A SOLDIER'S MONUMENT.
A monument for tho aoMleral
And what will ye bulW It off
Can r build It of marble or brass or bronze,
OutlKstlnc tlm Soldiers' lowT
Can ye glorify It Willi Ifttfemts
As grand its their blood hath writ
From tbe Inmost shrine of this land of thlno
To the outermost verve of It?
And the answer oamei Wo would build It
Out of our Itopw made sure.
And out of our purest prayers and tears.
And out of our faith secure;
We would build It out of tho great whtto
truths
Their death hath sanctified,
And the sculptured forms of tho men In

And their faces ere they died.
And what Itcrolo figures
Can the sculptor carve In stone?
Can tho ihnrblo breast bo mado to bleed
And tho tumble lips to moan?
Can tho marbled brow bo fevered.
And the marble eyes be graved
To look their last, as tho flag floats past.
On the country they havo saved?
Arid tbe answer came: The figures
Shall all be fair nnd bravo.
And as befitting, as pure and whlto
As the stars abovo their gravo.
The marble lips and breast and brow
Whereon I he laurel lies
Bequeath tis right to guard the flight
Of tho old flag In the skies.
A monument for the soSllers,
Built of a people's love
And braeoned and decked nnd panoplied
With tho hearts ye build It of.
And see that ye build It stately,
In pillar and niche and gate.
And high in pose as tbe souls of those

A LOYAL DESERTER.
BT WILLIAM 0. PATTEN.
(Copyright, 1B03, by American Press Associa
tion.
IAj through the
lonn years the
grave of tho de
serter lay neglect
ed nnd unhonored
In the peaceful vll
lngo cemetery. No
stone bad been
erected to mark
tho spot nnd tell
who rested there,
nnd where once
hiul been n mound
of earth wna now
n long nnd narrow
hollow, overgrown
with weeds nnd
T tnneled crass.
That corner of the
cemetery was shunned ns If a blight of
shame wero on It.
With the coming of spring nnd the re
turn of each Memorial day a little remnant
of tho noblo army that bo gallantly fought
for the preservntion of tho Union gathered
in their uniforms and regnlln, their once
supple nnd sinewy bodies time scarred ns
Well ns battlo marked, and led tho solemn
procession Unit visited the cemetery and
did honor to tho departed veterans by plac
ing flowers nnd flags nbove each grave.
But, generous though these noblo old he
roes were, they could not forget or forgive
an act of downright disloyalty to the flag
they loved and venerated. The man who
lay in tho unmarked grnve had worn the
Federal blue, but with Hooker's rebuff nt
Chancellorsville ho had disappeared, and
later It somehow was reported he had ex
changed his weather beaten uniform of blue
for one of gray. He was not only n deserter,
but a traitorns well.
Little wonder that after the war was over
nnd peace declared, when he returned to his
toraer-WdtfioriilsHSld friends turned their
backs scornfully upon him, and his beauti
ful wife met him coldly. He soon vanished
again, nnd he staid nway until one dreary
winter's night some years later, when he
dragged himeelf back to his wife and home,
where he died In n delirium, raving of n
friend ho had wronged and of the battles in
which he had participated.
Aud so ho filled a dishonored grave. His
former comrades never spoke of him, but a
cround sparrow made her nest in the grassy
hollow, nnd sometimes in later summer
days a yellow breasted bird tossed on n
milkweed stalk that grew nbove the spot
where rested tho deserter's head, warbling
a purling little song.
One day In May, long years after the war
wag ended, a stranger came to the little
villaco and inquired for Robert alker.
The stranger carried nn empty sleeve and
had a wooden leg. He was told Robert
Walker had been dead and buried many
rears, nnd the village sexton obligingly of
fered to show tle man with the empty sleeve
to the grave.
"I reckon you're nn old vet," observed
theBexton as thoy moved toward the cem
etery, tho stranger stumping along at his
'side
: "I was in the war," acknowledged the
other.
"I thoucht so. Did you know Rob
Walker?"
"Yes."
"Well, I don't suppose you knew any
good of him?"
"On the contrary, I did."
"He was a deserter and turncoat."
"A deserter perhaps, but no traitor."
"W THIS BIB BTJHIAL SPOT?"
Wben they stood beside the grave, the
stranger uttered an exolamaMon of aston
'lsameut. "Ib this M burial spot?" ho oried. "ho
stone nothing but a sunken hollowl lias
he no friends left to do him honor?"
A nl the sexton answered. "Not one."
"Is Ills grave never decorated Dy ms ror
or comrades?"
The man with the empty sleeve pressed
his Up toKftbur fur a mowaot nnd then
declared: ,
"They sha'l diffnte it this year, and
BobwtWs i-i'. all a honored as he de
snrvea." T . " hesitated, looking doubt
(idly, almost Ma.tl.hily, at toe ma sexwm.
"Whatnaa bwnrae of bis wife?"
"Da yon see that lonely little cottage over
beyond the stream?"
"104.
, "She liven there "
"I suppose she Is married again?"
The sexton shook bis shaggy bead. "No.

