I shall always remember him so, a living monument to a dead past. October 6, 1911. ... I once "heared" Sedalia Lane telling some of her experiences, and she said she "surreptitiously stole along."
On reaching St. I found General Steels at Sedalia with his regiments scattered about loosely; and General Pope at Otterville, twenty miles back, with no concert between them. The rebel general, Sterling Price, had his forces down about Osceola and Warsaw.

Stewart had given Gale her dress, so, just to be nasty, she said, as soon as she saw Gale, "Dear me, when are you going to dress, Gale? You will hardly have time to get out of that horse-blanket you are wearing and get into something decent." You see, she thought it was one of my dresses fixed over for Gale. Presently Sedalia asked me if I was invited to the "function."
Before Rigor Mortis could set in or the Undertaker had time to flash a Tape Measure, Aleck was up at the grief-stricken Home to cop out an Option on the Interest. Now he could give the Cackle to all the Knights of the Road who had blown their Substance along the gay White Ways of Crawfordsville, Bucyrus, and Sedalia.
While we were all busy some one made a remark about how smart these children were. Sedalia thought that a good time to get in a big word, so she said, "Yes, I have always said Lula was a progeny." Mrs.

It seemed that "Mis' Lane" married quite young, was an orphan, and had no one to tell her things she should have known.
About the same time I received the following dispatch: HEADQUARTERS, ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI November 28, 1881. Brigadier-General SHERMAN, Sedalia: Mrs. Sherman is here. General Halleck is satisfied, from reports of scouts received here, that no attack on Sedalia is intended. You will therefore return to this city, and report your observations on the condition of the troops you have examined.
Please telegraph when you will leave. SCHUYLER HAMILTON, Brigadier-General and Aide-de-Camp. I accordingly returned to St. Louis, where I found Mrs. Sherman, naturally and properly distressed at the continued and reiterated reports of the newspapers of my insanity, and she had come from Lancaster to see me. This recall from Sedalia simply swelled the cry.
"He is no more crazy than I am," said Stephen, warmly "Is he not?" answered Tiefel, "then I will show you a mistake. You recall last November he was out to Sedalia to inspect the camp there, and he sleeps in a little country store where I am quartered. Now up gets your General Sherman in the middle of the night, midnight, and marches up and down between the counters, and waves his arms.
