章节摘录
One sunny afternnon in the autumn of the year 1861, a soldier lay in a clump of laurel by the side ofa road in Western Virginia. He lay at full length, upon his stomach, his feet resting upon the toes, his headupon the left forearm. His extended right hand loosely grasped his rifle. But for the somewhat methodicaldisposition of his limbs and a light rhythmic movement of the cartridge box at the back of his belt, he mighthave thought to be dead. He was asleep at his post of duty. But if detected he would be dead shortlyafterward, that being the just and legal penalty of his crime. The sleeping sentienl in the clump of laurel was a young Virginian named Carter Druse. He was the sonof wealthy parents, an only child, and had known such ease and cultivation and high living as wealth andtaste were able to command in the mountain country of Western Virginia. His home was but a few miles fromwhere he now lay. One morning he had risen from the breakfast table and said, quietly but gravely:"Father, a Union regiment has arrived at Grafton. I am going to join it. " The father lifted his leonine head, looked at the son a moment in silence, and replied: "Go, Carter,and whatever may occur, do what you conceive to be your duty. Virginia, to which you are a traitor, mustget on without you. Should we both live to the end of the war, we will speak of the matter. Your mother, asthe physician has informed you, is in a most critical condition ; at the best she cannot be with us longer thana few weeks, but that time is precious. It would be better not to disturb her. " So Carter Druse, bowing reverently to his father, who returned the salute with a stately courtesy whichmasked a breaking heart, left the home of childhood to go soldiering. By conscience and courage, by deedsof devotion and daring, he soon commended himself to his fellows and his officers ; and it was to these quali-ties and to some knowledge of the country that he owed his selection for his present perilous duty at theextreme outpost. Nevertheless, fatigue had been stronger than resolution, and he had fallen asleep. Whatgood or bad angel came in a dream to rouse him from his state of crime who shall say.? Without a movement,without a sound, in the profound silence and the languor of the late afternoon, some invisible messenger offate touched with unsealing finger the eyes of his consciousness —— whispered into the ear of his spirit themysterious awakening word which no human lips have ever spoken, no human memory ever has recalled. Hequietly raised his forehead from his arm and looked between the masking stems of the laurels, instinctivelyclosing his right hand about the stock of his rifle.
