Recollections of the Lste Wsr. [H.'trtsville Mesnenger.] Through the kindness of Mr. J. W. Gardner, of Tiller’s Fer ry, we have recently had the pleasure of examining a copy of the Camden Journal, dated June 3rd., 186*. The paper was found in a trunk belonging to Mrs. Abiline Kelly, who died a few weeks ago in Kershaw county. It is about half the sise of The Messenger and its subscription price was $■> per year. The subjoined article is clip ped from the Journal, and was written by our fellow towns man, Dr. B. S. Lucas, 31 years ago. In the lists of those re ported to be wounded we see the names o' several of our sub scribers, and we feel that the article will be of interest to many of our readtrs. s. c. Bucklen * Arnica Salva.

No braver or better soldiers ever marched to battle than those whose names are record ed above. The most of them fell in a charge made by the 7th. S. C. Batt, on the enemy’s breast-works in front of the outer-line of the defence of Richmond. Nobly did they sus tain the reputation of the old Palmetto State. Their battle cry was “boys remember where you a e trora.’’ The enemy’s works were carried, and ere many of the brave lads breath ed their last, the shout of vic tory fell upon their ears. The engagement lasted about twen ty (20) minutes; the loss of the Battalion was (169) one hundred and sixtv-nmo. Fifty-seven (57) balls pierced the battle Flag. The 16th. of May, 1864, will be . day long to be remembered by lagood’s Brigade, and particu- wly the 7th. S. C. Battalion. B. S. L.
