Lee and saluted. When the general saluted in turn, and asked what he could do for him, the officer pointed to a distant height on which was a group of soldiers, saying: | "I think, general, that I in take | that hill now if I have your per- mission to try." "I'believe that you would succeed now," Gen Lee gravely replied, "There is only one thing that re- strains me from giving you 'permis- | sion.

Lee never let a day pasg with- out personally visiting some part of his lines. He thoroughly believed that on€ must see for himself that his orders are obeyed. One day, at Petersburg, Lee stopped at the quar- ters of one of his major-generals and asked him to ride with him. On the way, Lee asked the ma jor-general if 4 certain work he had ordered done had been completed. The major-gen- eral replied, with some hesitation, that it was completed. Lee glanced swiftly into his face, and mildly sug- | gested that they go and see it. i When they arrived at the works, | Lee saw they were little more ad- | vanced than they were the week be- | fore. Th® major-general was profuse in his apologies, declaring that he | lif had not seen the work in persan, but ' kindl iil had taken the word of ome of his He re majors that it was completed. Lee said nothing then except to mark quietly: "We must give our personed at- tention to the lines." But riding on a little further, Lee complimented the major-general up- on the splendid horse he rode. "Yes, sir," the general flushed with pleasure. - "He is a splendid animal, and I prize him all the more highly because he belongs to my wife, and is her favorite riding horse." ¢ "A magnificent animal!"

Another student was a very lazy fellow, bright but always "careful of himself." One day Lee had occasion to ask him to call at the office, "How is your mother?"
