" Somers then related the history of the affair in the house where they were then assembled, and that which occurred in the rebel lines. Major Riggleston listened to THE FORTUNES OF A STAFF OFFICER. 175 the narrative with deep interest, as did Mrs. Somers, whose husband had gone with Alick to examine the battle-field of Autietam and South Mountain. " Sakes alive ! who ever heard of such things ! " ex- claimed Mrs. Somers, when her son had finished his exciting story. " It's a wonder that you wa...n't killed, Thomas.
