General Hugh A. .Drum, at a banquet i n Washington, recently,
pointed out the necessity for harmony in the Army. In carrying
home his point he related the story of General Bragg* Most of
the sil er-haired or hairless readers of the Chilkoot Post ha e
dozed o er this one, hut for the benefit of the younger ones, we
offer the tale as it is;
~J n the Mexican War7*, related General Drum, wGeneral Bragg,
then a first lieutenant, acted in his captain*s absence as company
commander and at the same time as Post Quartermaster and Commissary*
It is quite e ident that win addition to his other duties” was also
the battle cry of the Mexican Wqr as well as of the present one, B
”As Company Commadre, Lieut. Bragg made a requisition to the
Quartermaster— himself--for something that he wanted. As Quarter
master he refused to fill the bill and endorsed thereon his reasons
for decliningt As Company Commander he responded to this urging
that the requisition be filled as it called for nothing that he
was not entitled to and it was the duty of the Quartermaster to
fill it. As Quartermaster, he told himself that he knew his duties
as Quartermaster and no Company Commander could tell him where to
heai in, at* etc.,”
"In tills condition of' affairs, ^General Bragg*-, then Lieutenant',' ~

the correspondence/ exclaimed:. I
