trust me with it? I have wanted for
so long to play such parts as that, but
I have never had a chance of trying
tin m.”
“Well, little girl, that is just what I
am going to give you—a chance. I
have noticed how well you have done
some of the minor parts assigned you,
and believe you can master this one if
you try.”
“If I try! You don’t know how
hard I shall try; and I think—I am al­
most sure—you will not be disappoint­
ed.”
“Yery well. I hope for your sake I
shall not he. Kelrearsal to-moi row, at

And handing her the roll of MS., he
turned again'to his work of superin­
tending the rehearsal then in progress.
STina Bertelle hurried to the cosy
little room she called home, and scarce
ly waiting to take off her hat or cloak,
began studying the part that she hoped
would be the stepping-stone to some­
thing higher; for Yin a was very am­
bitious, and to be a great actress, like
some she bad seen, was the one thing
she most wished for. She was but
seventeen, and had only been on the
stage but a short time, but Mr. Lacy,
the keen-eyed manager and part pro­
prietor of the theatre where she was
engaged, had discovered that she poss­
essed talent of no common order, and
determinedjhat if he could lend her a
helping hand he would do so.
Her mother h a 1 been an actress—
one^ihose little black-eyed women who
turn men’s heads, hearts and pockets
upside down before those lordly imrnitations of Adam know what they are
about. She had been dead but six
months when our story opens. While
she was living Hina had been kept at
a second-rate boarding school, for
Blanch Bertelle would have nothing so
nonsensical as a great, tall girl travel­
ing with her and calling her “mam­
ma” ; that was where the shoe pinched
worst of all. Pretty Blanche was
afraid of being called old, and a seven­
teen-year-old daughter -would surely
hasten that much-to-be-dreaded calam­
ity.
So Hina was kept in the background,
and Blanche wrote to her regularly
and went to see her when it was possi­
ble, and the rest of the time coquetted
toiler heart’s content. But frivolous
and weak as she was, she had resolved
that H ina should never lead the sort
of life she was living. Ho! Hina
should never go on the stage. She
must stay at the school until she was
eighteen, and then—well—then some­
thing must be done. But Blanch would
get so far and no farther in her plans
for Hina’s future, for she could not be
bothered about things such a long way
off; and she generally ended with the
commencement—that Hina should not
go on the stage.
B ut though' “the Bertelle” was con­
sidered a veiy clever little women, she
could not foresee the things that
were to he, or that she was to he
stricken down with fever in a far-off
town, and before Hina could reach her,
Blanche Bertelle would be no more.
But so it was, and Hina truly mourn­
ed the mother to whom she had always
looked up and revered next to the
angels. Hina knew nothing of the un­
told difficulties that await all female
aspirants to histronic fame, and more
especially so if those aspirants chance
to be young, beautiful, and friendless.
“Well,” she reasoned, “my living must
he earned some way, and as they don’t
want me at school as assistant teacher,
I will go to the theatre where mamma
used to play, and see if I can’t get an
engagement; for I am sure I can play
Juliet or Ophelia better than that
painted actress whom I saw last sum­
mer.”
And so she had packed her trunk,
shaken hands with her teachers, and
been kissed by fifty girls wbo declared
that they really could not exist in that
lonely place after their “dear, dearest
Hina” was gone, and had gone straight
to Mr. Lacy, who engaged her at once
to play small parts. And step by step
Hina had ascended the ladder on the
rungs of which so many feet have stum­
bled, and at the top of which so many
hands have grown dizzy, until, when
our story opens, she was earning a
neat little salary, was quite a favorite
with the habitues of the theatre. And
to-night she was to take the part of
the “leading lady,” and if she was suc­
cessful, what might it lead to? “And
I will he succe sful 1” said Hina, as she
read and re-read the part that was to
