Belle Saves Her Home Her attitude toward the Invaders of Martinsburg resulted In the Federal troops determining to raise the St irs and Stripes over the Boyd home. Belles mother declared, that every member Of her family would die before they would permit that, whereupon a soldier, who is said to have been intoxicated; .'struck heij to the floor. He was promptly shot down by the daughter. In retaliation the threatened to burn the house but Belle hastened to the Union commander and by his orders the home was saved. Soon afterwards Belle took advantage of the opportunity presented by her position within the Federal' lines to begin her activities as a spy. Her first attempt, however, was a failure.

The negress was captured and the message she carried traced to Belle Boyd who was arrested and taken before a Union colonel. That officer, probably Impressed by her charms no less than his subordinate, contented blmseljf with reading her the articles of war about spies instead of shooting her. He released her, warning her, however. that she would not escape so easily the next time. Undaunted by this experience Belle continued her work as a spy whenever the opportunity offered. She constantly furnished valuable information to Gen. Stonewall Jackson and Gen. J. E. B. Stuart while they were operating in the Shenandoah Valley and in one instance site is believed to have saved Jackson from a disastrous defeat 11 r , Belle Is Found Guilty On one occasion she entrusted a message to a supposed Confederate soldier who turned out to be a Union spy and who took the message to General Shields. Belle was arrested, taken Ferry and then to Washington where she was confined In the Old Capitol prison. She was tried by court martial, found guilty, but after an imprisonment of several months was given her freedom through an exchange of prisoners. As a matter of fact, the record of her various arrests is none too clear. And for some mysterious reason she was repeatedly released although she was known to be a dangerous spy. Some of her exploits verge upon the legendary so that it is impossible to set down any complete record of her life as a spy with any assurance that it is accurate in every detail. About the only thing that is certain is that lier spirit was never broken by any of her experiences and that she did more first-cladefying of her captors than any other spy on record. Perhaps the highest tribute that was ever paid to her was the order of Secretary Stanton when she was arrested in Martinsburg to which she had returned In 1803. Dont let her get near enough to anyone to talk, he directed, shell charm the heart out of his body. Eventually she was imprisoned In Carroll prison in ' Washington, again placed on trial and sentenced to hard labor in Fitchburg prison. Later this sentence was commuted and she was released and sent South with orders never again to be found within the Federal lines. Some time later she took passage on a blockade runner This ship was bound for England. captured by a Union vessel and Belle ss i mscatusm Boyd was again a prisoner. However, she was treated more as a guest oa the Union ship than as a prisoner. Here romance entered her life when she made the acquaintance of Lieut. Samuel Harding who fell in love with her. Belle reciprocated and after being sent to Canada, she made her way to England. - Harding joined her there and they were married. When Harding returned to the United States, he was arrested as a deserter and imprisoned for a time. There is some dispute as to the later life of Harding and his wife. According to one account, Belle rejoined him in this country after President Johnsons amnesty proclamation had freed him, but for some reason their happiness together was short-liveand she divorced him. Another account says nothing about a divorce but states that he joined her in Eng-- , land after he was released and that he died there in 1869. d Takes to the Stage At any rate the. next that is heard of Belle Boyd Is her entrance upon a re-lt- PHILLIPS' Milk of Magnesia gown flashing with brilliants, and with a hand of Jewels holding up her veil.
