came down from Chattanooga with:
several hundred prisoners en- route for
Camp Chase, Ohio. The guard VISA.
to go through with the prisoners All
the boys were counting the trip as
good as a furlough When the COZ

guards were in high spirits and there.
was a great deal of jollity.
Contrary to orders and custom the
men of the marching column caught
step and went swinging across the
bridge to a lively air whistled by
those in advance. Warnings were
shouted by sentinels and officers, but
too late The bridge parted and scores
of Unionists and Confederates went
into the river. There was great con-
fusion, but boats were at hand and
most of the men were rescued. Many
of. the guards dropped their rifles and
swan to shore. But one large, fine
looking fellow went head first into the
mass of floating timbers. He went
down with his gun at a right shoulder
shift
HE came up shortly, but I was
startled to see that he still carried
his gun at right shoulder shift and
that he made no motion with his feet
or hands. He went down again in a
swirl of water, lurching to one side,
but making no struggle to save him
self. l ordered the men in the boats
to watch for him. One of the watch
ers declared that the body came
nearly to the surface with. gun still
at right shoulder shift and then was
carried down stream by the current.
"a few days later soldier, with
clothing none the worse for wear,
came trudging into camp with gun at
right shoulder shift l was officer of
the day, and he was brought to me.
He was the man who went head first
into the river the day the pontoon
bridge parted, and who came up and
went down with gun at right Shout
der shift. He seemed to me uncanny
and ghostlike, but he was ready to
answer questions. He remembered
the breaking OF. the bridge, but remem-
bered nothing after his plunge into
the water.
when consciousness returned he
was in a negro cabin, some miles be-
low Bridgeport. The woman washed
and ironed his clothes and the man
cared for him until he was able to
walk back to camp. This was the
story. He had evidently been struck
on the head as he went into the water,
and he was not in his right mind.
He insisted that he did not belong to
the regiment that was guarding the
prisoners, and declined to talk on that
point. He was not himself for sew
eral months, but l never knew until
after the war that for all those months
he thought he was some other per-
son.-Chicago Inter Ocean.
