GEORGE B. M'CASLAN.
*
Tribute From ik FrlMicl-Xole* of .
M. Kennedy.
I see by tliis week's issue of your paper
short notice of the death of ray Iried and con
rade George B. McCaslun. You state "he die
at. the home of his brother-in-law. Mr. A. 1
Kennedy, who was a gallant soldier in tl
l'Jth Regiment and fought the battles of h
country with valor and heroism."
The compliment paid Mr. Kennedy was <1
served. My deceased friend, too, was a ga
lant soldier. The record shows that he wi
among the first to answer to the call of h
country. He enlisted at the age of twent;
one Id Bradley's Company C. 7th Regimen
and was mustered into service by Major E'
ans on May 14th, 18B1, and was wounded o
Maryland Heights, 13th September, lSttJ. Tt
capture of these Heights made Harper's Fe
ry an easy prey to General Jackson with i
eleven thousand prisoners and seventy-tw
cannon two days later.
Speaking of this capture recalls two inc
dents which made a lasting impression upo
me, which may be mentioned here. One wa
on that day Gen. Butler lost his deep-seate
brass bound saddle and the circumstanc*
connected therewith. The other was a coi
vernation had with J. M. Kennedy, the day <
the surrender. Jim was also a member <
Bradley's company, and was a younger brotl
er of A. B. Kennedy, and Is recorded as bein
mustered into service by Maj. Evans on tb
l Jin oi April. looi, at Aooeviue court, tioust
at the age of seventeen. Jim was the bab;
boy of the company.
The surrender of Harper's Kerry took plac
early Sabbath morning, 15th of September
1862, after which, for a few hours the Con fed
erate soldiers, tired and hungry, seemed U
roam at will. Jim Kennedy asked metogi
with him and'he would show me a Yankee h<
had wounded in the tight, I went with bin
to the hospital, where he stood over a wound
ed Federal soldier and said ;
"There lies a man I shot."
The wounded man looked up at him and re
plied: "Yes. you 6hot me, but it was alter
surrendered.-'
With an earnestness and sternness far be
yond hisage, Jiru .said, *'1 didn't go into thi
war to take prisoners."
Although it occurred nearly thirty-threi
years ago, this incident is as indelibly im
nressed ou my memory as ttie battle and cap
tureof Harper's Ferry Itself.
Two days later, twelve miles up the river
the great battle of Sharpsburg was lought
and J. M. Kennedy was killed.
J believe the cause lor which he fought an<
died was as dear to him as lite itself, aud tha
he laid himself a willing sacritice upon thi
alter ot his country. .1. A. 1).
Tlie Jubilee.
The Business Men's Jubilee and Trade Car
nival is now well under way. Rehearsals an
being had aud everything promises for a com
plete success.
The style of entertainment is novel aijf
unique. It has been tried in many placei
and without exception has always provei
eminently satisfactory not only as a good me
dium of advertisement but as furnishing ?
thoroughly enjoyable performance.
The ladies in charge are hard at work will
energy and enthusiasm, and the host of fall
(Inmuttk tvhn in ?iftir<* nru ?a ulrwr flic
praises of their respective establishments, an
vieing with each other in the attractiveness
of their costumes and in their picturesqut
grouping and display.
The play is copyrighted and we know little
of the detail, it being kepi si secret ; but the
public is assured thai the whole affair will be
up to the standard of reputation which this
unique entertainment has attained elsewhere.
The time is fixed for Thursday night, the
_'5th, and it is hoped that the tireless work ol
the brigade ol young ladies will bring out the
larger and enthusiastic audience which they
deserve.
The advertisers :iro again reminded that
they are expected to furnish their own banners,
aud as before stated, it is hoped they
will be attractive and artistic in design.
This being achurcli entertainment, the foreman
of the grand jury and the county oflieials
have kindly consented that the Court
House be used.
Tickets now on sale at the drug stores and
at Aug. W. Smith's. Admission .T> cents.
Children 25 cents. No reserve seats.
i.et all coine out and have an evening ol
fun and frolie.
Old Papers.
We are indebted to the kindness of Mr.
Jlarry Cannon for copies of some old papers,
which we hope to review at some future time.
Mr. Kenny Milford showed us a copy of the
Charleston Courier of 1857, in which mentiou
Is made o<" ti e fact that Col. J. Foster Marshall
had ^l?-.ced a suitable monument over
the hero ol Mexico, F. \V. Selleck.
If you wish a fine dress or hat go to Haddons.
