WILLIAM M. MITCHELL.

William M. Mitchell; is twenty-five years of age; he reside at Port Elizabeth, Cumberland County, N.J.; was a glass blower by occupation. Enlisted on the 14th of September, 1861, in company K, Tenth regiment New Jersey volunteers, at Beverly. He served as a private throughout the war. He enlisted for three years, and served seven mouths and eleven days over his time, on account of being in prison at the expiration of my term.

He was captured in the Wilderness on the morning of the 7th of May, 1864, by Ewell’s corps, the Twenty-second Virginia regiment. He was confined at different times in Lynchburg and Danville, Virginia, Andersonville, Georgia, and Florence, South Carolina. While in the hands of the old troops, he received as good treatment as he could have, under the circumstances, with the exception of the eighth day, when he had scarcely anything to eat, and was marched a distance of twenty miles to Orange Court House, Virginia. At Lynchburg, he was threatened that if he undertook to break the lines, they would fire upon him from a battery on the bill, with grape and canister. The commander of the prison was Captain Shun; the post commander was General Nichols. The other officers he could not remember. Captain Shun appeared to be a very fine man; he would talk with him and promise to do whatever he could for him. He hungry all the time. He was in Lynchburg about a week; then was sent to Danville, Virginia. His treatment at Danville was similar to that at Lynchburg. He was put into a tobacco warehouse and the guards had orders that if he spoke to any one from the windows he would be fired on.

His rations there consisted of corn-bread, a little rice, soup, a small piece of bacon, for one day. He remained there only six days, then was taken to Anilersonville. He arrived at Andersonville on time 28th of May, 1864. He was at once examined and sent inside of the stockade. He was placed in charge of thirty-three, to draw and issue rations for them, one sergeant being in command of a hundred, he drawing from the rebel quartermaster and corps commissary, and he drew from these Union sergeants. His rations generally consisted of corn meal, not sufficiently ground for food for soldiers, bacon, rice, and beans, he had fresh meat sometimes. The bacon that he got was of a very poor quality, and he should think would create disease. The rice was very poor, and the beans were not fit to eat. The corn meal had been, undoubtedly, ground up, cobs and all. Sometimes he got molasses, and that was very good; but when he got molasses he got no meat, he had a small quantity of molasses in place of meat. He suffered with hunger most from about the 1st of July, 1864, until he were transferred to Florence, South Carolina, in the middle of September. The quality was poor and the quantity was small. Toward the last part of that time he scarcely got any meat, and as a substitute they gave him molasses.

He was taken from Andersonville, on the 15th of September, 1864, He was transferred to Florence, South Carolina, arriving there on the 17th. His treatment there was similar to that at Andersonville in every respect; but our rations were smaller in quantity, although, perhaps, a little better in quality. At one time, at Florence, the camp was fifty-seven days without a mouthful of meat. his rations consisted of rice, beaus, corn bread, or corn meal. When he first went there, there were no rations at the commissary for him. The rebels themselves went into the country, to the different farm-houses, and collected corn bread, corn cake, and eatables of all kinds that they could get hold of, for the prisoners. He was later sent to Amiapolis, Maryland, about the 1st of March, 1865. He was taken sick with a fever, On his arrival at Annapolis, Maryland, he was sick with typhoid fever, and was carried off the boat by four soldiers, and was unconscious, and he knew nothing more for two or three weeks, when he woke he found himself at Jarvis Hospital at Baltimore.

Myron W Tilson, of South Hanson, Massachusetts, late ensign in the United
States volunteer navy.

I was captured at Murrell’s Inlet, South Carolina, with fourteen sailors. I was robbed of all the personal property in my possession; was placed in charge of General White, who consoled me with the thought that it was lucky for us that we were not all murdered. The men were forced to march, with their hands tied behind I heir backs, to Georgetown, South Carolina, where we received the first food during forty-eight hours. We were sent to Charleston, South Carolina, delivered over to Captain Geyer, and lodged in jail. We were confined thus for three weeks. We were given about three quarts of cracked corn, boiled, and four small bottles of water, per day, for fifteen men. I was sent
to Columbia, South Carolina. This post was commanded by Major C. 1). Melton, afterward by Colonel Green.

