FLANKING "LITTLE PHIL
THE MAN WHO CAME NEAR SPOIL
ING SHERIDAN'S RIDE
Telia the Confederate Slda of tli Faiuoua
Ioubla llattlefloia of Cedar Creek Ceu.
John II. liortlon Throw New L'ght on
the Subject.
From the followiug utatement it appears
that had the battle been carried on according
to Gon. Gordon's plan, even Sheridan himself
could not have saved the day, though "he
rodo from Winchester, twenty miles away.
Gen. Gordon has still the look of a warrior
who could prove an ugly enemy en the bat
tlefield, though this chut with him in the
Gettysburg hotel demonstrated bin affability
aud winning qualities when recounting to a
formor foe the strange chain of events of that
wonderful day on the sinuous banks of Cedar
creek. The old rebel leader was seated at
table between Gen. Daniel E. Sickles and
Ofii. Hunt, the well known chief of artillery
of the Army of the Fotomac. Responding to
the salutation of The Herald representative,
Sen. Gordon oened the way at once for con
fersatioii. "General, I am told that the splendid bit
of strategy by which we were surprised on
the morning of the l'Jth of October is to be
w holly credited to youF
''Yes, the plan was mine wholly, and so
was the conduct of the tight up to a certain
point.
"For the time being we wono ne of the great
victories of the war. Every detail of the
movement was carefully planned, and for
twelve hours it was supremely successful. I
had gone the day before, Oct. 13, to the top
of what is called Massauutten mountain,
where we bad a signal corps stationed, and
bad taken observations through the field
glasses. There was a magnificent bird's eye
view. Tho Shenandoah was the silver bar
ttetween us. On the opposite side of the river
I could distinctly see the red cuffs of the
artillerists. Why, I had so good a view that
I could see the sore spots on the horses1 backs
in your camp. In front of the Belle Grove
mansion I could see members of Sheridan's
rtaff ooming and going. I could not imagine
better opportunity for making out an ene
my's riosition aud strength. 1 could even
count the men who were there. The camp
w as splendidly exposed to me. I marked the
position of the guns and the pickets walking
q nm) fro, and observed where the cavalry
was placed.
"It flashed upon me Instantly that the ex
pectation of Gen. Sheridan was that we
would attack him on his right, which was
tho only place supposed posoiblo for tho ad
vance of any army. His left was protected
by the Shenandoah; at this point the moun
tain was very precipitous, and the river ran
around it. There-was no road at all, and the
jioint was guarded only by a mere cavalry
picket. I saw our opportunity in an instant,
and I tqld the officers present that if Gen.
ICarly would i-crmit me to move my oon (I
ivas then commanding Ewell's corps) down to
ttiis kju could get around the mountain.
IVrth sides liclieved this was impossible, but I
felt sure that it could be done. My plau was
to dismount our cavalry, attack Sheridan's
cavalry when dismounted, and keep them
from moving. I knew that if we could do
this we wiuld gain a great victory."
C.F.X. COKDON'S PLAN'.
"What were the details of youc plan"
"There was a back road running from our
osition on Fisher's hill to the Federal right,
where the cavalry was posted. I expected to
UecuivB tLo Federals by Lo mux's attack. It
would bo dark still, and they could but uis
tiuguish our dismounted cavalry from in
fantry, and would believe that our main
ait(.V jvn there on their right. This would
leave us free to operate around their left."
"Howr did Gen. Early receive your ppj
posalT 'The plan was submitted, talked over, and
finally substantially agreed upon. I took
my command, having ordered them to leave
their canteens, sabers and ever3'thiug that
rouiu iake a noise behind. I knew that our
only dependence wa in absolute secrecy and
in a complete surprise. After inspecting
things with my staff I found I could get niy
men around the mountain by putting then)
in single file. I discovered still another
place where the horses could bo led, although
tho venture would be exceedingly dangerous.
iijtiJJ the expedition was essentially one of
'great peril, and lu? Gjt gauger was of
little consequence."
