Pulling Laughing face upon serious
u,auer.-While General Jackson was operat-
ing in the Creek country, he invariably gave
orders that all encampments should be made
near the main body of the army, as well for
safety, as to prevent surprise and alarm; but
he had one officer, Capt g., who, although
brave man, was rather lawless, and disposed
to prowl and bush-whack" about on his own
hook and account. When the camp fires were
lighted at night his would frequently be seen
off on some hill by itself, mile, perhaps, from
the others, and in very exposed situation.
Gen. Jackson finally got as tired Of giving his
orders in relation to encampment, as Capt. G.
was Of receiving them; and seeing his fire one
night on a distant hill, the commander sent
an aid to arrest the brave but eccentric officer


captain G., l am ordered TO take your
sword from YOU"


"You are"


"I am" .....


"Well, take the sword to General Jackson,
and tell him to keep the rusty old thing |
only gave dollar and half for it when new,
and know where can get one twice as good
tomorrow Tor the same money" The Gen.
was so well pleased with his independent
manner, that he returned his sword immedi-
ately.
