The New York Herald of recent date
contains the following chatty revlfw of
Mrs. Myrta Lockett A Vary's charming
new book, "Dixie After the \Var.” Mrs.
Avary has lived much in Atlanta, where
she has a wide circle of friends who
feel genuine pride and delight In her
success. "Dixie Afte* the War" Is
story, however, which must possess an
interest for every Southerner, apart
from uny personal Interest In the au
thor. Its pages are Ailed with anecdote
and portraiture of the men whose
names were the pride and glory of the
Confederacy, and General Clement A.
Evans writes a charming introduction
Because of the thoroughness of Tho
Herald's review, we here quote It In
full:
Myrta Lockett Avary was a very
young girl when the civil war broke
out. In a book which she published
In 1903, "A Southern Girl in *61,"
she gave us a graphic and spirited de
scription of social and domestic life
as it was lived by the women of the
South during the harrowing years when
their fathers, brothers and husbands
ero fighting at the front.
In a new book, entitled "Dixie After
the War" (DoubJedav, Page & Co.), she
continues the story and g'ves us an
eye witness’ story of the social condi
tions that existed In the South for the
twelve years following th; fail of Rich
mond.
Mrs. Avary Is peculiarly fitted for the
work. As General Clement A. Evans
Informs us In his Introduction, Myrta
Lockett—which was her maiden name
—grew' up after the war on a large Vir
ginia plantation, where her parents
kept open house In tho true Southern
fashion. Two public roads, which
united at their gates, were thorough
fares linking country towns in Vir
ginia and North Curollna, and were
much traveled by Jurists, lawyer* and
politicians on their way to and from
various court sittings. These gentle
men often found It pleasant and con
venient to ntop tor supper and over
night at Lombardy Grove, particularly
as a son of tho house was of their
guild.
Perhaps few* of the company thus
gathered realised what an earnest lis
tener they hud In the little girl, Myrta,
who sat intent at her father's or broth-
knee drinking In eagerly the dis
cussions and stories. To Improsslons
and information so acquired much was
added through family correspondence
with relatives and friends in Peters
burg, Richmond, Atlantu, the Carol I -
nas; also In experiences related by
these friends and relatives when hos
pitalities were exchanged. Interesting
and eventful diaries, also, were at the
author’s disposal.
Such was her unconscious prepara
tion for the writing of this book. Her
conscious preparation was a tour of
several Southern states, recently un
dertaken, for the purpose of collecting
fresh data and substantiating informa
tion already possessed. Added to this
Is the balance of sympathy which a
Southern woman who hus sojourned
much at the North Is ablo to strike.
So bore we have the tragedy and
omedy of the military dictatorship and
<f reconstruction. Tho topsyturvy con
lltlons of tho period, the domestic ui>
leuvulH are presented with photograph
ic detail—negroes voting and dominat
ing until the whites In self-refense rose
against the law to establish what they
considered a higher law than that
which was written in the statute hooks
—Black and Ton conventions and leg
islatures, disorder on plaptntlons, Loyal
Leagues and Freodmen’s Bureaus, Ku-
Klux and Red Shirts.
A wide Interest Is appealed to In the
earlier chapters, narrating Incidents
connected with Abraham Lincoln's visit
to Richmond, Jefferson Davis’ Journey-
Ings, capture and imprisonment, the
arrest of Vice President Stephens and
the attempt to capture General Toombs.
Nobody who saw Mr. Lincoln during
his visit to Richmond, we are told, ob
served In him any trait of exultation.
"Walking the streets with the ne
groes crowding around him, In the
Davis mansion with the negroes paying
him court and our citizens calling on
him, in the carriage with General
Weltxel, or General Shepley, a motley
herd following—he was the same, only,
as those who watched him declared,
paler and wearler-looklng each time
they saw him."
She tells a pretty story about the
wife of General George Pickett, who
headed the famous charge at Gettys
burg. General Pickett’s uncle, Mr.
Johnson, had been a law partner with
Lincoln in Illinois before the war. Lin
coln had taken a great interest In
young George as a cadet at West Point
and had written him kindly. Jovial
letters of advice. During that hurried
sojourn In Richmond, Lincoln found
time to look up Mr. Johnson. His car
riage and armed retinue drew up In
front of the old Pickett mansion.
The general's beautiful young wife,
trembling with alarm, heard a strange
voice asking, first, for Mr. Johnson, and
then about General Pickett, and finally,
'Is General Pickett's wife here?"
Sho came forward, her baby In her
arms.
"I am General Pickett's wife."
"Madam, 1 am George's old friend,
Abraham Lincoln."
"The president of the United States?”
"No," with a kindly, half-quizzical
smile; "only Abraham Lincoln, George’s
old friend. And this Is George’s baby?"
Lincoln bent his kindly, half-sad,
half-smiling glance upon the child.
Baby George stretched out his hands.
Lincoln took him and the little one. In
the pretty fashion babies have, opened
hla mouth and kissed the president.
"Tell your father,” said Lincoln, "that
I will grant him a special fmnesty—If
he wants It—for the sake of your
mother's bright eyes and your good
manners."
Alas! It was only a short time after
that—when Lincoln was dead—that the
mother was flying, terror-stricken, with
her baby to Canada, where General
Pickett, In fear of his life, had taken
refuge.
As an example of the straits to which
Southerners were reduced in those dis
tressful times, Mrs. Avary tells how
Colonel Cary, of General Magruder's
staff, came home to find his family
desperately poor.
"He did not know to what he could
turn his hand for the support of him
self and family. He walked around his
place, came In and said to his wife:
‘My dear, I have taken stock of our as
sets. You pride yourself on your apple
pies. We have an apple tree and a
cow*. I will gather the apples and milk
the cow, and you will make the pies,
and 1 will go around and sell them.’
"Armed with pies, he met his afore
time antagonists at Camp Grant and
conquered them quite. The pies were
delicious, the seller was a soldier, an
officer of distinction, in hard lurk, and
tho men at Camp Grant were soldiers,
too. Thero was sharp demand and good
price; only tho elite—officers of rank—
could afford to indulge in these con
fections. Well it was that Yankee
mothers had cultivated in their sons
an appetite for pies. One Savannah
lady made $30 selling pies to Sherman’
soldiers. In Georgia's aristocratic 'City
by the Sea' high-bred dames stood
at basement windows selling cakes and
pies to whoever would buy."

BERNHARDT’S ETERNAL YOUTH.
Haruh Bernhardt says Patti 1h foolish
to retire It she can sing at nil.
"This retiring buHlneas makes me
tired," Mme. Bernhardt said. "Mine.
Patti Is not old unless she is 70, nnd
1 do not think she Is that old yet. (She
was born In 1843.)
"I do not mean to retire even w'hen
I am 70 years old, It J am still able
to act. There Is no reason why I
should. I am stronger today than I
ever was, and I have five new plays to
bring out this season, including one
written by myself, which 1 have named
‘Adrienne Lecouvreur,’ which treats
that heroine In an original manner.
"This Just shows limv much truth
there Is In those stories that 1 am going
to quit the theatrical business.
"Let me assure you that there will*
be no retirement for me as long as I
