FRIDAY, JULY 2, 1920
weather report
For S. C. Showers probably tonight
and Saturday. Moderate winds
southwest.
If all the various remedies suggested
to improve the ills of the body politic
were all applied the patient would,
die.
\
There will be many coming and going
on the Fourth. This means that it
will be well to drive carefully. Reckless
driving on such days often'leads
to shocking accidents.
"Subscribers to the capital stock of
the Business Woman's Club have been
notified to meet at 6:30 o'clock p. m.
, today in the rooms of the Union
Chamber bf Commerce. It is proposed
to organize the concern at this meeting.
It is not yet too late for the farmers
to put in a few extra acres of
corn. Unless all signs fail, com is
going to be a valuable thing to have,
and the farmer caught without com is
going to have a hard time supplying
his needs.
Union has s^nt several sick babies
to the Baby Camp at Saluda where
they received treatment free. The
$*21 that we ha^e collected and are today
forwarding t0 the proper authorities
is about enough to pay for
one baby one week. If you wish to
contribute to'this fund, hand the contribution
in today-or tomorrow. There
will be no canvassing.
Our cat says watch the motives of
the man with a hammer.
SAVE OUR BABIES
The fund has amounted to $21.00
and stopped right there. Not a penny
came in today for the sick babies. Too
bad!
The Times will continue the campaign
until Saturday when the last
call will be made; if you do not feel
any interest, it must be that you have
never seen a little sick baby. The
poor little fellows must have a chance
won't you help give it to them ? They
cannot help themselves and it is up
to us. Two more days and we will
not trouble you again for our fund
to help make baby well.
WHO WAS STUART? 4
The Piedmont feels it both a pleas- I
ure and duty to publish the follow- I
ins: letter:
To the Editor of The Piedmont, '
Dear Sir: The Literary Digest
this week carries an article concerning
prominent characters in our nation's
life whose names have been
proposed for places in the Hall of
Fame. This article is taken from
the New York Times, which paper in j
devoting a few lines relative to each
of the characters says of Gen. J. E.
B. Stuart, whose name is mentioned:
"J. E. B. Stuart, General in
Confederate Army, commanded a
body of Confederate Cavalry and
was mortally wounded at Yellow
Tavern May, 1864." So! Now
wouldn't it be wise for this member
of the Times' staff who is telling the
people of the nation "Who's Who,"
relative to the names proposed for "
the Hall of Fame, to read a little '
history himself in order that he
might be better fitted for sitting at
the feet of some well-bred school
child who has been reared in an
American rather than a Partisan
home, and in this manner himself
learn who's who?
James Ewell Brown Stuart, com- ,
mander of the Marines, who captured
old John Brown at Harper's *
Ferry; Brig. Gen., Major Gen.,
Lieut. Gen., in command of all the
cavalry of the Confederacy and one
oi the best known characters in all
history, is thus dismissed with a
couple of lines by this ignoramus on
the staff of the Times. No mention
is made of the wonderfully dashing,
brilliant ride around McClellan's
Army with a loss of but one man,
nor is anything said of the time
when tys repeated this performance,
nor when a year later, he raided as
far as Chanibersburg, Pa., and
covered 160 miles in 24 hours without
the loss of a single man and the
wounding of but two and yet bringing
back with him hundreds of
beeves and thousands of horses for
the Confederate States artillery and
cavalry.
Handsome, laughing, fighting,
"Jeb" Stuart! How our minds like
to draw the picture of this cavalier,
of this modern Rupert, as, in his
little fighting jacket he rides at the
head of his' dashing, fearless- squadrons,
spreading dismay on all sides
from the very magic of his name.
Equally at home, with cavalry, infantry
or artillery we find him. Now
dashing into Pope's headquarters
and bringing back his coat, hat and
even confidential correspondence
with Washington, now sending word
to General Jackson that he would
go ahead "crowding 'em with artillery."
or at the head of this fallen
general's battallions at Chambersvile
he charged triple lines of
breastworks, his golden voice ringing
above the cannon's roar as he
sang "Old Joe Hooker, won't you
come out of the Wilderness"?
A peerless leader, brave cavalryman
and one in whose hands, even
with half as many numbers, his enemies
would have been but as toys,
had Providence seen fit; beloved by
men, women and children, a modprn.Hnv
lfntirhL fr#?ntlo sk h child
""fn->-? o ?? "
and as bravo as. a lion was this
Cavallfer of the'Swouth tflkb'. flied without
fear and without reproach as he
led, that fateful day at Yellow
Tavern, "a body of Conferedate
Cavalry."
Yours very truly,
W. Lindsay Wilson.
Greenville.
Thus briefly but justly and eloquently
Mr. Wilson portrays one of
the great cavalry leaders of all times
?"Stuart is the best cavalry officer
ever foaled in North America!" was
the rude appraisement of his old
commander arlfd later opponent on
the Union side, General Sedgwick.
Both Lee and Jackson held him in
the highest esteem and had supreme
confidence in his ability. Most
jovial of cavaliers, his character was
such that General Lee said of him, in
announcing his death to the army,
"To military capacity of high order
and to the nobler virtues of the soldier
he added the brighter graces of
a pure life, guided and sustained by
the Christian's faith and hope." Although
he had attained the rank of
lieutenant-general and by the genius
oi nis -leaciersnip nau nnKca nis name
with those of Lee and Jackson, Stuart
was just thirty-one years old when
he died.
Even in the South, however,
Stuart's admirable life and brilliant
career are too little known. Scores
of Southern editors and numberless
Southern school pupils and college
students are hardly better informed
as to him than the Times scribe.
Every young Southerner in the
course of his education ought to be
directed to read "Mohun," John
Esten Cooke's famous historical
novel, with its inspiring picture of
this immortal cavalier.?Piedmont.
