On the 23‘h Inst the Ellentsn Agrl- eitlttirsl Club gave s* they annually »U» s dinner to all Confederate Veteran* who will attend. On this occasion Mr. Wyatte L’csery read a note from Msj.

Jnat be fore the Seven Data tight they were can led to Richmond. With the ex ception of being under some heavy shell firing once before this fight at Gaines Mill was the first baptism of fire the command was ever In. At thl* place the company Mr. Bush was In w A*/<>rtn«d In skirmish life mud was advancing on the enemy, but before the Confederates had been allowed to tl'e a shot by the officers, Mr. Bush wa* abot with a nilide ball just below the left eye, which destroyed that or gan and came out i oat back of hi* right ear. Mr. Btiyb »*ol h* consclm a the grea'^r part of the time after he wa* wounded. M r. I) W. Bush, who was near Mr. L A. Bush whew ahot, said the latter did not fall aa soon a* shot but staggered for ten or twelve yard* beforo lie -foil. The skLtnlsh line moved on but private Jack Haath lingered with Mr Bush fora few mo ments and Mad a talk with the woun ded man. who told Heath,when he got Iselne to go and sec bis ( Bu»!i’a) mother and tell her he died fighting for hi* country, and that all was well with his soul as lie felt Isa would be saved. Mr. Heath promised if bellied to get borne he would be certain to do a* Mr. Bush requested, be then liurrled-so join hla command Heath wa* killed in this tight while ll r. Bush wa* spared to many years of usefulness. Mr. Bush said further that he wasput In ah am bulance and carried to Rlchmono, flight miles, over oiid of the worst roads possible, being cut tip bv army wagon* Ac., said on this trip he suffered great agony from hls wound. When he reached Richmond he was aent across the Jame* river to Manchester where he Wa* put In an old tobacco ware house that wa* used as a hospital. A big negro wa* waiting, or pretending to wait, on the wounded In the section Wi which he was placed, bnt was loo lar.y and impudent to do his duty.

After this Mr. Bush got all the water he wanted. Capt. W. D. Bush, a brother of Mr. L. A. Hush, visited him In a few day* and bad him removed to the home of a Mrs. Verel, where he was nursed Into convalescence by Mra. Verel with the assistance of her family and friends Capt. Bush brought ohl “Mike,” a faithful old negro who had been cook ing for the hrothars ever since they hud been In the army, to help aurse Mr. Bush and well did be do hi* part. Mr. Bush paid a great compliment to M4ke In addition to being faithful to hls young masters, tbst he was, per fectly fearless. At the battle of Chsn- cellorsville Mike kept near the com pany Capt. Bush was in, so If he was wounded he could take hia master to the rear. He would prepare something for the captain to eat and carry It to him while the baiflo was raging. The battle lasted two day*. IVliilo 1 wa* a student at the South Carolina Medical College In Charleston In 1974 I’rof. Middleton Michel In lec tilling to the students on wounds of the head, described a terrible wound a hoy soldier received in the head, put ting out one eye aud passing through the skull, jr'lng out back of the ear ami considered it almost a miracle that the soldier lived. Dr Michel wa* a Confederate surgeon and had atten ded the case described In a hospital at Manchester, Va. Two years after that Dr Michel yLlted Barnwell countv with Dr. Morrull and the writer, to see an umisual esse of great Interest to the medh-al profession on Mr. Joseph Ashley’s place. On that visit he hap pened to meet Mr L. A. Bush As a tiirgeon he wa* quickly attracted by the wound Mr. Bush boro. An exami nation and questioning soon revealed the fact that Mr. Bush was the patient Dr. Michel had attended year* before and described to HI* class of students afterward* as almost miraculous. While Mr Bu»h was on his death bed the writer told him to hurry and get well as he had some new histories of the Civil War for him to re^ Al though he was very III just to mention the mibj ct of the cause hi loved To well made the fire* of patriotism spar kle in the one eye that had 6ejn spared him. It is needless for me to say anything of L. A. Hush a* a Chilstian gentle man as lie exemplified these trails to the greatest perfection. Onr section is sorely be r enved over the death of Mr L A. Bush, a* well as over the death of hTk brother Capt. Jus. II. Hush, who died only a month and ten days before Mr. L. A. Bush did. They were soldiers both.
