Tuey read and criticized oach other's offorts humorously for some time, when General Lytle said with ugrave smile: “Reealf, T shall ne poem.’! “Nons live to writ 0. 8 hing War. lit- one every ove cir- was 2 tont with G tho battle, er livo to finish that will his, tyou said volume d the gen was speaking Lo you a feeling came ov snddenly, which is startling than prophcey, that I€hall bo killed in tomorrow’s fight.” Colonel Realf asked him to define this feel- ing, and be said: ©As I was talking to you 1 saw the green hills of Ohio as they looked when I stood Thoy bogan 1o recede from me and as thoy disappeared tho me like the light- never seo them tas 1 more among thow, in & weird way conviction flashod through ning's shock that I should again.”’ Genoral Lytie was & native of Oufo, and dearly loved his birth-state. Colonel Realf laughed at his fri d, and ral liod him upon his superstition, but uekuow edgged afterwards that ho became 50 thrillsd himself with an unnatural fear that he bogged the general to finish the poem before he siept, that such fine work might not be lost to the world. In the small hours General Lytle awakened his friend from the slumber into which he’ nad fallen, to read to hum that beaatiful poe which must 1ivo as long as our literature sur viy Twagine the seeno. The Lwo men united ty the bonas of frieadship, of congenial tastes, both ready and_ willing to face death on the movnine in its divest form, seanning, by the light of thow tent lantern, each other's fo. uros, woen the fnished pocm had been rewd aloud Colonel Realf said that with tears, but the gener as he placed the manuscri lny dowa to his last nizit's rost upon carth Before dawn enme tho call to arms. When Realf next saw his friend ho lay cold in doath among the heaps of slain. Then he thought of the poew, and, searching the pocket where be had seen him place it, drew it forth, und forwarded it to Gouworal Lytle's friends with his other offects.
