Excerpt from *General Nelson's Scout* :

"Had slightly pressed its Signet sage, Yet had not quenched the open truth And fiery vehemence of youth; Forward and frolic glee was there, The will to do, the soul to dare.

All military movements chronicled in the S are historically correct. The riot in Louisville, fight for the arms, the foiling of the plot, the t ing of the train from the track, are all his incidents."
