I ROM AN OLD SOLDIER. Union, R. F. 1). 5, May 8, 191(5. I often get letter from ladies asking mo if I know anything of their people in the war. I attended the old soldiers' meeting at Union last Saturday and it certainly was fine. Rev. Mr .Jones made an address to the soldiers and spoke of the battle of Sharpsburg, the Wilderness and 1 Chickamaugua and he said today is the (1th day of May?the day the battle of the Wilderness was fought and he said all who were in that battle please stand up. I stood and four more, but I did not know them. My friends have been asking me to write on the battle of the Wilderness. Gen. Grant consolidated his one hundred and fifty thousand men on the north banks of the river, no doubt he sought that place to crush Lee and Jackson while Longstreet was at Bristol, Term. He struck tents about the first of May and commenced his campaign. Gen. Lee ordered Longstreet's corps to come to him at once. They came by rail to Gordansville and marched through the country. Kershaw's Brigade marched all night and reached the battlefield and went right in the fight. They threw up some logs and chunks as breastworks. The Yankees would drive them back from their breastworks, then they would rally and drive the Yankees back. The Bratton brigade was about a mile from the battlefield when the fight began and they doubled quick and redoubled quick and threw everything down except their guns and ammunition and rations. We got there in the woods and formed a line of battle and were ordered forward. The 5th S. C. Regiment relieved the 15th S. C. The 5th Regiment threw out a line of skirmishers and drove to meet the enemy. I was on the skirmish line and got slightly wounded. The line of battle followed the skirmish lines and charged the enemies and took a part of their breastworks. The boys threw up their hats and hollered "Hurrah for South Carolina! Hurrah for the 5th Regiment!" J. B. Tracy.

Catarrh being greatly influenced by constitutional conditions requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally and acts through the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces of the System thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith i'n the curative powers of Hall's Catarrh Cure that they offer One Hundred Hollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials. Address: F. J.
