I ROM AN OLD SOLDIER.
Union, R. F. 1). 5, May 8, 191(5.
I often get letter from ladies asking
mo if I know anything of their
people in the war. I attended the old
soldiers' meeting at Union last Saturday
and it certainly was fine. Rev.
Mr .Jones made an address to the soldiers
and spoke of the battle of
Sharpsburg, the Wilderness and 1
Chickamaugua and he said today is
the (1th day of May?the day the
battle of the Wilderness was fought
and he said all who were in that battle
please stand up. I stood and
four more, but I did not know them.
My friends have been asking me to
write on the battle of the Wilderness.
Gen. Grant consolidated his one hundred
and fifty thousand men on the
north banks of the river, no doubt he
sought that place to crush Lee and
Jackson while Longstreet was at Bristol,
Term. He struck tents about the
first of May and commenced his campaign.
Gen. Lee ordered Longstreet's
corps to come to him at once. They
came by rail to Gordansville and
marched through the country. Kershaw's
Brigade marched all night and
reached the battlefield and went right
in the fight. They threw up some logs
and chunks as breastworks. The Yankees
would drive them back from
their breastworks, then they would
rally and drive the Yankees back.
The Bratton brigade was about a mile
from the battlefield when the fight
began and they doubled quick and redoubled
quick and threw everything
down except their guns and ammunition
and rations. We got there in the
woods and formed a line of battle
and were ordered forward. The 5th
S. C. Regiment relieved the 15th S.
C. The 5th Regiment threw out a
line of skirmishers and drove to meet
the enemy. I was on the skirmish
line and got slightly wounded. The
line of battle followed the skirmish
lines and charged the enemies and
took a part of their breastworks. The
boys threw up their hats and hollered
"Hurrah for South Carolina!
Hurrah for the 5th Regiment!"

Fruitola possesses properties that

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dread disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly
influenced by constitutional conditions
requires constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken
internally and acts through the Blood
on the Mucous Surfaces of the System
thereby destroying the foundation of
the disease, giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have so much
faith i'n the curative powers of Hall's
Catarrh Cure that they offer One
Hundred Hollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials.
