j CHAPTER ilL
A DEVOTED CONKKDKIUTK
On tho morning of thu general ad
vance of thu Army of time Cumberland
a drizzling rain Bet iu which lasted at
intervals during thu whole campaign
Day after daytime men tramped through
thu mlro often to lie down ut night
with no moans of lifting themselves out
of pools except by cutting the wet
branches from the tree and on these
making a lout In drenched clothes The
I artillery soon cut up tho roads so that
tho guns sank to tho hubs of tho wheels
I The right continued to march toward
I tho left and in thu direction of thu base
of the Cumberland plateau where Miss
I Betsy llaggs and time others were pass
i lug between thu lines The Unionists
wore moving ujwn gaps in tho foot
I
hills hold by time Confederate and noo
I essary to tho latter to prevent their CliO
odes gutting on their right and thus
comKdling them to leave their fortifica
tions at Tullahoma aud fight OU open
I I ground It was the day that tho Union men
i attacked these gaps that Miss Baggy
passed under Confederate protection
I and the faiTuor amid tho two young poo
I plo with him wuro also pursuing their
route south Fortunately for him tho
farmer being ou time Hank ot tho two
armies was not forced to pass over
roads cut up by either After Major
Ourko had administered tho oath riot to
divulge anything they had soon > con
cerning tho Union forces to the fanner
and tho young girl iu tho wagon with

Union or Confederate sympathies
Union
All right Go ahead
Leaving time picket they came to an
opening in the country which enabled
them to get a view of mho region lying
to the wust rime farmer though de
sirous of getting ou could not resist a
temptation to ruin III his horse and
watch the lighting or time distant uvi
denresof it that morning going on at
Hoovers Gap Volleys of musketry
were mingled with the deeper tones ot
C UIIOII Then the firing ceased for
awhile when the booms began again
continued und rapid A whito smoke
rose ubovu a ridge on which Confederate
camions weru shelling time advancing
Union troops on thu ground below
Souri Slack thought of the lives that
were passing from under that smoke and
covered her taco with her hands
When thu sounds ceased Farmer
Slack drovu ou and soon reached the
Confederate picket The party wore sent
III charge of u trooper to the headquar
tON of an otllcer commanding a body of
cavalry on thu Confederate extreme left
His headquarters were III a house beside
the road It had once been in the cu
ter of a neat country place The fences
the outhouses time walks bad all been
in excellent condition prior to the first
passage of troops Now of tho fences
there was an occasional upright post
left the walks were overgrown with
weeds and grass time outhouses had
nearly all been torn down The place
was u picture of desolation Neverthe
less the general who temporarily resided
there was making himself very comfort
able
ableTho wagon drew up before tho house
and tho conducting trooper sent in word
to the general that a party who had
come in from time Union lines ver >
waiting outside desiring permission to
go on couth An order cauio to send tho
party all inside
The three travelers entered tho house
to find a tall man with an iron gray
beard reclining in a rocking chair with
as much apparent unconcern as if war
worn limply a pastime
You have just couio from time CliO
mys lines I hoar ho said to tho
farmer
Vans sir
What forco did you see in tho re
gion through which you passed
Tho farmer explained that bo could
not answer time question inasmuch an
hu had been permitted to pass after tak
lug an oath not to give any information
Hui You are quite right not to
ausvfer under tho circumstances ob
served the general Did your daugh
ter take thu same oath
Yiuxs general said Sour
Surely they didnt administer an
oath to a boy of your ago ho said
turning to Jakoy
Beckon th thought I war too little
to swar said Jakoy Ho thrust his
hands in his pockets a sure sign thut ho
was steadying himself for a conflict of
wits and words Hut tho general was
not acquainted with the peculiar char
acteristics of Jakey Slack and prepared
to question him as unconcernedly as ho
would pump water from a well
What route did you come ho ask
ed of tho farmer
I met the children at Gallotin re
plied Slack I tiny om from thar
through Lebanon and Liberty
Soiiuy II said the general turning
to Jukey did you pass any troops or
the way
LoU
I
Infantry
Whats thet
Soldiers who walk and carry guns
Didnt see none b them kind
Did you see any artillery
Dont know what them uns air
Men with great big guns canuou It
No sir Didnt see no tillery
Then what you saw mnst have been

