Hilton the other day to a News reporter who had dropped into his office, "and I'll tell you a civil war yarn; not a yarn either, lor what I am going to tell really occurred. "On a beautiful Sunday morning," began the 'Squire, "after the cavalry had been on several hard raids and K'turned to camp the men were order ed to take tneir horses out to graze There were no bridles on them, only halters, and the rein of each halter was fastened to the foreleg of the horse to prevent it from running off. "The scene was about two and one half miles from Culpepper court house on the Rrandy road and the men who were left in camp after the others had departed with the horses were request ed by the chaplain to assemble in a beautiful cak grove nearby for services. "After the horses had been staked out one of the cavalry men said to another one, whose name I'll not give, 'let's go up to the court house.' There was a ready response and together they .started off, the former riding his horse one of the best in the Virginia cavalry and the latter walking, having left his horse to graze. The people of Culpep per had all gone to church and when those two calvarymen arrived at the court house they met another comrade who invited them to go with him and he would get them some good brandy. "This not being in the days of pro hibition and blind tigers it lid not icquirv a long hunt to find the desired article which was stored back in the cellar. Several drinks were passed and then the accomodating friend filled three c. tnteens for the two cavalrymen to cairy back to camp with them, but after emerging from the cellar several other fellows came up and for a time the canteens circled very freely and when the time came for returning to camp the canteens had become very light. "I dijn't feel like walking two and a half miles," said the cavalryman who had left his horse behind, and his ap pearance gave truth to the statement. "Get up on that embankment," repli ed the ether, "and jump up behind me, my hon-e will carry two. "No MHtner ha I tlie cavalryman got ten astride and grabbed his friend around the waist than the horse, un used to carrying double, started for camp at full speed. Down the path he sped at the rate of a Southern mail train. Nothing could have stopped him. I he piece of oak woods where the i elisions services were being held was directly in the path of the flying horse, and onword he n shed. The soldiers hearing the clattvr of hoofs, arose in a body to see who or what was 'ap proaching, .lust, then (he frightened horse rushed into the crowd, suddenly wheeled to the left and dumped his two riders at the preacher's feet. They were promptly arrested and taken to the guard house where they leniained until the next, day when they were arranged before the colonel on a charge of disturbing religious worship. "I didn't go to church on purpose," one of them said iu defending himself "and if you'll excuse me this time I'll never go again," and I think he kept Ms word during the remainder of the war. "Tlie colonel reprimanded them after hearing the particulars and let them go without further punishment." One of the cavalrymen was a Char lotte man and he lives here today.
