FIGHTING GENERAL GREEN.
The Sharp Engagement of the Wood¬
bury Draught Players.
Woodbuby, Ga., July 18.—[Spe¬
cial.]—Drauht playing is a very fash¬
ionable game with some of onr citi¬
zens just now as well as very fascina¬
ting to others. It has been so fascina¬
ting to one of our best citizens that
he forgot his forage patch and Gen.
Green had almost taken complete
charge of it. When yesterday
the main draught players by chance
passed the squire’s forage patch aud
seeing its condition at once began to
sympathize with him. He was not
willing to give him up from the
draught board, so he called a
ing early this morning to devise
some way of conquering Gen. Green
without giving up the squire. After
considerable debating it was unani¬
mously carried that ail the draught
players should arm themselves with
a No. 2 Scoville hoe and at 7 o’clock
sharp march in line to th* field oi
battle where each and every
should use his weapon diligently un¬
til the General and his full
should be laid fiat on the ground,
At 7 o’clock sharp the full force
draught players, well armed, march¬
ed to the field under the
of SquiiyE. J. Stanford, Capt. C. M.
F. Awtry (Who completed his
tary course at Auburn, Ala.,) as
first lieutenant; W. 8. Williams
mad* a brave confederate soldier,
a little rusty as to tactics but
to the emergency) as second
ant, W. G.Morland third lieutenant,
Jno. Gill and his % year old ox
color bearer. The squire not
satisfied with hiscolor hearer charg¬
ed bayonet with a hoe helve,
ing the ox in the short ribs, which
course insulted him (the ox),
began to buck and landed his burden
in front of him about 10 feet. As
the cblor hearer, Jno. Gill,
about to land, he fully realized
must follow. He knew life would
extinct when be reached his
position, so he, in the act of
stock the flag staff in the ground,
which streamed bravely over his life¬
less body. Though victorious
was not aid* to enjoy the victory,
which was accomplished at

honest that he would never again
