Story of Civil War (Continued From Page by all. In one of these clearings xonte half dozen miles from Decatur, the county seat, nestled a little cabin—surrounded by such buildings of logs as careful housing of animals and feathered things made necessary- and therein lived a middle aged pioneer and his wife and five littk* children, the eldest of whom had burely passed the age of ten. They were successful, as pioneers were rated successful, careful management and skillful labor had rewarded them with progress. But, alas, the was was on. The able bodied unmarried men were at the front. The married men had not been called and notwithstanding double effort the land was showing cruel neg lect. Lincoln needed more men, the <all was Insistent, still he was reluctant to summons the heads of families, knowing their great need at home. This pioneer of ours was a real patriot. Ho loved his family, but his! country's need stirred every fibre of his being. His duty in the wilderness seemed to c hain him, and so you see, he was as a soul divided. And so the months bad passed and I all that while the wife had sensed his i struggle*, yet she held her peace to let his determination come from his own conscientious soul and whatever it might be she bravely would abide. The day of great decision came. The pioneer had waded a toilsome journey to the county seat for supplies and the news from the front that he heard there demanded of him no more delay. Back over those lone-1 some miles he tramped with a high resolve. With sorrowing eyes he stopped at the edge of his clearing and surveyed his home. Here was his wife and little ones. Here the fruits of hard «and bitter toil. Here was ‘ slowly growing into plenty and com-! fort the happy hopes of two stout i and prayerful hearts. Must he leave all now? Was his country's call greater than his bounden duty to his family and to his task? The decision had been made and he . did not hestitate. With clear conviction but with sinking heart he entered his door. "'Mother, I shall enlist, ] the country needs me, I must go." | "Very well, Charlie.” said the noble[ wife, calm and unastonished. "It is a| duty, you need never worry, we shall! get along.” "It is a duty, we shall get along." Oh! we of little faith! Bid we know : that such as these were of the stuff; that made our Nation’s greatness possible? Three long weary years dragged slowly by and one day this pioneer of ours in faded blue, with knapsack on his back and an honorable discharge in his pocket, entered his cabin door. Wife and children well, praise Almighty God. Father had withstood the dangers of the fields of battle. Mother had withstood the dangers of the wilder nes*. For which one of these dare we claim a greater glory? Just a little hit of pioneer life, my friends. We have not told this story to preach, nor Instruct, nor counsel nor sadden We have only told this story to remind us, perhaps, that deep In America's wilderness in the days of long ago. lived and had their being glorious Houle whose lives were as epic poems and whose love of country. love of honor, love of the Mas I ter's golden teachings, must have surely "warmed the heart of God."
