There were :'.. rs in tin- party who ha?! been with I. and Jackson und Longstreet. What they marveled at most wa- that thirty-odd years after they faced each other ob thc bloodiest fields .<!' the war they came to lina the same build ings, the saine proportion- of farm and forest, thc same roads and stone walls. Perhaps nowhere else in all of thc States which furnished lighting ; g rou ml could there Le found so little chauge as here. It is almost as if thc j Almighty had said to thc shrines of . \morion's greatest sacrifices, "I'eace! Ile Still!" and thereafter the progres sive hand ol' mau had been stayed for a third ol' a century. The engineers and their party rode i . ?ut of Fredcricksburg by what was , the peach orchard over which Hum- , side's lines uf hattie advance 1 to thc impossible attack upon Maryc's Heights in December of ist?. They passed along the sunken road and in fr? nt of thc stone wall ai the foot of the heights, where dead men lay so j thick that December morning ol' IHiiLi , that, as a local historian said it was possible to walk for a quarter of II mile stepping from corpse to corpse. ? From this awe-inspiring sjiot the party took the old Orange plank road and ? went due west over a gently undulating country with wheat in the shock, the corn knee high and the grass ready for . thc mower. Some of the farms have passed to thc possession of others , than those who held them a third of a ' century ago. Hut in many cases thc | buildings and the fields arc as they were. Tour miles out on thc plank road is j Salem church, a plain brick structure, | standing at a convenient crossroads, with a little graveyard behind and no houses immediately near-a place of worship in the woods typical of thc old Virginia custom. Sedgwick, with his corps, came out thc plank road on the ?Uh of May, I8t?. He had cross ed the river near Fredericksburg and had stormed Maryc's Heights success fully, because ' his longer lines were able to wrap themselves around thc flanks of thc smaller forec Lee had left there to cheeky this movement. Sedgwick was on the way by forced mardi to reach Hooker nt Chancellors ville. Having won thc second Frcd cricksburg, where Burnside had failed sb signally thc previous December, he proceeded out thc plank road, but wheu he reached Salem church, a lit tle less thau half of the way to Chan cellorsville, he came upon McLaw's division, posted to stop him. And thcu followed a day of fighting which has gone into history as thc battle of Salem church and which is only dwarfed by thc much heavier losses on the neighboring fields. Thc walls of thc brick church are scarred and perforated with the cannon and mus ket balls. Frank Hume. a Washing ion merchant, who was in the fighting at Fredcricksburg, tells how the wounded were brought into Salem church all night long to be treated by the surgeons. Thc operating tables were near the altar. A window near was oj ion, and as thc shattered limbs were taken off they were tossed out through that window. "On the morning after thc battle," -aid Mr. Hume, "1 saw in front of that window a heap of arms and legs higher than my head." Where those operating tables stood and where that ghastly work went on fill night there is to day a memorial altar, in front of which the farmers worship. It was erected by thc joint contributions of survivors of a South Carolina regiment and a new Jersey regiment which fought each other desperately at the church in I80il. And tho Sunday school of Salem is to-day supported by an annual con tribution of an army post in New Jeraoy. Sedgwick was dolayed by having to take Maryo's Heights. Ue was more severely checked at Salem church, be ing compelled to draw off after the fighting of May 5, aflpi to make his way to the northward toward the Happahannock instead of prooeeding straight along the plank road to thc support of Hooker, only half a dozen miles away. Salem church is left behind for a succession of rolling farms, with fre quent strips of dense timber. The farm houses are set well back from the plank road upon thc elevations commanding thc surrounding fields. Each has its clump of stately trees and its look of simple comfort. Bat the soil is none too fertile. Much of the corn is what a western farmer would call spindling and light in color. And yet thc strips of forest, with the SON FOUGHT. ;its the Sceiio .>! thc; i ( . wi 111 *x** Den iii. . I h nun t n I. dense undergrowth, ic!! ' t !.? ^treiiclli ami richness of ii.- virgin lund.

