There
was
frank
contempt
in
Jeems
'
voice
.
His
own
social
status
was
assured
because
the
Tarletons
owned
a
hundred
negroes
and
,
like
all
slaves
of
large
planters
,
he
looked
down
on
small
farmers
whose
slaves
were
few
.
"
I
'm
going
to
beat
your
hide
off
for
that
,
"
cried
Stuart
fiercely
.
Do
n't
you
call
Abel
Wynder
'
po

.
'
Sure
he
's
poor
,
but
he
ai
n't
trash
;
and
I
'm
damned
if
I
'll
have
any
man
,
darky
or
white
,
throwing
off
on
him
.
There
ai
n't
a
better
man
in
this
County
,
or
why
else
did
the
Troop
elect
him
lieutenant
?
"
"
Ah
ain
'
never

"
replied
Jeems
,
undisturbed
by
his
master
's
scowl
.
"
Look

"
"
He
ai
n't
trash
!
Do
you
mean
to
compare
him
with
real
white
trash
like
the
Slatterys
?
Able
just
ai
n't
rich
.
He
's
a
small
farmer
,
not
a
big
planter
,
and
if
the
boys
thought
enough
of
him
to
elect
him
lieutenant
,
then
it
's
not
for
any
darky
to
talk
impudent
about
him
.
The
Troop
knows
what
it
's
doing
.
"
The
troop
of
cavalry
had
been
organized
three
months
before
,
the
very
day
that
Georgia
seceded
from
the
Union
,
and
since
then
the
recruits
had
been
whistling
for
war
.
The
outfit
was
as
yet
unnamed
,
though
not
for
want
of
suggestions
.
Everyone
had
his
own
idea
on
that
subject
and
was
loath
to
relinquish
it
,
just
as
everyone
had
ideas
about
the
color
and
cut
of
the
uniforms
.

"
Fire
Eaters
,
"
"
North
Georgia
Hussars
,
"
"
Zouaves
,
"
"
The
Inland
Rifles
"
(
although
the
Troop
was
to
be
armed
with
pistols
,
sabers
and
bowie
knives
,
and
not
with
rifles
)
,
"
The
Clayton
Grays
,
"
"
The
Blood
and
Thunderers
,
"
"
The
Rough
and
Readys
,
"
all
had
their
adherents
.
Until
matters
were
settled
,
everyone
referred
to
the
organization
as
the
Troop
and
,
despite
the
high-sounding
name
finally
adopted
,
they
were
known
to
the
end
of
their
usefulness
simply
as
"
The
Troop
.
"
The
officers
were
elected
by
the
members
,
for
no
one
in
the
County
had
had
any
military
experience
except
a
few
veterans
of
the
Mexican
and
Seminole
wars
and
,
besides
,
the
Troop
would
have
scorned
a
veteran
as
a
leader
if
they
had
not
personally
liked
him
and
trusted
him
.
Everyone
liked
the
four
Tarleton
boys
and
the
three
Fontaines
,
but
regretfully
refused
to
elect
them
,
because
the
Tarletons
got
lickered
up
too
quickly
and
liked
to
skylark
,
and
the
Fontaines
had
such
quick
,
murderous
tempers
.
Ashley
Wilkes
was
elected
captain
,
because
he
was
the
best
rider
in
the
County
and
because
his
cool
head
was
counted
on
to
keep
some
semblance
of
order
.
Raiford
Calvert
was
made
first
lieutenant
,
because
everybody
liked
Raif
,
and
Able
Wynder
,
son
of
a
swamp
trapper
,
himself
a
small
farmer
,
was
elected
second
lieutenant
.
Abel
was
a
shrewd
,
grave
giant
,
illiterate
,
kind
of
heart
,
older
than
the
other
boys
and
with
as
good
or
better
manners
in
the
presence
of
ladies
.
There
was
little
snobbery
in
the
Troop
.
Too
many
of
their
fathers
and
grandfathers
had
come
up
to
wealth
from
the
small
farmer
class
for
that
.
Moreover
,
Able
was
the
best
shot
in
the
Troop
,
a
real
sharpshooter
who
could
pick
out
the
eye
of
a
squirrel
at
seventy-five
yards
,
and
,
too
,
he
knew
all
about
living
outdoors
,
building
fires
in
the
rain
,
tracking
animals
and
finding
water
.
The
Troop
bowed
to
real
worth
and
moreover
,
because
they
liked
him
,
they
made
him
an
officer
.
He
bore
the
honor
gravely
and
with
no
untoward
conceit
,
as
though
it
were
only
his
due
.
But
the
planters
'
ladies
and
the
planters
'
slaves
could
not
overlook
the
fact
that
he
was
not
born
a
gentleman
,
even
if
their
men
folks
could
.
