A Confederate Father and lion Stricken in
ltattle Attended by a Union Captain.
“if thine enemy hilutrer, feed him: if he
thirat, give him drink." is a text which
found many a fulfilment during our late
war—on both aides.
The following example in quoted from
the "History of the l0tith I’ennaylvanin
Regiment," and the occurrence took
place after the battle of Fair Oaks.
During the day Adjutant Pleis asked
Captain Ford to take a walk with him
over the field. They had not gone for
Tim???" before the adjntant lifllll:
"l “mwmfipi alii'lfi‘lfi. makers Inc nick
to see such terrible 'sighta. am...“ 1,,
The dead lay piled on top of each unit.
just as they had fallen, all mangled and
torn, while the groans of the Wounded
and dying was agonizing to hear.
So the adjutant turned back; but the
captain kept on, and soon came to an old
man sitting up against a tree, while
acroae his lap lay a young lad, whoee fine
features. pale face and light, waving hair
would readily have been taken for a‘
young girl's.
Addressing the old man, the captain
inquired hia regiment.
"Hampton Legion," he replied.
Beinguakml where he waa wounded, he
unbuttoned hilt coat and displayed an
ugly wound in lilil right arm.
The. captain asked the lad willit regi.
meni. he belonged to, and he replied,
”Hampton Legion.”
"Then you know each other?"
”Yea, he's my boy," said the old man:
“he fell, badly Wounded in the log. and I
came to help him and was hit myaclf. 1
have tied hie wound up as well as i can,
but we have both lost so min-h blood
that For afraid we can't stand it much
longer."
lieilu-n told how ho had dragged bill
boy to tile “'00, taken oil hia own shirt
anti torn it into atripu, tied up lilcwound
aa well all he could. and then iuui not
down, with the boy's bend ill bin lap,
waiting to be taken to the hospital.
The captain explained that we had our
own Wounded to look after first. and as
soon as possible they would receive utv
tontion.
He then made his way back to the hose
pital and related the cirrumetancra to
our surgeon, who gave him a stimulant
to take in them. Thence be Went to the
pump, but llurca guard was placed to
prevent any but surge-«Ina and nuraea
from taking Wltlt'l'. At first they would
not let l'nptnin Ford have any. but he
said: .
"i want thin for a i'onfrllerntc; fora
father and sun lying out in the woods,
both badly wounded and pI-rhnps dy-
lug.”
The guard illlmellintriy filled tho cup;
and acronlpmliwl by a nurse, whom the
aurgm-n had . otnilc-i.to go with him. the
captain returned to the woodu.
Raining the boy, he gari- ilinl half the
contents of the cup, and the- old man the
remainder. The father thanked ill!" and