Midway of one of these strips of forest five miles beyond Salem church the Catharpeii road crosses Orange plank road, not at right angh's, hut bearing to the southwest. Au oak tower- above the lower growth at thc crossing. I nder it Lee and Stonewall Jackson consulted and devised one of the mo.?t noteworthy of strategic movements ou the morning of thc 2d of May, ISO.'!. Hooker's army, ex cepting Sedgwick's corps, was stretch ed in a long line less than two miles away. Hooker himself was making the Chancellor mansion his head quarter-. His divisions were ulong thc plank road and in the woods near it. His left was turned back around the eastern side of thc Chancellor mansion. His right lay westward down the plunk road, covering a dis tance of two n;iles ur more. lt was a magnificent position. A civilian can see its strength to-day. Around the Chancellor house were open fields in which to place the guns and to ar range the supporters. Fringing thc fields was the timber, in which the line ol' battle had been formed in rifle pits to await thc attack. And thc very nature of the respective positions forced Lee to assume thc offensive or to retreat down the Catharpen road to ward Richmond. Numbers as well as position favored Hooker. At I'rcdcr icksburg was Sedgwick getting ready to come up in the rear of thc Confede rate army. On that morning, under the oak still standing, a betting man would have j said that Hooker had by all odds thc best of it. Jackson's proposition was daring. He asked Lee to let him take his command, 22,000 men, about two thirds of thc force present, and march away down the Catharpen road. This road would be called not much more than a path in some parts of the coun try. It is narrow. It winds through the forest so closely bordered that large trees make au arch overhead. The undergrowth is so thick that at a distance of 100 yards passers on the road cannot bc sec.n. Lee consented rather dubiously. Tho 'proposition was better than a retreat, which was about all that could be said of it as a promise of results. Living to-day on thc battlefield is James Talley, a well preserved, substantial old farmer, who was sent for by Lee, and assigned to guido Jackson. Mr. Talley tells how the 22,000 men were put in motion immediately down thc Catharpen road. He led the way by a course rapidly di verging from Hooker's front. At thc start Hooker was only two miles or less away. Hut Jackson's column widened the distance until three or four miles separated it from the 1'nion front. From time to time oommands were sent out int" the wooes between the marching column and the front of Hooker to do some shooting and a good deal of shouting, with thc idea of making the Federals believe an attack was coming from that direction. Thc Catharpeii road was followed to the fork, where the Furnace road bears off to the west ward. Tally conducted Jackson into thc Furnace road. Thence the route was almost parallel to Hooker's front, but three miles or so to thc south. It led past thc (dd furnace. Talley came to a cross road, a narrow neighborhood lane connecting thc Furnace road with thc Orange plank road. It had been tuc purpose to turn up this road and to form at that point thc lines for attack upon the front of Hooker's right, which was along the plank road. But Talley says that just before the advance, which he was guiding, reach ed this cross road, an old negro came running to meet them and told them thc Yankees were cooking supper and could bc seen from a hill on thc cross road. Calling Tally to go with them, Jackson and Fitzhugh Lee galloped up thc cross road to the hill. There, looking across the intervening woods a mile or more, they saw the men of Howard's Eleventh corps, with arms stacked in the open fields along the plank road, their camp fires smoking. Jackson grasped the situation at a glance. He saw that his intentions were wholly unknown to the Federal commanders. He saw that there was opportunity to make the surprise even more complete than he had expected. Turning to Lee he told him to go back to prevent the column from turning into the cross road and to keep it moving right on westward by the Fur nace road. Jackson followed, and his army went right on beyond thc un conscious I nion troop- two miles to thc right. Thc westward course was continued until it brought thc van. with Talley guiding, to thc Brock roads, leading northward to the < ?range toad. I'|> the Brock road .Jackson turned hi- column at quickening step. About where Howard'.- corp.- was cooking meal and collet- and getting ready lor i peaceful night, thc Orange road fork- into thc Orange pike and thc Orange plank road. The plank road is south. After diverging for' some distance the plank road runs nearly parallel with the pike, with a distance of a mile or so between. As his column moved along across these two roads it executed a movement which brought it into position for action almost without baiting. Battle lines were formed facing east. From marching northward in a column, the divisions, as fast as they reached the pike and lapped over, faced to the right and presented a battle front. Tally says there were, three lines, thc front in heavy skirmishing order* the other- solid and heavy. There was hardly a check in thc movement. As thc lines of battle were formed the men shed knapsacks in long rows and went forward. A hiil and several strips of forest made up thc mile which separated Jackson in battle formation from Howard's corps. Thc time was ? o'clock in the aftcrnoou. The sun was casting long shadow.