"How is it that the Union scouts had uevef
discovered this possibility of turning the leii
Rt Cedar creek V
.""?11. sharp men often leave a loophole in
war, ana. besides, Sheridan did not depend
on shutting up this possible putli,l suppose
replied Gen. tiordon.
You must remember, general, that Sheri
dan had issued orders which, had they been
obeyed by the officer coairiauding in his ab
eiiv, f oyd have rendered your surprise im
j-ossible."
"Cut taking things as they were, the sur
prise was not only possible but actual, and
we did what none of your people for a mo
ment df iatije4 of as possible. Early in the
night I began to move n;y njen around the
mountain. My object was to. have them
nil rcidy for an attack before daylight
jn tho inorniug. The movement took all
night. All through the hours of dark
r.cs the fcilent figures moved to theii
position near the sleeping enemy. An entire
brigade of cavalry was moved in this way,
and reached the point in about one and a hall
horns ia advance of the meu. I instructed
the cavalry tbat &i faon as I got ready to
move they were to proceed in my ftcnt, rvsl$
across the river, open on the cavalry pickets,
and capture them, if possible. If they could
not do fbis, they were to put their horses to
full speed, ride righf through the federal
camp, firing their pistols to the right nd to
the left as they passed through, and make
directly for Sheridan's headquarters and cap
ture him. At that time I did not know that
Sheridan as absent and Wright in com
mand. I had selected hi bpuse from the flags
which floated from it, and the couriers whp
were constantly going in and out
yllKOCGH TUX FEDERAL CAMP.
"My orders iryre: 'Go right through the
Federal camp with your cnunnnd before
daylight aud right to Gen. Sheridan's head
quarters. Capture him V I told them not to
try U take any prisoners, net to mind any
thing, but every mounted man was to press
straight toward Belle Grove. We, with the
infantry, would taks.carsAif what ca. h-
iiiud. I Vnew very well that the little fight
ing or capturing they could do would be of
little account ccuujareI with the prize they
were expected to get."
"Was there not danger of a premature
3nstt at some point f
"Ik-fore the movement began we had com
pared watches so that the attack might bo
tiuiultaucous."

behind hiui.aud they fell into our hands. We
killed and wounded between 7,(XK) and i,000
of the panic stricken and bewildered FedcraL
and broke two cors entirely to pieces. Tho
loss in my command was only about 200. ii v
sunri.so we occupied the breastworks. The
enemy's cavalry was forced to retreat before
Ilosser, although superior to him in numbers.
We did not press our advance. The eneni
still had the Sixth corj in reserve, but we
drove it back and captured & few of its
pieces. That was the battle of Cedar Creek,
aud it was a complete victory."
POSITION OF BOTH ARMIES.
"You' say you had gained a complete vic
tory. What was the position of the two
armies them1"
"The Eighth corps was scattered to the
winds, the Nineteenth corps, after hard
fighting, was routed aud driven entirely out
of their works, and we had )xssessioii of the
entire Federal position except a part of that
held by the Sixth corps. This corps had filed
out by the left toward the pike, and we had
drivei them back aud. forced then) to a ridge
just went of Middletown. We had the pike
away along up to the edge of Middletown,
and our ositiou was admirable every way."
"What was the real causo of the halt iu
your progress?"
"I will tell you, and there has leeii a great
deal of misunderstanding on this point. I
saw that the enemy had a strong position, but
that it was the last one they could lioid. We
had one f the fi:iest positions for Kit ing
irtillery I over saw. 'tl kw tho spot
riht on I he highest iohit of tho pike south
f Middletown, and east aud above Sheri
dan's headquarters. I called for Col. Carter,
the chief of artillery, and wanted thirty guns
ilantod rirhl there, and we would have bat
rered that Federal limsall to piece.:, dmora I-.;;-jd
an already leateii army, mid sent it in
itter panic down the valley."
"Why didn't yiv.i get your guns to work
n nsr"
"Yes, thcroV. tho ru'o. We did get a few
iwKgh to break tho line but here comes the
anie:itnhl-J feature of that day's business.