At tho Opening of the war Agatha Car
len, then but 10 years of age, was the bello
of O She hail scores of admirers,
among whom wero two young men who
were friends and comrmles as well as ri
vals. They were HobertVnlker nnd John
Marlon, nnd her Interest 'in them seemed
about equally divided, so It was sometimes
remarked that, although they were In the
lend of nil other suitors, she knew not
which to choose.
Tho first call for volunteers came, nnd
John Marlon resolved to enlist nnd go to
tho front, lie urged Robert to accompany
Mm, nnd nt first tho latter seemed enthusi
astic, but his enthusiasm finnlly evaporat
ed, and wben Marlon was surely enlisted
ho decided not to go. In his heart he had
resolved to Btay nt home and win the charm
lmt Airnthn for his wife.
Hut Jnck Marlon had no thought of leov
lng tho field to his friend and rival without
learning from Agatha's lips just how he
stood In her esteem, so he sat down nnd
wrote her n letter, in which he told her of
his lovo nnd his hops to make her his wife
when ho returned from tho war. As it hap
penod that Agatha's mother did not look
favorably on Jack nnd had forbidden his
visiting her daughter,, ho ventured to ask
tho beautiful girl to meet him at a certain
old onk treo at 0 In tho evening,
"If sho comes," ho thought, "I shall
know Bhe loves mo and will wait my re
turn. If sho fails to como"
He could not bear to think of that.
Long beforo 0 o'clock in tho evening Jack
wns waiting beneath tho old oak. Ills heart
was fluttering with hope and fear, for he
felt that his whole future depended on the
result of the next hour.
Tho moon camo up over tho eastern bills
and flooded the vlllago with its whito light
Tho frogs were peeping plaintively down in
tho marsh, and a brooding sadness seemed
In tho nlr. From his position beneath the
oak Jack could see tho slender church spire
rising high above tho other buildings, and
ho listened for the striking of tho village
clock.
It camo nt last, and Agatha had not ap
peared. He uttered n smothered groan,
but still he waited with ever Increasing Im
patience and dread. Tho minutes seemed
Interminable, nnd yet he lingered at the
treo until tho clock had tolled the hour
twice moro.
Hleven o'clockl Ho no longer hoped. She
would not come, and he felt that he had re
ceived his answer. His.faco was hard nnd
stern when he went down tho gentle slope
and vanished In tho shadows below.
That night, without bidding farewell to
any of his old friends, Juck Mnrlon depart
ed to Join his company. Whtn noxt heard
of, ho wns nt tho front.
And when he next hoard of Agntha, she
had become tho wife of his old friend, Rob
Walker. From that moment his heart
seemed turned to stone, and he fought Uko
n tiger, seeming to court danger by rafch
boldness that won the admiration of ins
comrades and seemed destined to bring him
promotion or death.
Hooker's great strategic movement in
crossing the Rappahannock and attacking
tho Confederate army on the upper flank,
taking Lee by surprise, hnd proved a wretch
ed failure through his Inability to carry out
what ho had himself planned. Having tho
advnntago of a superior force and tho better
position, after four days' fighting, Hooker
decided to retreat across the river and give
up his great project, which even then might
