Sherman Was
by Foragers,
Ingenuity was the characteristic
that made Private Ed (irim the handy
man of his company, that helped him
to be always comfortable, often well
fed and got him into more scrapes
than any other private in Company K,
of the 6ne Hundred and Fifth, Ohio.
That is saying a good deal, for Com
pany K was the best band of foragers
in Sherman's army, and of all that
command they were fattest, sauciest
and most full of fight during the march
to the rea. Ed was ragged and usual
ly had enough for a good meal between
marches, but despite his tatters ho
•ighed after luxuries which for the
most part were unattainable to private
soldiers. It was this craving for some
thing ta-sti - that made him go out with
two comrades on a secret foraging ex
pedition one afternoon in Tennessee
just as the army were going to en
camp by a little creek. Sherman’s
headquarters were pitched on a little
meadow by the river hank, on a beauti
ful green sward, when the three pri
vates went up the creek to find some
thing good to eat. They did not go far
until a small pond was found, a sheet
of water which looked as though it
might be full of fish. It was artificial
ly backed up for a mill dam by an em
bankment of woodwork kept in posi
tion by big logs. The three were in
search of lish, and having cast their
impoverished lines waited patiently for
something to bite. Hut the fish were
•ly and had evidently no intention of
becoming part of a hungry soldier’s
■upper, (irim was in despair and his
comrades swore as it is the immemor
ial right of every private the world
over to do on the least provocation.
Then, like a spark of genius, (irim
a glorious idea, he thought, that
would not only con tribute lish to the
supper of himself and his comrades,
but supply something toothsome for
all the sighing members of Company
K. He confided his plans to his two
friends, and all three set out to gather
brushwood. This they piled against
the wooden dam, and when enough
had been gathered the fagots were
lighted, and the three schemers sat
down on the hank, lit their pipes and
awaited results.
Their plan was to burn down the
dam, let the water rM-ape, and catch
all the fish they could carry, as the
rushing water left them high a»d dry
in the lake bed, and that plan was
carried out to the h-tter. When the
big wooden supports w ere well eaten

into South Carolina, he bagged through
the swamps of the low country and
bore his rider gallantly in the fight at

in South Carolina. From that point,
accompanying I’igue’.s command, un- I
der (Jen. Wheeler he brought his 1
master, Lieut. McMahon, of East Ten
nessee, on the left Hank of the invad
ing army, to Aiken.
When Sherman's army, prssing ;
through Barnwell county, reached the
line of the South Carolina railway,
(Jen. Kilpatrick,with his cavalry, made
a bold dash westward for the purpose
of destroying the cotton mills at (iran-
iteville, five miles w\-d of Aiken, and
possibly the confederate powder mills
in Augusta. <!a., thirteen miles further

and, with a wild plunge, the waters of
the pond carried the dam away, hurst
into the river bed, overflowed the
slight banks, and in one big wave
went swooping down the valley.
Then the three comrades were in
their glory. They jumped about in
the mud, yelling like madmen, laugh

went after the wriggling and aston

It was near nightfall before the dam

\ True Story of Our Civil War, Shcniug
the l*o\v«*r of a Son^.
It was during Sherman's famous
march to the sea. The vast army had
burned the bridges behind, and was
subsisting on the best the country
through which it was passing could
afford. Even those w ho have carefully
studied the history of that long and
notable tramp from Atlanta to the
sea can appreciate hut faintly the
terrible scenes which followed in the
Wiikc of the army. War may he grand
and brave, but the sorrow ami woe.
pain and death, tire the shadows of
the picture, and those shadow s far ex
ceed the sunshine.
Orders had been given to burn all
cotton or other goods which would in
any way aid the confederacy. In con
sequence, the line of march was
marked by vast columns of smoke, in
dicating the burning of cities, towns,
farmhouses, barns—in fact, almost
everything inflammable. Great suf
fering and distress was caused by-
carrying out this order, and the peo
ple began to fully realize the horrors
of war.
Orders wen* also given for each com
pany to.forage for its provisions in the
neighboring country. Hungry men,
especially when the conscience is
somewhat seared by the brutalities of
war, are not apt to be over-scrupulous
ns to tin* amount of discomfort and
distress occasioned by helping them
selves from the larder-, of the enemy.
They of course realized that their vis
its were not appreciated, but that fact
diil not deter them for a moment from
making a "clean sweep" of everything
necessary to appease the appetites of
themselves and their comrades.
A sergeant and small squad of men
were detailed from each company for
this purpose, and at times their duties
were very arduous indeed.
One day in the early stages of the
march one of the:-.* squads, with its
sergeant riding at the head, came
upon a plantation home, rather more
pretention . n-whaps, than many of
those in tin* immediate vicinity. It
was a pcac •fill scene and one calcu
lated to awaken tender emotions, but
soldiers have very little regatd for
beauty when duty calls them forward.
The men quickly dismounted, and
after carefully fastening their horses
to guard against surprise, began ran
sacking smokehou-es and chicken-
coops, while the se-geant kept watch
in a prominent position before the
mansion.
To those long accustomed to this
kind of work the task of getting
everything edible from the outhouses
was a trifling one and soon accom
plished. They then turned their atten
tion to tin* house, where two attractive
hut very frightened young ladies were
found to be the sole occupants. Vig
orous protest was made against the
intruders despoiling the house of its
contents, but they were gruilly di
rected to plead to the sergeant for
mercy.
The sergeant being young, tender
hearted and somewhat smitten, per
haps, by the beauty of the ladies, was
disposed to listen to their request;
but, knowing that his soldiers were do
ing their duty, he w isely concluded to
let unit ter.-, rest as they were, so lie
politely informed the ladies that this
was war and that the necessities of
war demanded the spoliation of the
enemy; that he \vas there to see that
their persons wen * protected, tmt that
while his men kept within the line of
their iluty he could not interfere. He
very much regretted the necessity
which compelled liim to discommode
them, but assured them that while he