- as Jackson's lines went forward. Most of Howard's men never got into posi tion to face thc onset. They were caught upon the side and in thc rear. Regiment after regiment, brigade after brigade was rolled up into the strug gling mass as Jackson came on, and was shoved along eastward. The Orange road is of generous width. It was soon filled from side to side with thc panic-stricken. Thc great roaring mass moved down thc road toward the Chancellor mansion, threatening to break thc Twelfth corps into thc same confusion. Hooker saw thc mass of fugitives coming, and with bis staff faced and charged it. Heroism of officers gradually drew au organi/.atian here and another there out of the wreck. Lines were hurriedly formed across thc road and in the fields and woods facing Jackson. When thc Confederates struck the right of Howatd in thc beginning, Talley says, there was no resistance. But the progress of Jackson's linos grew slower and slower. The Confederates were themselves thrown into confusion by the woods and by thc varying degrees of resistance encountered at different parts of thc lines. I >arkness came on. Whether it was smoke or clouds, the men who were there agree that the night was inky. Subordinate officers appeared to Jackson and urged a halt until morning, telling how exhausted their men were and how impossible it was to maintain their organization in the confusion which had developed. The word was given and Jackson's men lay down to eat the supper Howard's men had left behind and to j wait for morning. Books have been written in thc con troversial efforts to explain the sur prise and to locate thc responsibility for it. Tally lives on the road. His fields are where Howard's men were taking things easy. Thc Union sol diers had slaughtered cattle in thc morning, and were cooking the meat for supper. As thc Confederates came up they speared gres? hunks of meat with their bayonets and carried them along in the charge. Thc house in which Talley now lives was the headquarters of Hevens. Across the road from Talley's is the Hawkins house, where General Carl Schurz had his headquarters. Hawkins was at home that day by no will of his own. He had been made a prisoner by Gen eral Schurz. He heard the 'specula tions of thc Federal officers as the day wore on. Thc officers had learned that the Confederates were marching down thc Catharpen road, and they interpreted it exactly as Jackson and Lee intended. They wero sure it incant retreat. And so they remained in ignorance of the Confederate plan. It wasn't until half an hour before Jackson's lines came charging over thc fields that there was the slightest impression of impending danger, and then it was too late to make any gen i eral formation of opposing lines. As the Union troops retired in disorder and Jackson's lines came up Hawkins says found himself in thc presenco of his ova regiment. He was a Confed erate, and had come homo on a fur lough. His company charged through his own door-yard, and he fell in. Perhaps in thc whole history of the war there was no such night as fol lowed. Hooker and his subordinate generals worked at the reconstruction of the lines to be ready for the fight ing which everybody knew must come at dawn. Bodies of troops were moved in thc darkness and through the woods. Hooker had to complete a new front, faoing Jackson, as well as main tain his old front faoing Lee. Regi ments moving to take their places on countered other' regiments of their own side, and fired volleys into them before the mistake was discovered. The same was true on thc Confederate side. Scores of soldiers fell that night from millets fired by their com rades. < Great as was thc successs of his. movement against the right flank, .Jackson did not rest with thc fruits of one piece of strategy. Scarcely had his men lain down by their arms to wait for daylight when Jackson began to plan another surprise. He formed a column of half a do/en regi ments of cavalry and infantry in thc rear of his line of battle and sent them away wi.h Talley as their guide. They were to go back some distance and make a detour to thc north, with the purpose of reaching and rc-inforcing Stuart, who was moving to g? t a small force between Hooker and thc fords of the Happahannock. The additional regiments which Talley was leading were to give Stuart the strength to seize and hold the fords and thus cut off Hooker's communication with Washington. This done, Jackson be lieved tliat the destruction of thc Union anny was assumed. But while Talley led the re-enforce ments away in the darkness Jackson rode forward to the front and to death. "If I had been with him," said Talley, ''what followed would not have happened. I do not think he realized what he was doing. I knew every foot of the way, and could have kept him