During the laugh that followed, Gray stood blushing, while Jackson, with his eyes fixed immovably upon him looked like a statue. As soon as order was restored, to the great amazement and amusement of the whole class, Old Gabe not excepted, Jackson, with a stiff military salute and a much more perceptible smile on his face, replied: Yes, sir! that is right; you can take your seat, Mr. Gray. This, Old Jack's conundrum, was the talk of that happy, merry-hearted corps for years afterwards. Little did we young rascals—embryo Southern soldiers—then dream that our plain, big-footed, taciturn, fearless, prayerful, tender-hearted and punctiliously polite Professor of Natural Philosophy was to flash so soon, meteor-like, before the world as one of its greatest military heroes, and that so many of us bright, ruddy faced boys, under his matchless leadership, were to go down to death with him under the Stars and Bars, in defense of Dixie, the land of fair women and brave men.

as free, and going home, and that was the best tonic I could have. At City Point. At City Point our prison friend, Captain Patterson, came on board the vessel to see us, and there was a rush to shake hands with him. He said he was glad we were going home. Notwithstanding all the searching, one man had succeeded in concealing his flag and as soon as we were on the Confederate boat he unfurled it, and a deafening shout rent the air as the boys greeted it. While in Richmond I met Colonel Lane, and was surprised to hear him say, Why, how are you, Company I? I told him how astonished I was that he knew me, and he said, I never forget a Twenty-sixth boy. My faithful and unselfish friend, Perk Miller, another Caldwell county boy, who had joined the first company that was formed in Caldwell, had shared every morsel of comfort with me during our long imprisonment, and was my companion still as we joyfully wended our way to our mountain home. A part of this journey was on foot,

ries of questions as to the causes of Lee's defeat at Gettysburg, and asking that I secure replies from leading Confederate officers, who were in position to know. I sent copies of this letter to prominent men in every corps, division, and arm of the service, with a personal letter requesting a reply. The result was a series of papers on Gettysburg from such men as Generals J. A. Early, A. L. Long, Fitz. Lee, E. B. Alexander, Cadmus Wilcox, J. B. Hood, H. Heth, L. McLaws, R. L. Walker, James H. Lane, and B. D. Fry, Colonels William H. Taylor, William Allen, J. B. Walton, J. R. Winston, and W. C. Oates, Major Scheibert, of the Prussian Engineer Corps, Captain R. H. McKim, and the Count of Paris. General Longstreet did not send me a paper, as I requested him to do, but published a second paper in the Philadelphia Times, in which he undertook to reply to his critics, who had handled his first article pretty roughly. It is clear that I was, according to the rule among editors, under n

t is all plain now—we went straight, but the road makes a turn). It is there where we saw the deserted artillery, and the dead and wounded horses. All looks now just as it did then. I do not think the trees have grown a bit; even the bushes seem to be the same. Here is the place. We march by the left flank along the road a short distance, and halt, and front. Here is the place. Our left is near the brow of a low hill or rise. It is so dark that we cannot see a man across the road. Lane's skirmishers are in front and open fire just abreast of our left flank. In a short while a wounded man is borne along towards the rear, just behind our regiment. Several men were holding him up, and he was trying to walk, when brave Sergeant Tom Fogg recognized him, and said: Great God, it is General Jackson! Then the order is given to deploy the regiment as skirmishers, and almost immediately the road was swept by such a destructive artillery fire as can only be imagined. I don't beli
