During his memorable tour of the
Ur:ted States in March, 1825, the

p* cites, among them Milledgeville,
then capital if the commonwealth,

numerous military organisations in
attendance was one under command
of SUjur Stephen H. Miller, who

of the occasion:
“Wishing to show ourselves and to
get a glimpse of the Nation's guest,
the sitter’s company, the Lafayette
Volunteer.', from Twiggs, organised
for the occasion, inarched into town
aad halted opposite the Government
House, where General Layfayettc was
quartered. Our Captain went in and
vas introduced by Governor Troup;
then the Captain introduced the three
Revolutionary veterans, William
Duffel, John Shine, and Charles
Raley, to General Lafayette, who on
eing Father Duffel, cordially em
braced him, saying, *1 remember you
of my bodyguard,
and helped to carry me from the field
when 1 was wounded at Brandywine;
I am happy to see you."

Troup’s stalf, including
of Poland.) General Lafayette must
have esteemed it a special compliment
to himself for such renown to be
transferred to France in the pres
ence of such an a-sembtage of wit
nesses. Whether the mistake
accidental or otherwise, it did not
detract in the slighest degree from
the valor or integrity of General
Clarke. At most it only signified
that his youth wa a spent in fighting
the battles of his country, instead of
being enervated within the walls of
a College.
"It should be remembered that be
fore the military retired from the
square they were formed into line,
and Governor Lafayette, leaning
the arm of Governor Troup, walked
along a little lame, and shook hands
with every man, officer and private,
Colonel Jones officiating in the
introduction. The author was men
tioned to him as 'Sergeant M—
the response was, 'Sergeant M-
am very glad to see you.' This joy
was expressed to all, and was more
than reciprocated by all the volun
teers. The hand of General
fnyette had been grasped—that was
glory enough then. It ia still a
pleasant. (Ktnpmb^anee| fbut thirty
vears of hardship in the camp of
life have rather tended to prove, to
the author at least, that glory is not
communicated in so easy and simple
a manner."