Didnt BOO none o them aims nuth

Tho general looked surprised
Then what did yon see Thats all
tho arms of tho service I ever heard of
and I am an old soldier
Critter companies
Oh I sect exclaimed the general
remembering the mountain Tennessee
alls name for cavalry How many sol
diem belonging to tho critter compa
nice as you call them did you sou
Waal I counted 20u thetas fur
as I got at countln in skulu
Souri was about to remind her broth
or that he had proved himself one of
tho best boys iu tho school at mental
arithmetic but desisted
Hml rime general thought a ray
went and beat a reveille with his fin
guts on the arm of his chair
What were they doing within the
Federal line just before you left the
outposts Waal I only noticed one man n bo
war doin comopn very partickuler
What was it
Ho war lookin at the sky through a
flat round thing what looked Hku u big
squashed apple
Not a fluldgloM was It
No sir Heckon twasnt thet
a thu man of high rank
Hockon ho war He bad stripes on
his arm

Tut tut ho wore chevrons He was
only a noncommissioned ofllcer Cant
you describe more nearly tho object
through which bu was looking
Waal I think I beam somouu call
it a Cllllcall
CllllcallNot
Not n canteen
Yes thets It
Tho general looked sharply at the
boy who looked stolidly stupid lie
determined to try another route through
which to lead Jakeys infantile mind
Weru tho troops you saw iu camp
or on time mrvrcli or in bivouac
Dont know what thet ar lost air
but the trees n brush war KO thick T
conldii see plain
Cant you tell mo if you saw any
infantry Soldiers who walk and carry
guns you know
I never looks at them kind o so
jets replied Jakey contemptuously
I only notices em when threTou
critters backs
That will do said the general
Then turning to a staff ofllcer near him
hu liuid
liuidCaptain
Captain you may pass these people
south and added in an undertone
Ride over to division headquarters and
say that nothing has yet been obtained
of thu enemys movements iu this vicin
ity by questioning citizens Only one
party has come througha farmer
ith his son and daughter The farmer
meld his daughter took an oath not to
give any information concerning the
dispositions of the enemy and tho boy
is profoundly stupid
There was u sound of hoofs without
mingled with the rattle of wheels
Looking through an open window an
ofllcer was seen to dismount and hand
u woman from a mud covered paint
rubbed buggy AH recognized Miss
Elizabeth Uuggs The general arose
from his chair and went out to meet
her at tho front door From there he
conducted her into a room whore they
could confer together alone
What luck
I struck their wires within their
lines midway between Murfreesboro and
MacMinnvillo at midnight and no one
was near I threw my wire over the
hue and made my connections with my
instrument I waited till nearly day
light before any messages of impor
tance came along though dispatches
were passing all the while At last one
came in cipher I took it down but a +
we havent tho I key fear it will avail
us nothing i
Let me see it said the general
Miss Uaggs handed him a piece of
paper oar which was written

The general read the dispatch over
carefully and then looking up at Miiu
UaggH remarked

I fear not without tho key It is
doubtless an important dispatch and I
shall send it at once to general bead
quarters If they can decipher it they
are welcome to do so I dont care to

Calling au aiddocamp tbo general
bade him carry tho message to the army
telegraph station a short distance to

General said Miss Haggs in an
undertone if you will let me have the
original or a copy I will try to decipher
it I may find a clew that will aid me
hereafter though I fear it will be too
late to take advantage of information
contained in this one
Certainly Lieutenant returu the
dispatch I have given you to this lady
after It has beet repeated
The ofllcer departed The general
turned again to Miss Baggs with a se
rious look
Doyou know that you are engaged
in a very hazardous service
Perfectly
And do you understand the penalty
if caught
Death I suppose
Theres no telling whether it would
be death or a long Imprisonment in the
case of a woman A wan would hong
Miss Baggs countenance changed
from an expression of Indifference to
one of the flashes of Ute superhuman
t
attributes that lurk within the human
toulAm
