THE CASE OF HENRY WYATT AND OTHERS It is strange how long an error once started and obtaining: a, foothold, can retain Its place In the minds of peo ple. The oldj saw about falsehood wearing seveneagued boots, is true as - to biographical and historical errors. There is probably not a Virginian liv ing who does not believe that the North Carolinians . ran on the third day at Gettysburg, and thereby, helped to lose the victory no little.-? The ab : solute truth is that the North Carolin ians lost far more men than the Vir ' ginians lost, and went farther into the enemy's position than the Virgin ians went, according to the burial or ambulance corps of the federals, who found and buried North " Carolinians farther advanced than the men of any other state. There are letters now in this city, temporarily with Colonel W, ;. L. DeRosset, from northern officers bearing on the splendid fighting quali ties of the North Carolina soldiers, -and particularly their great bravery " at Gettysburg. Would that Captain Bond could publish his book on Get tysburg and two or three great battles. We must consider the Wyatt claim. Henry Wyatt was born in Richmond, Va.,. and came to Tarboro when a yOuth. That is well known in Tarboro ' and Edgecombe county, and has vbeen known to hundreds of North Carolin ians for a quarter of a century, per haps. Wyatt was no more' a native of North Carolina than Generals D. H Hill, Trimble, Heth, A. P. Hill, odke ' and Lane' were, who commanded North Carolina troops and! lauded them most ' highly, even to the very highest. , It is not many months ago since the nativity of Henry Wyatt was written up by one or more eastern North 'Car olina papers. There Is not the slight est ground for claiming him as a na tive born citizen of this state He was a faithful, brave, young sol dier, and fell fighting for his country at ' Bethel, Va., as I a member pf the i Edgecombe Guards. Captain- John Brldgers in command. He wasprob ably not the first 1 confederate to be killed in battle, as another Virginian was killed in an infantry company a few days earlier, as published in The Richmond Dispatch at the time All honor to Henry Wyatt, but let us be just, and not rob Virginia of a worthy native and soldier, j ' j - i Let us see as to the truth of the statement that Wyatt was the first ' soldier to fall in battle. . In -the Virginia Stite Library the files of The Richmond Dispatch show that in. its Issues of the 3rd and 7th . of June, 1861, there is a. full account of an engagement at Fairfax Court House, Va., J between the Warrenton (Va.) Rifles, which occurred on the 1st , of June, 1861. In that fight' Captain J. Q. Marr, commanding the Rifles, "was killed. This shows clearly-that Captain Marr was the firstj to be kill ed, not in the war, but the first to be killed lrf Virginia. . " But there was another fight, and on the 3rd of June, 1861, two j days after the Fairfax fight. On that day, the 3rd, jit Philippi, in Barbour county, W. Va., j an engagement ! took, place be tweei troops under Colonel Porterfield and federals commanded by' Colonel Kelly, in which, as an account before us states, j"eight Virginia soldiers were -killed, the names of jthree being given viz., Captain Arehy Richards, Thomas E. Simms, and a Mr. Danger field, of the Bath county cavalry.There were a number of others on the south ern side of the war who were killed before young-Wyatt, whose death took place at Bethel, June 10, 186L. such as the. eleven citizens of Baltimore who were killed in a fight with; Massachu setts troops ji.n the streets of that city April 19, 1861." J But antidaitjng all these (except that of Balt'imtore) at Camp Jackson, near St. Louis Missouri, on the 10th of May, 1861, twenty-felght prisoners and citi zens, after a surrender, were killed by the federals, three of ;whom were militiamen. On the 24th of May, 1861, when the federal . troops occu pied Alexandria,, James !. W. Jack son, ;pYoprietor of the Marshall House, of that city, killed Colonel Ellsworth, of the federal army, for tearing down a southern : flag which was waving over his (Jackson's hotelj and was himself immediately afterwards killed by one of Ellsworth's men.jBut though it may be said that none of: these latter were killed in battle, that Will not ap ply to the case of Captain Marr, killed June.l, 1861, at Fairfax, nor to those killed at Philippi June 3, 1861. We get these facts and dates from; a commun ication that appeared in' The Rich mond Dispatch recently and signed 1'W." The records were found by him in the old files of that paper. So really Henry Wyatt was by no manner: of means the first soldier to fall in bat-, tie on the .southern! side. Rememberj hat the little battle of Bethel occur-) red on the 10th of June, 1861. , Wyatt o,was the only man killed on the con-' federate side. j ; j The Richmond" Dispatch of a late date said this: i ! ! - : " . -' I i A friend of The Dispatch's writes us that Henry Wyatt, who was the first confederate soldier killed in bat-; tier was a native of Richmond, and lived here until he was 21 years of agej when his father removed to North Carolina, in one of the regiments I of which state the youth enlisted." j j But here iscmore evidence. While! at - it let us make it conclusive: ! I j Mr. W. T. Robinson Writes In The . Richmond Times of 18th ult., of young Wyatt. He and others, knew him when a boy, and they knew that he is not a : North Carolinian, but was born in Richmond, Va. He says he was 10 or 12. years old before he left Richmond, and went to North Carolina.. He says: "The writer was acquainted with the family, being about the- same age as young Wyatt and has lived all his life wlthiri three to five squares of the place that the family lived. At the time they moved from Richmond they were living in a house on Carringtpn street, between. Twenty-third and Jessamine, belonging to -the father of our late postmaster, W.' H. Cullings worth, previous ,to that, they lived in a house on Jessamine street, between venable and Carrington streets. The writer was at the battle of Bethel with his company, "H," Fifteenth Vir ginia Infantry. There was also pres ent three other "companies from his regiment, A. B and G; Company A was raised in the eastern end of the city and young fWyatt was known and recognized by several men in this com pany who had been boys and play mates of his. The; fact was not dis puted at the time he. was killed; that he was a Richmond boy ; there jwas no question as to his birth place jit that time." . . ! . . Jj . There is no occasion to makeJa boast when it rightfully belongs to another state. North Carolina is no pauper, that it must gather its glory from trie sons of other states. It has surely enough of its own heroes, "but It is tardily , conceded by people in other states, who ought to know better and to be more generous and fair.

