Excerpt from The Cavalier
If I go to sleep, I said, you know how I dream. I shall have one of those dreams of mine to carry around in my memory for a year, like a bullet in my back So there the clear fellow had sat all, night to give me my hourly powders of reassurance that I could be a quartermaster's clerk without shame.

Excerpt from The Cavalier
Our camp was in the heart of Copiah County, Missisippi, a mile or so west of Gallatin and about six miles east of that once robber-haunted road, the Natchez Trace. Austin's brigade, we were, a detached body of mixed Louisiana and Mississippi cavalry, getting our breath again after two weeks' hard fighting of Grant. Grierson's raid had lately gone the entire length of the State, and we had had a hard, vain chase after him, also.
Joe Johnston's shattered army was at Jackson, about forty-five miles to northward; beleaguered Vicksburg was in the Northwest, a trifle farther away; Natchez lay southwest, still more distant; and nearly twice as far in the south was our hearth broken New Orleans. We had paused to recuperate our animals, and there was a rumor that we to get new clothing. Anyhow we had rags with honor, and a right to make as much noise as we chose.
It was being made.
