FlUIITINO KOlt THE Rr(iHT.
A Rescne in the Wnr Times. ~
"New-Tand Courier?!" (
J*btkhsbitu?, Va.. September 25.?I
have just mid in your Weekly issue of
tlie S)th of the perilous voyage of Henry
Smalls from Charleston to Hull's Hay
iluring the recent cyclone in your city. ]
This incident vividly calls to mind a s
similar perilous voyage of three white 1
rner, which occurred in April, 1861, '
while Col. Jenkins's 5th S. C. regiment ,
was stntioned on Sullivan's Island. I <
do not remember the date, but it was >
Sundaj' evening, and just after a shower 1
of rain and n gus? of wind, that in the ,
distance and direction of Fort Sumter <
was discovered a capsized boat gradual- 1
ly drifting to sea. A startling sensa- !
tion was now produced by some parties '
who wero uatoh'iigthe boat saynu^JJ^rTl
n man was clinging to it, others
thai there were iijurc "than one, and I
think iJ^niS uol. Jenkins who, with his
SiiViTglass raised to his eyes, asserted
that there were three iren clinging to
the wreck. All was now excitement,
and how to rescue them was the anxious
inquiry of every one. The distance between
these unfortunate men and ihe
laud was widening as fast as tide would
carry them. Night was coming on, and
what was to be done had to be done
quickly. I don't think that tlure was a
sailor to '.h it entire regiment of over
.mo thousand mon, at least none oftl-red
his services as such, for the perilous undertaking.
IYm ilons because, m us, the
sea was running high and the only availboats
or boats oil that side of the Island
were leaky or otherwise in bad condition.
Th." best one, however, was selected
and hailed out and. Corp'l Kd
Dean, of the Spartan Iliiles offered tube"
one of three to attempt the rescue. So
it was only a moment before two more
brave men ol thu same company wore in
the bout for the noble purposeof trying
to save the unfortunate victims of ihu
capsized bout,which by this time was
well nigh out of sight; but soon the
gul'ianl rescuers were well under way
and it was apparent to every on that
thoy were fast gaining on the ill-fated
tnc-n. Twilight was now coming on and
our comrades were lost to sight and for
a while the state of uncertainty and terrible
suspense was deeply pictured on
every countenance, a death stillness pervaded
every breast. At last they were
aeon returning, and as they ncared the
shore they shouted to us that all were
saved. Then went up-a shoot of joyful
gladness, both for the safe return of our
own men and the gallant rescue of the
three men who had despaired of all
hop.* and of rvor peeing homo jnd loved
oik ?s again. These men were eitizeus
of Cha: ^ston and were that evening enjoying
a sail, and when near Cistle
P'iuckney w.*re capsized rby the sudden

Should any survivor of the old 5th see

estimable and reliable young man, tcsli- t

He liveR near Antioch Church, some eight

W. K. rrescBtt, Win. I'arknian, Memphis ,
Cnlbreath, Lou Present I, Ned Itussev, one- (
ej-ed Wilson and Collier Hammond were
among the number. Three of those were
partially disguised, but the others were not
masked. A short while thereafter he went
into a i>iitc thicket nenr bv and there saw
Luther hell and I). A. J. Boil, Jr., who in- \
quired if a crowd of men had passed. Minis told \
them that he had seen a certain crowd of men,
giving the names of some of them. Bell said, '
"That's our crowd, and we are going to take j
him from the sheriff and see if we cannot '
find out something about the murder." Minis
said that Hell did not snv who they were go- '
ing to take from the sheriff.
The Mr. Talbert mentioned by Mints io Sentor
Talbert, and in justice to him it is but
fair to state that Mr. Tnlbert, who was in tho
village to-day, says that Mr. Minis was en
tircly mistaken as to himself, that he was at
home that evening siek in bed and hnd Dr. !

attended by increased crowds of anxious 1
spectators day by day. Mr. <). O.tllarr, who <
lives about nix nules tYom tho village on the '
road lending to Antioch Church and the Culbr*-aSh
section, testified that a crowd of 1
mounted men assembled ih his woods pasture '
Iving on the road, on Monday evening. Later
in the evening he went to hi? pasture to drive '
home his cattle, his negroes refusing to go
on account of the crowds of men they knew i
to tie there, and he came up with Wyatt h.
Ilo'.nies, Guprge Vaneo and Steve Hammond,
whilst thev were driuking water at the |
branch. Holmes told him there lind been |
two hundred men along in the woods and that
this crowd was a demonstration o:; the Hammond
side. Ilarr Pays he started to go in
the direction of the crowd wlion 11..lines
advised him not go any further and ho returned
