nsught else save desperation dirt and Confederate scrip
In the main their behavior commendable, save
In the connections have heretofore mentioned. They

Their entire transportation train did not number over
one hundred and hfty wagons They brought but little
provisions With them, depending, as they said uron
getting q supply from the country through which they
are passing. they looked half starved and famished
and literally devoured the stock Of Subsistence stores Of
the city leaving the inhabitants many cases destitute
OF = decent family They profess a determination
to deal fairly with the Maryland people, g., pay for
what they get their moneybut threaten TO waste
the fat of the land Pennsylvania and other Northern
states to mako dcsolaton wherever they no in
revenge for our invasion Of Virginia.