decide her future.Afterwards, Hina could never rem­
ember ma'ny of the incidents of that
evening clearly. She knew there was
a great many bouquets, a multitudinous
train to manage, and a great deal of
applause, and from the background of
all this chaos stood out distinctly two
faces. One, that of Hulbert Camble
(one of the many who had begged the
privilege of an introduction), a man
who but seldom troubled himself to
visit, the green-room, and who never
exerted himself to win a look or a
smile from an actress »as he did this
evening. And the other, dark, strongand self-reliant, but rather plain When
compared with the fair, kingly comeli­
ness of Gamble, and with a look in/the
kindly gray eyes that Hina could
scarcely define, but which, neverthe­
less, caused a very pleasurable sensa­
tion, was that of Mr. Lacy.
'
He'did not tell her—as many of the
others did, who were not all particular
.as to the breadth of their compliments
—that she was a beauty, angel, and
genius, all combined,, but her hand in
his, while with the other he gave her
head an aproval pat, as he said, “You
are a success, and I am proud of you!”
« And so'Nina’s new life began. She
waa-able now to give up the one room;
anduake instead a pretty cottage .near
the,{suburbs, with an elderly lady as
as chaperon and companion.
'Nih% said she wanted some place
that would be all her own, Surshe could call “home,” for tlia?ba,t
samething which the girl, with all ilex
beauty and talent, had never known.
How she could not complain of lack
of friends, although her, life, like all
others, had some shadows ’that .even
the warm glow of friendship could not
quite wave off; and while newspapers
vied with each other in praising the
young actress, others, generally mem­
bers of her own profession who were
envious of her success, joined with
each other with conjectures and sus­
picions.
But all this was as nothing to Hina;
she was interested in her work, de­
lighted with her home, pleased with her
numberless friends, and a little dazed
■with the adulation that she received
from the public in* general; and ‘if
any thing to insure her perfect happi­
ness, she wras hard to please if the de­
votion that Hulbert Camble showed
so plainly could not supply the defi­
ciency.
“And I am happy and perfectly con­
tented,” as she silemly-picked to pieces
a rose, and sent the leaves to the floor
in a pink shower as the door opened
and a servant banded her a dainty,
perfumed note, which she eagerly
opened and lead:
“My D a r l i n g :—I have an engage­
ment that will keep me from you for
to-day; but I w ill meet you at the
theatre this evening. I.shall be glad"
w’hen there are no more evenings ht
the theatre, for after I have you all to
myself there must he no more work
for my little Hina.
H a l b e r t .”
“This is too bad!” with her lips very
near to a pout; “for I wanted him to
go with me to Montmeyer’s studio, to*
see how my picture is progressing.
But of course we can go 'just as well
to-morrow, and I will not be bad hu­
mored for what cannot be helped, and
I know he would come if he could.
How lie must love me;” she mused,
a fain t flush suffusing the clear-cut,
olive-tinted face, as the remembrance
of Camble’s passionate words of love
returned to her. “I did not think I
eared for him so much. But no wo­
man could resist such love as Halbert’s.
And be said it would be the one object
of his life to make me happy. I hard­
ly think I care for him so much as he
does for me; but I like him better than
anyone else- -and then 1 don’t suppose
women ever care like men.”
But when she had reached this point
in T.er reverie, strangely enough a
scene of several months back came up
vividly before her, and again she seem­
ed to feel the pressure of Arthur Lacy's
hand slasping hers,.and his words, “My.
little girl, I am proud of you!” brought
tears to her eyes; and before Hina
knew what was the matter with her,
she was crying, why, it would be hard
to tell, since we have her own word
for it that she was perfectly happy.
A ring at the bell startled her, and she
hastily left the room, for fear of being
seen with her eyes red and her hair hi
