Where others are filled with joy, but there ta aun ome consolation, those who think of Gladys today are the ones who loved her . MOTHER PATHKR BROTHERS
miles northeast of Springfield. Here the Robidour, one of those crystal clear streams characteristic of the Ozarks, winds through the hills with the little farms strung along the' banks like beads on a string.
Early in the war as it was, deeds of blood had already been done In the region. not by the enlisted men of either ade, but by banda of des- peradoes, who took advantage of the unsettled conditions to rob and mur- der &' will. A company of Federal cavalry had been stationed at Waynesville to run down such ban- dita.
COLD BLOODED MURDER
. : Then one afternoon as Anderson White and his wife were returning to; their home In Robidoux they were halted by.a group of horsemen. The leader was a giant in size whose florce face was rendered still more dlabster because he had but one eye. White and his wife instantly knew that this must be "One-Eyed Davis" . man whose hauds were already steeped In Innocent blood. and on whose head both Confederates and Federais had set a price.
This figure motioned with his re- volver and gave the order. "Git out of that wagon." Of course the terri. ned couple obeyed; then one of the
71
gang was ordered to get into the' wagon and dikke it to their camp .! And when White ventured to protest the robbery Davis shot the poor fel- Jow dead and fode away without a ward! A cold blooded. heartless mur- der,, but no more so than hundreds of others, chargeable to such bandits in these days.

The murder was committed on Bat- urday. and on Tuesday the widow still sat allent and tearless, stunned by the wicked blow that had struck her. Kindly neighbors had done their best for her comfort and re- turned to their own homes. fearful Jest a like horror should befull them also.
Suddenly there was the sound of mapy hoofs on the road 14 Bout of the home and at a glance the woman saw that here were the slayers of her husband. "One Eyed Davis" and his whole gang. In an Instant s plan for fearful and i!shterms .e; . : aprang complete mu (very detril frito . her mind.

Johnnie answered. "Shore I can. Ain't I been there with you and . Pat" Then his mother gathered htm In her arms and whispered again: "Oh Stante honey, you are so little : but you are all I have. John !! men that killed your father

OFF AT TOP SPEED
Jobnnie bald not a word then, but with pale cheeks and flashing eyes was away through the undergrowth as awiftly and noiselessly as an In- dian. His mother listened till the tinkle of the bell ceased, and then she bent all her energies to tha prep- aration of a fine meal and the en- tertainment of her guests, Meati- while. Johnnie had gone cautiously along a fence until he reached the road at a point safely out of sight and hearing of the house, and then he put his surprised old mount to such speed as she had never attained be- fore, and in an astonishingly short time he dashed Into the little court house at Waynraville, Wildly asking everyone he met for the Yankee cap- tain.
That officer was soon found and to him Johnnie poured out the story of hils father's murder and his moth- er's frantic message. The story bore every stamp of truth and in 10 min- utes niter the hoyt arrival the bugle sounded "Boots and Saddles" and 30 cavalrymen followed the captain with Johnnie on old Moll well in the lead nad galloped off up Robidoux

In the romer of the room she had a small reed organ, a rare thing in the hills in those days, and she played and sang for them indeed, she got that bunch of rufflans to gather around her, And, Incredible as it may seem, those blood stained men joined In singing hymn after hymn.
Davis had once heen a backwoods preacher and he led that singing with all the fervor of lils more In- novent days. Then there was a will shout from the sentinel above the house: a shot or two, and the thun- dering of many hoofs, and the blue- coated cavalry, with Johnnie In the very forefront. dashed in aud sur- I rounded the house. Resistance was 1 hopeless. for the desperadoes were

Probably Davis thought he would not be recognized, for he had never met the captain before, and he tried to carry it off with a swagger as he sald. "Captain; first off I took you all for a gang of rebel bushwhackers, but I see now you wear the blue: me and all these fellers Is Federals. ou our way to Rolla to enlist."
But the rascal had not counted on the woman, who with blazing eyes sprang In front of him and shrieked. "Don't you believe then captain. He's "One Eved Davis." and he killed
