War Story Movie Men Overlooked.
During the Civil war Charles W. Hubner, an Atlanta Pioneer who is still with us, was a Confederate soldier in the First Tennessee regiment. His father, John Adam Hubner, was a federal soldier in an lowa regiment. Father and son were fighting on opposite sides. Miss Ida Southworth ‘was the fiancee of Maj. Charles Hubner. She was a volunteer nurse during the war. At the battle of Shiloh the elder Hubner was seriously wounded, and it became her duty to attend him, but she did not know who he was. After the war, when she and Maj. Charles Hubner were married, she spoke of nursing a Hubner, who was a Union soldier. For the first time she learned that her Union patient was the father of her Confederate lover.—Atlanta Constitution.
