Fetter from Mrs. Murrow.
Charleston, Ark., Nov. 1, 1862.
Dear Banner:
Once more I’ve had sight of The Banner,
though very old. Mr. Murrow is now. at
the Seminole Agency, acting as agent for
the Seminoles, and preaching, etc., for the
Rehoboth.
We have had so little news lately from
Georgia, that we scarcely know where our
friends are. Yet we hope you do not have
to run about for hiding places, as many
persons and families do here. The Feder
ate are not only dreaded, but hated ; South
ern people do not want to be with them in
any capacity. Brother Reed—missionary
to the Cherokees—stopped at my house on
the night of the 25th October, running the
second time from the Federate. Some of
his neighbors were Union men, and had
been endeavoring to’get him and have him
hanged. lie did not feel willing to sacri
fice himself in that way, and made his es
cape with his family in the night. Now he
wishes to stop somewhere to teach school
during the winter. Tie has had a hard
time. But brother Slover had a still har
der time. The Cherokee Pins robbed his
house of everything, took the children’s
clothes off of them, and left sister S. with
only-one dress, which was in some place
where they could not see it. Brother S.
was away from home, of course; had he
been with his family, he would certainly
have been killed.. I have not seen brother
S., but heard several speaking of him who
had seen him. I heard he has bought a
comfortable farm, (probably,) but how
long he may be permitted to enjoy it, no
one knows. Brother Buckner has just re
turned from Texas with his wife and babe.
I suppose he is at his old station near Fort
Gibson.
Brother Hogue and family have never
left their home, I think. I have not heard
from him, but believe him to be laboring,
as ever, faithfully. As to ourselves, Mr. M. is
stationed at least 230 miles from my
h-o m-e(f) no, house. But last week I re
ceived a letter from him, requesting and
permitting me* with little Cogee, to move
up to the Agency and live with him. lie
thinks and hopes ’twill be safe there, or at
least as much so as here in Arkansas. I
never wanted to leave the Nation, but the
condition of the country required it.
From what I hear, and knew when
among the Indians, 1 believe they have
great confidence in his ability, willingness
and desir'e Jo advance them both socially
and spiritually. His soul seems knit to
them. The Seminole Battalion is now near
the Agency. It will give protection while
so near. Ido not know how long it will
remain there. Quite a number of the Scm
inoles ran off to the Federate when they
came down to Port Gibson, last summer.
Now it is thought all that are left are loyal
to the South. Mr. M. writes that he has '
succeeded in persuading the remaining fam
ilies to remove to their own nation —they *
having stampeded when the others ran
away. The greater portion of the negroes 5
are gone. The few families remaining at
home made no crops for want of rain.—
Some families have a little corn, raised
last year, and of those who ran off, some
of them left corn* which will probably be
confiscated and sold to the Indians. I do i
not know. 'They are suffering for food and 1
clothing—none in the country to be bought. ;
Few Indians have any facilities for making I
cloth. Some few once knew how to weave <
and spin ; but they had been depending on |
the stores in the Nation, and now they are '
destitute. No cards in the country ; few ]
wheels and fewer looms. 1 am trying to .
get a loom to carry up with me, but really I
fear lamto go away without one. If my
husband were here he could and would get
me one. The o.ily factory anywhere near
us was burned last week. Private citizens
received but little benefit from it—it work
ed for The government all the time. Wool ’
was on the way from Texas to supply it
when it was burned. Now the wool is be- !
iug peddled out over the country at and 1
$ 1.50 per pound. Here, jeans is bringing :
$7 per yard. Corn can be bought on large
plantations for sl. No dry goods in this
country. Arkansas ladies are all wearing (
homespun. i
Mr.,M. made no arrangement to have |
his mail changed. He will possibly have |
it carried privately from “ Old Choctaw -
Agency ” to the Seminole Agency. I do |
hope your paper will continue to come. I (
love to see it and read it, if it does come ;
late. May yourself and co laborers long be
enabled to send it out to those who love
the Hanner as we do. My father received s
several numbers with ours. I
We have had but one letter from Geor- |
gia in a long time, and suppose but few of {
our letters ever reach their destination.— j
I’or some time, while the Mississippi river
was blockaded, we wrote but few letters.
XX e get news so seldom, we scarcely ever
know w hen mails can or do go through.
1 wish we could get letters from our
Georgia friends. ‘XX e love them affection
ately, and words, although written, from
friends never tail ot producing pleasure.—
I’he time may be when we can communi
cate w ith friends and loved ones without so
much difficulty. May a kind Heavenly
Father restore peai'C and quietude to our
distracted country by giving us victory and
independence!
\\ ill all our friends remember us at a
Throne of Grace ’ We need assistance from
on high. Thanks, very many, to those who
have so greatly and bountifully favored us
in times past. May they all be rewarded
tenfold.
Continue to send the Banner, if possible.
\\ ere Mr. M. here, you might have some
thing interesting. As it is from me, please
excuse all deficiency.
\ ours in love, C. B. Murrow.

