George w. Logan of Salem, Va.
who came to the u. G.. V. reunion as
delegate from Hop Dyole Camp, tells
an interesting story illustrative of the
belief Of Union soldiers that many
women disguised themselves as men
and fought In the Confederate army.
Mr.. Logan was only seventeen years
old when he was taken prisoner In an
attack on Fort Cannon. He was very
slender. but deepchested. and very
girlish in his appearance. being lair,
with high color and wearing his long.
llght.brown hair brushed straight
back and impaired. Taken to Point
Lookout and later to city Point. he
attracted the attention Of an officer OF
the escort. The Federal officer treat.
ed the youthful prisoner with as
much courtesy as circumstances per.
mitted. frequently conyersin5 with
him.
One day the officer asked to be told
the truth regarding the belief among
Federal soldiers that many women
were serving In the Confederate
army. some OF them being types OF
the best Of southern womanhood. Mr..
Logan said II was not true. but he had
heard, in common with others. that
a few women had so served.
II believe this was So" said Mr..
Logan yesterday. but do not think
there were more than a dozen such
instances, and have no positive
knowledge of any"
The Federal officer was thoughtful
for a while after the conversation re.
ferred to, and then urged the prisoner
to forswear the Confederacy and 60
to the officers Pennsylvania home. Il
can arrange IL without trouble" said
the officer, land my people will re-
ceive you and treat you like one OF
the family" A dozen times or more
the officer urged the point.
Il subsequently learned" said Mr.
Logan. that he believed was a girl
and that II was for that reason that
hs wanted me to go to Pennsylvania.
He never intimnted such q reason Ia
me, but my information came In a
way that seemed to be reliable. and
then II was that understood why. be
