THECAPTAIN'S
WJFE
By M. QUAD
Copyright. 1914, by Associated Lit
erary Press.
"I ain't tniiuliu' other folks' business
nor never was," said the third sergeant
as he placed a skillet of bacon on tho
winter hut fireplace, "bnt I'll go as
far as to say that it don't look right"
"Of coursc ft don't," said the second
sergeant.
"What you fellows blowiu' about?"
asked the orderly sergeant as he came
in for fire to light his pipe.
"You wouldn't guess in four years'
time, and I won't keep yon shlverln'
and tremblin". The captain's wife has
come!"
"And we was sayinV said the sec
oud sergeant us be lifted his eyes frotn
the coffee cup—"we was sayin' that It
wasn't discipline and didn't look right.
Jest think of a woman down here."
"By gusli!" whispered the orderly as
he sat down to his smoke.
"Waal, what >ougjin' lodo'bout It?"
asked the third sergeaut after a pause.
"Duuno."
A month liud passed, and no calami
ties bad occurred. Some of tbe men
began to breathe easier and to won
der if they hadn't misjudged the kind
faced and smiling little woman who
was sacrificing a good deal to be with
ber husband for a few weeks.
It was a cavalry command, and ev
ery pleasant winter's day the captain
and his wife bad a gallop over tbe
highways. One (lay an engineer was
dispatched to see about repairs to a
bridge spanning a creek flowing
through the neutral ground between
tbe armies, and the orderly sergeant
of Company I) was detailed with ten
men as an escort. The bridge was |
reached and inspected, and tbe engi-;
neer and his escort were ready for j
their ride back when there came n
sudden alarm. Half a mile down the:
road, where Captain Shattuck and bis
wife had debouched from 11 crossroad
while taking an afternoon gallop, they
had run full lilt against a Confederate
cavalry scout. The enemy had shout
ed to the captain to surrender, and as
he wheeled bis horse to get away n
bullet brought him out of the saddle.
Ilis wife would have pulled up her
steed, but he took the bit in his mouth
and was beyond control. As she went
flying up tln> road the scouting party
followed. They knew of tbe small de
tachment of Federals at the bridge
and were hoping to make a surprise.
"It's the captain's wife, and the
Johnnies are close behind her!" shout
ed the sergeant as the woman came
into view with a great clatter. "Open
ranks and let her through and then!
close tip and give 'em hail Columbia!" I
With a rush and a clatter the horse;
of the fugitive passed the blue clad
troopers, but came to a dead halt a
few rods beyond and turned about. A '
volley from tbe carbines checked the'
pursuers for the moment, but it was
seen that they were strong enough to
break through, and the sergeant gave
the order to fall back to an abandoned
log house a quarter of n mile in the
rear.
".Men." exclaimed the woman as she
looked from man to man. "do you
know that your captain is back there.'
wounded and a prisoner? Are you go-'
ing to leave him there?"
"It's too bad. ma'am, but they are ;
three 10 one. replied me sergeant. 1
"We'll be lucky if we ain't killed or
gobbled up before help comes."
"But I'm going to ride back!" she :
cried ns her p:ile face flushed and her
voice had a thrill to it. "If yon won't
go with me to rescue .vour captain I'll
let tliem take me prisoner and go to
Richmond with him."
"Ileavens. ma'am!" hoarsely whis
pered the sergeant, with admiration in
his eyes "But we'll have the captain
or die! How far down the road was
It?"
"Not over half a mile."
"And how many rebs in the party?"
"Not over fifty."
"Fifty rebs and ten of us! We'll |
never do it. but we'll die for the cap
tain! Into your saddles, boys! You
ride on toward camp with the engi
neer. ma'am!"
"Not a foot. I'm going with you.
Some one give me a revolver."
"By twos—right wheel!" shouted the
sergeant as he handed her his navy
and drew his saber. "Now, then, ride |
through or over Ihem and don't stop j
this side of tlie captain or the devil.1" |
It was a curious spectacle the gray j
clad soldiers witnessed—a woman rid
ing at the head of that charging !
squadron, a woman with white face ;
and glittering eyes, who held her reins j
in one hand and used the pistol with j
deadly effect with the other. Through
the thick of them followed the ten,
and. fearing that the alarm might
have already reached the Federal
camps, the Confederates disappeared
into the woods instead of pursuing.
Down there beyond the bridgtj the cap
tain was lying 011 the ground with a
bullet in his shoulder and three men
guarding him. The cavalcade swept
up to them and surrounded them, and
there were three prisoners instead of
three guards.
"Lord. sir. excuse me. sir, but it was
the captain's wife who did it all,"
said the sergeant as he returned to the
colonel "She not only saved her bus
band from I.ibby prison, but we might
all have been wiped out if we'd made
a fight for it at the old house."
That evening the orderly said to the
second and third sergeants. "When you
finish your grub rout out the boys, for
we're goin' to swing our hats and give
three cheers and a tiger for the cap
tain's wife."