Captain Harris, of Fourth Tennessee cavalry, was here confined in irons, as he was for two years, under sentence of death, which, however, was never carried into effect. After remaining in Columbia about three weeks, all the noncommissioned officers and privates were sent first to Belle Isle and afterward to the slaughter pen at Andersonville. under command of the monster Wirz, where, in four months, under the starvation policy, eleven of my fourteen men, captured with me, died. While at Columbia all the privates that were then there, some forty or fifty, ‘were placed in irons for refusing to clean up the filth and dirt made by the confederate conscripts. They were finally compelled to obey the degrading order to escape starvation.

David C Mechan, of West Duxbury, Massachusetts, late a private Company E,
Eighteenth, Massachusetts infantry.

I was captured at he battle of the Wilderness, in May, 1864. I was ten months at Andersonville and Florence. There is so much of horror, misery, and suffering connected with my experience that it would be impossible for me even to give an outline of it. I have seen some quotations from the testimony in the Wirz trial, and I never saw a misstatement or exaggeration; in fact, no man could tell half the brutality practiced at Andersouville. Hundreds of poor fellows, reduced to mere skeletons, moving about to get their pint of cob meal, some on their hands and knees, many of whom I have seen eat it raw, their excessive hunger not allowing them to wait until they could cook it. Thousands of such scenes are fresh in my mind. How I lived through it, God only knows.

WEST DUXBURY, MASSACHUSETTS, August 26, 1867.

C. W. Parker, of Bolton, Massachusetts, late first sergeant Company I, Sixteenth
Connecticut volunteers.


I was captured at Plymouth, North Carolina, and kept a prisoner ten months. An account of the sufferings experienced and witnessed by me would fill a book. I was in the prisons at Andersouville, Charleston, and Florence. I was occasionally outside of the stockade and at Wirz’s headquarters, and assert that the current accounts of the punishments inflicted and the cruelties practiced are reliable. During the winter of 1864 and 1865 I was in the prison at Florence. It was under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Iverson, and his worse than brute subordinate, Lieutenant Barrett, of the Fifth Georgia regiment. The treatment was in many respects far worse than at Andersonville. In the matter of rations, wantonly shooting prisoners, infliction of kicks and blows upon the sick by the officers when inside of the stockade, having been in both prisons, I may safely risk my word in saying they were fir worse than at Andersonville. I was beaten on the head with a club, by order of Lieutenant Barrett, which came near ending my life. We were at one time one hundred days without meat of any kind. I have seen prisoners shot for asking the guard for a chew of tobacco. A comrade of mine, a mere boy, the son of a widowed mother, was shot because he wan too weak to get to the sink. When emaciated by disease and starvation to such an extent that it seemed impossible for me to recover, I was sent through the lines, to be exchanged.

BOLTON, MASSACHUSETTS, August 26, 1867.

John Connelly, of Conway, Massachusetts, late a private of Company E, Fifty-seventh Massachusetts volunteers.

I was captured at Spottsylvauia Court House, Virginia, May 11, 1864. We were kept three days at the railroad depot, after having been robbed of clothing, money, pocket- knives, tobacco, and whatever our captors desired in our possession. During the three (lays we received one ear of green corn for each luau. We were sent to Libby Prison, where we remained seven weeks, and were then sent by rail to Audersonville, in freight ears, sixty-five men in each. We were seven days on the road. From bad treatment and want of food many died on the way, who were thrown out and left by the road-side. I was kept in the same car, and wan let out but once during the seven days. Five men died in the car I was in. I wan kept in Andersonville three months. Of the sufferings and privations there I cannot write. the worst that has been told fails to give a correct idea of what we suffered. We could not have suffered more; it was worse than death. I, with others, wan paroled in South Carolina; a few of us let out at a time. We had to make our way, as best we could, to the Union lines. The negroes were our only friends; they gave us the best they had.
JOHN CONNELLY.
CONWAY, MASSACHUSETTS, October 4, 1867.

Freeman S. Bowley, of Springfield, Massachusetts, late first lieutenant in the Thirtieth United States colored infantry.

