enjoyed his recital of certain incident
in connection with the Rreat strupfrle. r:
His memory If remarkably clear as n
to names, dates and pieces and he
Is very accurate in his statements.
We were particularly interested in
hearing him tell of SharpshurR,
where his commander, the Rallant (l
Col. Dixon Barnes,, was mortally
wounded, which happened In "Miller's
cornfield," west of the Haters- n
town road. D
Mr. Rives participated in many of ^
the bloodiest battles of the war, not- :
ably Sharpsbure. ChancellorsvUle i
Chlcknmauga and Gettysburg. Cap- v,
tain Rives tells of a certain private R,
in hla company, who in one of the ^
battles, stood near a tree which was
struck by a shell. The bark flew In n|
all directions, hitting the private and
causing him such pain that he cried
aloud. Captain Rives, then a lieutenant,
rushed up to inquire where
he was shot. "I am shot all over,
lieutenant." was the soldier's reply. ^

[r. \V. S. Langlcy an?l Jailor A. T.
C'arnes Painfully Injured.
As Messrs. W. S. Langley, W.
. Mackey and Jailer A. T. Oarnes
ere returning from Columbia Tuesay
afternoon in Mr. Langley's Ford
>uring car, at a turn in the road,
le car, which was driven by Mr.
angley, turned turtle on the road
bout fifteen miles this side of the
apltal City. Both Mr. Langley and
ir. Carnes were caught under the
tachlne, sustaining very painful iniries.
Mr. Mackey escaped unhurt
nd pulled the other two men from,
nder the car. Messrs. Langley and
arnes were taken back to Columbia
y Mr. J. B. Roddey of that place,
ho came by in his automobile about
le time of the accident. They were
iken at once to the Columbia hosItal,
where they were given every
ttention. The extent of Mr. Lang?y's
injuries has not yet been deterLined.
He is fearfully bruised
bout the face and body but no bones
re broken. If there are no latent
iternal injuries it is hoped that Mr
angley will likely be up and about
1 a short while. Mrs. Langley went
own to Columbia Wednesday and is
ow at the bedside of her husband,
heriff Hunter also went to Columbia
Wednesday and brought Mr. Carnes
ack with him. Mr. Carnes is suf?ring
from bruises on the left side

joint were fractured, but it is
oped that his injuries, though painjl,
will not prove to be serious. The
ir was badly damaged, one wheel
rushed and the top torn up.
