Captain John Milledge, than whom no braver man ever wore the gray, is living at his home in Atlanta a most pathetic spectacle. The sunbeams dance on the wall and kiss the eyes that cannot see, the voices of loved ones fall upon ears that cannot hear and the light of his life is already gone out. He fights his battles over in the darkness and gallantly leads the Famous Horse Guards. And thus he enters the valley of the shadow fearing no evil and fighting to the end. When all is over we hope he may wear the victor’s wreath and hear the plaudits that await the brave.
