GENERAL pnYoR's CAPTURE.
The story OF q. A. X. Man VINO "ss AN
Eyc-wiinsss to the Occurrence

Petersburg. Va, Sept 29.-Special.-
Among the visitors Of the Grand Army Oh
the Republic who came to visit the battle
fields in front of Petersburg was Comrade
r. Il. Brown, Of Post No. II. Hayerhill,
Mass. He says that at the tiine OF the
contura of General Roger A. Pryor he
Brown was n lieutenant in Massachu--
setts regiment, which was stationed
somewhere near Fort Sedgwick, in Prince
George county. He was the officer OF
the guard on the day of the capture OF
General Pryor. and gives this account
of the occurrence:
Captain ii. O. Dudley, of Manchester.
y. H.. officer of the day, was going the
rounds, and when he got TO Lieutenant
Browns post his attention was attracted
by Confederate soldier between the lines
waving q newspaper, which was the
usual signal of a desire to exchange pa
pers. Captain Dudley put his tield-gasses
TO his eyes. and remarked that that
seemed to be a Rebel officer, and he
thought he would capture him in revenge
for the capture of Captain Adams,
Federal officer who had been taken
prisoner by the Confederates about
week before, while exchanging papers.
Captain Dudley passed along the lines,
and on completing his rounds and re-
turning TO Lieutenant Browns post, ne
found that the Confederate was still
waving his paper for exchange. He
then concluded that he would capture
him. He gave orders to his men on duty
that if he raised his right hand they were
10 fire on Pryor. He then went out to
ravine between the two lines, and Pryor
approached to the other side Of the ra-
vine. Dudley said: IF you wish to ex-
change papers, come across the rayine."
Pryor said: Come into the ravine, and
| will meet you half way" Dudley in
sisted that if Pryor wished to exchange
papers, he should come across the rayine
to him. General Pryor then walked
across the rayine to where the Federal
officer was, and as he came up to him
the latter took Pryor's right hand in his
LETT, held 1t securely, and with his right
drew his revolver and pointed it TO
PryOr's breast, at the same time ordering
him TO surrender and march to the rear.
Pryor replied you have me in your
power, Captain, and | am obliged to
surrender" He was then taken into the
works. passing Immediately by Lieuten-
ant Brown.
Lieutenant Brown states that as he
and Dudley were marching through Pc
tersburg on the day Of the evacuation
they saw General Pryor standing at the
front door of his residence on Washing
ton street. which house is now occupied
by Mr. II. l. Arringon. Their regiment
halted in the neighborhood Of the house
for rest, and they went no into the
porch and shook hands with General
Pryor. and had a short conversation with
him. Lieutenant Brown says that Captain
Dudley now has in his possession a sabre.
pistol and belt taken from General Pryor
at the time of his capture, which he
prizes very highly.
