Was it a mother's soft and white ?
And have the iips of a sister fair

Somebody wafted his name above,

Somebody wept when lie away,
Looking so handsome bravo and

Somebody clung to lus parting hand.
Somebody’s waiting and watebihg for

Pausing to drop on his grave a tear ;

A Reminiscence of Robert B. Lee.
Pittsburg Dispatch.
“While 1 was in Virginia,” said the
gentleman (Raymond Raynor), “I was
made acquainted with an incident of
General Robert E. L’‘e, which makes
him, in my eyes, a greater and nobler
man than 1 ever before considered
him. When the war broke oat, Gen.
Lee owned one of the largest p’anta
tions in the old dominion. 11 is staves
were numbered by the. bundled.*, and
tiicy every ono loved their m ister.
General Lee was one of those who
watelie ! the approaching conflict with
sorrow, and it was only when his na
tiv stir ,i seceded that lie rel ictantly
gave into what he consider id his -duty,
and joined las fori lines witii the con
federacy. He was on the wrong side,
and when he sheathed his sword and
returned homo he found his property
confiscated. It was convex - ted into the
famous National cemetery for union
soldiers, and thousands upon tho ukands
wore interred there.
“It was a severe stroke for ' General
Lee. t’iie war seem >d like a cruel

neighbors felt how h uni it was for the

him with interest as lie passed by in

ground. An old planter, one night
o lining along the road by i he place,
saw a cloaked figure m iving ab nit
along the graves. Alth nigh surprised
and somewhat terrill si, hd stopped to
watch It. It walked around a a liort

and then turning the head as if in

the mysterious -mg rein lined in that
