Bnchanan Read, E— A SOLUIHR'S REVEN Lieatenant J, Dark Chandler fur- nishes a rather romantic and hitherto untold chapterof the late civil war, The scenes aro laid at and around Burnt Ordinary, James City county, Va., a locality familiar to all who have traveled what Peninsula Virgin- ians call the Williamsburg stage road. The lieutenant relates the following in the Newark (N. J.) Call, of a recent issue: Burnt Ordinary is a place the mem- ory of which, we doubt not, still exists in the minds of very many of the old Peninsula campaigners of the union army. Before the war it was a coun- try tavern, accompanied by a store or two and a few tradesmen’s shops, and located remotely in the upper end of James City county, Va., a few miles from the head of York river. During tho past summer Burnt Ordinary came mto notice once more as the center of a mysterious life drama hav- iog its origin far back in the incidents of the rebellion and its termination in a sad tragedy. Forty years or more John Harpel came from the neighborhood of Lynch- burg, Va., and purchased the old country tavern even then known all over the Peninsula from Richmond to Fortress Monroe, and from the York river to the James, asa popular stop- ing place for inland travelersand a anrih rendezvous of sportsmen, and patticularly fox hunters, It was also the voting place for that portion of the country and a_gathering place for the country politicians. arpel’s family consisted of his wife, and, after some years’ residence here, one daugh- ter, Harriet, who, at the breaking out of the war, waa about 18 years of age. The old man, through years of thrift in a lively business and the labor of some thirty or forty slaves, had be- come & man of considerable wealth, and no little local influence. He was a radical southerner. Mrs. Harpel died in 1865, and the daughter was sent to a northern seminary, and came summer and winter of 1862 63 passed away, and Burnt Ordinary saw but little of war. Captain Savage made a few visits with a view to pressing his suit, but as protestations, flat fery and threats seemed all alike useless, ho apparently abandoned the iage. On New Year's Day, 1863, com- pany D, First Pennsylvania cavalry, made an excursion of observation up the Peninsula, and eamp on Harpel's farm. They were far from the Union lines at Fortress Monroe and Fred: ericksburg, but the eountry seemed quiet, and no danger of surprise was apprehended. The Sixth Virginia confederate cavalry was, however, on duty st New Kent courthouse, and when the sympathizing country people brought the news that a company of “Yank" ocavalry had imprudently located at Burnt Ordinary, three com- panies, under the command of Captain Savage, were ordered to proceed at once to the in- fested neighborhood and exterminate the bold invader, On the 18th of January, 1863, Captain Savage left New Kent, and that evening one of Harpel's darkies, returning from an orrand, was stopped and qnestioned by him, about five miles from Burnt Ordinary. As soon as the darkey was released he flew for home as fast as the old horse cculd carry him, and recognizing Miss Harriet as the one most interested, burst in upcn her home finiched in 1860 to take charge of her father's hoase. In addition to a good education she was a bright, intalligant, handsome irl, of open, candid manners, and fovnble disposition, and she queened it over old Harpel and his belongings in right royalstyle. For a few mon after her return all went well, and then Harpel one day was horrified to discover that his daughter was very considerably imbued with dootrines at vanance with the ‘‘peculiar institu- tion” of theSouth, When McOlellan laid siege to York- town, Bert Savage was h(m siege to T T rather fast Virginia youth, popular] kuown as Albert the son o!pgaugu’l sawmill, because his father was a lum- ber manufacturer down on the War- wick river. He was the Captain of a company called ‘‘The Savage,” or “Savage's Rangers,” raised n War- wick county, and attached to the Sixth Virginia Cavalry. The duties of this command seemed to consist largely of scouting in the rear of the Confeder- ate army over a route that did not fail to bring them about four times a we.k to Burnt Ordinary. Here the Cap tain’s courtship did not seem to pro- gress toward a satisfactory copsum- hs | wounded. with: ““'Fore de Lor' Miss Harr't, of dat ar Cap'n Savage ain’t comin’ down de New Kent road witfauty hunder’ hoss sojers a-hind him, an’ he's jess a gwine to eat dem 'ere Yanks ober in de dogwood lot.” Aftor sifting the man’s story some- what, Miss Harriet deliberately walk- ed over to Captain Gross, commanding the Union men, and suggested: “‘If you don’t want to move your quarters to Richmond, Captain, I think you had better bid us good by and show yourself to the lower end of the Peninsula.” *‘For what reason?”’ “‘About three hundred Confederate cavalry under Captain Savage is the reason, and it is within three miles of this place now fortifying itself with supper for the attack.” *‘Much obliged to you, Misa Har- riet, and we'll fortify in the same way and wait for him.” Just before dusk Captain Savage drew his men up in line-of-battle and sent & Licutenant with a flag of truce to say that he was ready to accept Jap- tain Gross’ surrender. Captain Gross said he wasn't ready to surrender, and didu't intend to getready. The Lieu- tenant departed, and soon came the on-sot. Captain Savage charged with his whole force, intending to ride the Yanks down by weight of men and horses, Ho found himself opposed by only about twenty men, who as he ap- proached, ecattered like the wind to right and left, and he dashed on toward the little camp to find himself ina moment fired into from both sides with a deadly raking ac- curacy that human courage could not stand, and his men turned and fled back to the cover of the woods, pursued by the mounted squad they had first met and vanquished. Captain Savage regarded this as in the highest degree humiliating, be- cauze the idol of his hopes, he felt sure, was looking at him, and defoat in war is not believed to be condnetive to success in love, He rallied his men, and they made another charge* This time they were met by the Yanks in full cauter, and as the horses of the latter were fresh and strong from long rest and plentiful forage, they just ran over the road weary animals of the confederacy. Finding, after some hand to hand fighting, that they were getting decidedly the worst of it. avage's men, or at least as many of them as were able, and with all speed toward New Kent, leaving their leader lurilzhirty of their comrades on the tield. Oaptain Gross’ men at once pro ceeded to gather up the dead and Captain ~ Savage, quite severely wounded, was carried into Harpel's house, and bestowed in a room along with Lioutenant Carter of Captain Gross' company, who had a saber hole in his shoulder. Here both officers were nursed with care and their comfort looked after by Miss Harriet, But Oaptain Savage conceived before long that his Yankee neighbor was lgatti? more than his fair share of Miss Harriet's kindness and attention, and he became fear- fully jealous. The wounds of neither of the ofticers proved very trouble- some, and soon they were up wander- ing about the house, glowering at each other like a ocouple of thunder- storms. Lieutenant Carter had him- self carried over to his tent, where he caught a lively attack of fever for spite, and in three days had to be carried back to the house so crazy that he couldn't tell Harriet from the horae-block, eanwhile, Captain Savage had proposed to Harriet and mation, Harriet was candid with |asked the old man for her hand, and him, but not loving, seing refused by her and patronized “1 admire you and your horse, Cap- [ by him, had proposed to some of tain,” she admitted, ‘“‘but I dcicst| Harpel's negroes to carry her off, your cause and your course.’ This 'n; n;xouththo lntsur f tl woing, and thou oung Savago v s la:rlm:]ly in umgat.’;w made 1o pro- gress except backward. The mention of money brought thoughtfulness to Harriet. She knew that nearly all her father's money outaide of his property was invested with business men in Richmond. Though old Harpel loved the confed- much, he loved his money more, snd it did not take much argument on Harriet's part to convince him that it would be safer on the north side of Dol spes s polas ll b sould possible s ocoul colleot, and ing @ favorable op- portunity he sent it to an acquaint. ance in Wilmis » who in- vested it for him favorably. This was the luckiest movement that he .| dignified " |5F 23, sud hor father, full of yours Iwhumupon he found it advisable to | nccelerate his departure out of re- spect to the old man’s shotgun and bulldog, and reporting himself to Osgliu Gross he was sent a prisoner to Fortress Monroe, Lieutenant Carter and his fever oc- cupied Miss Harpel's attention for sowme weeks, when the fever gave u| the struggle and the lieutenant l;:; h;:ldto himself. At this m'n. Har- every appearance of a man who had to struggle to make both ends meet, When Oarter coolly asked him for the daughter, he rose up and peremptorily bid the audacious outh to take himself off. That the wvers contrived to steal the usual sad , wo doubt not. At any rate they came to an u tanding by some means, and a few days after company D was recalled, and Burnt Ordinary subsided into a loneliness - | that was vi nnl‘{uby an occasional raid or skirmish until the oclose of the war, Captain Bausge became a con- federste major, and Lieuten- ant Carter a Yankeo captain, Harriet Harpel ripened into self-reliant woman and t‘u restored prestage of his tav- ern, died in 1865. Left alone, Harriet leased the tavern toa man