disorder. But she had scarcely reach­
ed her own room, when a card was
brought out to her.
“The gentleman is in the drawing­
room, Miss Hina,” said the little wait­
ing-maid,
N
“Yery well, K itty; say that 1 will he
down directly,”, as she glanced at tue
card, and then thrust it in the bosom
of her dress. The name on the card
was Arthur Lucy.
When, five minutes later, Hina de­
scended to the drawing-room, it was a
very cool, calm, and sedate little lady
for wuom Mr. Lacy drew forward a
chair as he disclosed the object of his
visit.
’ He was tired if theatrical life, he
told her, and had made arrangements
for selling out his interest in the
“house.” and had called to have a
talk with her concerning her engage­
ment. H is successor was anxious for
her to remain, and offered her the
same salary she was getting now, and
he thought she would be satisfied with
the new management, for everything
would be conducted in much the same
way -as at. present; about the only
change would be in the proprietors.
H e would not ask for her answer at
once; she could take a week to decide
in, if see choose. That was all said in
the most business-like manner possible,
and in exactly the same tone he would
have used in addressing a total stran­
ger. And Hina looked at him, wonder­
ed how she could ever have though!
him so kind in her old days. A h ! those
blissful “old days,” when he had called
her “Hina,/ and “my little girl!” How
it was “Miss Bertelle” always. And
now he was going away—out of her
life forever! But, then, what was all
this to her? She must not think of
him, for she was to he Halbert’s wife,
and----“Oh! I ciin’t—I can’t!” were the
words that startled Mr. Lacy in the
midst of a sentence.
“Do you mean that you cannot ac­
cept the offer, Miss Bertelle?”
“Oh, no, sir! I did not mean—that
is, it was something else; I beg your
pardon, but I was not thinking of the
engagement,” stammered Hina, makin matters worse by. acknowledging
that she was paying no attention to
what he was sayiug.
^ “It is no matter,” said Mr. Lacy,
coldly. “I must go now, as I only
stopped on my way down town, and
you can let me know your decision any
time within a week.”
But Hina, seeing that she offended
him, was anxious to make amends, and
said: “Wait and go down with me,
will you not? I would like you to see
my picture; M ontmeyeris painting it,
and I will not keep you waiting ten
minutes.”
And. scarcely waiting for an. answer,
she flew up-stairs to dress, while the
carriage was brought around. ,
Lacy stood with an indescribable
look on his face as he watched her
leave the room.
“I was a fool to come here.” he
muttered, “and it is piece of folly I
shall not repeat soon. They say wheree
there is .no respect there can he no
love; but it does not hold good-in this
case, for I love her as truly as man
ever loved woman, at the time I be­
lieved her utterly unworthy of respect.
And yet at times I am half in doubt.
She is either the most perfect dissem­
bler I have ever met,.or else she is one
of the purest of women. But how can
I know ? To look in her face I would
say she was the most exacting would
expect; but how can one tell by wo­
man’s face? A t any rate, the sooner
I leave here the better it will be for
myself. I will accompany her to-day,
but it will be for the last time,”
Just then Hina came in, looking
lovely' in wine-colored silk, w ith a
great deal of black lace, and “a darling
of a bonnet," that gave one the idea of
a child that was trying to leave behind
her childhood and-be a woman. And
she, looking at him, saw him glance at
her in that lazy, indifferent way that
may mean a great deal of nothing at
all, and had no idea of the temptation
she was to this man, or how entirely
: his heart went out to her at the same
tim e that his'reason condemned her. '
For lately there had been a great
deal of talk about the young actress,
ow ing chiefly to the fact that Halbert
Camhle’s carriage was-seen before her
door more, the gossips said; than it
should be; “and it was nonsensical to
think* of marriage between them, for
Camble was no fool, and it was only
what they all expected; for of course,
being young and pretty, she was sure