out of danger. Jackson rode for ward to lay hi.i plans for the morning. I believe he was looking for a road which led off from the plank road to the northward through the woods in the direction of thc United States ford. My idea is that he meant to throw part of his line further over to thc north of the Orange road, so as to bo on Hooker's rear, as well as his flank, in the morning, and thus to co operate with Stuart in cuttiug off re treat. This road leading through thc woods was just where our advance line had rested at the close of the fighting. Jackson had given strict or ders to fire on any one seen approach i og from the Federal side. He rodt forward by the plank road and turnee into thc woods, v' ere this road to th< ford branched off. It was very dark I don't believe Jackson knew that hi had passed his own outposts. He hat gone along this branch road only ? hundred yards or so when some soldie down the Confederate line fired. Thei there was another shot, and another as I heard the story from one of th couriers who was with. Jackson. Th firing came along the line until oppo site where Jackson and his party were and then it became a volley directe toward them. Nearly every horse wa killed. Several of the party wer shot. Jackson was hit io both armt His horse plunged away from the Con federate line toward the Federals, bu thc general was just able to turn hil back and to*go a few yards, when h foll. His men crawled out and foun him in front of their position." The Union troops replied to the fii with which the Confederates had she Jackson. An officer lay down besid thc beloved general to shield him wit his body while waiting for tho streiche and was shot. A stretcher bearer wi struck as thc general was being carrie to the rear, and the stretcher fel giving Jackson a severe shook. Tl simple but massive monument of grai itc says, "On this spot fell mortal wounded Thomas J. Jackson." Tl ex-Confederates who were with Jae sou say that the exposure and wea ness, aggravated by the moving of tl wounded man from place to plao brought on pneumonia, which result fatally several days after the woun were received. The words which L uttered standing beside Jackson a engraved on one face of the monumcn "Could I have direoted events, should have chosen, for thc good the country, to have been disabled your stead. I congratulate you up \hc victory which is due to your sk and energy." Another inscription are the lt words pf Jackson : "Let us pass over the river and rt under the shade of thc trees." The granite monument, surround by a high iron fence, stands wh< Jackson lay awaiting the stretcl after his soldiers found him. Foi feet in front of it is a massive bould planted to show where Jackson f from his horse. The general v about 100 yards further in tho wot when the volley from his own men most annihilated his little party, the base of Jackson's monument re a large wreath, placed there on the cent Decoration day by Pennsyl nians, who came with Collis to de cate a stone near hy to the memory thirty-eight members of the ll Pennsylvania, Collis' Zouaves, v fell there. Jackson's strategy ended with fall. Talley led the reinforceme to Stuart, but they were not emplo; in the movement intended. Ste was obliged to give up his demons! tion against the fords and to t Jaekson'8 command. The fight seemed continuous on some parti the field all night, but whoo mt ing carno it became desperate all al tho lines. Thc 2d of May was day of strategy at Chancollorsvi Tho 3d of May was the day of the 1 tte. Hooker saved his anny* tried to follow tap thc advantage the day before, but the resistance was too much for him. Gradually the I nion army fell back from Chancel lorsville. Sedgcwick's forced march to the relief of Hooker was foiled by the battle at Salem Church on the 5th. Retiring slowly. Hooker recrossed the Rappahannock. The second start for Richmond by this route had failed. For twelve months Confederate wagons were engaged in hauling oil the field of Chancellorsville the war material which Hooker left behind. To Chancellorsville attaches the iuinr.'.-sion of a town, or at least a village. Chancellorsville was a mag itifieeot estate before the war. It had a great mansion, where fifty people could be accommodated, with out buildings and quarters, far-spreading fields, and mineral springs once of considerable note. To-day a half of the great mansion stauds, au imposing structure on its elevation. Studded in the massive walls arc cannon balls and jagged pieces of shells. The barn has disappeared. Thc outbuildings are reduced in number.. The cultiva tion of the fields is only partial. For miles through the woods can be fol lowed the earthworks which thc men of Hooker and of Lee builded while they faced each other. Chancellors ville and the fields and woods sur rounding form one link in thc chain of battlefields from Fredericksburg to Spottsylvania which the government is to acquire and to preserve.
