Several
of
the
proud
mothers
of
members
of
the
militia
were
standing
close
by
and
overheard
the
remark
.
Mrs.
Guinan
turned
scarlet
and
then
white
,
for
her
twenty-five-year-old
Willie
was
in
the
company
.
Scarlett
was
aghast
at
such
words
coming
from
Melly
of
all
people
.
"
Why
,
Melly
!

You
know
it
's
true
,
Scarlet
.
I
do
n't
mean
the
little
boys
and
the
old
gentlemen
.
But
a
lot
of
the
militia
are
perfectly
able
to
tote
a
rifle
and
that
's
what
they
ought
to
be
doing
this
minute
.
"
"
But
--
but
--
"
began
Scarlett
,
who
had
never
considered
the
matter
before
.
"
Somebody
's
got
to
stay
home
to
--
"
What
was
it
Willie
Guinan
had
told
her
by
way
of
excusing
his
presence
in
Atlanta
?
"
Somebody
's
got
to
stay
home
to
protect
the
state
from
invasion
.
"
"
Nobody
's
invading
us
and
nobody
's
going
to
,
"
said
Melly
coolly
,
looking
toward
a
group
of
the
militia
.
"
And
the
best
way
to
keep
out
invaders
is
to
go
to
Virginia
and
beat
the
Yankees
there
.
And
as
for
all
this
talk
about
the
militia
staying
here
to
keep
the
darkies
from
rising
--
why
,
it
's
the
silliest
thing
I
ever
heard
of
.
Why
should
our
people
rise
?
It
's
just
a
good
excuse
for
cowards
.
I
'll
bet
we
could
lick
the
Yankees
in
a
month
if
all
the
militia
of
all
the
states
went
to
Virginia
.
So
there
!
"
"
Why
,
Melly
!
"
cried
Scarlett
again
,
staring
.

Melly
's
soft
dark
eyes
were
flashing
angrily
.
"
My
husband
was
n't
afraid
to
go
and
neither
was
yours
.
And
I
'd
rather
they
'd
both
be
dead
than
here
at
home
--
Oh
,
darling
,
I
'm
sorry
.
How
thoughtless
and
cruel
of
me
!
"
She
stroked
Scarlett
's
arm
appealingly
and
Scarlett
stared
at
her
.
But
it
was
not
of
dead
Charles
she
was
thinking
.
It
was
of
Ashley
.
Suppose
he
too
were
to
die
?
She
turned
quickly
and
smiled
automatically
as
Dr.
Meade
walked
up
to
their
booth
.
"
Well
,
girls
,
"
he
greeted
them
,
"
it
was
nice
of
you
to
come
.
I
know
what
a
sacrifice
it
must
have
been
for
you
to
come
out
tonight
.
But
it
's
all
for
the
Cause
.
And
I
'm
going
to
tell
you
a
secret
.
I
've
a
surprise
way
for
making
some
more
money
tonight
for
the
hospital
,
but
I
'm
afraid
some
of
the
ladies
are
going
to
be
shocked
about
it
.