The Republican party o f this State

is not in favor of having men who,
having been leaders, leave th e party
and enter into the most fierce contest
against it, simply because he fails to
secure an office, lifted to th e front rank
on th e first indication of repentance.
Such has been the history o f A ustin
Blair. Probably the most Tabid Dem­
ocratic speech, filled w ith the vilest
abuse o f the Republican party, ever de­

something of the way the liquor laden
breeze blows in Michigan as -well as in
other parts of the country:
The Michigan liquor dealers’ asso­

the saloon keepers,of the State in view
of the election oh Monday, in which
they say: “There are several bills
pending In the legislature, introduced
by the prohibitionists, and two bills in­
troduced by our friends. Should the
coming election go largely Republican
we have good reason to fear that the
prohibitionists null succeed in passing
almost all their bills. But if the Un­
ion party should carry this State this
spring, it is highly probable that the
bills introduced by the prohibitionists
will he defeated and our bills passed.
It is said that every one of the twelve

A Hr on Telegraph Wires.
.ago Tribune.
| ^ reporter m et a gentleman last evening ■who
claimed to have a solution of the trouble which’
a-dsts and w hich prom ises to continue in ref­
erence to telegraph poles and wires in the city.
His remedy was the substitution of a system of
pneumatic tubes for the present poles and,
wires, which system , h e says, has been in
vogue in New York to some extent fo r some
years, and which prom ises to b ring the longiooked-for relief not only there b u t in all largo
cities.
The plan h e proposes has not yet been
found to question its reasonableness or practic­
ability. F or the wires and polos h e would sub­
stitute pneumatic tubes to be laid under­
ground, and connected w ith the various tele­
graphic offices, all of the tubes centering at
a general office located a t some point outside
the city limits, or a t an office in the city which
should be connected with the outside office.
W ith such an arrangem ent a person wishing to
send a telegram to any point would go to the
nearest telegraph office, as now, and leave his
message, h u t instead of its being sent by wiro
it would be placed in a pneum atic tube and con­
veyed to the outside office, from whence it
would he sent over the wires to its destination.
T here would be, ho insists, a saving of tim e to
the sender a n d of expense to the telegraph
company, and from what ho had seen in New
York, where m iles of pneum atic tubes were
successfully working, h e thought the idea was
practicable, and i f once adopted would insure
greater accuracy and dispatch in the transm is­
sion of messages th an the p-esont system.
, T he first cost of p utting in tho tubes would
he great, he said, b u t it had been found b y the
W estern Union telegraph company to be a
profitable investm ent in New York, and be saw
n o reason why it should n o t he here. Then
again, there was in favor of it the popular feel­
ing against the unsightly poles and wires, and
since the city council had ordered that they
should be removed a t a given tim e, and tho
m ayor had started the work of removal in the
last few days, ho thought the telegraph com­
panies h a d le ft to them sim ply tho choice be­
tween putting in pneumatic tube3, purchasing
a repeal of the law on the subject, o r quitting
business within the city limits.
The use of pneumatic tubes fo r the trans­
mission of messages, and even packages is by
no m eans new. T hey have been successfully
used in London fo r re a rs for both purposes,
and appear to have been gaining in popularity
in this country. I n Philadelphia, for instance,
a proposition is on foot w hich is being seri­
ously considered by the post-office departm ent
to substitute the tabes fo r tho wagons now in
use fo r distributing the m ail-m atter to the suboffices, and i t is understood th a t in New York
large contracts have been le t to extend the tube
system there.

Mr . Steketee :
Dear Sir—I have thoroughly tried your CwWorm
Destroyer;” and think it the best remedy for Worms
known. I have tried numberless other remedies
for our three-year-old daughter with no benefit.
She was failing so fast her condition became alarm­
ing. Having noticed your advertisement, I imme­
diately purchased a bottle of vour (cWorm Destroy­
er.” A Jew doses improved her health, and a few
more restored her to her naturally healthy condi-*
tion. All symptoms of spasms have completely
disappeared. I should feel unsaie without the
medicine in the house. I have no objections to
your using my name for reference, as I am glad to
mlorm frightened mothers of so good a remedy.

