnat we could have done without it.

At one time I had made an arrangement with an old een Lsewau umcu "uiier, near fluaaietown. to buy me a small snug farm with this kind ot money and had in his hands and a farm selected.

But General bhendan hung a citizen one day 1 oi suspicion or Deing a spy and scared old Mr. Miller so that he made me take the money back and soon after 1 lost it at poker to alentme, one of the Firet iN ew ore scouts. There was various opinions as to the morality of passing this bogus money on the unsuspecting people, but we always quieted our consciences with the coven-ient sophistry that we were inflating the Confederate currency for the good of the Union cause, thus striking, treason a blow below the belt and doing something i I i ur work one hand with our Press.

Now I will speak of another soldier who died on the atce day. His name was Sant'ord, and he wse in the prime ot life. It was rcaliy pathetic the way he spoke of his wile aad home. The surgeon promised hira a farlough, and when i went and told him we had writ- on jt hs wife to come and take hoaie I shall never torgct his expreion as ce exolaimed: Am 1 to see my wire and home." Alas the poor fellow did not live to see wife again. Oa the 10th of March Hardee's men began to pass through Fayetteviilc.

It wad a day of humiliation and prayer. When I left the hospital 1 told them they would have to do without me next day as I wanted to do what I could do towards feeding some ot our nnngry soldiers as we had nothing but bread and meat to give them. My uncle, Dr. Kvle went with me. and we stood in the store door on Ilay street.

We soon at tracted the attention of a soi-iier and told him what we proposed to do. My uncle myself and two servants were kept busy whole day. Three of my neighbors and myself prepared the bread and meat. It he was enough to make anybody heart ache to see the men. One came hTwara he looked like a boy of eighteen or nineteen.

He had a little iroo pot and I said; Child, vou look so tired, why do vou carry that iron pot?" and he answered keep it to cook with." I offered him a twenty dollar Confederate note for it, with which he bought 20 loaves of bread and divided them among his comrades. When night came on I closed the dour with a heavy heart. They were etui coming. About nine clock they sent lor me to come to the hospital, and the horrible scene I witnessed there I shall never for get. The wounded had been-brought in from Longstreet where a portion ol Hardee's men had had an engagement with Sherman men.

1 staid with them until just before daylight and did all that I oould to relieve their wants. Jven tnen I did not hear a single murmur. Such fortitude has no parallel in history. morning 1 had breakfast pre pared for some of them, but on reaching there I found but two patients. Those who were not too ill had been taken away in the ambulances, and the worst cases had been sent to the upper hospital.

Two ladies of the neighborhood were with the sufferers. I had been in the hospital only about half an hour when an officer came up the steps and said: if you have a home and children you had better fly to them, as Sherman is entering the town. finished bindiog up the arm of a soldier, and when I got to the door 1 found the street crowded with men. 1 said to the officer: "Sir, mount your horse and fly" but he replied I will see you safe across the street." He was captured by a Yankee just as we got acrosB the street. 1 made every effort after wards to find out the brave officer name, but was unsuccessful.

I had gone only a little distance when I met one of my servants, who begged me to hurry home, saying they were all frightened to death. up the street towards the Court House I saw a Yankee soldier make a man take off his clothing in the street. When I reached my room at home 1 sank down into a chair and felt that I muit give up. My nurse, fortunately did the best thing for me, placing my little boy in uiy arms. 1 then felt I must be brave.

"God alone can protect you my children lie delivered Daniel out of the lion's den. aud if we will ouly look to Him, He wiil deliver us." In a few moments my cook ran in and said: Oh Miss Annie they have broken into the smoke house and are carrying every thing off. One of the men came up in the porch and: Madam, where is your meat? We want meat." I certainly did feel a little triumph when I replied I gave the meat to Hardee's men yesterday." He rejoined "Hardee's men won't want meat or any thing else after we catch up with them." They entered the kitchen and took our dinner that was cooking with the pans, oven and all, and they searched my kou.se from top to bottom, taking everything they could carry. My uncle soon got me a guard, and I felt greatly relieved. OH, THE HORRORS OF THOSE DAYS It is impossible to write or tell the horrors of those, aud it will never be kpown until we stand before the judgment seat of God.

After the fall ot Harper's Ferry the families and workmen were removed to Fayetteville, in consequence of which quite a number of haidsome dwellings were added to the Arsenal It was a lovely spot and we felt justly proud of it. But Sherman's torch reduced it to ashes. Fayetteville suffered riore than most towns, for we had five cotton factories in town and one at Rockfish, just a tew miles from town and they were ail burned to the ground, leaving hundreds of people without work or any ineatis of gaining bread. And we had been r. bbed of al! we had, and of course could not help them.

Aa soon as night came cn we could see fires in every direc tion, as all the buildings in the country weie burned. I can compare it to nothing except what I imagine Hade? would be were its awful doors thrown open. But for the kindness of my servants I. don't know what would have become of me. They were very' faithful.

One walked up and down the passage all night, and the other staid on the back porch. Still I was afraid to close my eyes. But for my nurse we would not have had a mouthful to eat. She hid some things in' her own room, and in that way saved them. One morning I had a message from the upper hospital askiug me to come.

I went up and found that six men had just died aud been buried in two holes iu the ground just wranned in their blankets. 1 got there in time to close tbe eyes ot the seventh. Soon after Mayor McLean went out and surrendered the town. The Federal officer insisted on putting the soldier tliat it had just died in the grave witn one of the three, but I would not alio it. I went to the Mayor and got a permit for a coffin and a hearse.

Then Mrs. Guion and myself, with two men from the lotlowed his remains to the place where we had been burying the soldiers. -The next day Sherman's army crossed the Cape Fear river, the bridge having Van Winkle for Haetalne, Talbot Comrrr, March, 1881. B. H.
