Annals of the Army of the Cumberland : comprising biographies, descriptions of departments, accounts of expeditions, skirmishes, and battles ; also its police record of spies, smugglers, and prominent rebel emissaries ... and official reports of the battle of Stone River and of the Chickamauga Campaign . , is the author. On the night of the 29th of December, whenthe division bivouacked on Stewarts Creek, Lieutenant MiUards wife badehim good-bye. We expected to go into battle next morning. LieutenantMillard reclined on a shock of corn, looking into the blue skies, thinking ofhis wife, —for soldiers think of wives and little ones at such periods. Hiscomrades were speculating on the chances of battle, now and then expressingamiable envy that MiUard could sleep so soundly. Suddenly he sprangfrom his couch, and, calling Lieutenant Pirtle, he repeated the result of hisfancies to him, in verse, which he entitled Whisper Good-Night, Love.Tuesday night (30th of December), while the division was bivouacked in frontof Murfreesborough, he composed and arranged the music for the piano.The next day five hundred and eight of Millards comrades were bleeding onthe field of battle. I dont know what our music-loving lady friends maythink of our soldiers song; but indeed it touches soldiers hearts. 4, . • Fri©E^S OEF STAEF2F„ J B LIPPINCOTT & CO PHIL AD A Ulajor-Cfucral Sixwm ^.