nun tatner amt bring him safely borne

Home—the tiny cottage nestling on i
the hillside, shaded by the neighboring
trees; the distant fields j-cllow with
ripiening grain, lowing cattle, tink
ling bells, moss-grown well, shady
porch, inviting chair, happy family—
ah! the memories arc too much, and
the silent tears trickle gently down
the sunburned cheeks as they are car
ried in fancy to a realization of for
mer happiness. Can they now de-
’spoil this pleasant home and bring
’^Borrow upon this happy family? No,
it is impossible.
As the last sweet notes quiver on
the stillness of the room, and finally
die away, each man brushes away a
tear and, choking down a sob, silent
ly steals away, leaving the house and
its occupants in peace. Threats or acts
of compulsion could not have accom
plished this result, but the tender
notes of a sweet song touched the re
sponsive cord in their rugged breasts
and melted the hardness with its pur
ity and love.—l>r. J. B. Chapman, in

Among the "Southern Historical So

Mullenabout “The Last Bays of Johns

den he would afford them the protec
tion due to their sex.
With much disappointment and vex
ation, the girls turned away. The ser
geant, looking toward the house, no
ticed a piano through the open win
dow of the parlor. An idea flashed
through his mind, and he asked the
young ladies if they performed on the
instrument. On receiving an answer
in the affirmative, he requested them
to play a selection to attract the at
tention of the soldiers, and when they
observed the men listening to sing
"Home, Sweet Home.” The young
ladies, acting on this suggestion, went
to tin* piano and played as requested.
Soon the ragged soldiers, attracted
b.V the unusual sound, stood in line
hcliiiid the ladies listening to the sweet
ami mellow tones of the instrument.
They did not make a very attractive
picture—indeed, it was almost laugh
able. Their bedraggled appearance,
ragged, dust-begriineil clothes ami un
shaven faces were forced into sharp
contrast hy the cool, white summer
dresses of tin* ladies and elegant fur-
nishings of the room. Hut, thank God,
clothes and outw ard appearances are
not the standard of mankind; under
rough ami uncouth exteriors can beat

When the piece was finished the
young ladies sang in sweet and tender
tones that old, old song which millions
had sung before and which will he

the Chowan river at Winton, but they
had heard of the presenee of federal
gunboats ut that point, and thought
it safer to seek a ford farther up the
stream.
After crossing the river they laid the
great good luck to fall in with a man
who had a sulky that, lie wished to
send to tin* town. They had been in
tlu* saddle for seven or eight days,
were pretty well worn out. ami of
course were glad to change their
method of locomotion. They agreed
to riili* "turn about," Mullen to have
tlu* first chance.
But, as lie says In recounting the
affair: "All is not gold that glitters.”
He had hardly started before he began
to fear that the thing would break
down. For three years lie had been
rilling on caissons and gun carriages,
and tlu* frail appearance and elastic
motions of the sulky kept him in con
stant terror.
Before lie had gone far ho gladly
surrendered the machine to Vilu dbeo,
who, being braver or less imaginative,
got on fatuously. The sight of his
comfort emboldened Mullen, and when
his turn came again he claimed it, and
soon found himself growing accus
tomed to tin* seat.
When they were several miles from
the town Whedbee took a crossroad
homeward, leaving Mullen to go on
alone, and in a few minutes then* came
tlu* booming of cannon. It must be
from the gunboats in the river, and
Mullen began to feel u'ncav.y. He had
no reason to expect any real trouble,
but still he did not fancy the idea of
facing the music all alone.
However, there was nothing to do
but to go on. He seated himself firm
ly in the gig, tightened the reins, and
dashed over the bridge and up the
main street of the town in the best
style hi* could muster.
"As 1 expected," he concludes, “the
town was tilled with sailors :iiul sol
diers, but they gave me :i cheer :is
I passed, and shouted: ‘There’s a
Johnny coming home in the best style
yet.
"I realized at once that 'this cruel
war was over,’ and those hearty greet
ings from quondam foes went a long
way toward reconstructing me.”—

"Have you the bullet that killed

youngster who kept a relie stand on
the battlefield of Gettysburg. “No,
sir,” was the reply; “wc sold the last
one yesterday, but wc ean have you
one by to-morrow,” Tlu* scarred and
begrimed old Kncktail, however, knew
all about (Jen. Reynolds’ bullet, so he
didn't order 11113'; hut he bought a di
lapidated canteen "from tin* scene of
I’ickett's charge.” Being somewhat
of a connoisseur in such mutters, he
examined the canteen closely and sat

Many a hoy living near some one of
