i've prisoners while they went to secure the
new game. Knowing two ladies Jealous for
the cause, they prevailed upon them to furnish
supper for the captives and to delay 1t until
their return. There were at the house two
men who had been charged with having taken
the Federal oath of allegiance. The captured
horses and arms were secreted. with the excep-
ton Of two carbines. The carbines were given
to the suspected men and they were ordered
to stand guard 1t the door. They were frankly
told Of the suspicion against them and that II
they allowed the prisoners to escape they
would be sent to Castle Thunder. The scouts
then followed the boy to his uncle's gate. One

other went around to the rear. The first to
