fully realized, and the possibilities of n retreat

quickly through my mind even the horrors OF

cellar or basement and go down in search of
something to eat. We had noticed few Wesks
before some barrels being put in there, and
about IL o'clock that night We commenced to
take up the floor, and with the aid of piece of
an ak we succeeded in getting to the cellar in a
short time We were, from the result of gum
shot wounds, both walking on crutches.
We found some barrels in the cellar, and, after
smelling around the chimes OF one of the bar
rels we detected the smell of the Hour it con-
tanned, which set US both frantic, for we had
not tasted wheat bread for many months. AS
we rolled the barrel to the bottom of the stairs
we were very much frightened by noise at
the back end of the basement, being afraid that
we had been apprehended in our undertaking.
We were too weak to endure cell two by six
feet for six or eight weeks. 1t may be rats, we
thought; but it was Strengths men tunneling
out
We could not lift the barrel, so we called on
Lieut.. Massie, who had only slight wound,
and had only been in prison two days, and by
his aid we succeeded in getting the flour up
stairs into the room. What would we do with
it now was the question, for we could not con
ceal the whole barrel of -four, consequently we
decided to divide it among the inmates. We
commenced at the north end OF the room and
woke them up two at q time. Many of them
would tear off their shirtsleeves. tie up one end
and Gil them with -four. After it was divided.
we broke up the staves put them in the stove
and burned them, and washed up every parti-
Gle of -four that happened to drop on the floor.
It was o'clock a. IN. when we had orr work
completed Flour at that time was worth sew
eral hundred dollars in Confederate money in
Richmond.
Now, if Lieut Massie Capt Calhoun or any
of the prisoners of war who shared the barrel
of flour should see this, let US hear from them.

soil and climate. says that he does not think
any State in the Union can compare with Kan
sas for mild climate. fruit, wheat and all the
grains. Sumner, Harper and Barber are es-
pecially good farming Counties, and cannot be
beat in the world, and he does not think any
old comrade who desires desirable locality in
which to live would regret giving either Of
these three Counties visit. Although the
wheat crops have been excellent for the last
four years, yet the prospect for the present sea-
sou is better than ever before, and unless some
unforeseen accident occurs. the yield will be
larger than ever in the history of Kansas, and
there will be plenty of fruit to spare.
