B. Bobo, for your compliment and invitation to i visit you, in your correspondence in r The Times last week. It would be a great pleasure to me to visit you in ^ your great country home and talk of < our hard service together in the bloody struggle of the early sixties, but age and physical disability are against me and I doubt if I ever make the visit.

He replied: "Oh, I am starving on two pensions." He was drawr ing a pension from the United States i as a Mexican war veteran and also a Confederate warpension. Both . amounted to about $200. The General died a few years ago. Brother Bobo, * you .said you thought Colonel Wallace succeeded General Walker, but it ? was General Elliott that succeeded ' Walker until the battle of the Craytor. Walker was severely wounded and was never able for service any more r and then Col. Wallace was promoted to hriffnHior t"""""' 1 ? 0 nv?woi aiiu aci vcu mere until the surrender.
