He insisted on her shooting with him at

Of course this is sad for us to lose the one we
loved so dearly. It has cast a great darkness
over our lives, It is all I can bear, and I know
it is hard for you, for you and George bave loved
each other as brothers can. Do try and not feel

Fear Before the Vight.
Testimony differs as to the feeling of the
soldier on going into a fight. and the many
{experiences related by Grand Army men
to their always willing listeners show
that in their war histories there was no
uniformity of either feavor daring. The |
major of a New Hampshire regiment said:
“I always felt timid wien the shot began
to reach tis, but as soon as we got into
action I was carried away by excitement.
I am not usally a profane man. and |
have no recollection of talking roughly
to my (roons, vet a good many of thew
have assured me that all through a fight
I would swear like—well, like a trooper.”
Another. man, a colonel, said: It's:
all nonsense (0 say that aman doesn’t
feel afraid in the beginning of a fight and
all through it. Of conyse he does. He
has reason. Sherman said of General
Sumner that he was the only man who
grew bolder as he grew older, but the on-
ly man I ever saw who really seemed to
want to fight, and to enjoy it after he
was in it, was Custer.”—New York Sun.