I was captured July 30, 1864, at Petersburg. I have been confined at Petersburg, Danville, Greensboro, Charlotte, Raleigh, Goldsboro, Salisbury, Richland jail, and Columbia. I know of the death of one officer who was hunted down with bloodhounds; of two officers shot down when not near the dead-line; of a private of an Ohio regiment who wan shot after being recaptured and was making no attempt to escape; of wounded men being knocked down because they could not hurry into a cattle-car; to say nothing of a long list of filthy rations, of being crowded into cattle cars filled with filth, scarcity of water, and of officers and men being knocked down and robbed, and lying on the frozen ground without shelter, fire, or rations.

Francis McCabe, of Ballardville, Massachusetts, late private Company H, First
Massachusetts heavy artillery.

I was captured October 27, 1864, at hatch’s Run. Was confined in Libby Prison four mouths. When captured I was severely wounded in right knee. Was kept three days without food before being sent to the hospital. I was kicked three times by Sergeant Stencel because unable, in my wounded condition, to get out of the way. was robbed of all my money and most of my clothes.

BALLARIDVILLE, MASSACHUSETTS, November 4, 1867.

Simon Hardy, of Natick, Massachusetts.

I was a corporal of Company I, Thirty-ninth Massachusetts volunteers. Was captured on the Weldon railroad August 19, 1864, and was a prisoner seven months. Was marched to Richmond, where we were stripped naked and searched for valuables, which were all taker from us. Was kept at Belle Isle four weeks. The allowance of food was entirely too small when issued, and was often withheld on the slightest pretext. Was taken to Salisbury in freight cars packed to their utmost capacity. Was kept in the open air three months. Were without bread or meat of any kind very frequently. having nothing but a pint of rice soup. This place was commanded by Major Gee. I suffered everything possible, except death, for food, shelter, and clothing; when released I was attacked by a fearful sickness, caused by ill-treatment while a prisoner, from which I have never fully recovered. Men were shot dead with the slightest provocation. Five thousand and forty-six men died at this prison in five months. They died by scores every day, and were carried out as logs of wood, piled on a wagon like dead hogs, and buried in a continuous ditch.
SIMON HARDY.
NATICK, MASSACHUSETTS, October 27, 1867.

Marcus P. Russell, of West Hanover, Massachusetts.

I was corporal of Company K, Thirty-eighth Massachusetts volunteers. Was taken prisoner October 19, 1864, at battle of Cedar Creek, Virginia. We were robbed of our shoes, hats, knives, money, &c., as soon as captured. We were hurried into line with many a curse, and were beaten with muskets and clubs by the guard. We were marched to Richmond. Men beaten and bayoneted to make them keep up, while too sick, were shot down when they fell out. We were put into a building opposite Libby Prison. Our first order was to fall into line to be counted. We were pounded into places to suit the fiends in-charge of us. We were then made to strip off our clothing, which they searched thoroughly, taking away everything they found, and, in many instances, even the clothing itself. This was done by order of the provost marshal. We were conveyed to Salisbury in cattle-cars which had not been cleaned out; but our sufferings had hardly begun; our first night at Salisbury we were without shelter in a fearful storm, cold, wet, and hungry, no fire to warm by, shot at and abused by the guard for violating rules, which we knew nothing of. Night, with the groans of the sick and dying, past away, to reveal a sight by daylight greater horror. The ground was strewn with the dead and dying sunken in the mud. In this den men were shot for picking up the sweepings of the cook-house. Were shot at night while going to attend to the calls of nature; shot for getting too near the fence; and threatened with death if we complained of our treatment. The hospital department of the prison was very small; many died in the tents, with nothing hut the cold ground for a lied Their comrades could do nothing for them for they were in like condition, Some would crawl from their shelters but to die, Many died from freezing, in addition to starvation. Our rations, issued by order of Major Gee, was a half pound of bread per day; meat three times per mouth: molasses twice per month; occasionally rice and vinegar. We had no conveniences or opportunity for washing our clothes. I have gathered bones and charred them in the fire so that I could eat them to satisfy hunger.
MARCUS P. RUSSELL, WEST HANOVER, MASSACHUSETTS, December 12, 1867.