Twelve millions o f the people of G reat Britain

secret of lim iting h e r population, b u t

of large sections o f tho community. The
troubles in R ussia are due, in great part; to the
taking u p o f all arable land in th a t country,

B u t there is another side to th e story. Steam
is rendering available all the arable land of
the globe. Wo have m illions of acres in our
own country unappropriated, and South AmeriIca could m aintain twenty times its present
population. C entral and southern Africa, the

o f yielding prodigious crops fo r hum an sus­
tenance. "Wise laws w ould add greatly to the
productive capacity of the soil of civilized
countries. Were Ireland, fo r instance, to have

The discovery th at grass, com, and other
fodder can, b y compression and the exclusion
of air, be k e p t during tho w inter months, is
likely to work a great revolution in farming,
and raise th e price o f land in this country. I f
cattle can be fed b y choap and nutritious food
during tho long Winter months, then will it bo
possible to keep herds in the north and east al­
m ost as cheaply as In tho sonth and southw est
T he faet that compressed fodder wguld last

covered sim ultaneously by a Frenchm an and

T he principle is the
same as that taken
advantage of iu
canning fruit and
vegotahlos for h u ­
m an uses. T he cost of ensilage bears no
comparison to its marvSlous economy. It is
said the growing o f turnips in England sown
on w heat fields that havo ju st been harvested
had nearly doubled tho price of farm lands in
England, "as the roots could bq fed to cattle
during th e winter. So, h c ea fto r, in the north­
ern states, wherever grass or corn can be
grown in quantities during the sum m er, an
abundance of cheap fodder can be secured on
w hich catfle can b e fed during the w inter
m onths. This is a fa ct o f the greatest m o­
m ent to owners of fa rm lands in the northern
and eastern states, and pu ts on end to the
monopoly of cattle raising heretofore enjoyed
by tho west and southwest, and utilizes m il­
lions of acres east of the Mississippi which fo r
some years p ast have been, well nigh w orth­

In m any parts of Switzerland are often found

has long been a mooted point among the learned.

