"From Wed Point Before the
Warf by Gen & W Ferguson, Fitzhtigh
Lee's room mate, in the April
Metropolitan, Magazine.
Soon afterward, Colonel Leei
was relieved from duty at the
Military Academy and took
command of a legiment of cavalry
of which he was made col*
TTT , , L I
I onei. we were iruiy sorry wnen
j he left, for his almost perfect
character could not fail to inpress
all who came in contact
with him. I saw him but once
after he left West Point. I will
digress a little 1o tell of it. 1 ,
was at home in Charleston on
furlough during the winter of ,
1859, when I received from his
son, William Henry Fitzhugh..
Lee, an invitation to be one of ,
his groomsmen at his marriage ,
to Miss Carter, .at Shirley, oil
the James River. Most of the .
wedding party went together by ,
steamer from Richmond two orj
three days before the ceremony .
and were all entertained in tnie
Virginia style at the plantation ^
mansion. The young men were t
lodged in several outbuildings.
I had a rare opportunity of seeing
the great soldier an bis home
life among relatives and friends.
One thing which I noted particularly
was his extreme modesty
?I might almost say bashfulness.
His older brother, Mr
-Carter Davis Lee, told a capital
story, sang a good song and was
the life of any party of which he
happened to be a member. After
dinner, when the cloth had
been removed and the old Madeira
brought on, the ladies did
not retire, as the custom was,
Knt ramainprl In r Mr Pa rfflr (
uuw avuiuiuv.u wv uv?? vui w& ^
Lee's songs and stories. He .
would invariably toast the i ]
army and call upon Colonel Lee, (
the senior officer present, to re- 2
spond, and everyone would re* s
peat the call. The colonel would
raise his glass of Madeira, bow
to the company and take a sip
of the wine, but never a toast 1
would he give. I watched him t
closely, and upon my word he
blushed like a girl, yet there
was no one present but rela* ^
tives, except a few young of- ^
ficers, who had been under him
at West Point. 1
MA TEMPEST 111 1TEAPIT."
Irfter fren Lake City U Styles Bispenury
Meddle
Lake Citt, March 14:?It is
earned from the members of the!
tounty board and et the county del-]
gation, who are accessible to the
eporter for the Times, tna: tne stir
u tbe county dispensary matters is
ikely to be nothing more than a
empest in a teapot, and that tbe
?oard will come out all right.
From those seen, it seems that the
charges against the board were made
>y Attorney Gilland, who was fornerly
the clerk, and who was disnissed,
the board claims, because of
i letter that they received from an
Atlanta whiskey house,written them,
t is claimed by Mr Gilland, asking
vhat inducements could be offered
lim to hare purchases , made from
bat bou This letter was sent to
he boar* , the whiskey house, so the
rimes m m is told, replying that
bey could not make arrangements
>f the sort by mail, but that they
nustcome in person to Atlanta.
i?hen Mr Gilland was discharged
le weuv before the Williamsburg
lelegation in Columbia to prefer
charges against the board, baaed on
? . l . i? J
:ne same doom mat ne so aoiy aefended
against the attacks of Attorney
Stoll a short while before. The
board had sent the letter of the At.
Lanta concern to Auditor West, who
ippeared with, the < delegation when
Mr Gilland put in the charges, aud
be gave no explanation of it, at that
time, the members of the delegation
say*
The investigation was asked tor
and Inspector Ha at was sent down.
He has not yt* reported. The board
bas asked that Mr West come him
self and he is expected tn Kingstree
today.
In the matter of the bonding company,
the members of the board
claim that the manager of the bonding
company, being a relative of Mr
Gilland, withdrew the bonds out of
sympathy with him and his charges,
and that new bonds have been pro
cured and filed and the board continues
to discharge their functions.
It is farther said on the part of
the board, that charges made against
them in Cdumbiawere irregularities
and overstocking, but they claim
that when they inquired into the
reason for so much whiskey being
shipped to them thty were told that
it was ordered by their clerk. Other
irregularities are alleged to be
irregularities in the bookkeeping.
The board invites investigation, and
declare that they have not intentionally
done anything that they
ought not to have done and if they
have they want to know it. They
feel that they are right in spirit,
even if they are wrong iu some particulars
in the letter and that charges
made by their clerk after being
dismissed from their service, based
en his own books will not be likely
to get them into very much trouble.