have been carried to a satisfactory nnd suc
cessful termination.
Tuesday night, May 5, brought a pelting
rainstorm that soonswelled the Rappahan
nock so that tho approaches to tho bridges
were overflowed, and It began to look as if
the retreat would become nu impossibility,
One of the bridges, however, was taken
down nnd used to pieco out tho others, and
the storm and darkness covered tho unex
pected movement of the Federal forces.
It was closo to ulghtfall when a strag
gling Union soldier who was forcing his
way through tho dense wilderness south of
Ely's ford on the Rnpidan paused nnd
looked Into tho face of a comrado who lay
Kroanlnc on tho ground, his leg pinned be
neath a fallen tree. The rain was beating
down on that upturned face, and the gloom
was growing dense there in that tangled
thicket, but tho straggler seemed to recog
nize his unfortunate comrade, for ho fell
back, crying hoarsely:
"Good GodI Jnck Mnrlon!"
The man on tho ground opened his eyes.
"Who speaks my name?" he faintly
asked.
The other seemed for the moment on tho
point of fleeing from tho spot, but if such
were his impulse he held it In check, drop
ping on his knees.
"Don't you know me, Jnck?"
The wounded and helpless man started
up, peering sharply iuto the questioner's
face.
"Rob Walker!" be cried. "You you
here?"
Then he sunk down, with a moan of pain,
for he had a bullet wound In one arm, and
ho had given his entrapped'and crushed leg
a painful twist.
''You are surprised to see me," snld
Walker, with a forced calmness. "I have
been wearing tho blue more than thrco
months."
" What took you into tho nrmy? Agatha"
Marlon stopind speaking, a great fear
clutching at his heart.
"She Is well," assured Walker, but his
voice sounded strange nnd harsh, "Let me
sen If I can move this tree nnd release your
leg."
"Never mind, Rob," came faintly from
thn unfortunate soldier's lips. "This en
gagement finishes me. My left arm Is
broken, and the tree has ruined my right
leg. Better leave me for the Johnnies to
finish. I have nothing to live for nnywny."
The words were spoken with great bitter
ness, and they cut to the very heart of tho
man who heard them. With all his
strength, he sought to remove the tree, but
he could not stir It. He uttered an ex
clamation of ulsappolntment.
"WbntoanI do?" he cried.
"Leave me," repeated the other. "Where
were you hurrying when you found me?"
"To join tbe others in the retreat across
the river, which has already begun. My
regiment was out to pieces day before yes
terday, and I hare been hiding much of the
time iinco then almost within the Confed
erate lines. I fancied I had obtained In
formation tbat would !e of Importance to
' General Hooker, but he refused to hear it,
retreat having been decided on."
'"4 Is growing dark," said lack Marlon
calmly. "If you remain here longer, you
may not be able to get over tho river, and
you will fall into the hands of the rebels.
I havo nothing to live for, but you have a
wife."
For a few seconds Walker stood In si
lence, and then he poke (alteriugly, sadly:
"I have a wife, but she should be yours,
Jack. StopI You must listen, for I am
going to free my soul. You were amazed
(o learn I had volunteered. I did so be
cause Agatha has discovered what a mis

