Robert Lewis Dabney, Life and Commands of Lieutenand- General Thomas J. Jackson, Chapter 2: the cadet. (search)
a decent mediocrity, from which his name has never been sounded by the voice of fame. The latter, by his manly decision, made of the same opportunity a tide, which, taken at the flood, led on to fortune. There was then living in the village of Weston a German smith, one of those neighborly, ingenious, gossiping men, who are as busy in discussing their neighbors' affairs as in repairing their implements of labor. Just at the time when the young man who has been mentioned returned to the countducation. The uncle replied that, on his return home that evening, he would mention it to Thomas, and recommend him to seek the appointment. When he did so, the young man caught eagerly at it; and the result was that the next morning he went to Weston, and applied to his influential friends for their support in an application to the Honorable Mr. Hays, then in Washington. All had known his industry, his integrity, and his honorable aspirations. All sympathized warmly with him in the latter.

The Letcher Guard, of Weston, Ga., and Slocum Rifles, of New Orleans, La., amounting to over two hundred men, arrived by railroad yesterday, and marched immediately to Gov. Letcher's mansion, to pay him their respects. The Governor, on appearing at the front of the Executive mansion, said it was the soldier's first duty to obey, his superior officer, and he commanded them to stack arms and come in and see him, which they did spending an hour or so in a social re-union, highly enjoyed by both parties. The two companies (the Georgia company in front) had at their head a beautiful girl of some 15 summers, dressed as the Goddess of Liberty, who rode on horse-back in front of the battalion, and was much admired by thousands who saw her petite and graceful form.