George W. Anderson, of Kingfield, Maine.

I was a private in the Sixteenth Maine volunteers. Was twice captured. First at Gettysburg, ,July 1, 1863, together with one hundred and twenty-five officers and three thousand enlisted men. Marched to Richmond, one hundred and seventy-five miles. No rations were issued to us from July 1 to the 4th, then we were given one pint of flour and a little fresh beef, with no salt or means to cook it. If we stepped out of the ranks for any purpose we were bayoneted by the guard. We were robbed of our blankets, money, and other private property. Our rations at the Belle Isle, where we were taken, was half a pound of bread and one pint of slop called bean soup. I was again captured August 19, 1864, on the Weldon railroad. Was taken to Libby Prison and robbed of money, clothing, tobacco, and everything of value in our possession. We were contained on Belle Isle five weeks; the rations same as before. From Belle Ii*le Were sent to Salisbury, North Carolina; were three (lays on the way entirely without food. No shelter was given us. ‘We had one stick of wood ten feet long by ten inches through given us for ten men; this we had to split with wooden wedges avid stones, and made a saw of an old case-knife. Many had their feet frozen so badly that they had to be amputated. The ration was less and of poorer quality than at Belle Isle. From fifteen to twenty men died every day. They were taken by the head and heels and thrown into a wagon like dead Logs, and were buried in a long ditch.
GEORGE W. ANDERSON, NEW PORTLAND, MAINE, August 4, 1867.

Horace Burbank of Limerick, Maine.

I was captain Thirty-second Maine volunteers. Was captured July30, 1864, in front of Petersburg, and was sent to Columbia, South Carolina. After we were captured we Were robbed of watches, money, and pocket-knives. Those who had good boots, hats, or coats, were stripped of them; at night they took our canteens from those who had them, even the wounded. In August one pint of meal was issued to us per day, this was gradually decreased in quantity and quality until we received but three pints for five days, which appeared as if ground cob and corn together. During August we had one-sixth of a pound of bacon per man, after that none at all was issued; occasionally we had a little salt and sorghum molasses. The bacon issued to us was usually so full of skippers that we had to dissect it carefully and scrape it before eating. I have seen potato parings and gristle, thrown away by some of those who were fortunate enough to have means to buy food, eagerly devoured by the less fortunate. I sold buttons from any clothing, my hat, &e., to buy bread. Many would sell boots,’ vests, suspenders, &c., to buy something to eat. I have been unable for weeks to go to the washing trough on account of weakness produced by scurvy sores, caused by want of wholesome food.
HORACE BURBANK, Late Captain Thirty-second Maine volunteers.
Limerick, MAINE, November 1, 1867.

George N. Bliss, late Captain Company C, First Rhode Island Cavalry.

