I ever attended, and it is the most vivid recollection of my life. The body of General Little was later exhumed and sent to Baltimore, where he had relatives. He was in the old United States army before the war, belonging to the Seventh infantry. Colonel Selus Price, who was on General Price's staff, and John Kelly, the engineer, who were at the funeral, are now in St. Louis. I am here. I believe we three are the only survivors. Their last battle. [from the Atlanta, Ga., Journal, July, 1901.] Fight at Bentonville, N. C., between Sherman and Johnston. Some personal observations. The soldiers among the pine trees and how they reserved their fire until the Federals were within easy Range— desperate struggle. I am gratified to see so many articles on the Close Call order since my first appeared. It may have inspired many old vets to relate their experiences, more or less thrilling in their nature, and some of which are truly historic and very entertaining. Gen

Their last battle. [from the Atlanta, Ga., Journal, July, 1901.] Fight at Bentonville, N. C., between Sherman and Johnston. Some personal observations. The soldiers among the pine trees and how they reserved their fire until the Federals were within easy Range— desperate struggle. I am gratified to see so many articles on the Close Call order since my first appeared. It may have inspired many old vets to relate their experiences, more or less thrilling in their nature, and some of which are truly historic and very entertaining. General C. A. Evans, in commending me for starting the ball in motion, and speaking of these articles as the rising cream of Confederate history, pleased me very much. We all must know that now is the time—a few years more it will be too late—to prepare and furnish such history, and the encouragement your most popular paper has given to the matter has been noticed all over the country. I learn with much pleasure that many are preservi<

General Hood's brigade. [from the Dallas morning news, July, 1901.] Address of Judge Don. E. Henderson at the Galveston reunion. Review of its glorious achievements. Brave Texans left their native State and achieved undying fame in Virginia. On the occasion of the thirty-first annual reunion of Hood's Texas Brigade at Galveston, Judge Don. E. Henderson, of Bryan, a former member of Company E, Fifth Texas, Hood's Brigade, made the response to the address of welcome of Major Hume. He spoke as follows: Ladies, Gentlemen and Comrades,—The survivors of Hood's Texas Brigade, at the behest of the citizens of Galveston, have met in annual reunion to do honor to their dead comrades and to the memory of the Lost Cause. A year ago your city was selected for this reunion. Your condition at that time was far different from the present. Then you numbered a population of more than 40,000 souls. This was the beautiful Oleander City; the commercial emporium of Texas; industry st

Battle of Shiloh. [from the Atlanta Journal, July, 1901.] How the Federal advance in the West was crushed. Some very gallant fighting. What Beauregard and Grant said about It—The losses were very Heavy—Figures showing the forces Engaged—Longstreet not in fight. The author of the short sketch of the battle of Shiloh, which appeared in the Journal on last Saturday, was mistaken in some of his statements concerning that memorable conflict. In the first place the Confederates did not capture the division of General Prentiss, without the firing of a gun. Although the division was surprised, it made a gallant fight and did not surrender until late in the afternoon—about half-past 5 o'clock, says General Prentiss. General Beauregard, who took command of the Confederates upon the death of General Albert Sidney Johnston, says: By 5 o'clock the whole Federal army except Prentiss's division with a part of W. H. L. Wallace's, had receded to the river bank, and the indomita
