May, supporting a battery, we lay behind our breastworks iu mud aud water all day, there lieing a tierce artillery fire going on and we dared not raise our heads during the day. Two of the artillerynieu walked up close to where I was lying aud Hat down with their barks to the works and their beads above. In a short while a rannou ball came quarter lug across aud killed them both, teariug their beads literally to pieces. A day or two later we were or dered to move around and attack in the rear. Ho early in the even ing we got around and made the attack, the Yankees giving back for some distance. Finally they turned on os and we were rapidly being flauked and were driven back, and night coining ou we moved back to our hreuat works. On that occasion we had lost 1 1 of our company: two killed, K. II. Moore and J. F. Lingle, and sev eral wounded and some captured. On one evening the Yankees charg ed onr works at a poiut Just to the right of our company, a nuinlx-r of them crossing over works and firing an enfilading fire down our line. There was great coufiwiou and our Major and Culor Bearer were kith killed and one of our company, I. A. Klliott. Borne reserves came to our rescue and we drove them back. Later on we moved again, our next pitch being at Cold Harbor, where we had another battle, our casualties there being light. Our next pitch was some few miles down below Richmond, where we had auother fight and where Uev. J. A. Biveus lost his arm and John 8. Marsh was killed and others of our company wounded. By that time our company was reduced to only .12 meu. After resting a day our corps (which was Jackson's old corps) was ordered to Lynchburg to light or drive back the Yankee, General Huutcr, who was raiding that sec tion of couutry. After a wearisome march we arrived at Lynchburg ou Bunday evening. Early next morn ing we drew ti crackers aud pound of baoon and started to bunt up Huutcr, but Hunter had taken the biut and was moving back with all his might We chased him for four days through a rough, mountain ous country and the weather awful but, aud we had nothing more to eat after we left Lynchburg. 1 1 11 li ter's men bad slaughtered lieeves along the road and left the car casses lying. Our men would run out and trim off small bits aud car ry it along. We went as far as the town of Halem, where we gave up the pursuit aud turned our course to the right. Ooing down by Islington, the borne of Jackson, we marciicu around Jackson'sgrave. The ladies if you all will walk on slowly and wait for ine I will get the lieans." So I hopped into the bran patch and gathered a mens of beans; and going ou, alsiiit midday we stop jH'il at a farm house near the road side and engaged an old colored "auntie"' to cook our lieaim; we had among us enough bacou for the seasoning. We lay aud rested while our beans were rooking, and iu ilnc time "auntie" brought them out nicely cooked on a huge dish. We gathered around, aud without any grace we eat until there was uot any left, but I think we had enough. Somehow we found that "auntie" had a family apple pie iu the stove, and we bought it aud paid her two dollars for it. We fi ll iu aud ate that up and felt like we had had one more failure meal. N'ext day we met our command a few miles almve Harper's Kerry, wending their way back towards Winchester, and in a few days we were back in the vicinity of that historic town nud there, oil Mou day, the I'M li ol September, we had another pitched battle. I had neer been hit by a bullet up to that time, but it seemed there that day that they had taken a no tion to try aud put me out of the way. After Is ing in the light two or three hours, a bullet struck my left breast j but I was carrying a small I'.ilile in that pocket which the bullet struck, and in all proba-, bility the liook saved my life. Af tci that wo fi ll back to a Unly of woods and alsmt the middle of the evening they tried me again, hit ting me that time by the sido of the head. I thought at lirst that they had got me, and I hollered manfully. My fiiend, Daniel Mc Collum, was near me aud said, "Oh, t'hai lie!" But I was not hurt as bad as I fiixt thought; the skin was only broke and the ball had not entered, but it was an awful j.ir. T. J. Bi vemi was killed iu that light, one of the liest men of our company, and we had several wounded. We lost Major General Rhodes, one of our liest generals. He was physically quite a line look ing man. We were repulsed iu the fight and full back that night 1 miles to Fisher's Hill, and iu three days the Y'aukees advanced upon us again, and there we had a geu eral stampede, a great many of our men lieing captured, I being one of the iitimlier. On that occasion 1 had three bullet holes shot through my clothing. I remained a pris oner then until the close of the war. 1 hope, dear readers, you will excuse my poor scribbling, as I am getting old aud feeble both in body and mind. V. K. Huown. Wingate, X.

This, together with the marvelous growth of pride and en thusiasm iu both the church aud community, is rapidly briuging Mt Moriah to the front. The growth of interest in church woik has beeu very mailed during the last year. A splendid organ was installed in the church iu October; and at the same time it was decided to at tempt to carry on the Sunday school during the winter mouths, an untried experience in the his tory of the church. I luring each month interest grew, and iu Feb ruary it was decided to work for an enrollment of one hundred with in four mouths. By June the 7th, one hundred and twenty had beeu enrolled, with an average attend ance of eighty to ninety. The four mouths ended last Sat urday with a carefully prepared programme iu the interest of the Sunday school, in w hich each child acquitted itself so well that it made the parents' hearts throb with joy. Iu the preparation for children's day, Mh T. P. Brewer and Miss Era Martin deserve Recial men tion; uiaii) others if space would permit. Mrs. Brewer is a Sunday school worker of exei ience, and demonstrated her ability to pre pare children for such an occasion. Miss Kva Martin, the faithful and etlicient church organist and one of which any chinch might well he proud, rendered very faithful ser vice iu preparing the programme. An hour and a half Sunday after noon was taken up in the interest of missions. Short talks were made by Mr. L. L. Parker, the brilliant cashier of the Rank of i'agelaud, aud by the pastor. Following this, pledges were taken for missions, and to thnrredit of the church aud some visitors, it must lie said that au advance of more than JiOO per cent, was made over any year in the history of the church. The next task before the people is a church tiuililiug, nud this is expected to te completed Isifore the end of the year. It is right difticult to serve a church so far away, but the pastor finds pleasure in visiting and work ugwith such a generous, faithful and appreciative people. F. 1. Ktxii. Jonesboro, N.