September 28, 1864, while leading a cavalry charge at Waynesboro, in the valley of the Shenandoah, Virginia, I was wounded and taken prisoner. My horse having been shot down and myself wounded, I said to a soldier who had just given me a saber cut across the face, “For God’s sake don’t kill a prisoner.” He replied, “Surrender, then.” I said, “I do surrender,” and gave him my saber. Regardless of my defenseless condition as a prisoner, one of them stabbed me in the lungs with a saber, and another was taking aim at me with a revolver, when I called for protection to a rebel officer, who interfered and saved my life. The next day, September 29, I was placed on a flat ear and taken to Charlottesville. After remaining some two weeks in Charlottesville, my wounds were nearly healed, and, in accordance with orders from Richmond, I was sent to Libby Prison. The exposure of traveling caused one of my wounds to open, and I was placed in Libby Prison hospital, where I remained until December 7, on which day I was returned to general quarters. On the 9th of December I was selected as a hostage fir a rebel private soldier sentenced by the United States government to be hung, and placed in a cell with the cheerful assurance that my body should be suspended by the neck promptly in case the rebel aforesaid should be hung. I was requested to write to my friends in order that my influence might, if possible, save the necessity of a double execution. There were ten officers confined in the cells under Libby at that time as hostages. In my cell there were five of us; the room was ten feet by twelve; we had two pails, one containing water for drinking, and the other usually contained human excrement, since one or more of the party was constantly afflicted with the diarrhea, and the pail was emptied only twice in twenty-four hours. The cell also contained a small stove. This was all the furniture when we entered. The cell was lighted by one-half of a small well window, over which was placed a kind of roof to prevent the rain from driving in upon us, since there was no glass in the window. The cell was, therefore, so dark that one could not read long at a time without pain in the eyes. We all presented a ghastly appearance when again allowed to breathe free air. After forty-five days in the cell, arrangements for an exchange of hostages having been consummated, we were released and placed with the other prisoners (officers) in the second story of the building, and on the 5th day of February, 1S65, sent down the James River en route to God’s country, as we always called the North; that was, and I believe will always remain, the happiest day of my life. The fare of those in the cells was the ordinary ration dealt out to prisoners—a small piece of poor corn bread, a snall piece of poorer meat, and about half a pint of wormy beans or rice daily. There was scarcely a day passed that I did not obtain food beside that issued by the rebel authorities. Yet it required nearly a year after my release for the renewal of my usual health and strength. I forgot to mention that at time of my capture I was robbed of my watch and money; yet while a prisoner I expended $300 in confederate money for victuals and gave $250 to friends. Our officers frequently managed to raise money in some way, and thereby procured extra food and clothing; but this was usually impossible for the enlisted men, hence the great mortality among them. Major Turner was first, and Dick Turner second in command of Libby at that time. Although very hard and gloomy at the time, the lapse of nearly three years has somewhat toned down the reminiscences of prison life, and I am scarcely fitted now to give a graphic description of the very disagreeable things which I saw and a part of which I experienced.

Late Captain Company C, First Rhode Island Cavalry.

Edward B. Myers, of Providence, Rhode Island.

I was a sergeant of Company D, First Rhode Island cavalry, and was twice a prisoner in the hands of the rebels. My statement, if carried out in detail, would be the same as thousands of others—” a tale of studied abuse and starvation.” The quarters assigned to prisoners at Belle Isle and Libby were notoriously bad. Tim miserable rations consisted of three-fourths of a pound of bread, accompanied by a wretched mixture dignified by the name of soup, made of spoiled bacon and wormy cow peas. As a change, we were deprived of those named, and had none in their stead—the rebel officers assigning as a reason, “that the prisoners tore their tents.” I could state many instances of most wicked barbarity. I will speak of myself I was shot at, and barely escaped death for looking out of the window at Libby. The quarters at Belle Isle were totally insufficient for the number of men confined. Many die from exposure when shelter could have been furnished, if the authorities chose to do so.

PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND, September 14, 1867.

Linus H. Little, of Hampstead, New Hampshire.

I was a private in Company E Eleventh New Hampshire volunteers; was captured at Petersburg, July 30 1864, and was taken to Danville, Virginia. We were kept there nearly seven months in an old tobacco warehouse, with the windows all broken out, and no means of keeping warm. Our rations were composed of cob-meal, sometimes salted, at others with no salt. This was very imperfectly cooked. They gave a piece about three inches square each day. We were not allowed to look out of the windows. They shot those who attempted to. Of sixty-four negroes confined there but four lived through their imprisonment. Our condition was wretched beyond description. Our sufferings cannot be told. My brother, Henry C. Little, of the same company and regiment, was captured near Petersburg, the 30th of September, 1864. He was taken to Salisbury, North Carolina, and kept in a field with no shelter of any kind. His food was the same as I received. He was kept in this manner for five months. He lived but ten days after he was released.

HAMPSTEAD, NEW HAMPSHIRE, November 26, 1867.

George J. Hull, Fairfield, Vermont.

