An Amusing Exploit)
Henry Hale, one of the best scouts .in the
Federal army, left Leavenworth with dis-
tatches. As he rode along, men from e.very
lireetion were going to join Price. Hesaw
an old secessionist witli a shot gntt, and
thought it wotiiairo a nice thing to drive off
the old fellow, and take his liorsc. into Lex
iiigton. '
So he engage^ tho man in, conversation
and gt f-ing an opportunity, put his revolver
to. the rebels head and ordered Ii
-r. — , --™ him to tie his
gun to the saddle, to dismount, and finally
-VO skedaddle. - J
’ The dld inan -made tracks Tapidly; ghtd tq
escape with his life. •
Hale took the horso by tbe bridle and
rode on whistling‘Yankee Doodle.’
He hadridden bnt.a mile or two, wlicp
at th6'tnrn of theiroad he was suddenly or
dered to‘halt.’ >• ■ •■'
• The old rehel had procured another gun
and got ahead of him. The gun was square
ly leveled at Hale’s head.
'Get off that horse,’ said the rebel. - .
Hale got-down. ' '
Tic that revolver to llte saddle?
Hale olteyctl. ..
‘Pull off yout. pants.’
Hale did it. " : . ' ‘

An order which Halo at once camedlnto
effect merely saying:
;‘Well, cap, I thought my shirt was com-
g next—gootl bye- r
ing next-good by..
The rebel went oft with the two horses
whistling ‘Dixie,’ while Hale marched seven
miles into Lexington with only his shirt and
coat on. His coat contained his dispatches.
He will not be permitted to forget that
seven miles. .
