Rescued From IsnpsRdinE Death by a

Rescued From dinE peRth5by "a

On the battlefield of Anttetan Mr..

ginia, but tie gallant young soldier
gave no promise as to what he world
De likely to 90, and the Very first night
after Ice crossed the Potomac lie was
again IN Lees camp and brought back
important information to General Nc
Clellan.
Again he returned Z enteredx the
Confederate lines. and when he did not
report after a week 1t was assumed
tina he had been captured and would
probably be executed as q spy. He
had been captured, was tried and con
danned as q spy and sentenced TO be
executed. but be was saved by q clever
newspaper device determined upon
after d conference in Philadelphia be-
tween President ]. Edgar Thomson of
the Pennsylvania railroad, Colonel Scott
and Mr.. McClure. Thomson took special
interest in Palmer, as he had been his
secretary, and was much attached to
him.
1t was decided that Washington dis
patches should be prepared for all of
the Philadelphia morning papers an
nouncing the arrival at the capital of
Captain William j. Palmer. stating in
what particular ines Of the Enemy he
had operated, and adding that he had
brought much important information
that could not be given to the public
at that time. These dispatches APP
peared next morning in all the Phila-
deiphia papers, prominently displayed,
and of course reached the southern
lines within forty-eight hours
The result was that Captain Palner's
identity was neve established in Rich
mond, and his execution was thus sus-
pended. In u little while, when some
prisoners had been exchanged, there
was q vacancy made in the list of the
exchanged men by death. Palncr's
friends had him take the place and
name of the lead soldier, and he thus
escaped and returned to the service.
