Letter from Col. Wm. II. Stiles to
Judge Wright.
Near Cartersvillk, Ga., I
July 15,1863. J
Hon. Augustus R. Wright, Rome, Ga.,
Dear Sir:-— Your communication of
yesterday is received. In reply to my
enquiries ns'to tho delay in forwarding
me the muster rolls of tho Floyd County
Legion, wiiioh had boon tendard mo,
you state that at a recent meeting of
tho Legion thero was a division and
much excitement upon the question
whether tho companies should be ten
dered through Gov. Brown or through
myself to the Secretary of War, and
that you feared tlmt in eonsequenco of
this division “the Legion will ho broken
up in spite of ull that cun be done.”
By all means, l pray you, avert such a
catastrophe. In my name releaso at
once ana unconditionally the Colonel
and other officers of the Floyd Legion
from all obligations they may conceive
thomselves under from having proposed
to tender me their companies, and in
my name, sincerely and earnestly urge
upon them the propriety as well ns ne
cessity of tendering at once and directly
through Gov. Brown.
That thoy should tender al ones is a,
matter of vital importance; to whom
thoy shall tender, a matter of compar
ative indifference. Tho force to dofend
us irom the raids of tho enemy is need
cd and needed now. It shall never
oven be charged to mo that I presented
a moment’s obstacles to the organiza
tion of such a force. Their muster
rolls will bo forwarded through Gov
ernor Brown as well and as rapidly as
they could be forwarded through me.
When the onomy is almost at our doors
it is no time to divide and wrangle upon
the question, to whom tho companies
shall tender?
As the difficulty, which has occurred
at Rome rolativo to the proper channel
through which companies .for 11 Local
Defense should be tendered, to the
Secretary of Wnr, may occur elsewhere;
1 authorize you to publish J.his letter
and hence, take occasion in it to an
nounce to all the companies raised and
bein^raised from Atlanta exclusive to
tho Tennessee and Alabama lines and
designed for the defense of that por
tion of Georgia, embraced by tho Wes
tern & Atlantic and Rome railroads,
that without attending to condemn
my, own efforts in raising this force or
meaning to surrender the authority for
that purpose vested in me by the See
retary of War; but for the sake only
of tint harmony and concert of action,
which, in matters of common defense
override all other considerations, in
like maimer as I have tho Floyd Le
gion, so do I release them all from any
engagement they may consider them
selves under to forward mo their mus
ter rolls; provided they forward thorn
at once or without delay to Gov. Brown.
And to the officers and privates of such
companies, I embrace the opportunity
to state that the mere transmission of
these muster rolls to the War Depart
ment through tho Governor instead of
through myself, will not alter my rela
tions to this force. It will not inter
fere with the only object 1 had in view
from the commencement, viz: To bo
with you in tho hour and at tho point
kees might be compelled to perish or
live on chinquapins and extortioners.

In Mcmoriam.
Newnan, Ga., July 18th, 1863.
Mr. D. M. McCurry: .
Dear Sir—It be
comes my melanoholy duty, by tho.ro-
quest of your surviving son iu tho
army, to announce to you the painful
intelligence of yoiir elder son’s death.
Alonzo Ci McCurly, the glut nor of piece
No..2, of tho Cherokee Artillery, your
beloved sou, and tho warm friend of nit
who knew him, was 'lulled on tho mor.
ng of the 13th inst., nt Jackson, Miss.
The Minnio bdl which snatched Hfo
from him, struck him whilst at tho
post of duty, just about to aim his gun
at tho enemy, entering his right temple
and coming out at the back part of his
head. He fell upon hiB bank, threw
his arms across his breast, gasped a few
times, and was dead ere a word had es
caped his lips. Those were the circum
stances of his docenso, which transpired
about 10 o’clock on Monday morning
last, which foot, with the attending.oir.
cumstances of so sudden a death, oast
dark gloom and cloud of sorrow over
every countenance that behold tho
scene. But, sir, with tlie exception of
his only brother present, who bent over
him with unutterable anguish, none or
us could feel what you and his fond
mother must feel, upon the reception
of this painful narration. None but
paronts who have lost a child of a simi-
lav charaoter and under similar circum
stances, can fully approciato your posi
tion aud enter fully into your sorrow.
But dear parents us you are, whilst I am
unfitted to sympathize wli you fully,
from tho want of those relationships
which you cuBtain in life, permit mo to
offer my sympathy, such as it is, and
to commond you, with all your sorrows,
to that Meroii'iil and All Wise' Being
‘Who doeth nil things well.”
I became acquainted with "Lonny”
—as wo familiarly addressed him—after
we had entered the service. A time of
war, “a lime that tries meiv’s.souis,” is
a time "whioli,” as has boen-truly said,
"will reveal any dark spots to be found
in a charaoter.” During such a time,
permit mo to say what is but the t.ruo
sent’tuontof my heart. His character
has been such that I lmd not only
learned to admire, but ever to love him.
A brave soldier, he was ever nt his post!
A generous comrado, his anxieties nnd
thoughts romped abroad to sliaro and
reliovo tlio necessities of others. A
cheerful companion, tho sunlight of
his countenance dissipated gloom and
soattered happiness around those among
whom lie moved. But more than all,
ah yes I the only thing that can now
reconcile you to his fate, and pour tho
oil of consolation upon your wounded
hearts, was the fact of his "Believing
oh Jesus with all the liem-.t.” He lived
Up to that profession and lie must have
died possessed of the blessed hope of
immortality.
His tody sleeps carefully entombed
in the green earth, and tho spot desig
nated where the eye of affection may
traco the letters of^his name. But I
bolieve, as those who know him bolievo
that his soul rests in Taradise. Would
you recall him from that sweet rest to
wander again with woary foot nnd ncli-
ing head upoli this sin-stricken Barth?
God gcantto reconcile you nnd yours to
his sudden death—to make it a blessing
to all your household, and to prepnre
you all for tho great family meoting of
the Resurrection morn.
YViirs, with unfeigned sympathy,
