You will see that most of us are Mountain boys, and we trust that we do not disgrace the home from which we come. It would afford us great pleasure and satisfaction to have for our leader an officer so well and favorably known for bravery, courtesy and professional attainments as Lieutenant-Colonel Lane, of the gallant Bethel regiment. Permit us to express our personal hope that we may receiv

e of Second Manassas, August 30, 1862, and died of his wounds August 31st. In 1859 he was married to Miss E. Tecoa Whitner, a daughter of Judge Whitner, of South Carolina, and they had one son, Thomas J., Jr., who died May 20, 1895. Mrs. Glover still lives in Virginia. Colonel Glover was a member of the State legislature that called the secession convention of 1860. B. J. Gold, since 1876 one of the leading citizens of Blacksburg and vicinity, is a native of North Carolina, born in Cleveland county, December 11, 1845. He is a son of Daniel P. and Margaret M. (Jenkins) Gold, both natives of North Carolina, where his grandfather settled from Virginia at the beginning of the present century. In 1861 his father, though past military age, enlisted in a volunteer company, and his son believing he was better able to endure a soldier's life, and perform the patriotic duty of the household, was successful in being taken in his father's place, though he then lacked several days of being s

of May 12th, 1864, word came down the line from our side, We are out of ammunition; send us cartridges. We cannot hold the works without ammunition. I called for volunteers out of my command to try the perilous task of carrying the desired help to our comrades. At this time the great pressure of the enemy on our immediate brigade front was broken. John W. McGregor of Anson county, of immediate highland Scotch extraction, Sergeant Ingram, Company K, of Wake county, Private Dixion of Cleveland county, Private Cox of Anson county, and Private Workman at once volunteered. They carried three boxes of ammunition to the line then held by the brigade of General Harris, of Mississippi. The General was surrounded by his staff and couriers. Sergeant McGregor told him that he and his comrades had brought the ammunition, and General Harris asked if no one would carry the cartridges into his line. None of the command answered. McGregor and Workman bore one box of it to the outer lines, whe

overed from his wound, to other commands. On November 1st, 1862, Lieutenant-Colonel McAfee was commissioned colonel, Major Fleming was promoted lieutenant colonel, and Captain Pinckney B. Chambers, of Company C, was made major. During the summer of 1862 Adjutant Richmond fell a victim to typhoid fever, and the life of this brave and capable officer was thus destroyed—no less an offering on the altar of patriotism than if he had laid it down on the battle-field. Cicero A. Durham, of Cleveland county, prior to the war a cadet of the Military Institute of General D. H. Hill, at Charlotte, and who afterwards became so famous throughout the army as the fighting quarter-master, was appointed adjutant. He served in this capacity with great efficiency and distinction until May 2, 1863, when he was promoted assistant quarter-master to succeed Captain George, who was transferred to other duties. William H. Dinkins, who had been sergeant-major, was appointed adjutant, and continued in that

od was reduced one-half and other expenses lessened. The University takes an honorable place also in the manufacture of iron, for the second largest iron-mill in the Confederacy was owned and controlled by Robert R. and John L. Bridgers, both alumni, the former being also a member of the Confederate Congress. There was danger of an iron famine in the Confederacy, and at the request of the government the Messrs. Bridgers purchased the High Shoals iron property in Lincoln, Gaston, and Cleveland counties, N. C., and rebuilt the furnaces, forges, rolling-mills, nail factories, and foundaries. The States of North and South Carolina became, to a large extent, dependent on these mills, and they did also much government work. It was through such extraordinary measures as these that the necessities of life and the sinews of war were supplied to the people of North Carolina. This had a reflex action upon them, and kept up their interest and enthusiasm throughout the fearful struggle; the