named Alexander, and retired upon tho in- come from the property and the money t:qviuuly investod by her father in ilmwngton, Del. soon as the mail facilities served, a correspon- dence between Hurriet and Captain Carter was inaugurated, which re- sulted in a visit from him and their marriage in May, 1866. Carter settled at Burnt Ordinary, and_being a_man of good business ability, opened a & country store with his wife's money, which, a8 the years wore on, became quite widely known as a very pros- perous trading place. Meantime Major Savago had shown himselt at Burnt Ordinary_ but once. When he heard that Miss Harpel was about to marry Carter he came up from his Warwick home and urged his old love, beseeching her to reconsider her action marry him, She flatly re- fused and they quarreled bitterly, and in departing he cursed the hour that ever ] e had mo: her, and prayed that might attend her union with the fornal Yankee nig. ger stealer.” 'lhen he left the coun- try, and for ten years the peninsula of Virginia knew him no more. The Carters were blessed in every- thing except children, of which they had none. Carter became a promin- ent and respected man in the county, and served a term in the Virgiia legislature, In the summer of 1876 Mrs. Carter, with a pair of horses and negro driver, made a carriage trip across the country to Wiliiamsburgh, remaining some days. While on the way home, while crossing the ‘‘Long Waste” swamps, a desolate and al- most uninhabited tract, the carriage was stopped by a rough-looking man who seemed all hat and beard, and who presented a villainous-looking pistol at the head of Aaron Wilson, one of the former Harpel slaves, now Mra, Carter's driver, Mrs. Carter was & woman of more than ordinary physical courage, and demanded of the intruder what he wanted. “‘I want you,” he replied, roughly. “You ought to remember me. You knew me well enough once to ruin my life, and now I want you to get out cf that and pay for it.” *You are Bert Savage, are ycu?” “I am what you have left of him. Don't you like the spccimen?” “I have no interest in you what- ever. Anything you have made of yourself is no concern of mine.” At this the rufflan, throwing the pistol down, seized Mrs, Carter and attempted to pull her from the car- riage. d Auron saw that now his chance had come, and jumping down he seized the pistol and with it dealt Savage u blow that laid him insensi- ble in the road, ““Oh! don’t kiil him,” screamed Mrs. Carter, and the negro reluctantly stayed his hand. By Mrs, Carter's direction, Aaron dragged the body to the side of the road and dashed some water over the face, which had the offect to restore the man to partial senaibility. He sat up, rubbed his head and stared stupidly at the car- riage, muttering incoherent oaths as drove away. Of this episode, known only to three people, no word was ever spoken for five years, and then it was too late for the disclosure to be of any service, Mrs. Carter had pledged Aaron Wil- son to secrecy, and the old man faith- fully kept his word. In September, 1879, "‘aptain Qarter, having business in Richmond, came home by the York River railroad, gettiug off at Eltbam Lauding, whence he deciared his intention of walking two or three miles to the house of & friend who would send him home He departed in the early dusk of the evening and was nover seen alive af- terwards, Months after his body was found by some negroes on a 'possum hunt, in a wilderness of scrub timber soveral miles from any road that could take him to his friend’s house. His brains had been beatan out with a club, but the object had evideutly not been robbery, as his money,watch and papers were still in the decaying cloth- ing. The euspense of his disappear- ance and the shock of his discovery were fearful to Mras. Carter, and it is probable that she now bitterly regret- ted that she had not disclosed her rencontre with Savage three months before. Now, however, she shid noth- ing, nor would ehe let old Aaron open his mouth, He buried her dead, and no conjecture pointed to the mur- derer, In May of last year (1881) Mrs. Carter was called to Richmond sud- denly on business connected with some property she had there, Mr. Alexander, who was still the tenant of the Burnt Ordinary tavern, drove her n the evening over to the house of a friend nearthe depot from which she was to start for the city the next moraing. In the dusk of the even- ing, near the end .of the lane, within two hundred yards of the friend’s house, he left Mrs, Carter, and that is tho last ever seen of her in life, A week passed by, and her friends at home, not hearing from her, wrote to Richmond and were informed that JACOBS TRADE o MARK “ll‘ " gor '4 - DERMHEREDY RHEUMATISM, Neuralgia, Sciatica, Lumbago, Bactnche, Soreness of the Ches, Gout, Quinsy, Sore Throat, Swell- ings and Sprains, Burns and ~.
