I am Major Dudley Arkell, he said to Colonel Lyon, who received the surrender.

I am Colonel Lyon, of the Riverlawn Cavalry of Kentucky.

I am proud to know you, Colonel Lyon, and I have heard of the Riverlawns before. They were pitted against some relatives of mine at Stone River,--a captain and a lieutenant, who were captured by your force. In behalf of these men I have surrendered to you, and who are not my own command, I request that you will treat them with consideration.

I shall do the best I can for them--I do that for all prisoners, answered Colonel Lyon, soberly.
