Just behind us the ground divided to a little ravine that furnished shelter from the Mex- icans’ galling fire. Upon starting, the soldier moved by backward steps facing the enemy, aud putting his body between the Mexican bullets and Morris, and thus backed to get under cover at the ravine. Morris impatiently ordered the soldier to turn about and hasten off faster. “Shure”, said the gallant private, “the liftinent wouldn’t have me put him between me and the bullets!” Officers who study and appreciate the obligations of consecration to the service in time of war, know that the emergency may come when they will be called upon tosacrifice them- selves and their commands, in order thereby to save the other part of the army, and these are the occasions that sorely try meu’s souls. On the march of the confederate army from Richmond and Petersburg to Appo mattox Court house, in April, 1865, Lieutenant Gen. Ewell and Lieut. R. H. Anderson, realizing the neces- sity of holding the line at Sailor's creek, to savethe army trains, put their respective commands in posi tidn for that purpose and utilized every moment to hurriedly throw up some slight embankments. Our rear guard command came up and marched on by leaving Ewell and Anderson without any artillery. They fully understood that their sure it is the experience of other of-| ficers, valor was so usual that it was | only act of cowardice that impress- jed one, and cf this, I must confess, Isaw but little. In bodies, men would undertake things that could not be thought of by smaller num- bers, and then again field officers did | not have an opportunity to note in- dividual acts. It was at the battle of Sharpsburg where I had the honor to command a brigade under Gen. Hood. I need not remind any of the survivors North or South that Sharpsburg or Antietum, as our Yankee friends call it, was, for the numbers engaged, the bloodiest battle of the war. We had been fighting all the day near or about a building known as Mumma church. Sometimes we were in the advance of this building, and again the terrific firing would - force us to seek shelter in the woods. where there were a few pieces of al- most useless artillery. The Fifth Texas, on the right of the brigade was commanded by the gallant Cap- tain Turner, and as I rode in his di- rection, I noticed that an enlisted man, whose name I learned was Monroe, was engaging him in earnest conversation. Before I came up, Monroe had left the captain and was running like a deer in the direction of the enemy, who were quick to fire on any mov- ing thing. “Captain, what does this mean?” ITagked, as I looked after the flyirg figure. Pointing to the trampled corn field in which so many men, friends and foes lay, the captain said: ‘““Mon- roe, one my men, saw a flag rising and falling a bit ago, over near that burned stump. and he asked for leave to go and get it.” “Has your regiment lost its flag?” Lasked. “No,” he replied with pride, “what's left of the colors of the Fifth Texas, is still in our posses- sion, and we'll keep it while there's aman to carry it,” and he pointed down the line to where a lot of blood stained tatters flapped about a bul- let-scarred staff. “It must be a Yankee flag,” I said, “and if so, [hardly think it prudent to risk a man on such a venture.” Captain Turner made no reply but meanwhile my attention was drawn to Monroe, for I was now in- tensely interested in the outcome of this adventure. He reached the black stump about two hnndred yards away, and drop ped so suddenly that at first we thought he was shot Soon to our great relief, Monroe rose to his knees. We saw him lifting a man on his back and that the man clung toa flag. Monroe straightened up, took a quick glance abont him, and then started for our lines. He wasa young athletic fellow, but he had no child's burden. Men were falling back in the line, and how he escap ed is one of those wonders that can never be explained, though he was slightly wounded in the shoulder. He brought back with him not a Yankee and his colors, but the colur- bearer and flag of the fourth Texas, lost in our retreat. Every man in the brigade saw this exploit and greeted it with a ringing chear. The colors were saved, and I may add the color bearer got well. W. S. Worrorp. one and only chance was that the federals might charge precipitately, without the play of batteries, and in this contest they felt they could hold their ground. “In vain is the | net spread in mght of the bird.” The pursling federals were too wily and wary, flushed as they were in following a foe that vainly and re- luctantly retreated.