I was a private of First Vermont vo1unteers Was captured at Brandy Station, Virginia. Was a prisoner for fourteen months Was confined in Richmond, Belle Isle, Andersonville, and Florence. It would be impossible for me to give a detailed account of our treatment. I can only give a few items as specimens. At the tobacco warehouse in Richmond I have seen men shot for looking out of the windows. When I was moved to Belle Isle it was cold, wet, and muddy in the winter. Shelter was provided for only a portion of the men. Many perished from the exposure. The dead were taken outside and allowed to remain for several days. I have seen the bodies torn and eaten by the hogs. A dog belonging to a lieutenant in charge of us got into the camp and was speedily killed and part of it cooked and eaten. The man who did it was discovered and forced to eat the remainder of it raw. We were sent to Audersonville in box cars so closely crowded that we could not even lie down. It was a common thing to see from one hundred to two hundred men at a time awaiting burial. It was also common for Wirz to withhold the rations for forty-eight hours, and then try to get the men to take the oath of allegiance to the confederacy.

FAIRFIELD, VERMONT, December 27, 1867.

Eugene C. Sleeper, Tunbridge, Vermont.

I was a private in Company H Second Vermont volunteers. Was captured near Warrenton Virginia, on the ‘26th of October, 1863, by Mosby. I was taken with several others. For refusing to lead a mule, a lieutenant of Mosby’s struck me on the head. with the butt of his revolver. On the route to Richmond we were marched sixty miles without sleep or rations. On our arrival at Richmond we were taken to Libby Prison, where we were confined for ten days, our rations being one-half pound of bread, and one-half pound of boiled beef. We were searched for money; from one of our number they took $50. From Libby we were removed to Belle Isle. Here we remained fifteen days, without blankets or shelter, the weather being extremely cold. The ration was one pound of corn bread, and one-quarter pound of meat, or in lieu of meat wormy pea soup. One day while they were counting the prisoners a man was crowded against the guard by a man behind him. Sergeant Rite struck him with a club which he always carried, causing his death in a few hours. I saw three dead bodies of our prisoners nearly eaten up by hogs. One time the guard shot a man for stealing his blanket, killing one and wounding two others. The number of men confined on Belle Isle at this time was about three thousand; of this number fifty were frozen to death during the winter. In February we were taken to Andersonville, where, on the 1st of May, there were about fifteen hundred. The “dead-line” was about eighteen feet inside of the stockade. The ground soon became so crowded that men had to camp near this line. One man camped close to the line reached over it to get his shirt, which had blown there. He was shot by the guard. The meal issued was extremely coarse and unwholesome; this, together with the exposure to hot sun by day, and damp by night soon brought about diarrhea, scurvy, and other diseases. There were packs of bloodhounds kept to capture escaping prisoners. One man escaped at 1 o’clock in the morning and had gone but. a few rods before the hounds forced him to climb a small tree. The guards shook him down and allowed the dogs to tear him to pieces. It was so close to the camp that the shrieks of the wretched man could be plainly heard. Thos who escaped and were recaptured were subjected to the most brutal and inhuman treatment. On one occasion, fifteen being chained together, one of them died in the chains, and was not removed for twelve hours. It would be but a few hours after a prisoner died before he would be covered with maggots. I have seen maggots crawling from the mouth and ears of men who were not yet dead. Prisoners dying in the stockade were allowed to remain until there were sometimes one hundred and fifty awaiting burial, One day a man called to Wirz outside the gate several times, when Wirz ordered the guard to shoot the man, which he did, killing him instantly. The instances herein given are but samples of general treatment which no man can describe.

TUNBRIDGE, VERMONT, October 12, 1867.

Ezra D. Carpenter, of Putnam, Connecticut.

I was second lieutenant Company B, Eighteenth regiment Connecticut volunteers; was captured at Winchester, Virginia, June 15, 1863; was taken to Richmond. Our ration on the way was flour and pork, which we hail no means of cooking. At Libby fresh meat and a little rice or beans and wheat bread was issued. The quantity was so small that hunger continually gnawed at my vitals until I succeeded in getting some money. Those who were not so fortunate would grab at refuse matter thrown away, such as bones, 511(1 would suck them in hopes to obtain nourishment. Some enlisted men in a room under us seemed to be starving; we threw down some bread through a hole in the floor. It was shocking to see those famished men jump and spring over each other struggling for a morsel of the bread like wild animals in a cage. Our ration changed before we left Libby, corn bread was issued in the place of wheat, and for some time we had no meat. We were not allowed to go near the windows. An Ohio officer was shot through the head four feet from one. Was sent from Libby to Macon, Georgia. Our food was miserable; when we got any meat it was more or less spoiled. While at- Macon an officer was shot on the way to the sink. He was more than a rod from the dead line. We were sent to Savannah, where we were treated better; from Savannah to Charleston, where we were confined in the jail yard without shelter. From Charleston we were sent to Columbia, South Carolina, where we were confined in an open field without shelter or means to cook the scanty food given us. We were kept in this condition for two months. In December we were exposed to the cold rains and frost, often wet to the skin, no shelter or blankets, many having but part suits of clothes, bare-headed, and bare-footed. No one can describe our suffering and anguish in those prisons, where the rule seemed to be to die. I will add if I had not found means of raising money to purchase food, I would not now be alive to make this statement.