The annual im portation of hum an h a ir to
this country is valued a t $1,000,000. I t is
brought from Germany, France, Bohemia,
China and Japan. F ro m the two la tte r nam ed
countries the supply is m ostly obtained b y cut­
ting off the pigtails o r cues of prisoners. T his
mode of punishm ent is considered to b e m ost
severe, and the ordinary Chinaman in
his own conntry
w ould
alm ost as
soon he executed a t once as lose
his pigtaiL T here are, however, several
Chinese and Japanese m erchants who keep
travelers going ro und the country collect­
ing them from the poorest of tho poor in the
agricultural districts who a re reduced to p a rt
w ith their m uch-cherished appendages fo r a
m ere trifla As a rule, however, they aro
either secured from the prisons oraroobtained
by force and robbery. I t is said th a t some
m erchants in this line keep ii staff of men in
different cities in China whose business is
simply to waylay and divest the unsuspecting
Chinaman of his coveted tail. Those tafia
weigh about fifteen ounces oach and are w orth
in their raw state when landed here fro m four­
teen cents to a dollar a pound. T he average
im portation of this class of h a ir has been,
during the p a st few years, about two thou­
s a n d cases, each being fro m 140 to 150
pounds in w eight
Pigtails are considered in tho h a ir trade as Of
a very low class and are generally used fo r
mixing w ith other and hotter qualities. T hey
are prepared for use by processes peculiar
to each m anufacturer, each one claiming to
possess a secret in the mode of dressing w hich
he jealously guards, as is the case in dealing
u-ith all other kinds of h a ir th a t has to bo re ­
fined and dyed. The tails are first subjected
to a thorough washing and cleansing and are
then heated with peroxydo of iron and other
acids, w hich although destroying tho nerve in
th e hair allows it w hen thoroughly dressed to
take on a finer and m ore silky appearance, i t
being in its raw state quite coarse and rough.
The desired color is secured hy the u se of
acids. When finished i t is cut 'into tho re ­
quired lengths and p u t up in hanks or
switches.
Crimps, switches and fronts fo r the use of
the belfes of the colored comm unity are m ade
from Chinese h a ir exclusively and can when
dressed scarcely be told from the original and
natural negro “wool.” The demand fo r this
class of h air is. however, rapidly diminishing,
and the importations are likely, i t is said, to
he given up altogether.
The h a ir im ported from E uropean countries
is divided into three classes. T he first quality
is th at cut from the bead of a living person,
the second th at w hich has fallen out, while the
third is th at which is commonly known as
“combings,” and is obtained from Italy where
i t is gathered from the streets b y m en and wo­
m en who go about looking for i t in every hole
and com er like the rag pickers do fo r rags in
New York. These combings are sold to large
dealers who by means of ingenious m achinery
comb i t out" straight and subsequently by
another simple process get the roots all to
one end. This latter’is done hy soaking the
hair in a decoction of Soap and soda in water
and rubbing i t between
tho
hands
when ihe roots always tu rn downward w hen
they aro drawn out and b u n c h ei in proper o r­
der. On arrival here all raw h air is found to
be in a very dirty and greasy state. I t is, first
of all, well rubbed with oit-m eal flour, whioh
to a certain extent absorbs tho grease, a fte r
which it is washed and combed repeatedly
until it is considered thoroughly d ean . I t is
then drawn rapidly through w hat a n called
hackles, which resem ble a lo t of needles driven
close together in a board. This cleans off a ll
the m eal and other foreign m atters w hich is
found adhering io tho hair, and gives i t back
its n atural gloss. A peculiar feature of n a tu r­
al hum an h air is th a t i t never loses its vitality
or nerve unless it is destroyed by being im ­
m ersed in acids. The price varies according
to length and quality, andranges from §6 to
$12 a pound for the commonest qeality, a n d
from §12 up for the better qualities, according
to its length, color and fineness.
White h air which is of good length i s w orth
as m uch as $500 an ounce, b u t it m u st h e a
pure w hite to obtain this figure. N extiu value
are th e different shades of w hite and gray;
then come the lig h t blonde and drab shades
and browns, etc. Black is th e cheapest of all
as i t can be readily supplied h y the use of dyes.
Messrs. C. Caspard & Co., No. 17 M ercer
street, who aro th e largest im porters and
m anufacturers of hum an h a ir in New York,
exhibit a sm all parcai th a t could easily ho p u t
in an ordinary coat po.-kot w ithout trouble
which they value a t $2,500, containing some
magnificent samples of different shades of
hair, from p ure white to silver-gray, and of
unusual length and quality. One of the
salesmen connected'w ith tho firm tells of
an old beggar woman in Baltimore who
possessing a magnificent crop of long gray
hair sold it to a hair-o.-osser in fhat d ty fo r
$60, or a t the rate qf §6 a n ounce, i t weighing
when p u t in the scales ten ounces. S h e h a d
gone into tho store to hog, and when offered
what seemed to her a sm all fortune, was only
too glad to avail h erself o f the offer mado to
her. The peasant girls of Bohemia f nrnish the
finest and host quality of hair, and after them
come the G erm ansand French. The price th a t
is paid to ono of these girls fo r h e r crop is
about $5 or $6. A substitute w hich is often
palm ed off by hair-dressers and wig-makers
where p u re white is required is a h air obtained
from the tail of a kind of hnffalo found in Asia,
and known in tho trad e a s “Tack hair.” T his
is often used to m ix w ith fine qualities, in
order to increase tho hulk, and for cheapness.
No hair except “pigtaiJ” ia dyed to represent
the blonde or drab shades.
Infectious diseases h a re been said to have
been disseminated hy m eans of the h a ir ob­
tained from persons' inhabit ating infected dis­
tricts, b n t m erchants in th e trade state that, in
their opinion, i t is next to impossible th a t such
resnlts can occur, considering th e num erous
processes of cleansing and washing i t under­
goes before i t reaches a state fit to bo worn.
H air is never cut after death, for it would then
be found utterly useless fo r the purposes of
trade, losing its vitality and consequent gloss,
and no am ount of dressing or m anipulation
can restore these qualities.

