"My family in Accomac was harsh with the Methodists through a mistaken conservatism," Judge Custis said. "They are a good people; they seem to suit this peninsula like the peachtree." A small funeral procession was turning into Barrett's chapel, and the Chancellor interrogated one of the more indifferent followers as to the dead person.

When Peyton mentions "Maxime Valois," the Croesus grasps his hand convulsively. "Did you serve with him?" Joe queries with eagerness. "He was my pardner and chum." "He died in my arms at Peachtree Creek," answers Peyton. Joe embraces Peyton. "He was a game man, Colonel." Peyton answers: "The bravest man I ever saw. I often think of him, in the whirl of that struggle for De Gress's battery.

Magnolia trees with glossy leaves and great white waxen blossoms shaded the house and over the brick wall, that extended down the side street, leaned fig trees. Peachtree Street runs along the top of a ridge and the side streets slope from it. This means that the houses must be built with basements in the rear. Usually the kitchen and servants' quarters are in this basement.

Waller," she said gently, "Don't you remember these little porridge bowls?" She tore the wrappings from the bowls, disclosing the rabbits and the chickens. The man took them in his hands reverently. His lips pressed together to form the letter P. "Yes," said Josie, "Polly and Peter! You lived in Atlanta on Peachtree Street. Your wife is Mary and your name is Stephen.

She still clung to the bobbed henna wig with its permanent wave. That in itself completely changed the appearance of the usually demure Josie. "First I must get my bearings," she mused, as she settled herself in the shabby hall bedroom, that had the one advantage of overlooking the great and only Peachtree Street. On a shelf in her room she found an old telephone book.

In ten minutes they were across the river, and no doubt had taken the oath of allegiance to the United States government. Such was the sentiment of the Army of Tennessee at that time. General John B. Hood had the reputation of being a fighting man, and wishing to show Jeff Davis what a "bully" fighter he was, lights in on the Yankees on Peachtree creek. But that was "I give a dare" affair.

Agnes "began at the beginning," for once. She did not really know why she did so, but she gave the particulars of all that had happened to Neale as she knew them since he had rushed in at that gate the man had so lately entered and saved her from falling into the big peachtree by the bedroom window. Mr. Sorber's comments as she went along, were characteristic.

It is like you, Stephen, though, to think of it. I thank you. I have been a beastly cad and I'm ready to fess up. It was the thought of having a fortune and owning the old house on Peachtree Street. I always loved it and it seemed hard for you to have everything. I loved Mary before you did " "Never mind that part," said Captain Waller sternly.

Hardin's cigar burns late on the deck as he plots alone. When he looks over his accumulated letters, he seizes eagerly a packet of papers marked "Havana." Great God! He has read of Sherman's occupation of Atlanta. The struggle of Peachtree Creek brought curses on Tecumseh's grizzled head.

This movement made the distance travelled by McPherson and Schofield a long one, and extended their front largely, whilst Thomas was much more compact. It was whilst this movement was progressing, on the 20th of July, and was near its completion, that Hood made the attack already planned by Johnston, upon Thomas's columns, crossing Peachtree Creek by several roads converging at Atlanta.
