He was born In Lezington, S. 0., Oc: feobsr 1, 1814. In 1830 he was conducting z mercantile business in McMinn and Bradley counties, east Tennessee, on the Hiwasaee river, some 40 miles above Chattanooga, Tenn., when the 'poor Los,' or Cherokees, were compelled by Uncle Sam to take np their sad and enforced march to the then wilderness in the far West. In 1848 he was married to a Cherokee lady by blood, the widow of Dr. Robert T. Hanks, who was margaret Ann Ward Morgan, a daughter of Col. Gideon Morgan, who commanded the Chero- | kees in the battle of the 'Horse 3hoef onder Gen. Andrew Jaokson and a j cousin to the late Senator John T. \ Morgan o? Alabama. 4'Mr. Eifert went to California dnr- | ing the gold fever, hut failed to cap- | fcure any part of Dame Fortune's estate and returned to hie farm and j milling interests in Tennessee, where j he remained until the tocsin of war ! sounded and the first gnn echoed from Fort Snsnter. Shonldering his old moskefi, he joined the second company raised in his town, under command of his son-in-law, Oapt. Wellington W. McClelland, and wae in the Twentyninth Tennessee regiment under Gen. f7/\l ?iUUZUUjUC?j ULUD ACMU.1JJC, |j early in the struggle. Afterwards he ] , followed .the, fortunes of war tinder Gen. Kirby Smith and later on was ] transferred to the quartermaster's department at Kno3vi]iev Tens,, where he remaned an active and efficient aid throughout all the thrilling and event ful years of the war. "He was within reach.of stray bed-" lets daring several bloody battles, bat fortunately escayed injury. He was \ under fere all day in the famous battle I of Lookout Mountain,1 having hern * sent down the hill for supplies early - In the morning, and the engagement was on before he get back. Of this, rta one of hi3 reminiscent talks, he ! I had free ticket to see. And :;when the curtain fell and audience and actors were to go, I did not stand f on the order of my going, bat went i and have never cared to visit Lookout9ince, not even at a reunion.7 "Mr. Eirfert is one hundred y-ars .and five months old and is abie to read the newspapers and ireeps posted on the European war.