iien in plundering the Federal camp mid in

"That is the jiopu'.ar bflicf."
"Well, there i n't a word of truth in it
There never w.-.s less straggling or plunder
:ig among any troops than there was in our
si'iay thr.t mopiing. 1 had the;u well in
iriud, and had issued the strictest orders thai
;iiy soldier falling out for plunder should Ije
: .ot instantly. That who e statement is
'als?. The real trouble was hero. I was
naming every effort to get a mass of artillery
n iositio:i when Gen. Early rode u: lie
vas wild with joy. I csclajiuLij, 'Cjen. Early,
;:ve me thirty pieces of artillery right here
;nd we will destroy that army and send its
"ragi::ents over the Potomac' 1 knew that
.he supreme moment hail come."
GE.V. EARLY'S ELATION.
"What was Early's view of tho situation T
"'No, iu.;,' fftid h?. iYeV SViagreab
victory; we've oone enough for onoday; we
wiil stop lr.re.' 'But,' said I, 'let us finish
the job. It is true we fcave won a great vic
tory; let us complete it. We can do it in
an hour, and so destroy that army that it will
never show its head jn the valley igain.
But Gen. Kar.iy suid no; that the men had
seen fighting enough, and that we had won
glory enough for one day. 'Very well, sir,'
I replied; 'then I will return to my com
mand.' Until then I had had charge of the
entire movement on the right. 1 did return
to my corps, and Early carried oh 'the bat
tle. We 'followed "up the Federals as they
retreated. Our meu were too much elated
with their victory."
To the question as to Early's personal con
dition that morning Gen. Gordon gave no
reply.
I 'Ho did the battle fhar.gof'
"Everybody knows about 'how Sheridan
reached the field iu the nick of time, and
how he came thundering down from Winches
ter, lie found his men scattered along the
road ia terror stricken ponfusion. and he
compelled them to turn about and follow
him. He was a fury on horseback, dashing
here and there among the flying soldiers and
beating them back to the field of death which
they bad ouitted. Meanwhile, the men who
were retreating from the front bad been
brought to some sort of order. Then fol
lowed one of the most extraordinary revers
als iu the history of any war. As soon as
Sheridan reached the field he reformed bis
line and practiced upon us precisely the same
movement which bad demoralized his own
forces in the morning, lie just moved around
our flank, swept down it aud whipped us out
of existence. lie broke our line all to frag
ments and routed tu whole army absolutely.
It was as thorough a defeat as I ever saw!
Tho day bad dawned upon victory and ex
ultation. It closed upon utter disaster and
dejection. Two distinct battles had been
fought, and in the last we lost all tbat we
had gained in the first one and all that we
had before. The reaction was dramatic iu
its suddeness and completeness, and when we
left the field that evening the Confederacy
Lad rtif-ed from the Shenandoah. It was
our last fight in the valley. r Boston Herald,

HINTS FOR BOYS.
REMEMBER YOU HAVE BUT ONE
CHANCE IN LIFE.
Make the Most of Tour Opportunity The
Need of Self Knowledge Smother Out
Kril Habits with Those of the Oppoklte
Kind Self Control.
What boys need is a few hints in the art of
living. Mistakes made early in life go on
with us, either to be fought with through
valuable years or else to wreck our chances.
You want, or need to want, first of all, to
ee clearly tbat you have but one chance in
life to make the most of yourself only once
that you can go over the ground; and j'ou
must be sure and positive as to what you are
doing. Then it will never hurt any boy to
stop and see how - very few do have a fair
sort of life; and then consider why so large
a proportion of human beings have a ietty,
low, or even brutal piano to live on.
