Zack (search for this): article 4
Rough and ready.
The New Orleans papers pay a just tribute to Mr. Taylor, the only son of "Old Zack," who is one of the most prominent, efficient and practical friends of the Southern cause in the Louisiana Legislature. Gen. Davis, the President of the Southern Confederacy, married a daughter of the old Chief, and it will be remembered had some tart correspondence with Gen. Scott whilst Gen.

The umbrella was standing alone, and Wrenn being a youth "infinite in faculties" chose to adopt it.
