This Card is CHANGED
Concerning Meade's Capture.

Editor Times: Ny attention has lust
been directed to an article that appeared
IN Your edition of the 18th instant with ref
erence TO the capture OF Admiral Meade
by Gen. 10 Shelby.
"Old JO' was q most gallant rebel Of
ficer, but he, like many others, is liable
to make historical errors
The statement Relates that 10 Shelby
told reporter of the Kansas City Times
and cOterie Of deputy United States mar
shals the following story: Il know this
fellow Meade, that is in such bad cdor
with the administration at present. /
captured the @unbOat Queen Cirv in 1863
The captain of the boat was named Hickey
ana this fellow Meade was lieutenant and
the next in command We kept our prjs-
oners and tried to work an exchange at
Helena, Ark. l couldn't work an exchange
and We let the whole crowd go. / after
ward recc ived letter from Admiral
Meade thanking me FOR the way / treated
nm While he was my prisoner"
Deg leave to correct the itealistIC state
ment Just referred to. The gunboat Queen
City that 10 Shelby captured on the White
River was a fourth-rate vessel, and. on
that occasion was commanded by Acting
Volunteer Lieut.. George W. Brown, and
its executive officer was Acting Volun-
teer Ensign George V. Meade, not the pres
ent Admiral Meade. 10 Shelby has con-
founded the names of the wo officers
l served in the United States Mississippi
River naval squadron, on the flagshiDs
Benton and Tempest, and was frequently
IN the presence of its various officers by
reason of the frequent reports made by
them in person 10 the admiral command
ing, and made the acquaintance of both
OF the Meades dur ing the winter or
1862 and '83
During the winter of 1865 and SO
Acting Ensign George V Meade and nv
self Were attached to the o. s. Monitor
Catawba, in ordinary, at the Mound City,
Ill, navy yard, under the command OF
then Commodore SChenck, AID Ensign
Meade related during said period the cir
cumstances Of his mot Admiral Mcade'sl
capture by 10 Shelby.
1 am frank to say that 1 do not believe
for moment that either OF the 8leades
would have written 4 letter OF thanks for
kind treatment to any person who hattled
against the flag OF their country, under
the circumstances.

swore ont before Magistrate Robert w.

Hengst was the guilty person. There was
no ground for this, says Mr. Hengst, and
after a short time in the police station he
