Different in their natures, John being hopeful, and Frank inclined to fits of blues, they were equally brave and unselSsh. It was after the sorry failure at Ball's Bluff when, after swimming the Potomac they spent the night in their old Maryland camp, thankful that tne merciless bullets which sank many nf their comrades spared them, that they got their first shock as to the sweet- ness and glory of dying for one's coun- try, yet both settling down to their grim determination to go to the bit- t...er end along the line they started on, although John blamed no one for the disaster, while Frank bitterly de- nounced the military criminality of a general who would cross a river to fight without a way of successful re- treat. Their near call to death put them in a serious mood, and like many another Damon and Pythias of the war, they made postmortem arrange- ment should either of them fall in che next battle, that the survivor, should there be one, would see that the dead was identifyingly buried, or, if wound- ed, have the needed care, and word sent to the anxious ones at home.
