PAGE SIX irv ti A SOLDIER'S EASTER MORN By MLQUAD :ilp|a Copyright, 101C, by the MeClure Newspaper Syndicate. We who beld the south cud of the bridge—a picket of a hundred men— were_ cooking our suppers when seu try fired bis musket to give the alarm, nod next moment we caught sl&tit of horsemen on the turnpike beyond tbe bridge. "Fall in! Fall in!" shouted our offi cer fu Wild excitement. Up on the hillside a thousand men. women and children looked down and held their breath and felt tbe blood tingle to their finger ends. They could see the loug line stretching back for half a mile—600 men to 100—and, though they were our enemies, they felt pity for ns. "Steady, now, and Are low!" There was a crash and a roar of iron shod feet as the first squadron struck the bridge, and then a hundred jets of flame leaped forth to meet the troopers, and a hundred bullets led the Jets. DoWn went horses and men— dowif In one great heap of dead and dying wiiic-k other horses could not leap oler—and w* ros4 up and swung our hats and cheered. Up cn tbe hill side men turned pale, women wept and children cried out In horror at war's spectacle. We beard the enemy's bu /jyles blow the order to retreat and dis mount, and then wejooked to our offi cers fdr orders to fan back. "Hold the bridge to tbe last!" bad been the order'to the captain, and he meant to dbey to .the'letter. The smoke of our volley still floated lazily over the town when we heard the tramp, tramp, trdmp of soldiers' -footsteps an the flinty road, and be tween the chinks of the barricade, we saw lines of dismounted men coming forward at a swinging pace. A mo ment 1 ffter it was double quick, and as we opened a scattering Are they reach ed the heap of dead tend dying and made a barricade of 1t. Five—ten—fif teen minutes of sharp firing,'in which tliree or four men were killed on both sides, and then the enemy' swarmed oyer the barricade and charged. Tbe long, narrow bridge was like a tunnel. Tli^y wore crowded together, and our bullets could not go astray. A crash of musketry—a great puff of blue black smoke—and then all was silent—all but the gobs of women uud the wuils *of children on the hillside. It was war. •but only a skirmish. Tbe living and -/unhurt regained shelter of the bftrrl cade, and ten minutes later tbe enemy 4008 crossing at the fords above and below, and we were being fired on from in front and on both flanks. Then the order came to fall back. There had been a hundred of u# at the bridge. Only seventy retreated up the hillside, sullenly, grudgingly and fir ing as we went, and the noncombat ants scattered to right and left and cried out as the bullets whistled over their heads or plowed up the ground at tbeir feet. We fought from behind the gtiJtte walls, from behind houses and stores and barns aud sheds. We stung the pursuing enemy at every turn and left bis deod on^every rod of the open streets. By and* by, as we fought sin gly or In groups and when our dead and wounded were everywhere, there came the order: \To the church! To the church! Itauy on the church!" Same one led the way—all others followed. On the crest of the hill was the old stone church, built long before any one dreamed of fratricidal war, For half an hour peace reigned. The enemy was gathering up the wounded —friend and foe alike-and carryiug them into the quaint old houses to be cared for by tbe frightened and sob bing womfen. For half an hour, and then the truce was broken and carbines volleyed and^fbe bullets thudded against the heavy doors and flew iu at the windows and were buried in the walls and ceiling, beam and joist. We fought back—we killed and wounded. An hour went by aud then there were only thirty of us living. Surrender would have been honorable, but no one thought pf surrender. By and by the sun went 'down and darkness fell. Some rested while others fought on. •but as we rested aud fought there was fja feeling of awe over all Men uttered shriek as the bullets Struck them— |§erled out Just once. Then the awe of "{God came upon them and they were •^sllett, or If tliiey Wept aiid prayed we fpUd iiot heiir them. Until midnight no »£jE-'n rfotfc slept. Then came silence and .j 'A'^ipeace and men fell down and closed ]V^the,r fey**"#* war and its hor "4", ^jrovB and dreamed of happy homes far ,i'away ». Then the impatient enemy made a ""(^'sudden rush upon us iu the darkness, '•^aiiii in an iiu'-tuut war had returned ^and death was stalking abroad again. hy'It was a fierce attack, but we repelled '/it and'sank down once more, and when our eyes opene again daylight »bone 4it the- broken window.. Hark! It ,Hs the.bell abote us ringing out tilad 'notes of Easter inornlug. In a little /room to the left of the altar Is a man "jlulliiig at the hope. We stafe at him. And when he'has pulled tlie "rope a hundred times lie comes down aud tears the barricade away from the doors and throws them wide o|en, say ''Jng never word to ns—we raising no hand to restrain h'.in. "Christ is risen! Peace ox curtlj and good will to men!" And so it was peace and good will. Hands were held out to us—heads were uncovered—kind words were spoken. Two hundred men lay dead and wound ed—half of them our own. a.*# "GET HIM DEAD OR ALIVE!" Copyright by Mutual film company.
