When he did not carry his flag It was placed on the post in front of the church.


--


"During the famous, or ; 'in- famous Zagoni rald, through, the town, it hung on the post and was the means of' saving the little fel- low's father, as the raiders dashed through the streets firing at any- one they chanced to see.


"When the armies of Goo Lyon marched .pastito their, deout at Wilson Creek they cheered it to the echo: and white drooped, in Barrow when the defeated'armies were hurled back in defeat. It waved unafraid during the bom- hardment of the old church and mashap laughed .when Alarma- duke wus frightened away by the ruse of a twelve-year-old child. The Vilisge? Springfield