The next thing that I am quito suro a
young chap needs is to got a good glimpse of
himself. This is not the hardest task i'l the
world, aitnougu some r.::;..c- ;.iii.jjp.i3U
ment very difficult. A good deal of self
kuowledge can bo obtained by a quiet con
sideration and moderate estimates of what we
like to do, to be, and with whom wo like to
associate. And one who really wishes can
find out his special dangers, and his special
advantages and powers. Ho can know if he
is liable to hasty outbreaks of temper, or to
sensuality; or is naturally revengeful, or
fickle, or envious. Can any one tell us why
a person shall not go to work uion himself
as ho would ut anything else; to change and
modify, and eradicate tho evil and increase
the good There is no property more directly
our own than ourselves; and it is every hour
reshaped by our wills. But tho liest plan
does not seem to be to try to kill out evil in
our dispositions, but to give cultivation to
i-ho good. The evil will get smothered out.
Farmers have a way of going through
their corn ouco with a hoo to cut off weeds.
But when tho corn is well up ami strong they
only go through to stir the soil and hill up
tho stalks. Tiiey say tho corn itself will kill
Ihe weeds. It depcsiiliJ on which gets the
best start. If you give your weeds the best
chance they will como out ahead iu the char
acter. But if you give good willing the bet
ter start very shortly it will overshadow evil,
and you will have little, trouble. I have
known people, young and old, work on the
other plan, spending a great deal of time in
remorse and repentance. All which is non
sense and time wasted. They only grow
weaker willed and punier iu character. No
one gets a hard job done by regretting that
he bos done something else. So take my ad
vice iu this matter and simply go to work
aud koep to work, cultivating fine things. If
evil habits are formed, don't fight them, but
smother them with the opposite. To tell you
the truth, what set me to writing this article
was a very doleful letter from a reader, who
is miserably eating up his time and his force
on remorse. Flau something noblo, my boy!
Get at sqmetUing useful, and always bo cheer
ful about it. ihe Greeks had a name for
honorable men, tbat is men of the right sort;
they called them "upward lookers." The
finest thing one can be is to be an upward
looker.
Unless one has self control, or control of
self, of courso some one else has control of
him. It is quito a study, and a study well
worth the while, to. find out who really is in
control of us. It is not impossible that, when
you think it well over, you will see that it is
a very contemptible lout who is ruling you.
A boy said to me not long ago: "I have inado
up my mind that if I carmot rule, myself 1
shall never amount to anything." To be
sure, lad, you will not amount to anything
unless the ono who mles you is a very noble
person, and if ho is that, ho will only aim to
teach you to control 3-ourself. There is
something very grand about n, veil man
aged Ixidy antl mind. There is no other
such property in the world.
I think very few boya ever have any idea
how much they are good for. The result ia
they aim for something quite too cheap and
small. What a world this would be if all the
millions born into the world each year ghould
do their best The wprst of all ideas is a bad
or insignificant notion of life a cheap notion.
If you get a good ideal ox life to aim at yon
have at least a right purpose. Does this
sound too much like preaching? If it does,
some preaching is just what we all need.
Like a preacher, I now make another point.
It ought to be Very stroriarly emphasized;
that is, learn to like good company, if I
were sure you had been brought up just
right, I would put it this way, "Never learn
to like bad company." I do not at ail mean
to seek always to bo with piou people peo
ple of high strung goodness and generally
of the goody goodness sort. I da not know
more damaging people than those who are
all the time worried about their neighbors.
There is, however, a law of nature that we
become like those with whom we associate.
It is a fixed law, and sometimes seems a great
pity, because weak witted, persons iind it so
fUfEcult tij gei away from strong leaders. 1
am quite sure I have seen one boy lead
twenty of his mates, and almost tako control
of them. So far as I can judge, about ouo
person in twenty is a born leader ; the rest
are naturally foiiuivers. If you have an
ambition to lead, and are high spirited, take
care not to be selfish, but to be generous in
leading. If you arc naturally led, then of
course you must be careful who leads you.
Some people are made up as boys tnako a
snow man each boy puts on a handful of
snow. So I have seen a person made up of
bits of everybody about him; a notion from
Tom Jones, a prejudice from another, a bo
lief from another, a habit from, another
and, all in all, a queer bodge podge. M.
