Methodist Minister.s visit % AndersonriEIa.

To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
Some time ago yon Published several articles
about the good Catholic priest at Andersonyille
every word Of which was true. l have seen
him kneeling on the filthy ground, over a dying
comrade, when the gray body-lice were slowly
chasing each other up the skirt of his black
coat. There was another minister, however,
who paid us a short visit one hot day-the last
of July or first of August--of that dreadful
summer at Andersonville took him to be a
genuine old Georgia Southern Methodist. He
mounted small box and preached us short
sermon. | do not recolleet his text, but the
discourse was about religious living. At the
(close of his remarks he sang that immortal
hymn commencing
How tedious and tasteless the hours
When Jesus no longer see.
And prisons would palaces prove, DC.
At the conclusion OF the hy;1n many went
forward, anxiously asking about the prospect of
an exchange, but he would not or could not
give us any consolation. Wandered about the
stockade that afternoon more disconsolate than
ever before. / thought / might be reconeiled
to the grave, but ] could not see how the Lord
himself was to reconcile ME to that den Of filth,
starvation and death Perhaps some other
prison eomrade could tell us more about this
preacher. My stomach was too weak at that
time TO swallow very much Georgia religion.
