Girl Who Deserves a Peaslna.
lastweek lwent to see myfriend the
colonel, a Virginian, who was a distin-
guishedofllcer on the side of the south.
Sines the war his duties as consulting en»
_ glneerhsve taken him all over the coun-
“ try, and, being a close observer, his opin-
ionsare entitled to respectful considers-
thm. Aswesat smokin on the wide pi-
ma and watching the wing moonlight
gradually discovering: the grounds of the
adjoining mansion, I saw a number of la.
dies looking eastward and heard them
commenting in low, melodious voices on
the glories of the night.
“Four maiden sinters," whispered the
colonel, and they are the owner! and. with
the servants, the sole occupants of that fine
old mansion.”
“It is evident that your wife has l‘lll‘
hounded faith in you,” I laughed, “or she
would not leave you alone in this neigh»
borhwd."
“She is a good friend of the widows and
she feels that I am quite safe with them
within call." said the colonel.
P‘But I thought you suidthcy were maiden
sisters!”
“So I did, and when I said ‘widows’l
meant widows by brevet. 'l'hose ladies are
nowan forty and fifty years of age.
Friends tell me that asgiris they were very
pretty. They are the best educated women
ever met. but they are neither pedantic
nor miaanthmpic. They are above want.
But their husbands were killed”—s
“Their husbands killed?" l interrupted’
”Yes, killed in the war. but nliof them
run not know it. Let me explain. North
and' south there were killed in battle or
died of disease fully 500.0(1) men, not one~
tenth of whom were married. 0! the men
atthofront who bore the brunt of battle
fully nine-tenths were under thirty years
of age. Now it is a law of nature that
every male must have his. mate, and every
man who is killed or whodies prematurely
and unmarried forces some woman insome
place to remain single. This subject in—
terests me. and so I have made a study of
It. I started out with a theory tuaccount
for the number of single women over forty
whom I meet with nnvarying regularity
in the south as well as in the north, and
my theory is correct; that iswhy I call
them, not old maids. but “widows by bro-
'“.7 I!
“It is true that many of the widows by
brevet may never have met the man they
might have married had there been no war,
but in the great majority of cases they
knew the man, for they had been neigh—
bors. friend‘s and schoolmates. l wuss sinv
gle man when in i561 I took command of
my troop at Staunton. 'a. 0f the no men
inthccompany there was not one mar~
lied. I was then twentyfive and was the
oldest man in the troop. Our youngest
men’were about eighteen, but I was told.
and I believe it, that from the captain
down every man who rode with us for
Bull Run that Juiyunoming had a sweet
heart and was engaged.
"When the war ended I checked ad with
afriend the original muster roll of that
company. Thirty-one survived. The rest
had gone down before the bullet or the
more fatal disease of the mmp. But that
meant eighty girls in and about Stannton
whose sweethearts went away to die.
There never was a soldier. worth the lead
that killed him. that didn't have some
woman at home, mother, sister or sweet
heart. oftener all three, to mourn his
takinaoff. The bullet seldom stopped in
tbebrain orbresst of the man it struck
down on the battlefield, but winged its
way over river and hill to find its final
resting place in a woman's heart. But oi
all the people who have suffered by the
war, the bmet widow most excites my
sympathies.
"ldonot think I regard her from the
standpoint of a sentimentalist'. but I felt
when eougress was looking about for
mouthing to pension, that it would have
been a stroke of statesmanship and an
evidm of chivalry had the brevet widows
been pensioned. You laugh! Will you let
the cite a cue in point?
”I know right herein New York state a
lady who deserves a pension for her brevet
condition for more than do manyof the
widows of full rank. This lady was en-
gaged tohemarried toayonngmanm
