enough for Unnkins to send him nrenforwmenta. but Hankins did nothing of the kind. He watched the fighting from an eminence _and saw the remnant of Reckling's brigade driven like dust before a hurricane. The I'nlon army fell back to a stronger position. When quiet was restored Hunklns rode UP to Reckling and reprimanded him for not holding his position. Implying There Is little or 00 redress In the army against soch an Imputation by a superior officer, certainly not In- face of an enemy. Obe morning shortly after daylight Colonel Reckling rode up to Bla commander's • headquarters and. rousing the general, said: ysY' think the enemy la meditating an important move. If you will ride out ‘ with me to the picket line I'll show you

What I mean."

Hunklns proposed to send his" Chief of staff, hut Reckling Insisted that be should see for himself. Bo the genera! called his escort, and the two officers rude to tbe picket line. “We most go farther,” said Reckling. “I would suggest thst tbe escort remain here so as not to draw tbe fire.” '•But”— said the-general, showing extreme reluctance to go on. -General r exclaimed Reckling In feigned surprise. \ Tbe general dare not refuse with twenty cavalrymen looking on. He rode with bis Inferior a few hundred yards to a low fence, ovc* which Reek- ' ling Jumped his borac. Hunklna. knowing tbe eyes of tbe escort were ui*on him. dare not refuse to follow. He seas about to protest against, this approach to the enemy's rifles as unnecessary exposure when be noticed a curl on Reckling's Up. He saw the latter’s design, bnt he must either foUow or lose that respect of his men which was necessary to command. Trembling. A mlnle bullet sang between the two men. The general ducked. Another and another. Tbe colonel pushed on. the general a few paces behind him. More straggling shots. -I ace no change In tbe' situation.’ said tbe general. "I-et ua go back." “Not here." said Reckling: “not here Farther to their left. I think they are massing a force on our right. Just / they did tbe other day. They can’t get / at us on lour left for the river and tbe hill where we have thrown up the

earthworks.’

“But we are not going to our right We’re going straight toward their right

center."

“Well turn presently. “How much farther have we to go?" asked tbe general In a few mot “We must ride along In front of their line till we reach that wood

lea"

The general shuddered. Riding In front of their line meant certain death. “This Is suicide." be protested. “Come on." aald the colonel. (hitting spurs to hla horse. Heckling started straight toward (Jhe enemy’s linqt. At the same moment a storm of ballets whistled~by tbe two men. Hunkin* could not stand the test. He turned and rode back as fast ag hla horse could carry him. Bravery wins rvspect even from an enemy. The Confederates, wondering, watched Reckling coming. Presently be turned and rode slowly along the front of their line. Not « shot was fired. It was an eighth of a mile to rover, and aa the soldier passed over the distance aijd entered the wood ■ cheer went np from the Cnloo soldiers and the Confederates.'who were too admiring to shoot so gallant a man. When tbe general Joined bla escort be knew that hla military career bad ended. But bla aptitude for a different field saved him In that field.
