chained together prnzed gmzed gazed innocently about till they neared that purt of tho the picket ikuo lbo ituo where guards from tho the 106th wei were o stationed hearing in tho the dead waste and nod middle of tho the night tho the mysterious hoof hool tall fall of tho the apod aged couple and tho the omilous omnlous oninfous rattling rattlingof of tho the chain by which they woro were fastened together tho the fears tears of the 106th roso rose high in their breasts and they fired oft off their guns and stampeded wildly into camp tho the long roll was bounded sounded the whole garrison was turned out and formed la line of at battle and a detail was sent to find out what was the trouble troub lo they found the trouble brought it into camp with them and oh ohl I 1 how mad we wero until we had to laugh the other incident which clinched their title for them was when old pap brahmin as wo we called him took their whole regiment prisoners by tho the prowess of bis his single arm ho he was commander of tho the post posts and thinking his off offi liera ters did not exercise orciso ox sufficient vigilance ho he started out one night on a tour ot of inspection he tried to ret got into every other colonels tent in the brigade brigado but failed rode up to a battery and told an ord orderly eay ejy to get got g right off now and spilo that gun and camo came very near jetting zetting shot for his pains and tbn tbin abin rodo rode right on up and captured alj tlj tl loath logth 10gth ho ila found no guard at the colonels tent ten t eo so ho be went in and aoka wokd

have them stack their guns and be quick about it too and tho the colonel surrendered and did oi as ho he wag was told to do then after they wero were all in position they got such a tonguelashing tongue lashing from old pap brahmin ar a no regiment ever got before and now in view of the foregoing exploits I 1 1 appeal to any fair minded man to answer did not that regiment fairly earn its tito
