hon OF our unfortunate friend in Ken
lucky"
eff by headquarters you mean Rich
mond, think 1 can assure you that the
trial and conviction OF Campbell are al
ready known there"
"Why do you think sol"
Because, Captain Wine, the northern
papers have reported it, and that means
that it is known to the authorities in
Richmond. But do as you please. If
the man dies it will be satisfaction to
know that / have tried, to the best of
my ability, to save him."
When Captain Forbes returned to his
cousin he carried with him writing ma
terials, and he surprised that young gem
tleman by insisting that he should then
and there write out the particulars of
his capture on the sixteenth of Septem-
Der previous and emphasize the part
played in it by edward Campbell, a
captain in the so called Partisan RAN
gers"
"Wait till we escape or are ex-
changed" said Bowen. "And then |
can't see why you should care to have
the story in writing when ! have told it
to YOU"
81 have good reasons for what am
doing, and you will say so at the proper
time. Trust me, and do as say" said
Captain Forbes in his forceful way, and
his perplexed cousin, after protesting his
dislike for mysteries, obeyed him.
AS soon as the report was finished the
captain was again conducted to Captain
Wine, and in his presence he Endorsed and
signed the writing, asking that certi-
fed copy be sent through to Kentucky
and the original to Washington.
The Confederate promised to comply.
and that evening the report was for
warded to Richmond. At noon the next
day Captain Wine sent for Forbes. The
Confederate was evidently nervous, for
before he could command his voice he
looked for some time at an official look
ing paper that trembled in his hands.
Then he coughed and said:
"When l said yesterday that some OF
your people would be held as hostage
for Captain Campbell, had no idea OF
suggesting it, nor did do SO. | have
just received this order from General
Winder, who is in charge of all our
military prisons, and he commands that
Howard Forbes, a captain of the Second
Kentucky Mounted Rifles in the Federal
service, be at once separated from the
other prisoners and held as a hostage
for Captain Edward Campbell, Of the
Confederate army, now under sentence
of death at Camp Dick Robinson, Ken.

Captain Howard Forbes was not at all
alarmed at being held as a hostage for
Captain Edward Campbell; indeed, he
would have volunteered to fill such a
position if assured that it would save
the life of the unfortunate man at Camp
Dick Robinson till his case could be re-
viewed. He was taken from the ware
house, and Captain Wine, who accom-
panied him, said:
''We have no Jail in Danville, so that,
till hear from Richmond, / shall have
to keep you under close guard at the
hotel where am stopping"
laughed Captain Forbes; sit can't be
much worse than the tobacco warehouse,
and then if you can stand it don't think
it will kill me-
eff it wasn't that you are hostage"
said the Confederate, 81 would parole
you, so that you could leave the hotel
and look around. Now that l know
your story, I'll confess that l am
ashamed of the whole affair. But let
us go in and have drink, and if there
is anything can do to make your stay
more comfortable, let me know"
They crossed the main street, ankle
deep with mud, and entered the bar of
the cherries tavern. The place was
crowded with soldiers, and although
surprised at the presence of a Union
officer, not a word was said to hurt his
feelings. After drink of peach brandy
with the Confederate, Captain Forbes
was conducted to second floor and to a
room, before the door of which a guard
was stationed. The room contained two
beds, one of which was Captain Wines
There were pipes and tobacco, the latest
Richmond papers and a lot of paper
covered novels on the table.
"Make yourself at home here, captain
and if you think that peach brandy is
not too new, you will find a jug in this
closet" And the Confederate indicated
the place and went out.
eff this is being hostage" thought
Captain Forbes, as he Lit pipe, picked
up paper and threw himself on bed
81 wish all our boys in southern prisons
were hostages"
About four o'clock in the afternoon a
black boy came in bringing with him
Captain Wines compliments and that
days Richmond papers. Every column
was packed with war news, more or less
reliable, but in the main favorable to the
cause Of the south. President Davis
had just returned from visit to Bragg's
array besieging Chattanooga, and he
brought the cheering news that within a
few days Grants legions would be worse
beaten than Rosecrans' had been at
Chickamauga, and that the war in the
west would be instantly ended. Long
street held Burnside by the throat at
Knoxville, and the surrender of that
place was hourly expected. Lees veter-
ans, entirely Indifferent to the move
ments of Meade, were preparing winter
quarters along the Rapidan and Kappa
hammock. And SO, throughout the south,
everything looked bright and promising