Professor E lisha Gray, standing by, touched a

A young lady well known onW ood river,who
was bom and raised in Idaho, and who Jiod
never soon a steamboat or railroad car, recently
left for a trip south, and m uch interest was
expressed here by h er friends as to to h e r first
impressions of the outer world. Sho alw ays
evinced such an even demeanor th a t m any
friends believed sho would pass as an old trav ­
eler; but a le tte r ju st received from h e r escort
proves th a t a young lady, even one of Idaho’s
fairest, and one th at can calmly regal'd th a wild
Indian on tho w ar path, is unequal to the occa­
sion of calmly passing through the surprises
of m odem progress.
She became skittish a tth e approach o f the
evening lightning express, w ith its g reat bull’seye headlight, and actually pranced when the
train neared the depot ana blew a long, shrill
whistle. H er friends could n o t cpiiet h e r or

Having recently purchased an
Ensilage.
Commercial Gazette.
E v ersm c e the death of th e famous rebej
raider, G eneral Jo h n H. Morgan, in September,
lSfrt, “the trno story” of the m anner of his
death has appeared in the press periodically,
each story differing from the o ther in such a
rem arkable degree as to raise doubts in tho
m inds of the present generation as to tho au­
thenticity' of any of these stories.
The latest version of the affair appears in
the correspondence of the E nquirer, dated at
Columbus, 0., reiterating the old story th at
General Morgan was brutally m urdered by tho
loyal Tennessee troops under command of
General A. C. Gillem, w ith the additional charge
th at his dead body was tied to a horse’s tail,
and dragged through the streets of Greenville.
As a m em ber of Gen. GiUem’s command,and
in justice to the loyal E ast Tennesseans, I ask
space in y o n r excellent paper to state briefly
the circumstances attending the death of Gon.
Morgan, as rem em bered by m e after the lapse
of over eighteen years : On the n ight of Sep­
tem ber S, 1S64, Gep. A C. Gillem, in command
of the E ighth, Ninth, and T hirteenth regiments
of Tennessee cavalry, and the T enth Michigan
cavalry w ent into camp a t B ull’s Gap, a point
fifty-six miles east of Knoxville. Ou the same
night Gen. Morgan, whose command num bered
about three thousand troops, encamped at
Greenville, eighteen miles east of Bull’s Gap.
Neither commander was aware of the close
proximity of the other. About 10 o’clock at
night Gen. Gillem received inform ation th at a
small force of rebels were encamped on tho
road botween Greenville and B ull’s Gap, and
at once conceived the idea of capturing them.
To accomplish this he ordered Colonel Ingerton, of the T hirteenth Tennessee cav­
alry. to move-lus regim ent by an unfrequented
road to the rear of this force. Colo­
nel Ingerton, guided by one Captain Sizemore,
who was fam iliar with the country, after
m arching over a m ost difficult road through a
severe rain stolen, whioh lasted all night, suc­
ceeded in reaching the state road a a point one
mile west of Greenville, and placed h is regi­
m ent in position facing Bull’s Gap (except two
companies, which were faced in the opposite
direction as a precautionary m ovem ent).to
await the small force of rebels whioh were to
be attacked by tho rem ainder of General Gillem’s command, and w hich he hoped to inter­
cept and capture. Colonel Ingerton was still
in ignorance of tho fact th a t General Morgan
with his command was only a m ile away, and. i t
was while waiting the approach o f the enemy
from the opposite direction th a t he received
the startling information, through a Mrs.
■Williams; that General Morgan’s command was
encamped on College Hill, ju s t east of Green­
ville,and the general and Ins staff were a t h e r
