nd conducted with renewed interest and zeal. We had lost our previous chaplain, Rev. Mr. T. M. Niven, who was compelled to leave the army on account of an asthmatic affection, early in the fall. His place was now, January 14, supplied by the Rev. H. M. White, who continued with us, ministering in the word and oft sharing our duties, till the end of the war; all cheerfully bear testimony to his zeal and efficiency in the Master's cause.

rnal. By W. S. White, Third Company Richmond Howitzers. Fall of Richmond. 'Twas the Sabbath morning on the 2d of April, 1865, and all was quiet along our lines. My battalion had been relieved from the front and was stationed a mile or so back in the rear of our main lines, on the north side of the James River. At the usual hour for divine services quite a goodly collection of men had assembled in the Third Howitzers and a feeling discourse was preached to them by our chaplain, Rev. Henry M. White, than whom there is no chaplain more popular in our army. How quiet and peaceful everything seemed, and yet, farther on, away off to the right, across the James River, scenes were transpiring that would shake from center to circumference our now hopeless Confederacy. Little did the pastor or the people think then that it was the last sermon to the First Virginia Artillery! The calm peacefulness of that Sabbath morning meeting, hanging as it were over the very volcano of destruc

e of retreat he was struck first by Colonel Marks and afterward by General Cheatham on his flank. These conflicts were severe, but the enemy was driven in with great loss. By this time Cheatham's command had arrived at the landing on the Columbus side. It consisted of Blythe's Mississippi regiment and the One Hundred and Fifty-fourth senior regiment of Tennessee volunteers, of which I was lieutenant-colonel and in command. General Polk took command of these regiments, together with Captain White's company, of Colonel T. H. Logwood's battalion of cavalry, and crossed the river. He ordered two regiments of General McCown's division to follow. General McCown dispatched Colonel Neely's Fourth Tennessee and Colonel Scott's Twelfth Louisiana regiments, but they arrived too late to participate in the action. On landing, General Polk was met by Generals Pillow and Cheatham, whom he directed, with the regiments of General Cheatham and portions of others, to press the enemy to his bo

Confederate humanity-an incident. By Rev. Henry M. White, D. D. Winchester, Va., April 29th, 1887. Editor Southern Historical Society Papers: The following fact may be worthy of a place in the historical papers of the War between the States, and I send it to you as my personal testimony. It took place under my eye when acting as chaplain in the Army of Northern Virginia. I say acting, for, although in the service for several years, I never held a commission. At the battle of Pog Artillery, was severely wounded in the thigh and taken, with others, to the Central railroad to be sent on to a hospital in Richmond. When I saw those in charge sending off many Federal soldiers and leaving him, I protested because he was a Confederate soldier. Their reply was, our orders are to send on first the most severely wounded, irrespective of uniform. He was kept the greater part of a day in the hot sun, and died soon after reaching Richmond. Very sincerely yours, H. M. White.

y; Theo. Hodgson of Eleventh Virginia cavalry, marched the section to the Fair grounds, fired eleven rounds, one for each of the old Confederate States. Returned with the guns to the corner of Market and Piccadilly streets; dismissed the men, with orders to assemble at 9:30. At that hour called the men to their places. Our old battle-flag was there with us—a present from the ladies of Charlottesville. It has many bullet holes through it. Colonel Chew was with us, and I introduced Rev. Dr. Henry M. White to the Colonel, requesting he should ride in his old place in line to the left of a colonel of artillery. We fired twenty blank cartridges at Stonewall cemetary and ten rounds at Fair grounds. On Tuesday night Captain Lyman and myself gathered some ten of the old battery in his room at the Taylor House of our old comrades, John Chew, and renewed old associations of by-gones, old songs, tales, &c.