PUTNAM, CONNECTICUT, October 27, 1867.

Francis E. Weed, of New Canaan, Connecticut.

I was first sergeant Company B, Thirteenth Connecticut volunteers; was captured at Winchester, Virginia, September 19th, 1864. Our treatment on the roundabout march to Richmond was almost incredible. Some of the men were without shoes; their feet became so swollen or cut up on the rough roads that they had to be forced along at the point of the bayonet. We were put into Libby Prison and every man searched thoroughly for money, &c. If any was found the criminal was shockingly abused for not giving it up when ordered; blankets, hats, shoes, and such things having been taken before. We were sent from Libby to Belle Isle. While there several were killed by the guards. We were sent to Salisbury, North Carolina. Our rations were miserable iii quality and not sufficient in quantity to allay the cravings of hunger. Meat was seldom issued and generally covered with maggots. When we had fresh meat it was cooked with everything that could be eaten, head, eyes, ears, lights, &c. The tripe and other entrails were brought into the stockade without being cleaned, and left for the men to light over like a pack of wolves. For two months we were without sufficient water to drink. There were quite a number killed here by the guards at Belle Isle. One colored prisoner was shot by a guard who said he wanted to kill a “black Yankee ;“ this is but one of many instances that might be given. Sometimes they would shoot into the stockade all night, at intervals. On the 25th of November, starved to desperation, we made an unsuccessful attempt to break out of the stockade, which cost us the loss of seventy killed and wounded. They would keep all rations from us for two or three days, then they would try to recruit for the rebel army, offering, as an inducement, full rations, warm clothing, and $100 confederate money. They obtained but few recruits, comparatively most pf the men preferring to leave the stockade in the dead-cart to liberty on such terms.

NEW CANANN, CONNECTICUT, November 27, 1867.

Patrick Moncie, of New Hares, Connecticut.

I was a private in Company K, Twelfth Connecticut volunteers; was taken prisoner at Cedar Creek, Virginia, 1864. Was sent to Richmond, kept four days and then sent to Salisbury, South Carolina, where I remained five months. My treatment was terribly cruel; not only was this the case with me but with all ray comrades. Many were actually starved to death, and numbers died from exposure. Many of us had to lay upon the bare ground without blankets or shelter to protect us from snow and rain. Many laid down at night who never saw the light of another day. Pen cannot describe
Our sufferings.

I was a corporal of Company C, Seventh New York artillery. Was taken prisoner May 19. 1864, near Spottsylvania Court House, Virginia. I had four men with me when captured; they all (bed in the rebel prisons. I was a prisoner for six months and ten days. We were marched three (lays without rations, when a quart of meal was issued, but no salt or cooking utensils. At Gordonsville there were some four hundred, captured from different parts of our lines. We were marched to the provost marshal’s, where we were robbed of everything, and then started for Andersonville, where I saw men shot without cause, and have seen escaped prisoners returned terribly torn by bloodhounds used in their recapture. The rations issued to us were not sufficient to stay the cravings of hunger, and of a quality perfectly disgusting. From Andersonville I was sent to Charleston, and from thence to Florence, South Caro1ina where I suffered more than at any other prison, for it had grown quite cold. Many of us were barefooted and bareheaded. Our rations were very irregularly issued, and were often withheld a number of days at a time. I have seen numbers of the men chilled to death at this prison; cruelty and personal abuse the same as at the other prisons I was in.