house in the town. T he colonel ordered
M ajor Wilcox, I n charge of the tw o companies
w inch were in position facing the town, to pro­
ceed. a t once to th e house of Mrs. Williams and
capture Morgan and h is staff. •Wilcox accord­
ingly surrounded the premises of Mrs. Wil­
liam s, consisting of a house located on a tri­
angular sh a p e d lo t containing an area of about
three acres, p a rt of which was a vineyard.
Finding them selves surrounded, th e general
and his staff officers r a n o u t into the garden
looking out for a chance of escape. J u s t a t
tins tim e a soldier in h is shirtsleeves w as dis­
covered, crouched behind a cluster of grape­
vine, and wa3 ordered to snrrender. Finding
th a t he was discovered, instead o f surrender­
ing, h e started to ru n , w hen h e was fired upon
alm ost sim ultaneous;? by Andrew Campbell
and John G. Burchfield, o f Company O, T hir­
teenth Tennessee cavalry. Throwing n p his
hands,
he
exclaimed,
“Oh,
God!”
and
fell
dead.
T his
m an
was
' General Jo h n H. Morgan. The first clue to
Ms identity was a pistol lying bj-his side, upon
which was inscribed, “Presented to Capt.
Jo h n H. M organ by Col. C olt” After the body
h a d also been identified by some of his staff
officers who had been captnred, it was placed
u p o n a horse and hastily conveyed back, tow­
ards o ur regim ent, closely pursued by tho
rebel troops, whom th e firing had apprised ‘of
the presence of our forces. General Gillem
soon came u p with the rem ainder of Ms com­
m and, and a sharp engagement took place be­
tween Ms brigade and Morgan’s troops, now
u n d e r command of Gen. Basil Duke, resulting
i u the defeat o f tno latter. A fter the fight the
body of Gen Morgan was delivered over to Ms
comrades and friends under a flag of truce.
Tlio report, started a t tho time, th a t Gen.
Morgan h a d been m urdered by the Tennessee
troops was publicly denied b y Cob Clay, of Ms
(Morgan’s) staff, in a card published in T he
Knoxville Whig. Col. Clay, who was then
a prisoner in o u r hands, stated th a t Gen. Mor­
gan had often said h e would never again su r­
render, and it was his adherence to this reso­
lution th a t cost Mm his life. Another incident
related to ns a t the time, pertaining to the
death of Gen. Morgan, m ight he of interest to
those o f a superstitious tu rn of mind. The
night previous to M s death was a dismal,
storm y night-, raining alm ost incessantly, and
the general having no adequate shelter from
the storm, and having sent out detachm ents o f
troops on all the roads from which an enemy
m ight be expected to advance, he de­
cidedto seek shelter fo r him self and staff in
town. A fter h e had been a t tho house of Mrs.
Williams fo r some time, h e rem arked to some
of Ms officers th at h e felt as if he should re tu rn
to camp, th a t h e was oppressed by a m ysterious
foreboding o f evil, and once or twice decided to
re tu rn to camp, b u t was lulled into a feeling of
security by the m ore cheerful m eed of his
companions, and finally decided, to remain.
Reflecting upon his tragical death th en so near
a t hand, one is led to wonder if some good
angel, whose voice th e rebel cMoftain failed to
heed, was w hispering warnings o f h is impend­
ing danger.
The statem ent of tho correspondent above
referred to, th a t Gen. Morgan was killed b y a
deserter from h is Own command on account of
some personal grievance, is erroneous.
Andrew CambpelL who was supposed to have
fired the shot th a t killed Gen. Morgan, although
a deserter from the rebel arm y,had never known
Morgan, and did n o t have the rem otestjdea
th a t h e was firing a t Morgan. I will add that
Campbell is a native of Ireland, and since the
w ar h a s resided fo r m any yeavB at Blooming­
ton, Indiana.