sible, I would wish that we could share the
pleasures he will enjoy during his stay in

and Georgia.
I am now camped at Old Choctaw Agen
cy. Weather rather cold. No tents —no
houses on the road after we leave this place
in which we can stay all night. I hope soon
to see my husband, and enjoy his presence
during the winter as much as his duties
will allow him to be at home. The Agen
cy buildings are quite ccmfortabre.
I heard yesterday that all the whites at
Fort Cobb hack been killed by the Indians
and traitorous Texans. The Fort is about
100 miles from the Agency.
Yours, truly, C. B. Murrow.
Army Col portage.
Richmond, Va., Dec. 3, 1862.
Rev. H. C. Hornady is our agent in, At
lanta, and from time to time transmits to
us w hatever the brethren contribute thro’
him to Army Colportage. He also keeps
on hand an assortment of our publications,
and supplies chaplains, colporters and oth
ers, who arc acting as tract distributers in
the army on the coast and in the West.—
This agency in Atlanta has been so success
ful that we have been urging brother Hor
nady to give, if possible, still more of his
time to the interests of this work. All the
funds raised by him will be used in supply
ing the Georgia soldiers with the Word of
Life. It will be quite convenient for the
friends, when they send on their dues to the
editor, to add a few dollars for the soldier,
and a mite from so many will make a large
amount, and do vast good.

