" Remember what yon said at Malvern Hill, Fink?" queried Captain Stowe. "You bad jnst come home from a furlough, and got in that Mal vern Hill fight where yon were wounded in less than 36 hours after you got back. ’ continued Capt. Stowe, "and lying there that night you said ‘1 declare, if I'd known twas going to be this way, don't believe I'd 'a' come back for a day or taro." Next morning in tbe fight, Mr. Bry son's ram-rod stuck in his gun. As he raised op on his elbow to get it out, a bull in the crosa-fire from the Yankees caught him under tbe left jaw and cut n notch in the bone. "Yon can feel it there now." And under tbe gray whiskers of tbe brave old veteran the wound could still be felt. Tbe same bullet passed down through bis collar and split open a, book in his right coat pocket making two or three holes in his garments. Capt. Stowe was detailed that morning to cook dinner and the mao who took hia Enfield on the firing line was killed. The Brand Jury aad ^nlf Bata.
