At present nothing indicates that his
death will ensue from it.
The man lying beside this one is his
brother, and not nearly of such pow
erful physique. This one is wounded
by a. ball passing through the middle
third of the right thigh. Another
ball struck the centre of the upper
law, and broke down half of the left
maxillary. Neither of these wounds
in themselves are necessarily mortal.
In another room, about ten yards
from the first, lay the third man by far
the finest looking man of the whole
gang, and apparently the youngest.
He is six feet two inches in height,
we'll proportioned, with brawny arms
and thick neck. His features are we'll

is the heavy projecting capacious brow,
such as phrenologists would give to
men of wonderful mathematical abili-
ty. This man has two wounds, one an
old one, or rather of some days stand
ing. and supposed to be the result Of
Wheeler's carbine practice in North
field. 1t is the disarticulation of the
right elbow joint. His other wound is
from ball entering the right side,
just below the point of the scapula,
tracing the sixth rib and coming out
near the nipple. This is a mere flesh
wound and not at all dangerous.
The reporter interviewed this man,
and although he hardly liked to probe
the sore wound of mental sui
fering, still he overcame all compunc-
tions in his zeal to satisfy the public
craving. The first thing which struck
the reporter was the

he seemed reluctant to talk much, and
when the reporter asked him his name
he said it was George Huddleston, to

But by chatting Familiarity with him
the reporter elected many facts of in
torcot. He spoke Of the Mortified es
capade and said it was the first of the
kind he ever was in. When the re-
porter spoke Of his wound in the right
arm and asked if it was not from the
carbire of Wheeler, he stated that il
was and his arm dropped on his leg as
described then, which led to the belief
that he was wounded in the leg.
In speaking of the dead men al

some uncertainty whether the bie
man was Miller or Pits. The prisoner