COLUMBUS MARTIN ESPY.'
Second son of Thomas and Sarah Espy, was
born near Cassville, Cass county, Ga., on the
19th day of March, 1838. In Cass county he
remained until the year 1849, when his father,
with his family, left the old homestead, and set
tled on Coosa river, in Cherokee county, Ala. —
Here, where he was noted for his industry ami
attention to business—respected and loved by
all who knew him for his many generous quali
ties and agreeable manners —he continued till
he had almost reached his majority. In Sep
tember, 1859, he went to Bienville Parish, La.,
to live with his bachelor uncles. With them he
remained but a short while, for the “ icy mes
senger,” passing along that way, deprived him
’ of his two only kinsmen, and he was left entire
ly alone, in a new country, among strangers.—
In the spring of 1801, aroused by the threaten
ing attitude of the North, he hastened back to
Alabama, and volunteered in Company H, 19th
Regiment Alabama Volunteers, to assist his
struggling section in gaining her independence.
With his regiment he was sent to Corinth, where
on the ever-memorablc fields of Shiloh, where
the Lord appeared “ again ” to his people, and
where the chivalric sons of the South,
“Though few the numbers they could boast;
But every freeman was a host,
And felt as though himself were he
On whose arm hung victory—
impelled alone by love of country and hatred to
the Yankees, who was forging the chains to en
slave the Southern freemen; and while many
of these undaunted heroes, with strong deter
mination t(5 win the bloody day,
“Made way for Liberty, and died!”
still Columbus struggled on with his bleeding
countrymen; nor did he quit the sanguinary
field till a ball from the enemy’s guns inflicted a
serious, though not dangerous, wound in the
thigh. In this condition he was sent home,
where with proper attention he soon recovered
from tne injury he had received. A short time
before Gen. Bragg’s army left Chattanooga for
Kentucky, he rejoined his command, and expe
rienced with them the extreme hardships of
that most unfortunate campaign. On this march
he was attacked with diarrhea, rendering him
unfit for service, which, in the course of a few
weeks, assumed a chronic form, r and. resulted
eventually in his death. As the fiightened hare,
pursued by the huntsman and his yelling pack,
when wearied, returns to the warm nest whence
she nimbly sprang to elude her pursuers—so
the “war-broken soidier” came back to his own
sweet home, to gaze for the last time on her
lovely haunts, and to breathe out his life in the
arms of those his lieart held dear. On the 18th
of November he landed at his home in Alaba
ma for the last time. lie was not unapprised
of the near approach of the Monster, for he of
ten remarked that unless the disease was arrest
ed, he would soon pass away. The second night
before he died, calling his mother to him, and
begging her to be calm, he said he wished to
talk with her about religion. While perfectly
conscious he said to her, “ Mother, do you think
one who has been regenerated can be lost! ”
His sobbing mother replied, “ Certainly not, Co
lumbus ; why do you ask that question ?”
“ Because I was regenerated when in Louisiana,
and intended joining the church after my arri
val at home : but for want of encouragement I
omitted to do so.” He thought he ought to be
baptized, but observed, “the weather is now
too cold. His mother then remembered what
he had said on his return from Louisiana, and
reproached herself for not having persuaded
him at that time to take up his Saviour’s cross.
On Saturday the 29th, it was apparent that he
would soon be in the world of spirits. The
brother of his childhood’s sunny hours, and the
riper years of his youth and manhood, as he
hung around his dying bed, anxious to catch
anything that fell from his lips, heard him
breathe this fervent prayer: “ May the blessings
of lieaven rest on you all, forever and ever.—
Amen.” Five or six minutes before he died,
calling the family around him, he tenderly em
braced his mother first, then all by turns, im
ploring each one as they left his arms “to meet
him in heaven.” He desired brother Hood, the
man of God, to pray that he might live if it
were the will of God; if not, he wished to die.
He besought his Saviour in these words: “ Oh,
Jesus, let. me die ! oh, Jesus, let me die ! ” Then'
turning his dying eyes to heaven, with his hands
folded on his breast, uttering a few incoherent,
sounds, he passed away asjgently as the ripple
of the ocean wave.
When the aututnu winds were sighing
Softly through the leafless trees,
Thou, loved brother, wert dying—
Hastening to eternity !
The cold and silent form of the departed one
now sleeps in his tomb on an eminence over
looking the home of his widowed mother; and
when she visits his last resting place, or turns
her streaming eyes towards tile sod that wraps
the form of her darling second-born, reflecting
that her loss is his eternal gain—for she beholds
him with an eye of faith alar otf in “Abraham’s
bosom ’ —she would not have him back in this
cold and friendless world; his sisters, who weep
bitter tears at his early demise, and refuse to be
comforted in their deep bereavement, would not
have their brother back to buffet longer with
the trials of this world; his younger brothers,
to whom he was so dear, and who so deeply
deplore his untimely end, would not have him
back; nor would that heartbroken one, to I
whom he seemed dearer than all the rest while !
living, believing him at home in that, bright)
world, “where the wicked cease from troubling, J
and where the weary arc at rest,” have him
back. His Elder Brother.

a continuance of the patronage heretofore so
liberally bestowed on them, and promise to
use every exertion to render entire satis

binding of BOOKS, and for general JOB

•establishment in the Confederate States. —
