Several veterans of the lute war met in Kingston, recently, and related experience: One of the number said: first time was under fiie, was at the battle of Freder ieksburg. I was a boy fresh from school, was 11 sudden change from my home life. At the battle of Fredericksburg we had listened the greater part of the day to the cannonad ing and the terrific crashes of musketry from a safe place where even the shells did not reach us; but laic in the afternoon we were hurried across a river and marched close up to the battle line.

There was a lull. It was anticipated that the battle would be renewed at any mo ment. Now and then a shell whizzed over our heads, causing us to hug the ground While lying there I saw an orderly hurry up and deliver an order to seud from our Regiment a detail of 10 men to go out in advance of the skirmish line, as a sort of picket, as an extra precaution to prevent surprise in case of a movement on the part of the enemy, thought to myself I hope not be put on that The Sergeant came down the line and pronounced my name. My hair stood on end. I breathed i wardly, wish I was do to show the white feather; had too much pride for that, so 1 joiued the others.

We crawled slowly along until we came to a ditch, such as are often found in Virginia. We dropped in and worked up toward the skirmish line. As I was feeling my way I put my hand on something that was eoid and clammy. I wondered what was. Upon closer inspection 1 found that had my hands on the face of a dead man.

shuddered. I got over that corpse somehow and a little further on, I stumbled and fell and there were three dead bodies under me one lying on top of the other. By the time we had reached a point opposite the place of our destination, 1 felt that it would be relief to get out of that ditch, even though were directly in the face of a shower of bul lets. Anything was preferable to that re ceptacle of dead men. After rising from the ditch, we crawled out past the skirmish line UDtil we got so close to the Confederate lines we could hear the men talking to each other, i There we lay stretched out close to the ground all Now and then a bullet whizzed by, hut none of our party were killed.

In the night a big gun was fired back of the Confederate lines, and shells went screaming above us, striking among the troops near the river. We were ordered to return just before daylight. When we came to the regiment it was with a wonderful feeling of satisfaction that I was so far from the enemy. was a veteran after that.