Yi Tribune, both supporters of Pres ident McKinley and greatly helped to elect him, ibegin to turn on the light as to condition of . the army that is to be sent to Culba-it is time'to ipause and reflect. (Why hurry ooir brave soldier boys to the e-rfemy's country when they are to mo way ready f r the invasion They are not equipped, in the first place, and are inot yet made into soldiers by thorough drill and experience. "There ia no doubting 'the wiiringness of the people of all sections to respond, and the loyalty displayed was enthusiastic and promipt, tout of what avail so long as the 'goverrimen't is umalble to clothe and arm 'them. Lifter three weeks of delay 'the Second (North Carolina regi- Pment is neither clothed nor armed. And that too with sixty-five other white companies asking to be received for the-'war: When so- sympathetic, j a newspaper with the republican admin istration as the N. Y. Tri'bune is heard to talk out; after this .way, . it Is time to consider the (real situation. ,iWe make (but one short extract taken from its leajding I editorial , of "Wednesday headed "A t Sharp, (Military . Lesson." It says: ' ' "In .reality the revelation of military shortcomings in the .National Guard ha been distressing. . When, the sol diers had pretty fully reported ifior duty it was discovered that a large propor tion of them 'were 'without "uniforms or arms, -and thousands were actually sent to-southern campsTin that con&i- tion. Tt 'has 'been a combination, of opera ibouffe and tragedy, of which there is no occasion to Tehearse the details.. The people as well as the mil itary authorities of this; and we hope of every other State, will hereafter see to it that military virtues are as sedulously cultivated, as social . quail ties throughout the military establish merit." With the war looming up. for. months there was no preparation. So when it came there were neither military a-mfi nor proper outfit tfor most of the sol diers. It is jreally a painful subject, T'he N. Y. Iworld of the same day, has a speaking cartoon. iUncle Sam, another "Old (Rip Van Winkle" in ap J pearance, is lying down, just awaking from a protracted knap. He is ragged and seedy looking, with his gun lying by him (called 1861.) the old "Spring field Rifle," in a state of thorough rot tiness and decay. Over1 him is fhe "War Department," and '.' hanging around a"re signs with these inscrip tions "Wanted Arms;" Wanted Blan kets;" "Wanted Knapsacks;" "Wanted Canteens;" "Wanted Shoes;" ' ' Wan t ed Ha t s ; "Wan ted" Coa ts ; " "Wanted Trousers;" etc. The Tribune says: "This generation will probably never see . another .Governor 'Morton dismissing another Inspector General, Mr. . Lewee, for telling wholesome truth." - Elizabeth, N. J., Oct. 19, 1896.

' ' The Aberdeen Telegram in Its notice of the late judicial comvention" held at RocWnghsum refers in these, words to Judge JMcIver: "There was not one thing said against Judge tMcIver except that the district had honored him by keeping "him in ofnee lor 16 years in sucession, and as there were other -good men in the dis trict wanted (honors, it was time to make a change. Every speaker in .the conivention' -paid the highest tribute to Judge iMoIver, and these were equal' In "honor to ,the nomination. The men. nominated by the converftion are tooth good men and will be 'a credit to the district if elected. We hope aaid Ibelleve. that TiA. McNeill, of Robeson county, willjbe the next judge, and Colonel Mc Lean, of Bladen county, the next so licitor of this district." ' The Messenger most cordially agrees with this hope of victory-' Judge Mc Iver has served -but' eight years on the Circuit ibench. He was, solicitor fW some years "beVore he put on his judi cial robes he has worn so worthily and justly.

' The Savannah News . noting the course of the North Carolina demo crats in their convention, in getting rid of the fusion fake says this: "This leaves Butler' i gang open to trai RTviwhere else -that a (bargain may be made.