never reuoneu uer. That is wny sue am

Tho wounded roan bad lifted himself by
an alincfct superhuman effort, and his
great dark eyt j showed plainly in the midst
of his pallid face. Tbe false friend could
not look into those eyes, and he turned his
bead away, the gathering darkness hiding
bis face.

He paused.
"Go on," hoarsely commanded tho
wounded man.

"Her scorn and contempt drove me Into
the nrmy. Bho told mo sho had always

"D you, you deserve It!" cried tho
helpless soldier as he wink back supinely.
For some moments nil was silent save the
steady boating of the rain. Then Walker
said:
"I am going to try to find an ax and cut
that tree. The surgeon can fix you up, nnd
you may pull through. As for me, I'll fight
It out till dropped by n rebel bulletl"
He turned and disappeared in the thicket.
More than an hour passed beforo ho re
turned, dui-kness hnvlng fallen. Ho called
to the wounded soldier, nnd Mnrlon an
swered. When ho camo up,.ho had an nx,
and he began on tho log immediately.
The darkness, however, wns bafiling, nnd
ho could not oeo where to plnce his blows
effectively. ThU delayed and botheredhlru
for hours, but ho finally succeeded in cut
ting tho tree nnd dragging it from tho leg
of tho friend lie lind betrayed. Then ho
lifted Jnck Marlon in his arms mid sought
to carry him from the thicket.
Tho night wns murk with driving rain
and tho tangled thicket almost impassable.
For bom's Walker staggered aimlessly on
with his burden, now and then pausing to
rest. Not many words pasted between tho
two, for Murlon was in a semlunconscious
stato tho most of the time.
It was near morning when Wnlker reeled
out of the woods nnd camo to tbo river.
Then a cry of despair broke from his Hps,
for the Ilocd had swept away two-thirds of
the pontoon bridge.
"Jack," said Walker ns ho put down his
burden, "we're left. I don't know how you
feel, but I have no fancy for a rebel prison.
There is only one chauco for us, and that Is
to get out of this locality, find some dead
Johnnies and stvnp clothes with them. If
it works, you will go to tho hospital, nnd
you can toll any kind of n story you please.
I'll risk but I can He my way through,
though I may have to sack a rebel musket
till I can give them tho slip,"
When Lee advanced to the attack on the
following morning, he was astonished to
discover the Federaltroops hnd retreated
beyond tho swollen river. As Wnlker had
predicted, Jack Marlon was picked up and
sent to the hospital. Ho did not havo to
mako an explanation, for ho was delirious
and remained so for a long time. When he
recovered, he found ho wns minus nn arm
and a leg. He was shrewd enough to still
keep up a pretense of crazlness, nnd when
Leo's nrmy moved northwnrd In Juno ho
wns left at n pleasant farmhouse, where ho
was tenderly cared for.
Rob Walker carried a Confederate mus
ket for n time, but ho finally escaped into
tho Union lines. There ho found he was
branded as n deserter, which forced him to
enlist In a new company and under a false
name. Ho fought bravely through the rest
of the war, continually courting death, but
coming out unscathed In the end.
But the shameful brand of deserter was
on his name, and when he appeared at his
old homo not even his wife would listen to
his story. So he turned nwny and only
came back when death had fastened Its re
lentless grasp upon him. His wife had
cared for him during his bust moments, but
no one knew the wholo truth, and bo filled
an unhonored grave.
Jnck Mnrlon knew Rob Walker still
lived. Having no friends or relatives for
whom he cared, and not daring to remnln In
tho same country with the woman ho loved,
as she was tho wife of another, fancying
himself a physical wreck that must bo ro
pulstvo in any woman's eyes. Jack Marlon
went to Australia. There lie became a sheep
rancher, ut which business he prospered
aud grew wealthy.
After long years he wondered If Rob and
Agatha were still living, nnd n great long
ing led htm back to his old home. He vis
ited the cemetery nnd Robert Walker's
grave, nnd then he crossed tho stream and
rapped at Agatha's door.

"I knew you would," wns her reply. "I

Tho wholo of G knew tho true story
of tho deserter In a few days. They nlso
knew John Marlon had returned, for ho
went around among his old comrades and
told them how they had misjudged Robert
Wnlker.
When next Memorial day camo round, ns
It shortly did, tho deserter's grnve was no
longer a hollow overgrown with grass and
weeds. A sodded mound had been built,
and a mnrhle shaft stood at tho head of tho
gravo, bearing tho name of the dead soldier
nnd a record of his faithful services for his
country.
John Mnrlon was with tho noblo veterans
who covered Robert Walker's gravo with
flowers. Alt the rancor had passed from his
heart washed away by tho years for ho
knew his former friend hod suffered bitter
ly for the wrong he had done.
On tho apex of the marblo shaft a yellow
breasted bird paused for a moment to trill
a song of joy and peace, nnd across tho
grave a reunited man nnd .woman looked
deep Into each other's eyes.

On one occasion, while executing a change
of base, our mall facilities became demor
alized, and for some days we did not tret a
letter. At every opportunity the boys, who
had become quite nervous over the pro
longed delay, would appeal to the good
chaplain for a letter from home. Falling
to get one, they Invariably began to flro
questions ns to tho cause of tho failure or
endeavor to get somo explanation. It was
nf course part of tho business of tho chap
lain to comfort or encourage the men, lie
did nil he could in this direction, but in the
army patience soon ceases to be n virtue,
even with preachers.
The chaplain became tired of answering
so matiy questions. Tho same stereotyped
reply, day after day, "I do not know any
thing about tho mails," finally irritated
him so that he shut himself up In his tent
and refused to see any one. lie was ad
vised to place n printed notice on his quar

inquirers could teofor themselves and not
annoy him. He finally procured tho top
